50 Best Sushi Bars near Foothill Ranch

“The freshest fish I’ve ever had in my life. Absolutely fantastic. Is ten stars a thing? This place deserves that many. Epic food. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️🙌🏽“

“Their Omakase is one of the best.“

“The food is amazing!!! Knee is the best waitress ever👏👏👏👏🥰🥰“

“Oh My Sushi is a hidden gem tucked away in a strip mall in Laguna Niguel. They serve incredibly fresh fish, beautifully presented in both classic and creative sushi rolls. The Toro Tasting is amazing. The décor is modern and inviting, the drinks are inventive, and the dessert selection is a sweet surprise. Their sake list is impressive — don’t miss the sake flight, it’s a must-try!”“

“Fantastic! Toshi-san is the real deal. If you want an authentic sushi experience in Laguna Beach, true to its origins, plus a little SoCal flair, this is the spot. Take it from someone who lived in Japan for over seven years and is tough to impress when it comes to sushi. Also lived the innovative appetizers like the crispy rice.“

“Fresh fish expertly prepared by friendly chef with equally cheerful service staff! We will be back“

“Surprisingly excellent and interesting sushi and sashimi. We wandered in here for lunch one day and sat outside in the patio which was nice. The service was good. Price is a bit higher but you totally get what you pay for. The quality, flavors, and quantity were all great. We really enjoyed it and if we lived closer would come often.“

“We love it here! Super good food and nice employees. We went the other night for dinner. My husband got the chicken and beef teriyaki plate with white rice, California rolls, edamame, tempura, and Crunchyroll. They put a great variety of items on the dinner plates and it's so delicious! I got the Chashu ramen. It was delish. It was like a bowl of comfort. The only thing I would suggest is on the ramen there are green onions on top and I wish that they were chopped up instead of in strips. I feel like I always have a hard time chewing strips of green onion, but other than that, everything is so good.“

“By far the best Sushi place in the area! There are two equally good sushi places further away, but I cannot recall any that is better! Food is always delicious, fresh, and very friendly and fast. You can tell that the chef is very experienced and knows how to deliver the experience! I feel lucky to live really close! :)“

“It's one of me and my fiancé Denise's favorite place. We go there all the time and it's always awesome. I highly recommend it to anyone that lives in the area. We absolutely love it and they take care of you like family.“

“Busy. There was a line before the 11 am open time and there are very few tables in this tiny space. If you are physically disabled maybe call ahead if they can accomidate you.
The food is good. The takoyaki is amazing and the cutlets are crispy. Large portions so come hungry. Went a bit out of my way to come here but absolutely worth it.“

“Restaurant is clean and open. Their sashimi bento box lunch special [includes miso soup, cucumber salad, tempura, half CA roll, and seven slices of quality sashimi served with real wasabi!] is the best and it was only $20. Thank you to sushi chef Obi for his recommendation. Now if they only served Kuronama or any other Japanese dark beer, they'd be perfect.“

“Portion sizes for a sushi restaurant are double than what's typically served at other sushi restaurants. It was really surprising because I went in without knowing what the food was really like and I ended up getting this mountain of fresh sashimi! The sushi rice was seasoned well and the fish tasted great. They gave me a dipping sauce which I assume was a mix of yuzu, soy sauce, and sesame oil. I loved it more than regular soy sauce for my sashimi. My husband ordered a specialty roll and it was basically a futomaki, but it spanned the entire length of his torso.

I would absolutely recommend this place for its quality, excellent portion size for its price, relaxing atmosphere, and quick service.“

“My family and I loooove this place. The food is amazing, great prices and the people are amazing. I honestly don’t have anything negative to say about it. It’s my 5 year old favorite restaurant since he was a toddler and every time we are here we know we are going to have a warm welcome.“

“The salmon roll and beef miso soup were good. The salmon seemed very fresh and had a good texture. There was a decent amount of beef in the soup.
The wait staff seemed very eager for us to order and also the clear the table while we were still eating. I think it would be better if they were a little more patient“

“Great Sushi and lots of fun.“

“Best Sushi ever, have been there 4 times in two weeks of vacation with friends and family. Great & friendly staff, too!“

“If you’re looking for your new favorite sushi spot—this is it.

I’ve been coming to Tru Sushi N Fish for almost 2 years now, and it’s consistently amazing. The fish is incredibly fresh, the flavors are clean and authentic, and everything on the menu is prepared with real care and respect for traditional sushi culture.

