"Accidentally made it to Newport Beach go late to eat dinner somewhere else in balboa ; THANK GOODNESS . Because we stumbled upon San Shi Go . Their attention to detail. AMAZING! The food 20/10 . The service 20/10 Friday night made perfect with this place. The vibe is so chill and intimate . Perfect for dinner with loved ones, Or a first date. And the dessert chestnut social was out of this world. And if you're contemplating getting ice cream and like savory ice cream ; GET THE BLACK SESAME"
"Squeezed in there to beat the last call. I got a delicious no rice roll called Cucumber & Associates. There were a few other parties there but seating was no problem. TV's playing a basketball game, it wasn't the Celtics so need to say who was playing. Food and drinks came out quickly and service was great. Some come sushi-for-yourself."

"Their menu is extensive and lots of good appetizers.The quality of the fish is superb . The rolls are so tasty, sushi are so amazing, the price are fair. What I got was completely justifies the prices. The only thing last time I was there the oysters not really fresh I like usually. The atmosphere is very chill and comfortable,Service was incredible . A lot of parking! ."
"AYCE selection is so yummy and fresh.Service is good and very helpful. Lots of varieties that you can choose.The place is kinda small and they are pack.This is our 1st time visiting this year. Will coma back"
"We ordered takeout and it was really disappointing.We picked up our order, had 5 different rolls and also a seaweed salad.Unfortunately it was all bad and tasted bad.Myself, husband and daughter took a couple bites and we had to toss it.Later we were all nauseous and ended up with an upset stomach.Definitely wouldn't recommend this place.It was our first and will be our last.The individuals that were there and cooks were friendly. I surprised of the individuals making the food.I'm sure there's a recipe they follow but this is just bad.We tossed it and I had to take my daughter and self to doctor.It was food poisoning and we won't be coming or recommending this place.Enter at your own risk."
"Seems like this place is only for take-out. There are plenty of parkings around the area. There are bunch of chairs to sit and wait. The place is loud, the lady misheard the order number and didn't get the correct orders, but the food here is not bad."
"A little place tucked in a shopping center. The food was really good. We tried a few different rolls and mussels . We were pleasantly surprised how it good it was. We will definitely be back."
"I'm just not going to order the cucumber salad anymore.. First time ordering it. I did not know it was a few pieces of cucumber with some kind of oily dressing no flavor at all. It actually looked pretty sad."
"I came here for my birthday, and I was very delighted by the dishes! Tips:- Their wait staff isn't the most attentive, so I would work hard on flagging them down.- Waiting can be a PAIN on weekend nights. I highly suggest making a reservation a week in advance, or coming in half an hour early to be the first on the waitlist. I was second, and had to wait an hour and a half just to be seated.- If you plan to come with a large party, expect to have the exact number, because seating indoors is always packed!- Bar seating will get you in much faster, but you can only order off the sushi menu. Still worth it if you don't plan to buy any of the bowls.If you can make it through these hurdles, I'd say the food is very much worth the price. The ramen and chirashi bowls (both premium and non-premium) may seem pricey, but are definitely shareable between two people. The quality of their fish is so fresh that the price justifies it."
"My favorite sushi bar, and at an unexpected location. Didnt know they also have at little tokyo too. Their halibut is so good, it has its own unique flavors added like something zesty, and their yellowtail is so soft and even their albacore (which i find is hard to find thats not to fishy tasting). My favorite is their variety chirashi bowl, halibut sushi, yellowtail and albacore sushi. I got their mixed tempura like 4 times but no more unforunately. We love fried tempura, but the shrimp (which is everyones favorite) is TOO salty! Its always too salty, i wish they made it less salty and then we will order it. Idk why they cant just add less salt?? All 4 times, so i guess its their thing? Notba fancy looking place inside but their quality speaks for itself! Yumm"
"Super authentic Japanese spot with great sushi and bowls. It's very popular and there may be a wait, so I recommend calling in advance. The staff is very friendly and attentive. My boyfriend's dinner chirashi came with so much food! It's a little expensive but totally worth it."
"Ordered the chashu ramen and sesame chicken to go.The chasu ramen seems like their regular/most popular ramen which is a pork broth with bean sprouts, green onion, fried onion, nori, egg, pork chashu, and bamboo shoot. It hit the spot for a good ramen - I really liked the broth but I wish they included a little bit more pork in it.The sesame chicken were more like fried popcorn chicken. It wasn't as fried as I would have liked it, but I also think it was more due to eating it from take-out than it being a fried issue."

After trying numerous Omakase restaurants in the area, San Shi Go has remained my tried and true. They serve solidly consistent and fresh sushi, offer great omakase sushi options and honestly it's just fun, easy and relaxed... nothing set or pretentious and I love that. Omakase is exactly what it is but I love being able to request what you want as well. Always look forward to the flavored agedashi tofu they offer in the beginning. The service is overtly polite and the sushi chefs are tons of fun. Makoto and Yoshi are our guys!

