The best poke bowl the world has ever seen. I've been coming here for nearly 20 years, even multiple times per week for the past decade! Friendly staff and great food in this simple establishment, conveniently located and beloved by locals. Plus, if you don't have time to wait for dine-in, they are great at takeout!

Been coming here for over 20 years, it's small dingy and delicious. We have never found a better place anywhere on the planet. Portions on sashimi are excellent, everything is always fresh and the chefs are very friendly. Sit at the bar or in the back and enjoy the night!

Did not taste fresh at all. We ordered the premium sashimi omakase and the dragon roll. The sashimi quality was maybe slightly above that of which you would get from a convenience store. Definitely below expectations given the rating. Probably on par with what you’d expect in a small town without much Asian food. The dragon roll was eel on top of a california roll which I have never seen before and was not good. Usually dragon roll is eel on top of a tempura based roll.

We went there because we were told it’s the quintessential local awesome sushi place….wrong!!! The sashimi was completely subpar!!! Not fresh at all. It tasted and had the consistency of previously frozen fish! Never again!!!

Tommy’s is the quintessential neighborhood Sushi bar. It’s been in business for a very long time, and the depth and breadth of expertise behind the sushi bar is palpable. Oh did I mention the amazing prices?

A go to spot for our family. A classic sushi spot.Parking: Plenty of parking along the strip mall
Tommy's Sushi is a culinary haven! My go-to is the poke bowl with no rice – a healthy delight bursting with freshness. The sushi is consistently top-notch, showcasing the chefs' skill and dedication to quality. The ambiance is warm, the staff friendly, and the overall experience is a solid five stars. Whether you're a sushi enthusiast or a newcomer, Tommy's Sushi is a must-try gem for its exceptional food, presentation, and service. Highly recommended!

Food was great. Ingredients to the sushi were high end. The spicy tuna roll had a generous chunk of tuna with siracha in the roll. Much better than the tuna paste in most spicy tuna rolls. Not a lot of crazy rolls to select, but i liked every roll I tried. The kids ate their fill and enjoyed it.Staff was friendly and polite. When my son spilled his rootbeer, the waiter kindly gave him a new can for free which he didnt have to do.I liked the general atmosphere of the restaurant. The mirror in the dining room needed a more thorough glass cleaning, but the table and floors were clean. The table had plenty of space for a family of 5 to dine without feeling cramped.Kid-friendliness: Kids loved the food. Softshell crab roll was a favorite. Boys would have preferred free soda refills, but as a parent, I liked them not drinking a quart of sugar water that comes with refills.
Fine, long established sushi place with very good food. Only knock is that it's a little on the pricey

We got tuna and octopus sashami and both were just very fishy and when we did not eat the meal, we were thanked for coming. Paid the bill and left. Too bad, it used to be good food.

Don't let the name fool you- this is the best sushi I've had in OC. We go every week, and I haven't had a sub-par experience yet. The fish is always fresh, the staff is friendly, and its reasonably priced for the quality and amount you receive.
