32 Best Japanese Restaurants in Huntington Beach

“I was conflicted about whether to give Rol 4 or 5 stars. I’m a sushi and hand roll aficionado. I’d eat it daily and I’ve been to most of the places in SoCal. The fish quality here is very good. I got the lunch special and at $16 for 4 rolls that’s a very good price. But the rolls are very small. Usually I can have enough at 5 rolls to be full. Here I had 6 and I could have still eaten more.

Other than that, I have no complaints. It’s a clean restaurant located right off beach blvd in main part of city. The servers were attentive and nice. I’m just a big eater and I would have to order 7-8 rolls to feel satisfied.“

“Just discovered Aburi, had a great experience all around.. their staff, food, and atmosphere were all top notch. Adding this to our go-to lunch spots. Oh, and great value (prices/specials) too! Give it a shot if you’re looking for a new sushi spot in HB.“

“Really high quality ingredients. Everything I ordered was really good, especially the California roll which was one of the freshest I’ve ever had. Tonkatsu was nice and crispy. Even had a vanilla cake roll for dessert which was also extremely fresh. I highly recommend this place!“

“Our second time( we’re from Long Beach) and we love coming back here because of the foods:etc.“

“Great service and good vibes.“

“great food and great service 👍“

“I like to stop by here for lunch during the week when I'm at work. It's has plenty of parking, and the service is always quick. Fair prices for all the items but I usually order the cheese burger with a drink. Even with a tip is fair inexpensive. Would recommend this to anyone looking for a quick delicious bite.

Wheelchair accessibility: Easy for wheelchair access“

“H.B. Roll for me. Beef udon(noodles on the side) for my wife. This is our usual go-to. But I got really sick last week 😭“

“The food was delicious, although our chef wasn't that entertaining. He did forget to season some of the food. He did mention he was supposed to be off, so it was like he wasn't even trying in the end. The whole reason my family and I chose to eat there that night was to be entertained. We could have just gone to a steak house and eat if that was the case. I was just bummed out because the other chefs in the place were putting more effort than he did...“

“Great service, delicious sushi. Friendly people . Great location. Would recommended and we will be back again.“

“My daughter and I have been on a teriyaki spree during our trip, so we decided to give this place a try. The online menu doesn't show everything they offer. Besides the usual chicken and beef teriyaki bowls and plates, they also have wraps, salads, and quesadillas. You can also get brunch/breakfast items like waffles, crepes, pancakes, and smoothies. A very wide range of options. The shrimp options are crossed off the menu in the store.

The lady behind the counter was super nice and patient as I couldn't decide what I wanted. My daughter got a chicken wrap, and I got a half-and-half beef and chicken teriyaki bowl. The meat was well-cooked (the beef was not chewy but very tender), but the teriyaki sauce is served on the side or on top of the meat, not seared and marinated in it. It was good but not as good as some other teriyaki places we visited, and the price was the same.

The store was very clean, and everything was made to order. There is a small seating area outside. We would eat here again if we didn't have other options.

Parking: Plenty of free plaza parking“

“Great food, place and service! 👍👍👍“

“Did take out tonight Fantastic fresh sushi, salad, catsu, Wasabi Just straight up good, nothing fancy. Just impressive quality. We we will be back 👍😊“

“We often visit this place with family because of its fresh ingredients and friendly service. The quality is outstanding for the price, and we’ve always had a satisfying experience. The atmosphere is cozy, and the staff are welcoming, making it easy to enjoy a relaxed meal.“

“If you ever get the opportunity to attend the Omakase dinner. You'll be amazed!“

“Love the Salmon bowl with brown rice. Fast healthy and reasonable prices.“

“Best diner experience!! Celebrated by BF’s 50th bday.“

“The food choices were amazing, everything was fresh and delicious. The service was also A+, everyone was so helpful.“

“I just had an amazing experience here. I'm relatively new to sushi, just checking out the local restaurants near my apartment.

I showed up at around 5:30pm after opening and ordered a few different things at the bar. I was the only person there and got to talking with the sushi chef, who was incredibly friendly, honest, and welcoming. They taught me how to do everything without it being uncomfortable at all, even down to the beer recommendation. The food was of course delicious, tasted quite fresh, and was prepared beautifully.

