decent sushi

by RyanW

I love me some sushi! This place was just okay for me, though the staff was very, very nice. I ordered the tiger eye i think it was called, and it was not quite up to my standards. i also ordered a philly roll, which was good, but those are hard to mess up. My wife ordered some sashimi, she said it was edible, but she definately not what we would call excellent.

Over all if you are in the area its a great place to stop in for lunch , they have some specials. But if you are looking for some seriously good sushi, check out Slow Fish in HB- Amazing!!

• Pros: great service
• Cons: some of the fish was iffy

Best baked sushi rolls I have ever had!

by yuryitis

The baked scallop rolls are the best I have EVER had!!! My husband and I were on a roadtrip a year ago from oregon to newport beach and stopped by this place randomly. We constantly reminisce about this place!!

Very good for the price

I've been in OC for almost 8 years and have avoided this place simply because of its name. Thought it was another one of those wanna-be sushi places catering to the not-so-sensitized palate. After getting a few recommendations from J-food connoisseurs, I decided to try it out. Brought my folks too. Sashimi was fresh. We had yellowtail, salmon, sweet shrimp and tuna (they were out of toro). Not the best tasting sashimi I've ever had, but for the price, it's worth it. $9 gets you 6 pcs of thick sashimi. We also ordered a lunch combo of tempura and yellowtail collar. Which were very tasty. Even came with miso soup and rice. All that for $8. The table next to us ordered mixed sashimi, and looked very good. Will try next time. Will also try their chirashi next.

• Pros: best value