It’s not just the food that keeps me coming back—it’s the experience. The vibe is perfect for a date night, a catch-up with friends, or even a solo sushi fix. The space is cozy, stylish, and never feels rushed or overwhelming.

And let’s talk about the people—Eurie and the whole staff are absolute gems. They’re friendly, welcoming, and genuinely make you feel like a regular from day one.

Tru isn’t just a sushi restaurant—it’s a place you’ll want to keep coming back to.
Whether you’re a sushi connoisseur or just discovering it, you’ll leave happy, full, and already planning your next visit.

🔥 10/10 highly recommend—don’t sleep on this spot!“

“They gave us as much sushi as we wanted and didn’t blink an eye when we ordered 30+ rolls. I also didn’t get AYCE sushi and they were super accommodating as long as I didn’t eat any bites of the others food. Such a great experience, would recommend!“

“The Ladyfingers are divine and no one else has them on the menu that I've ever seen. The Chefs are top notch and we've never been disappointed.“

“Good food and friendly service“

“We sat at the sushi bar and Joe-san was our sushi chef. He was fast, efficient and everything was tasty. We chose the Oh My God roll towards the end and honestly folks? It is OMG spectacular! And so was the Queen Imperial with yellowtail and mango. Great service!!!“

“We ate dinner here last night. Probably the best sushi we’ve ever had. The staff was great as well.“

“I visited this sushi spot yesterday and was really impressed. The sushi was incredibly tasty, and the portions of sashimi were perfect. So many other sushi places are stingy with their portions while still charging a premium, but this place strikes the right balance. Keep up the great work! I will definitely be back!“

“A Beachside Sushi Gem! My girlfriend and I recently visited this sushi spot by the beach, and we were absolutely blown away. From the moment we arrived, everything felt like a dream — the ocean breeze, the sound of the waves, and the beautiful view perfectly set the mood for a relaxing, romantic late lunch. The sushi was incredible — fresh, flavorful, and beautifully presented. You can really tell the chefs care about the quality and creativity behind each dish. We tried a variety of rolls and every single one was a hit, but the Sunshine roll was unforgettable. The service was just as great — friendly, attentive, and chill, never rushed. It really added to the whole experience. We left full, happy, and already planning our next visit. If you're looking for top-tier sushi with a stunning beach vibe, this place is a must!“

“Cool little hole in the wall place down the street from my parents place. Got the bento box and it hit the spot. I don't live there, but if you are looking for a random place, this isn't a bad place to check out. Only dig is they close early. Probably because they are in the back spot of a complex. So staying open late would be tough if folks don't know you are there.“

“Stopped by this Japanese restaurant in lake forest on a Friday night with family. We sat down promptly and the service was fast. Tried an assortment of sushi and hand rolls edamame cucumber salad and their spicy beef bowl. All gray and fresh although the the spicy beef bowl wasn’t spicy and was more sweet than anything else. Overall a solid 4.“

“Pretty good ramen and sushi. Our group ordered the tonkotsu black and spicy miso ramen. Both were very flavorful and filling. We also order the salmon bento box and chicken katsu with curry. Both the bento boxes were good, but katsu seemed a little dry. It's better with the curry, but I wouldn't order it again. The sushi was great. We got the baked salmon roll and crunch fire roll. Both were fresh and delicious! I would come back to try the other ramen.“

“Menu: Omakase Sushi and Sushi 9 pcs
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️☆ (4/5)

The sushi here is absolutely fresh and beautifully presented—each piece melts in your mouth and has a delicate, authentic flavor. The quality of the fish is outstanding, and the attention to detail makes every bite feel like a true omakase experience. The plate was vibrant and elegant, with garnishes that elevated the overall presentation.

However, the restaurant seems to be understaffed. There was only one waitress handling the entire floor. She did an excellent job—friendly, attentive, and very professional—but it’s clear she was stretched thin. Service took a little longer because of this, though her effort and attitude were commendable.

