“I want my review to literally reflect the 4.8 currently for this restaurant. The food is good, but with some reservations. First off, the sushi was fresh and tasty. My daughter loves sushi and they did not disappoint. I ordered the Bento box with the beef teriyaki upgrade. The teriyaki was fantastic, definitely home made and had superb flavor. The problem was the meat. It had the distinctive taste that it had been left to marinate in the blood of the meat. Understandable, while it didn't ruin the meal, the taste did give me pause. Everything else, the tempura, salad, and California rolls; were excellent. The service left me puzzled. The young lady at the counter was friendly and helpful. However, it would have been nice to know we could have ordered at our table instead of the counter. Minor quibbles aside, the food is great and the service was excellent. Definitely a place to check out in Laguna Beach.“

“Good sushi. I liked their specialty rolls. They let me substitute crab stick instead of that crab meat/mayo i detest. We had Hawaiian roll, Washington roll, and paradise roll. I liked all three. We sat at the bar and the sushi came fast. They had college football on TV. It doesn't have the traditional Japanese tables. My knees are too old for that and I prefer a backrest, so I didnt mind. But if you insist on tatami tables I didnt see any.“

“Food was absolutely stellar. Everything was incredibly fresh, staff was extremely friendly.
If you're looking for quality sushi in Laguna Beach this is the spot. Quiet, tucked away, and just doing things perfectly. I'd have taken photos, but it was too good to wait.“

“Sashimi is a sushi restaurant located at the corner of Lake Forest Drive and Dimension Drive. It appears to be run by a Korean family and is a popular spot among the locals. They have a sushi bar, but we opted to dine at a table. Steve greeted us and was not only friendly and helpful, but his service level enhanced our overall dining experience.
We tried a number of dishes during our visit. Among my favorites were the Veggie Tempura, Salmon Nigiri, Lake Forest Roll (I appreciate that they allow substitutions so I subbed spicy yellowtail in place of the spicy tuna) and Special Carpaccio S. The Spicy Salmon cut roll was nothing special and tasted more like a California Roll. The Yellowtail Cheek was good, but it was more meaty and less tender than I've enjoyed at other Japanese restaurants. My wife ordered the Pink Lady, but I prefer my sushi with rice. All in all, we enjoyed our Sashimi experience and I'd recommend checking it out if you're in Lake Forest and in the mood for raw fish at a reasonable price.“

“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.“

“My wife and I ordered the Salmon Lemon and Crunchy Spicy Tuna rolls, and both were amazing! We also tried the garlic edamame and the Crispy Rice Spicy Tuna appetizer. Everything was delicious and perfectly balanced. I’m a picky person and not easily impressed. The prices were right, food was perfect, and our server was so sweet and funny. We will be back!“

“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!”“

“Don't sleep on Lemon & Life Sushi!
After 4 visits with consistently outstanding food quality, we've decided that Lemon & LIfe is our family's go-to. We've tried sashimi, sushi, ramen, appetizers, drinks, mochi dessert - pretty much everything on the menu and not had a disapointing meal yet. The portions of fish are pretty large - shocking actually. For that quality, it's a bargain. If I had one recommendation, it would be to soften the lighting for dinner service and turn the music up a bit just to create more ambiance.“

“A couple of friends and I decided to get sushi driving back from the airport on a Sunday evening. We didn’t have any expectations, but we were really impressed with the quality, service, and ambiance. We will come back if we’re ever in the area.“

“The service here is so nice and fast. You can’t beat the lunch special deals! ($10-13 for entree with soup and salad) I love coming here for lunch, I want to try all their deals haha. If I didn’t make it for the lunch specials I would definitely try one of their specialty rolls!“

“Food is great.
Kasu is great.
Service is generally very good, besides this male staff who is in charge of counter, seating, and billing.
We are still on seat, they took away the sign credit card receipt super fast, and grab it like a flash. He looks like just woke up, not happy, and not kind at all.“

“Third-floor sushi spot above Glenneyre on the main drag. The fish quality is noticeably above the average Coast Highway sushi stop — thick cuts, proper temperature, buttery texture that tells you it's fresh. The black cod preparation is a standout. Doubles as takeout if you want to eat on the beach across the street. One of those spots that quietly outperforms its profile.“
“An absolutely exceptional omakase experience that defines luxury dining. From the first course to the last, the sushi was nothing short of extraordinary—impeccably fresh, masterfully prepared, and thoughtfully composed to highlight the purity of each ingredient. Every bite reflected true craftsmanship and precision.
The sake pairing was perfectly curated, enhancing the flavors of the sushi without overpowering them and adding a refined rhythm to the entire experience. Each selection felt intentional and elevated the progression of the meal.
The dessert was a stunning finale—elegant, balanced, and a brilliant complement to the journey of flavors that came before it. It tied the entire experience together in a way that felt both indulgent and refined.
This is not just a meal, but a world-class omakase experience. Ideal for special occasions or anyone seeking the highest level of sushi and hospitality. Sue and her husband have something very special that they want to share with all their customers. This is a foodies paradise.“

“We visited FAT FISH Sushi today on December 25th (Christmas Day). After calling many places that were closed, we were so glad to find this restaurant open. The place was quiet, with no other guests at the time, but the service was very fast and attentive. The sushi was amazing — fresh, flavorful, and high quality. We truly enjoyed our visit and were very satisfied. We’ll definitely be happy to come back again!“

“Went the other night and food and service was amazing. Everything tasted super fresh and they even finished the meal with a scoop of green tea ice cream. I was surprised to see it empty on a Saturday night cause it was one of the best times ive had at a sushi place :]“

“I’ve been going here for years and years. This staff is incredible. They are about to change management and I hope you keep all the same ladies that have been there for years. I get treated badly at so many restaurants because of how I look and they are always so kind and always have a smile on their faces when I walk in because I used to be a super regular. These are incredible women and I hope they stay if they want.“

“Our son went to UCI and took us to Iro Sushi the first time. Each time we visit him we love to go there and pick something up to eat at the tables outside. The rolls are great and there are macarons and other desserts that are fantastic. The woman who makes them is super nice and we always chat with her. You should stop by and enjoy.“

“Omg! One of the best hand roll spots. My boyfriend and I were craving hand rolls after our San Diego trip and stumbled upon this place.
It's a cute small restaurant bar seating only in a U shape so be prepared for a wait but it's worth it!
Amazing customer service, shout out to (maybe the manager?) I asked if we can take our drink to go and she filled the to go cup partially to make sure we had a full cup to go.
The rolls were amazing, amazing flavors, everything was fresh. The uni toro roll was definitely my favorite. The uni was so delicious, and melts in your mouth.
The only downside if I had to give one is they don't substitute or make modifications based on allergies. I had said I was allergic to shiitake mushrooms because one of the rolls in the high roller set had it, but they can't modify. I still did the high roller and just took out the shiitakes. Other than that everything was great.“

“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!“

“They were super busy, as in slammed, NYE with to-go orders but still maintained friendly and personable service. Best of all the FOOD turned top tierrrr!! Them being busy didn’t affect or impact the quality of my order, which I was kind of worried about. Best wagyu Ever and the jalapeño bombs are the BOMB!! Honorable mention the spider roll, always a hit. Can’t miss, everything I’ve had so far is good.“
