“Had an amazing experience at Hello Sushi! The staff were super friendly and made us feel very welcome. Service was quick and attentive the whole time. The sushi was incredibly fresh and high quality. Everything from the nigiri to the specialty rolls tasted great, and you could tell they put care into each dish. I’ll definitely be coming back and recommending it to friends!“

“Worth the wait“

“This may be one of the best sushi deals in Southern California. I know that once the word is out that it’ll be harder to get in, but they deserve the recognition.“

“The food here was so delicious! The quality of the sashimi is really fresh. We got the Chubby Sashimi, and it did not disappoint. The price for the food is also really reasonable. The Chubby Sashimi was only $60. At other places, it would probably be at least $100. The oysters were amazing. They were super clean and tasted buttery. My kids loved the rolls so much they wanted seconds. Our server was so nice and attentive. Overall, everything was amazing. Definitely would recommend this place.“

“All these great reviews are spot on, and you shouldn’t think otherwise. This is the 2nd time coming here with my family and it doesn’t disappoint. So now let me add another 5-star review, to the already many well earned 5-star reviews.
Both times coming here we opted for their 12 piece omakase course with assorted appetizers. Rather than keep repeating the other great reviews on how good the fish tasted, and how fresh the fish was, I’d like to bring attention to how good the rice being used was. Sushi lovers typically focus on the fish, but at the end of the day, fresh fish, is fresh fish… In my opinion, I agree with the notion that it’s the rice that truly makes or breaks the nigiri. And however way the Chef makes his rice is really exceptional, in addition to using the right amount with each piece. Include this with very cold beer, and now you have a winning combination.
In addition to the food, I appreciated the comfortable atmosphere Taira has. Sometimes when we would try other omakase places, the atmosphere was a little too pretentious, just to justify the higher price point.
Thank you Ben and Ayako for another great family sushi night, and next time we will definitely opt for the bar, lol.“

“The Vegan Sushi is dam good. Worth going again and again. Our waiter was amazing and nice and patient with us. If you are Hindu vegetarian you will love the vegan sushi. My son is a picky eater and he ate the house down. My daughter ate Ramen and she enjoyed it“

“The server - Jojo - appeared to be less present than the bussers. She seemed irritated when we asked her to remove empy plates from the table. She was engaging with my kiddos, though. We weren't given our sharing plates with our sushi, so that made it a little awkward to start eating. Timing for when food came out was great. Always love the fried rice with anything on the menu“

“Out of this world omakase. Yum!“

“I've been wanting to go here for some time but never felt like I deserved to. Or even if I did, I never had someone who would possibly enjoy it with. So I was so excited to have been able to finally go today to celebrate @wakandinh 's birthday and do a date night. This was honestly some of the most prettiest and tastiest food I have had. These were some of my favorites tonight. They honestly were all so well thought out and meticulously prepared. I am so grateful to have experienced this Omakase service. The staff and Chef Gino were very attentive, friendly, and endearing. The ambiance was cozy and intimate. 10/10 will have to come back another time not just for the beautiful meal but Chef Gino himself. Thank you Chef for this wonderful meal! ??‍♀️“

“Lovely and delicious!!!!!“

“I ordered from here and honestly the California rolls where delicious. The presentation was beautiful. They delivered in a timely manner. Very happy with their service. I will definitely be ordering from here again. I forgot to take a picture of the trays. But presentation was amazing.“

“Fabulous and delicious food the staff are great“

“always a family experience. 👪 ❤ 💙 💓 ♥ 💕. We love Gloria & we have been coming for years now.“

“Food was great. The wait staff was very poorly trained. Was not sure what roll was what had to remind them to bring items.“

