50 Best Japanese Restaurants near Yorba Linda

“Good food and good service“

“Great place!! The food is amazing and is such a fun place to have a birthday dinner! I have been coming here for so long and it never disappoints. The service is amazing with the cooks giving a little show! The place is a bit small, but they make it work! I love the vibe inside and now how they seat outdoors since the place is so popular! 1000/10 recommend“

“Best Japanese restaurant in Yorba Linda. Our family has been coming here for 22 years. Food is consistently good. It is family owned quality place. I highly recommend it. It is better to make reservations ahead.“

“A must stop for a quick, casual, delicious bite if you're in Yorba Linda. Six sauces complemented our yummy shrimp and chicken bowls (because we couldnt pick just one!). Friendly, outstanding service, too! But we forgot to take a pic of the food! Must go back!“

“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.“

“My first, not to mention last visit at what was an enjoyable fast food experience! I’ll add; I’m not a fast food eater, this rare occasion proved most favorable. The food was fresh, very flavorful and cooked to perfection!! Thank You KiNG’s Teriyaki Grill.“

“Wonderful food and excellent service! We will be back! 👏🏻👏🏻“

“The food is very good and prepared fast. Good portions as well. I think it's the biggest cali roll I've had in a bento box. The popcorn chicken is too spicey for my baby pallet though. And the teriyaki sauce is salty. And the music was awful when i was there. Thats why the 1 point deduction fornatmosphere. But overall, I wish I loved closer to this place, I would eat here all the time.“

“I honestly debated whether to write this review or keep this place to myself — it’s that good. The food is truly unique and absolutely delicious. You can taste the quality in every bite; everything was incredibly fresh and beautifully prepared.
Andrew completely elevated our experience. His energy, attentiveness, and genuine hospitality made the night unforgettable. I don’t think I can ever go back to my previous sushi spot after this.
What really stood out was how accommodating they were — I was able to taste an item before they were added to my dish, which has never happened to me before. That level of care is rare.
The atmosphere is clean, inviting, and thoughtfully designed. I’m so glad I discovered this place. Highly, highly recommend.“

“Enjoyed my dining in I Luv Sushi too!“

“Friendly and amazing owners. Food is wonderful“

“Food is delicious 😋 and service is great 😊 we are going back again soon 😃“

“Amazing experience. At first I was wary when I realized the restaurant was in an older hotel next door to Disneyland but I admit I was absolutely wrong. The restaurant was good enough to be one you could find in any five star resort or Michelin guide. The service was absolutely amazing. The entire staff was welcoming and extra nice to us. The chef was from Japan and had fifty years experience as a sushi chef in Japan. The food was amazing and I can’t state that enough. It was to die for. Some of the best real sushi I’ve had in years and not Tex mex sushi. This was an emphasis on the fish. The Wagyu was some of the best I’ve had in years. Everything was amazing. I will be back.“

“kenny and Ken 👍The food was very delicious and the service was great. The staff were friendly and made us feel welcome. The restaurant was clean and the atmosphere was nice and relaxing. I really enjoyed my meal here and would definitely come back again. Highly recommend! 😊“

“Such a delicious place! Everything is fresh, and the portions are very generous.
They have plenty of seating inside, and the place is very clean.
There is a parking lot in front of the store, and there is also parking available
behind the building.“

“Daoni Sushi is hands down one of the best sushi spots in Orange, CA! We frequent this restaurant often and the friendly staff/owners always make us feel right at home. The place doesn't look fancy, but the fish is always fresh with delicious options at reasonable prices. Our favorites include the spicy hotate and the Salmon Lover roll (buttery and flavorful).

If you're craving high-quality sushi without the hype or high costs, Daoni is a must-try.“

“Kiku sushi restaurant is honestly amazing the service is the best I’ve ever had and the people there are so sweet. I love going there and the price is perfect definitely try the garlic butter salmon if you love onions it’s amazing along with their baked scallops. I never write reviews for anything but this place deserves the highest rating. You must try them out!!“

“Fantasic staff! They are always so friendly and helpful! They always remember us when we come in. The shabu is fantastic. The broth selections are wonderful and you can mix and match! Produce is fresh, lots of beers on tap. Only critisism is I wish they would change their chairs, they aren’t comfortable; the food is so good though it’s worth being uncomfortable!“

