44 Best Sushi Bars near Rancho Santa Margarita

“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?!“

“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.“

“Love our little sushi spot. Best sushi! We get no rice rolls and we cannot find the selection elsewhere. They r fantastic with kids“

“We have been going to Niko Niko for 10 years now. We love the restaurant and the community and the friends we made there I would definitely recommend this place, the food is amazing and the owners are very accommodating to the costumers needs. Love you Niko Niko family. My youngest daughter was so in love with their miso soup that they named an specific to go order with her name. “Christiana style”.“

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

“Our go to Sushi 🍣 restaurant. Best in town, small, but great friendly, service oriented staff.“

“Great food! More like a "Sushi to go" restaurant. You order your food at the counter. There are only a couple of tables inside and out the restaurant and they will bring the food to your table if you are dining in. It is family owned and you often see Father, Mother, and Daughter working behind the counter. But every time I've eaten here, I've been very pleased with the food and service.“

“Great restaurant, staff and awesome sushi!

Restaurant can get busy quickly so pick your times.. we usually go at opening time to avoid the rush. We have never had a bad experience there.

Awesome Japanese restaurant!!“

“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.“

“This is a good neighborhood joint. It's not fancy, but the food is solid and the staff is attentive and friendly. If you go regularly, they'll remember your name.The have indoor seating (sushi bar and tables) and a small covered patio. They have fun hand-lettered signs with specials. Halibut carpaccio was one the specials tonight.If you go for lunch, they've got bento box specials that are tasty too.RECOMMEND

Parking: This is in in a large shopping plaza with a big parking lot. Parking is never a problem.

Kid-friendliness: They don't have a kids menu or specific option for kids. If your kid likes sushi or teriyaki or tempura, then your kid would do okay here.“

“My favorite sushi restaurant, without a doubt, offers an experience worth every penny. I always go for the buffet, as the variety and quality of the ingredients shine through in every bite—something I don’t always find elsewhere. The sushi has just the right amount of ingredients, making it perfect in taste and texture.

I love the family-friendly atmosphere, and you can tell they pay attention to every detail to ensure a great customer experience. Plus, the cleanliness is impeccable, which makes me feel confident every time I go back. These kinds of family-owned restaurants deserve all our support; they’re a gem in the community.“

“Came here for the first time last night on a whim cause we didn't feel like cooking. We're vegetarian, so we asked them for options. They were able to make us avocado rolls and a vegetarian base for the ramen. The food was good, not too salty or heavy. The service was awesome and humorous.“

“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.“

“We have been coming here for years and every time we have an incredible experience. The food is delicious, the service is kind and friendly and the atmosphere is delightful (we enjoy sitting outside). Reservations are recommended however we walked in at 5pm when they opened and they were happy to accommodate us. I personally enjoy the Marbella Roll and the Fried Jalapeño tapas.“

“I’ve been ordering since they open years ago. Tonight I had an amazing and unusual experience that compelled me to write a review. Outstanding level of customer service, above and beyond all expectations to accommodate and correct a mistake that I made! To the tune of remaking my entire order complimentary! I’ve never had this experience anywhere. Thank you!“

“Awesome place, great prices and amazing food, I love getting the Deluxe Bento plate, it comes with chicken teriyaki, tempura shrimp, Edamame, California rolls, crunchy rolls, and salad, plus the miso soup.“

“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!“

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

“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.“

“Great Sushi and lots of fun.“

“Good food and friendly service“

“I hope the manager takes the time to read my review. We visited TruSushi today, and the food was excellent and truly one of the best sushi spots in OC. However, the service from the young lady working there was overwhelming. While I appreciate her effort to serve us, she was at our table every couple of minutes, which became intrusive. It disrupted our ability to have a conversation and enjoy a peaceful meal. Some diners value a bit of space while they eat. I really hope this issue is addressed because, honestly, her overly attentive service is the main reason I’d hesitate to return.“

“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!!!“

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

“Food quality under the new management is excellent. All of the tempura dishes were perfectly cooked and the sushi rolls were a nice consistency - not too loose and not too dense. Tuna quality was good.