“The sushi was amazingly ? fresh. The place was clean and the presentation was on point. I loved the quaint atmosphere. We had an appetizer of blue soft shell crab. The breading was a bit thick and the crab was rather moist. The flavors were good but I'm not sure I would order that if I went back. Only because the balance of bread to fish ratio was so so. I think this combination could have been pronounced better with a sauce. We also ordered some egg rolls but again, their sushi was so good, had I to do over again I would have saved all my stomach space for another roll instead of the appetizer. The sushi was 5 stars +, the egg rolls 3.5*, and the soft shell crab 3.5. The mango tango roll had so many flavors going on I did not even want to use the soy sauce as it may overpowered all of the other delicate flavors happening within the roll. Same with the crazy monkey, loved the cashews and sauces and did not want to overpower the delicate flavors with soy sauce. The service was attentive to all of our needs. We also had Yuki Sake and that was delicious with a slightly sweet taste but not overwhelming. I would go back there in a heartbeat for their sushi and service.Rolls: Mango Tango, Crazy Monkey

Wheelchair accessibility: There is a ramp to the sidewalk.“

“I have colleagues who rave about this place. It did live up to the expectations. I came with other colleagues who really enjoyed their food. I had the opportunity to order the Sunrise on 17th. It was full of good sushi rolled around crab. No rice in this dish. It was presented really well and the taste was very fresh. I would order this again and recommend it to all sushi lovers. I had the opportunity to have the baked mussel and that was very tasty. Baked just right with a little Kewpie and eel sauce. What was disappointing was that I ordered a hot green tea and drank 3/4 of it only. This tea cost me over $4 that came in a little cup that was slightly bigger than a traditional tea cup. All would have been okay but that price for green tea certainly left me leaving fuming. I am a big fan of sushi but this place is good but not good enough to make me want to revisit.“

“Everything is good. Their sushi is superb and the hamachi kama is soooo delicious, we ordered another one because my brother in law Jim devoured it. He don’t really eat fish, but when he tasted the hamachi kama , he said it’s the best tasting grilled fish. We’re from Arizona, but my sister in law and her husband is just 5 miles away from this sushi restaurant. We’re the one who introduced this place to them . We will definitely come back again at this sushi place. Very friendly server even the owner is so cool. 5 ⭐️ ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ for this restaurant.“

“Great food and service. Been going there over 7 years. Get there early. Leía and Lily are awesome. Luis is the sushi master!“

“AKASAKA. WOW. I was on set and got hungry so me & G3 went to the sushi joint that’s literally tucked away and VERY IYKYK (if you know, you know). All I gotta say is that the Yellowtail Cut Roll got me dancing. The hospitality was great, we were given Iced Green Teas on the house because we were waiting for our to go orders. I gotta dine inside soon & get the real experience.

“Tampopo has become our families favorite local and go to sushi restaurant! You can tell that they really put in a lot of care and effort into every roll. Highly recommend checking this place out if you haven't already. My favorite is the Seared Yellowtail Roll!“

“I ordered takeout from this sushi restaurant and was really impressed. The sushi was fresh, flavorful, and beautifully presented—even for to-go. The staff were super friendly and helpful, making the whole ordering process easy and pleasant. My food arrived quickly and still felt fresh, which made the experience even better. Definitely a place I would return to and recommend to others.“

“I've only been to this establishment for lunch, with that being said, Wasabi has never disappointed my co-workers and I. They have a decent lunch menu, quick service, and cool ambiance.

Parking: Limited parking lot behind the restaurant. Free parking structure near by.“

“Romantic atmosphere! Definitely,“

“On a Roll Ice Cream on Brookhurst is a must-visit spot for ice cream lovers! The experience of watching the ice cream being made right in front of you is fun and unique. They roll the ice cream on a cold plate with your choice of mix-ins, creating beautifully crafted, delicious rolls. The texture is creamy and smooth, and the flavors are bold and rich. Whether you’re into fruity or chocolatey flavors, there’s something for everyone. The staff is friendly and helpful, and the portion sizes are generous. The presentation is Instagram-worthy, and the taste lives up to the hype. It’s the perfect place for a sweet treat on an evening or late night.“

“Food here was pretty good. Portions were quite large and not the typical Izakaya size. We got the Korean fried chicken which was really tasty. The crispy rice was ok. The regular size yakitori skewers gave quite generous portions. The decor inside is very nice.“

“A Hidden Gem in Chino Hills! 🍣🍨

I stumbled upon Heemo Sushi - Chino Hills and was blown away! I ordered the Sunkist Roll—a delicious twist on a California roll with fresh salmon and tuna. Every bite was packed with flavor and perfectly balanced. The fish was incredibly fresh and the roll was beautifully plated.