I learned that the place has dedicated regularly customers, which it remains faithful to - apparently the restaurant has been here since 1984 (or was it '82?).

Easy recommend.“

“fresh, delicious and best service! will definately be back!“

“Some of the best sushi I’ve had outside of Japan. The lunch omakase goes toe-to-toe with some very pricey sushi meals I’ve had at a fraction of the price. Total bill including a 720ml bottle of Juemon sake was less than a single person’s omakase elsewhere.“

“Good food, friendly service, and cozy outdoor dining“

“I’m a sashimi lover and this restaurant offers best fresh fish. Located in the gem of Huntington Beach, Ca next to Trader Joe. Plenty of parking. I always reserve a table before I come because the place is always pack. Also one of my favorite Japanese restaurants in Orange County. Owners and Staffs are wonderful“

“Fine dining and friendly service.“

“Had the best experience last night amazing fresh fish and ice cold beer! It was my first time and I will be going back a lot more had a great time getting to chat with the owner and it really gives that family community vibe that we all hope for when we dine at a restaurant I give it a 5 star experience!“

“What an amazing little hole in the wall grill. We were going to go to Longboards next door but decided against it. We got chicken and beef plates as well as a side of salmon and a California plate. Everything was fresh. Everything was delicious on the freshness of everything from the meat to the Sriracha. The salad was on point nice and leafy greens. The dressing wasn't too pungent and the sauce wasn't too heavy or old. Appreciation to the owner for having love in his restaurant and providing some beautiful grill food! On top of that this place was so speedy and fast. It made for a good to go place when we were in a hurry to get home to our dogs!“

“I came here after work to get something to eat I was so thankful it was open. The food was absolutely amazing!! The service was amazing!! Julia was so nice and welcoming I’ll definitely be coming back . Thank you Julia for being so sweet to me.“

“Super tasty, unpretentious, simple sushi. Came in for lunch, the waiter pointed out a special close to what I had wanted in case I didn't see the better deal. Had a beer in the coldest mug ever! Spicy tuna and a cali roll were served quick on the same plate. Veggie tempura was filling and good. Also had the rice and miso soup, all were good with no discrepancies. My only drawback is presentation, no wow or zaz in the serving. 10/10 would still come back for lunch or date. Fast and attentive service.“

“I found this sushi restaurant while I was walking down the streets of huntington beach, they serve a vast assortment of different types of sushi there, i ordered my food. They brought me some wasabi and ginger and my drink, then they brought me my sushi, and it was very delicious, i give sushi on fire a five star rating for meeting my standards and delivering a delicious midday meal for me, i would definitely recommend this restaurant to anyone looking for good sushi while they're at huntington beach.“

“I was able to come here twice while on business. I did enjoy all the variety of toppings to the 3 or 5 protein bowl. The rice was great for the foundation.I tried the volcano 2 and spicy mayo combo and couldn't really taste the heat at all. Probably needed more flavoring. A but bland. But the bowl size and portion for 5 protein is good. 15.99. Adding an avocado baby scoop is probably worth it at 1.50 extra to give your bowl extra texture. Enjoyed the bowl. Spice up the sauces.“

“Ordered New York & Shrimp to-go, white rice w/vegetables adding Miso soup. White rice was the best part, don't get me wrong the food was good just not worth $45.14. The Teriyaki sauce tasted like it was made by a white guy trying too hard to cook Japanese food.The vegetables were cooked perfectly! I became a bit spoiled for Japanese food in HB from eating at Matsu (Beach & Talbert) since 1978, but this was okay food, I really can't complain much. I am wondering why at 7:30PM on a Wednesday night the dining room was a ghost town?!?It was the best Japanese food I've had on Beach Blvd. in HB for a long time. Matsu has gone downhill since it changed ownership in the 90's, but I think I found my new favorite Japanese restaurant to eat at in HB.I think I was happy with my food overall, I'll give it a solid 7 out of 10. If the staff were a bit more friendly, I'd give you another point, let's see what happens the next time I visit this restaurant.Good job people. ?

Parking: This restaurant is located in the old HB Fire Station across the street from Taco Bell, plenty of parking but would be better if it had a little bit more lighting.“