“I had an absolutely amazing dinner at Akashiro. I did the full omakase experience, and everything was completely delicious! I got the passion fruit sake cocktail and it was also very good. I interacted with several staff members, and they were all excellent. The sushi chef with the dangling earring was especially friendly and helpful. Definitely get the ceviche and parmesan scallops. I also got to try some of the Nikkei (fusion) nigiri and they were all really good, but especially the salmon. Highly recommended for a great sushi dinner.“

“I had a great experience at this ramen place! The broth was rich, flavorful, and perfectly seasoned, and the noodles had just the right texture. The toppings were fresh, and each bite felt comforting and satisfying. The staff was friendly and attentive, making sure we had everything we needed. The restaurant itself was clean and cozy, creating the perfect atmosphere to enjoy a warm bowl of ramen. I’ll definitely be coming back and recommending it to friends.“

“Read my post it's the best around“

“Hands down one of the best sushi experiences I’ve had locally. The fish was incredibly fresh and clearly high quality, and the pricing felt like excellent value for what you’re getting.

We had the toro, A5 wagyu, shima aji, the Oyishi roll, and the BG salmon roll—every single bite was outstanding. You can really tell the care and skill that goes into the food.

On top of that, the chef was personable, welcoming, and genuinely nice, which made the whole experience even better. This is officially my new favorite sushi spot and has earned a permanent place in my go-to rotation. Highly recommend.“

“Saw a picture of the Yakisoba Katsu sandwich and I had to have one! It was awesome! The Katsu was crispy and the meat tender. In short it was perfect! (not dry at all!) the yakisoba noodles was a nice addition as it absorbed the tonkatsu sauce and the cole slaw dressing! I also loved the brioche bread! A perfect touch. The sandwich was delicious and not like anything I have tasted before! This with a side of the curry fries! (YUM!) I'll definitely be back for more!“

“Me encanto el lugar muy agradable el personal no se diga muy amables“

“Amazing experience from when we walked through the door to when we walked out had such an amazing experience!! THE FOOD WAS AMAZING SUSHI WAS ON POINT AND THE PRICES are great!!!!! But what would make me come back(cause I’m from Temecula) was the service and the amazing food“

“Service was sooo slow. Had to keep asking the waiter for our food to come after waiting for sooo long. We didn’t even order that much every time 😭 kind of ridiculous bc the place wasn’t even that packed.

The food was good though. I did AYCE. I loved the meat and the ramen!!! It was really good. The udon was decent. The sushi was good as well. The soup was also good.“

“Chicken Katsu lunch special is really great value. Spicy katsu sauce is the right amount of spice and flavor, and the salad dressing makes the salad pretty good. Taiyaki was made fresh and tasted great. Wish there was an option to buy less Taiyaki though; 5 is a little too much for even two people.“

“nice little place... friendly staff... good food.“

“Midoh is one of those spots that instantly feels like comfort food done right. If you’re craving Japanese homestyle cooking—the kind that’s warm, hearty, and hits you with that “ahhh, this is exactly what I needed” feeling—this place delivers every time.“

“Every dish was delectable, and great service! We all had a fantastic time there! Definitely will be back, and for celebrations.“

“Always amazing food and excellent service! We’re so happy to have found this place. We come here at least 3 times a month because it’s so good. The ramen is so creamy and rich in flavor. We haven’t found a better ramen place than this.“

“Best 🍱 sushi, best service, #Lynnandherfathertraditionenoughsaid. Cubi“

“Service was amazing! The waitress was so nice and reminded us about the deal when we were so close to it, thank you. And the food was really good for the price. Honestly, didn't have much expectations but it was really good for such a small place.“

“Fantastic shabu-shabu experience from start to finish!

Shabu Shabu Bar in Santa Ana is an absolute must for me when visiting Orange County. From the moment you walk in, the atmosphere is lively, clean, and modern, with a great counter setup that makes cooking your own meal fun and engaging.

The broths are rich and flavorful (tons of great options), and the meats are sliced perfectly, fresh, tender, and high quality. The vegetable platter is generous and colorful, the sauces and toppings let you customize every bite, and everything feels thoughtfully prepared. The gyoza were crispy and delicious, and the rice paired perfectly with the meal.

Service is friendly and attentive, even when the place is busy. They make sure you’re comfortable, explain the process if it’s your first time, and keep everything running smoothly.