New owner is very attentive.“

“If you’re too busy to go to Japan, don’t worry. This place is where you want to go for quick Japanese beer, sake and food. Real authentic yakitori to “Uni Sushi” @ very very reasonable price, and you will forget where you’re. Friendly staff and plenty of parking spaces. One thing to remember, please hire a babysitter before you and your significant other come to this place and sit at the bar side. After all, this is an Izakaya (Japanese bar). Enjoy!“

“I came here to take myself out for a little treat and I throughly enjoyed it here! Michael and Christina (I hope Thats how I spell their names!) were so kind and helpful while I was dining here. I highly recommend the beef udon and the sashimi salad ? Cheers!“

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

“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.“

“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.“

“4.5 stars.

A bit pricy and the hours are a bit odd but have always left full and happy. The hospitality is amazing and each roll or dish is hand prepared with care.

The hand rolls are huge - beware when ordering as they are quite filling (and delicious!). Cucumber salad is refreshing and the yellowtail and tuna are incredibly fresh and light.

Daily specials are “special dishes” not necessarily specials of the day (price wise).

Huge lot shared with other retailers but this location is off to itself with ample parking.

Vegetarian options: Salads and some options but not many

Parking: Huge lot shared with other retailers but this location is off to itself with ample parking.“

“This is a great, unexpected treat in a strip mall in Laguna Hills. Some of the best sushi I have had in quite some time. We ordered omakse and each dish was better than the last. The service was prompt and polite. Small store front and not much in terms of atmosphere, but that is an easy trade off for the great food!“

“Great food and excellent customer service
Highly recommend
Yaki Udon noodles were great and all of us enjoyed our dinner
Excellent service and food
The employees were attentive if we needed anything
This place deserves more than 5 stars“

“Delicious food, fun and inviting atmosphere, excellent service and the friendliest owners Key and his lovely wife Grace. Our local reliable go to.“

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

“My family and I usually love Jizake and have been to this place multiple times over the years. However after last nights dinner not sure if we will come back. The first issue is that the server forgot to bring us 3 of our appetizers. I also noticed that my hot sake wasn't very hot and that they have trimmed down the size of their rolls. During the meal it became obvious to all of us outside that they were using a wifi speaker and whoesever phone it was hooked up to must have been moving around since the music was going in and out. Lastly while asking for the check I instructed the server to take the appetizers off our bill since we didn't receive them. He said he would and when he came back I was given a hand written bill with the break down. To his credit those appetizers were shown but not charged. I totaled up each line item and everything seemed correct as the subtotal was $170 with tax total should have been $183.17. However after taking my credit card he came back saying they totaled our bill incorrectly and apologized. Our new printed bill after charging my credit card didn't show the pricing break down for all the items but it appears that they added back in the money for the appetizers as with tax it came to $196.11 plus tip. By this point we just wanted to leave. After getting home we started not feeling so well. We don't usually have any bad reactions to sushi so maybe it was some sort of cross contamination issue. Either way I would caution everyone while eating at this establishment.“

“Food tasted good and healthy, as in no msg i can taste and mildly seasoned. All the ingredients were fresh. This is a hidden gem. I cannot believe this place isn't more busy.

I ordered the tempura crunch roll and wrap. Both were delicious. Also the prices are so ridiculously low, esp for the quality of food.“

“I was at Juice It Up and girl there said Yogi's Grill next door had good beef bowls, so I went next door and ordered the beef veggie bowl. So simple and delicious. Waiting for my order I noticed most people were picking up orders and the girl at the counter was taking a lot of call in orders. It would be good to order ahead, but it only took maybe 10 or 15 min. for my order to be ready. Repeat, food was really delicious.“

“DELICIOUSNESS! healthy, tasty and great prices“

“I recommend the AYCE. All You Can Eat for a great price. The Sushi was very fresh and flavorful, the service very good and the Price was very reasonable. I would try the Jalapeño Poppers if you like a bite of spice and uniqueness! The Melon Soda was really good. Enjoy!!!“
