Sushi was so good. Big pieces, they didn't make their sushi more rice than fish unlike usual sushi spots. The fish slices were big and fresh. Service was Ok. They forgot one of our orders but charged us. Of course they voided it. But over all, it was good
Come with reservation and call to make reservation is very easy! Restaurant fill up very quickly after 6pm for summer time. We tried the 13pc omakases menu, which is $120. We do one sashimi, and one sushi, which is perfect for me and my husband. All the fish are so fresh and fatty.
my bf made a reservation for us on (06/13) and we had the 10 piece omakase. chef started us off by serving us ceviche with different assortments of fish. then he prepared each individual sushi piece by hand. i loved sitting at the bar and watching him work his magic. the servers were very nice. my favorite nigiri of the night was the japanese halibut.
Probably one of most unique sushi joint. Many rare fish are available. Where can you find black marlin or pike?
I usually don't leave reviews for restaurants, but this one was too good to pass up. My wife and I enjoyed a 13-piece omakase, clam and mushroom miso soup, and uni pasta. Although we've been to several omakase restaurants before, this experience stood out as one of the best, especially considering the price point. Each piece was incredibly fresh and flavorful, and the rice was perfectly portioned. We were particularly impressed by the sweet shrimp, kanpachi, chutoro, and uni. The uni pasta was also delightful, with just the right amount of sauce to enhance the flavor of the uni. The service provided by both the server and the chef was superb, and the ambiance truly evoked a Japanese feel. Overall, our experience was excellent, and we look forward to returning soon for another round of omakase.
Very legit sushi place. Miso Duck is very good! Fatty and chewy. I'm pretty okay with wasabi, but there is WAY too much wasabi for the scallop and Sea Bass. Everything else was perfect. Shrimp is very good, choose the fried option! Recommend asking all the prices first thats not written on paper.
My son wanted an Omakase for his birthday. I gave him a few choices and he picked Ohshima. I was not happy. I wanted something with hot and cold courses but it was his choice. I think he chose well. We were presented with plates of beautiful fish. I didn't get the names of them , bad me. Every piece of fish had a beautiful color. The taste? Omg. Every piece of fish was soft and tender and buttery and flavorful. It was super expensive but for a lovely dish treat, it was worth it!
This place is delicious and they really take the time to make amazing sushi I absolutely recommend. THIS IS 1 michelin star level sushi! (And priced at that level). The sake is also wonderful as is the ambiance. Don't let the outside fool you. Service was also great. There are better sushi places to be sure, but this is among the best in orange county and la county. Cheers
This is quite interesting. I have been here twice, post pics twice, and it's quite similar between the two. Believe the last time I visited this place was in 2015. 9 years later, I'm finally getting around to this review. If you take a look at my picture set between the two, you can clearly see the difference of fish size, prep, and texture. If my memory serves me well, I'm not sure if I prefer my first experience more, or my pallet has evolved over the years and it's not how I remembered. Needless to say, it was a great experience to share this meal with my wife. We thoroughly enjoyed the service and meal. When I'm looking at the stars to award them, its missing something that I can't seem to wrap my head around. I'm stuck at a 4. I see my peers grant them 5s all around but somehow, I can't get there. Inside is quite small, they only have limited of tables so be sure to call in for reservations. Also, you'll need to clarify if you want bar or table. If you opt for bar, you'll also be opting for Chef's Choice (Omakase) so heads up. To sum this up, its good quality and quantity... a balance sorta speak. Its reasonably priced for good quality sushi. Come try it and see for yourself.