The service was just as impressive—friendly, attentive, and welcoming from start to finish. To top it off, I treated myself to a macaron ice cream for dessert, and wow—it was the perfect sweet ending!

Definitely coming back. This place is a must-visit for sushi lovers in the area.“

“Great food. Staff are awesome!!“

“Personal Review – Han Nam Udon & Sushi (Garden Grove, CA)

Han Nam Udon & Sushi is my go-to local Korean-Japanese comfort spot. It’s not a flashy place—no trendy decor or Instagram gimmicks—but what it does offer is something harder to find: food that tastes like it was made for regulars, not tourists.

Their udon is the star: rich, clean broth that’s soothing and satisfying, especially on a cool day. The noodles are perfectly chewy, and the toppings are always fresh. I’ve probably ordered the shrimp tempura udon a dozen times and it’s been consistent every visit.

Sushi here is simple, not overcomplicated. It’s not the place for high-end toro or uni, but their rolls are well-balanced and generous for the price. The Han Nam roll is a personal favorite—just enough spice, just enough crunch.

The staff? Quiet but kind. Service is efficient without being rushed. It feels like a family place, the kind of spot you come back to after a long day just to eat something that makes you feel okay again.

Bottom line:
If you want fancy plating or fusion frills, this isn’t it. But if you appreciate simple, honest food with real flavor, Han Nam might become your favorite too.“

“I will definitely recommend this place. The food is excellent, and the price is very affordable. Even on these days where everywhere else try to cut on portions, here you will get very satisfied. The staff is always friendly. I will definitely stop by again.“

“Great local sushi spot with stone decent pricing!

Seating is very limited and the menu gives off a bit of a dated feel but you really can't argue the classics when they're done well.

Sushi rice had just a bit of tang and was light and fluffy.

Dishes were presented very well and our server was thoughtful and cautious enough to make sure our table wasn't overflowing. We ordered about 6 items and by the 3rd plate things were crowding up.

Blue crab avocado roll ($9) - A little heavy on the Japanese mayo and rice but it made for a great presentation on the plate it was on.

Tempura mixed ($9) - 3 pieces of shrimp and 3 pieces of veggies. I'm on the fence with this one since I really enjoyed the presentation but felt like the batter on the shrimp was heavy and the veggies were mostly extra starchy items.

Mini spicy tuna bowl ($9) - This was a pleasant favorite! Just the right amount of heat and a decent amount of tuna over that delicious sushi rice. The first couple of bites where the cold tuna contradicts the warm rice was like being able to eat that feeling of walking on the warm sand and letting the chilly ocean water cool you off.

Amberjack/Hamachi Tuna ($5/piece) - This was interestingly a lighter flavor than what we were familiar with. The cut was thin but blanketed the rice with just a small swipe of sauce and a dab of yuzu paste on top. Playing perfectly well with the tangy rice but also all being a star of the bite while being clean.

Grilled Tuna Belly ($12) - This was the star of the table. Lightly grilled with a bit of crispy edges, seasoned and topped with garlic and micro greens and paired with a dipping sauce on the side to choose how heavy or light you prefer to dip.

Tempura Ice cream ($7) - Couldn't leave our first visit without trying a dessert item. Classic fried ice cream that is wrapped with pound cake and rolled in their delicious tempura batter. Saving room for this is a must if you grew up demolishing these in the early 2000s.

Hidden gems are great to find and it feels like this place has a lot of classics that give you a homey feel where you don't know where to start. Just dive in and make sure you mark off the ones you've tried because there are a good amount of dishes that were of value and quality here.