If the staffing issue gets resolved, this place would easily be a 5-star experience. Highly recommended for sushi lovers looking for fresh, high-quality dishes!“

“Best lunch bento box. Miso soup was very tasty. Spicy tuna roll was delicious!“

“First time eating here and it did not disappoint. I ordered the sexy roll and it was delicious 🤤 . A great combination of crunchy and spicy. I also ordered miso soup and so far one of my favorites , so savory definitely recommend this restaurant. Wonderful service, i will definitely come back.“

“This place is adorable. We've been here a few times now. Food is good and drinks are great. I mean who wouldn't like googly eyes on their sandwich bun and coconut drink?!“

“We came here to use a coupon we got in the mail for a BOGO tonkatsu bowl. We were told this item was not on the menu but we could order it. We decided to get this mystery item and it was delicious! The menu has a very large selection and is reasonably priced. Service was fast and friendly.“

“Love this lil place. Service is amazing and love the waitresses -they are always so friendly and welcoming! I really appreciate and am grateful they have a gluten free menu! It’s limited and wish they had more options but it’s so great because I don’t need to worry about getting sick from gluten! Not many sushi places have gluten free menus!“

“Most wondrous sushi! My wife and I popped in last weekend. First time visiting. We were warmly greeted and seated right away. Our server was so polite and friendly. The chefs waved from behind the sushi bar. Our beer and sake were tasty and the sushi dishes were delicious and just the right size. Love the atmosphere; we went for lunch and it was quiet, but I imagine it can be hustle bustle in the evening. Definitely recommended, check it out. 🍣“

“Great place! Hole in the wall with limited seating, but the food was fresh and delicious. Price was not much more than lower quality sushi restaurants.
it gets packed very quick, so reservations is recommended. We didn't have reservations and had to wait about 10-15 minutes.“

“I've been here dozens of times since I was a kid, and I am incredibly attached. the katsu chicken and udon are absolutely delicious. staff has always been helpful and friendly. I have a lot of good memories from this place. I hope they stay open forever <3“

“amazing atmosphere and food was absolutely delicious!!!“

“Siam Thai is a family owned establishment in my neighborhood with friendly ownership and conscientious service. My favorite dishes are the Crying Tiger Salad, Papaya Salad, and the Honey Duck. The individual ingredients are superior quality and spiciness levels are accurate to the requested amount. I prefer very low spice in order to taste each natural flavor. The Boba Tea bar is a newer addition and the drinks are decorative and well mixed- especially the Taro Milk Tea. This restaurant is part of my weekly dining out ritual.“

“La mejor comida de la área lo máximo“

“el sushi es bueno la comida de Alex es asquerosa“

“It is a very small restaurant with about 4 tables inside, 6 tables outside and a small bar. Do make a reservation as they fill up quickly! We sat outside in February but it was fine because they have lots of heaters! You can also get a partial view of the lake from their patio.The service is prompt and friendly and food is delicious.

Parking: Lots of free parking available in the plaza lot.“

“I ordered here for the first time for our weekly company lunch. The feedback from my coworkers is great. It's a bit pricey as expected for poke. The lunch bowl is a good size and has lots of texture and the sauce is awesome. I wish they would have a printed menu available so I can post it in the office.
This place is close to work and is far less crowded than the one at the Sand Canyon/Irvine Blvd (parking is terrible at lunch!!) I sure will come to order again next time.“

“Sushi
Came here because we were curious and hungry. Not a lot of people which was perfect and got seated right away. The ambiance is a Japanese and Korean vibe. The food and service is so great.

Food. So many to choose from and you only have one stomach. Don’t you hate that.

What my family ordered.
Gurume steak
Salmon

Sushi and a few sushi rolls

Everything is so delicious. Sushi and sushi rolls are so fresh. Would definitely comeback her again.“

“The ingredients were fresh AF and they had a bunch of options for toppings that made my poke bowl totally unique. Plus the staff was nice and helpful, even when I asked them a million questions about the stuff. I'd definitely go back there again, it's like, legit one of the best places to get poke in town.“

“​I've had a lot of sushi in Orange County, and this spot is one of the best—and the price is right. The high-quality food, the location, and the fantastic staff all make this place a winner. Tom and his wife are an absolute delight.

​I highly recommend the Poki bowl. This place was serving up poki bowls long before they were on every corner. The quality is so much better, and you get way more fish. It's a must-try.“

“I’m glad Uoko survived the pandemic and still in business since the 80s.“

“Perfect sushie 🍣 Delicious drinks and excellent service🧙‍♀️🧹“

“Pleasantly surprised by how good the AYCE sushi was. There was a bit of a wait when we arrived right before they opened on a Friday, we added ourselves to the waitlist and it took about 20 minutes to be seated. The sushi and hot foods is of good quality, but there isn’t a lot of variety when it comes to nigiri. Still, it’s a very good option if you want AYCE sushi.“

“Very clean environment and fresh sashimi. Good service too👍“
