Sakana Sushi & Grill

For the price, the quality of fish is really not that good. They just package the food to look nice, but the salmon in my salmon roll was so tough and chewy and tasted fishy. It was really low quality and I was really disappointed. The miso soup had a weird sweet flavor that was a bit off putting. The service was nice and staff was friendly but I dont think ill come back here again.

I have been a loyal customer at this establishment for years and have always appreciated the good service. In the past, I would order food ahead of time and dine in with my whole family without any issues. However, today I was told that this is no longer allowed, which was disappointing and unexpected. Because of this new policy, you lost our business today. I wanted to share my experience so you’re aware of how these changes can affect long-time customers.

Our group of 8 had a very nice time. We opted to sit at a smaller table so we could see & hear each other. The servers were attentive & worked with our limited spacing well. The food was wonderful as usual. We were not rushed & enjoyed our time with good company & great food.

Amazing place! I came here for the first time for my birthday lunch and it was fantastic! Portions are very generous as you can see and it was delicious! The staff was also very nice and the service and setting was great. Zero complaints, will definitely come back again! Five stars! Six stars!

My mom and I love this place. Staff and food are excellent .

Sakana is honestly one of my favorite spots for sushi. I had such a great experience. We ordered the Lobster Roll and Alaskan Roll. Both were insanely good. So fresh, so flavorful... every bite was oishii. Our server, Brian, was super kind and made us feel really welcome.If you're looking for authentic Japanese sushi and a relaxed dining vibe, Sakana is the place to go. Can't wait to come back!

This place is already well known among those in the know. I used to visit frequently when I lived in L.A., but after moving to Orange County, I finally had the chance to return and enjoy a meal with my family.

It was impressive to see that they’ve maintained their high quality over the years. No wonder the restaurant continues to thrive.

In my opinion, it’s a much better choice than many overpriced sushi spots that are famous just for the sake of being famous.

Having visited numerous top-tier sushi restaurants, I can confidently say that Sakana holds its own without a doubt.

So so.

We have been this place for couple times and every time we receive the same service and high quality of sushi!

Horrible experience. Had a reservation and still had to wait an hour to be seated. Ridiculous.

We arrived at 615 for a 630 reservation. The place was packed with a line for fine in and take out. Staff was nice but very overwhelmed as the phone was ringing also. When seated we were greeted and served drinks promptly. We waited a bit longer for appetizers and mains. The table was so small we were constantly shifting plates around and consolidating. Overall the food prep was standard with presentation rushed. Two things to note: First, do not be enchanted by the use of the words “lobster” or “baby lobster”, read the full description to find “crawfish”. Second, my greatest disappointment was the imitation crab. Lastly the use of mayonnaise was too heavy for my taste and interfered with the fresh taste of the food.

Really on all levels, this is a very middling establishment. Somewhat plain and perfunctory decor, service is friendly but not very attentive, and the cuisine is ok but certainly not anything special.

Excellent customer service and the food quality is amazing. It was worth every single penny. Definitely coming back again.