The best suggestion is to focus on the sushi and always check the sushi list.“

“This is one of our favorite restaurants to go to in Fullerton. The food is great, friendly staff, and the aesthetic is cozy. General japanese theme with a variety of fun decorations through out. I like trying to find something new hidden somewhere.

The wait can build quickly as they are popular but small so be sure to get there early.“

“I come here very often, the food is always fresh and on point. You really get a great deal on AYCE sushi especially if you upgrade to the sashimi package. Everyone is always really friendly and ready to answer questions or suggest a popular or favorite item. I just left and already can't wait to get back! I highly recommend the eel on the sashimi menu, ridiculously good!“

“We got three rolls; baked salmon, salmon killer, and the ducks. Honestly, some of the best rolls I've had in recent memory. I was really surprised by this place. A random praise I have is the ginger. It's so good, a softer bitter flavor than what other sushi spots give“

“place was fantastic! will recommend for ever!“

“Love this place. The special bowl is a great deal and is only available for a limited time. Second choice is the sushi burrito with salmon. We come here once a week. Always fresh and delicious. Staff are very nice. Only complaint is that napkins are kept behind the counter and I always have to ask for additional napkins.“

“This was my first time dining at this restaurant. First, we asked for water, but they only served in Kirkland water bottles. Second, we ordered 2 bento boxes and sushi rolls 2nd one 50% off. Finally, the food was great, but service was not up to par. Overall, we will give them another chance to redeem their service when we come
back.“

“Good happy hour, 🍜🍤🍣🍶 🍻good service“

“I recently visited Haru Sushi, a to-go sushi spot that offers an exceptional experience in both taste and value for money. I would rate it 4 out of 5 stars.The most compelling aspect of Haru Sushi is its remarkable value for the quality of taste. The sushi, made with fresh ingredients and the craftsmanship of seasoned sushi chefs, melts delightfully in your mouth, providing a joyful experience with every bite. The ability to enjoy various kinds of sushi at a reasonable price was particularly satisfying for me, someone who prioritizes good value.However, my nearly perfect experience at Haru Sushi came with a slight inconvenience. The establishment only accepts cash and not credit cards. In today's society, where digital payments have become the norm, the need to prepare cash in advance could be seen as a minor nuisance. Nevertheless, this small inconvenience is easily outweighed by the exceptional taste and value offered by Haru Sushi.In conclusion, Haru Sushi stands out as a to-go sushi spot for its excellent taste and value for money. While the inability to use credit cards is a downside, the quality and price certainly make up for it. I am fully inclined to revisit Haru Sushi whenever the opportunity arises. I highly recommend Haru Sushi to anyone looking to enjoy delicious sushi at a reasonable price.“

“Been coming here for 22 years. Still our favorite sushi place by far ❣️“

“Good vibes... great time!“

“This is the best sushi place I go Pretty much 3 to 4 times a week Such great fresh sushi and great service“

“Ordered two party platters for a party that included my dad who has a shellfish allergy. I called to explain that I needed shellfish free sushi and they did a great job. Everyone at the party loved the sushi. Definitely would recommend a party tray from this place!“

“Our favorite spot, our go to for sushi“

“Excellent sushi. Creative menu. Great wait staff.“

“Been going to this restaurant for at least 10 years. It’s a small place and always busy. The food has never disappointed me. The lunch special is reasonably priced and they have this great deal on party trays. For $95 I think we got about 8-10 sushi rolls, I forgot the exact count. Service is great.“

“You know what. I love Sushi and I’ve traveled around trying many sushi restaurants trying to find unique quality sushi restaurants that have that flare to make you want to come back again and again. I found that this Sushi restaurant was one of those I would visit again. You know what sets it apart. Is the sushi guys at the sushi bar that welcome you in and make sure to say goodbye on your way out. Not only is there a great greeting, but the service is great too. Even though they are small they pumped out the orders with great speed and finesse. Also, they have very unique sushi rolls that I haven’t seen at most sushi bars. As a sushi enthusiast, it fabulous to find new rolls to try and of course stick with the occasional favorites. Thanks again for the great food and we hope to visit you once again when we are back in town.“