And the cherry on top, free ice cream at the end! Such a nice touch to finish an already great meal.

Shabu Shabu Bar delivers every time. Highly recommend!“

“I went here about 10+ years ago. We didn't like it at all. Recently I went with a buddy. It was fantastic. Rolls are great. Large cuts of sushi. Great quality. I've already returned for another visit. New favorite sushi place“

“The owner is very sweet, attentive and so polite she is fast and always ready for you when you order with a smile and the food is awesome and she makes my experience better. Since my first experience she has been amazing I come back even by myself and she is the best I definitely recommend this place to for dinner with the fam. Or friends!“

“Love this place. Prefer to sit at the bar“

“We love coming here! Have done all you can eat before, but a la carte is good too. The bento box is a great deal and very tasty. The Anaheim roll is my favorite. Clara was our server tonight and she was very nice and helpful. We like to sit at the bar, the sushi chefs are always fun too and nice too!“

“I’ve been to other Marugame Udon locations before, but this was my first time at this one (chino hills)—and I’m genuinely impressed. The place was very clean, the staff were friendly, and the utensils and condiments area felt especially well-organized and welcoming. Overall, it was a great experience, and I’ll definitely be coming back“

“Oh man where to begin! This place is a hidden gem that I was recently taken to. Ever since going my first time about a month ago, I’ve been back 5 times! The bluefin nigiri is probably the best nigiri I’ve had in Orange County (The bluefin keeps us coming back week after week). If I were to recommend anything, it would have to be the bluefin. The yellowtail and salmon nigiri are just as amazing. You can’t go wrong with anything here—the fish is incredibly fresh and flavorful, and each roll and nigiri is so unique in its own way and flavor profile. They are also incredibly generous with portion size and price! We love sitting at the bar because it makes the experience so much better!

Apart from the food, what also keeps me keeping back is the amazing hospitality and service! Whenever we walk in, we are greeted by the entire staff—the sushi chefs, hosts, and servers. The staff take great pride in ensuring that guests are taken care of, and they genuinely enjoy getting to know their guests on a personal and grounded level. A special mention to Torrance, Jay, and Robbin (The sushi chefs) who consistently put out amazing nigiri and rolls for us! Another mention to Debbie and Diana, who are so incredibly warm, friendly, and hospitable—providing the best service in town!“

“Authentic Japanese restaurant! This is a hidden gem in Anaheim area.I tried Live halibut, amaebi, uni, tempura.Food was excellent and owner was super freindly! Their kindness made me comfortable and enjoy my dinner!If you are looking for good sushi/sashimi place in Anaheim, this place is a must.This is a place run by Koreans, and it’s my first time eating proper Japanese food in a long time!The fish is fresh and well aged, so it's really delicious to eat.I think I will come back again when I go to Anaheim.“

“Worth the wait“

“First time Great food and exceptional service“

“Friendly waters and comfortable setting“

“ok I was craving Cali rolls but my usual spot wasn't taking orders at the time on Uber eats. so I looked for another spot. I settled on this one because they had some good deals going plus the Cali rolls looked really tasty in the pic lol. I got 2 orders Cali rolls and a yellowtail roll. I also asked for teriyaki or eel sauce on side . everything was fresh and when I say the avocado and meat melted in my mouth .. it was so amazing . I will definitely be ordering again and trying some other rolls my fave. yellow tal isn't my favorite for sushi but I'm glad I tried it and it was very fresh .

ps.. I poured sauce on the rolls they didn't come like that lol one pic is the yellowtail roll and other is all the rolls together .“

“I personally cannot get enough of the Ramen. We've tried several and cannot decide which one is the better one. It is one of the tastiest Ramen we've tried over the years. We've been coming back several times and each time, food is amazing.“

“The take-out box was convenient, if not finished in restaurant. The beef and chicken were great with the provided salad dressing, rather than the teriyaki sauce. It was placed as side as suggested by the host, especially that I was a diabetic. The water was refilled as needed, which was appreciated. I also asked for a second bowl of miso, which I enjoyed. Overall, it was great to have a meal at the Bento Box in Chino.“

“my 1st time. food was off the hook good. I will be back again“

“place was fantastic! will recommend for ever!“

“The Kobe stakes is so testy . Assassins was as“