Love this sushi spot! For a chain, this hits the spot.We were contemplating trying out a mom and pop sushi spot in the West Covina area, but have been let down a few times recently, so opted for a bigger chain-ish restaurant and it did not disappoint.We got there pretty late in the night, but service was still fantastic. We ordered sake, seaweed salad, blue crab sushi, salmon hand roll, washington roll and the green dragon roll. For a party of 2, we were STUFFED by the end of it. Everything was fresh and really hit the spot for us.I highly recommend and cannot wait to try the Alhambra location during HH!

Tried this spot out for the first time recently, and it was a great choice! While we were trying to decide what to order and settling on about 6 items, our server, Andres, was very helpful in telling us their rolls are pretty big and that we might want to order a coypleof things first. We did just that and ordered 2 rolls and 2 appetizers, their tofu and gyoza. Andres did us a favor! They weren't kidding. Their rolls are fairly large. It was the right call! We had the Amber Roll and a tempura crunch Roll. Everything was delicious, and service was on point. Thanks, Andres, for the ordering tip!

Best bang for your buck in this economy!They don't have any dine-in seating, so it's take out only. We usually get their lunch specials for the best deals (although their regular menu are extremely affordable already). They have a couple of options, but our go-to is the: Lunch Special A (chicken teriyaki with 1 spring roll, 2 gyozas, and a side salad) for only $6-$7. If we're feeling sushi, we usually opt for one of their combos with comes with soup and salad as well.Some tips:- Lunch specials are "all day, everyday," and it's a little menu taped to the counter near the register. You won't find it on the menu hung up, so search around on the photos tab their yelp page and you might find a picture from someone. - Call ahead to order and avoid the wait!

I can't believe I just tried this place! I heard about some fellow foodies driving a little further from home because they love their sushi, and it's been close to me this whole time. They have great happy hour specials all week, I highly recommend coming for happy hour. There's different deals that let you pick different items from specific menus, I tried the one that included an item from each menu. This is a great menu to split between two people (if you're on the slightly hungrier side and want a little taste of everything). Their crispy rice is a delicious appetizer and the quality of tuna is great, and I really enjoyed every roll as they are very flavorful and their sashimi is great as well. I was full and wanted to try out more rolls LOL as they seemed so flavorful and different.Service was very friendly and quick. It's a simple place and the attire is casual. Ideal for a casual lunch or dinner when in the mood for some good food (and s

I honestly didn't know what to order, but I am so glad I was walking around and found this establishment because everything was really great here. First off, the man that was running the entire store by himself was very kind and you could see that he works very hard.I wish I lived closer so that I could try the food more often, but I was honestly impressed with the taste and appearance cause I really wasn't expecting much at all. He also gave us a little candy at the end with the receipt...now come to think of it, I think it's still in one of my pockets because I don't remember eating it!

"First time at Show Sushi, and wow the service was great and the sushi was fresh!The oysters were freshly shucked with tobiko and sriracha on top. 5/5 don't skip the lemon ;)Sashimi and nigiri combo 5/5 so fresh and tasty. Love the marinated salmon and toro! !Seaweed salad was a bit skimping but it was still good 4/5They gave us two freebies on the house which was awesome and the service always checked in on us consistently. Lovely employees, thank you! For all of this food it was $210 before tip.Will be coming back when I'm in the area!"
"This place feels just like being in Japan. It's small but feels cozy and authentic. They have an amazing omakase here, and for such great value at only $50. I thought at first it wouldn't be filling enough, but to my surprise I felt even more than content by the end.You get to choose between Uni or TORO part of your set. I wanted both so I just ended up choosing TORO on the set, and ordering Uni on the side since it was cheaper to buy Uni al la carte than the market price of TORO. Also really enjoyed the A5 Wagyu and Anago. Flavors were immaculate.Servers were incredibly nice. They even gave us complimentary salmon collar as well as ice cream (probably since we one of the last people in the restaurant). Of note, omakase is only served on weekdays. We had reservations which was pretty crowded at 7, but by 8 the restaurant was more or less empty."
"I have been going to Tommy's for many many years. The ambiance hasn't changed in decades. It is what it is. Their sushi is off the charts great. You'll never have a better poke bowl as Tommy's poke is unique. Many of their specialty items are only found at Tommy's. I highly recommend them. And you will always get authentic service here. The staff is friendly."
"Ultramen restaurant is just amazing in every way you can think of. They have a fantastic selection of tasty dishes that are a feast for both your eyes and your stomach. And let's not forget about the ice-cold beer! It's definitely refreshing. Ultramen also creates a wonderful family vibe, making it a great spot for kids to have fun too. Thanks again for such a lovely evening!"
"Passed by the center and saw the signs for Thai food and Sushi and decided to gove it a try. Came here after volleyball for lunch and was happy they had dine-in lunch specials available everyday (including weekends!) from 11:30am-2:30pm. Got the Sashimi Lunch Box with 7 pieces for $20. It includes Chef's Choice sashimi served with cucumber and seaweed salad, gyoza (3 pieces), miso soup, and California Roll or Tuna Cut Roll (5pcs). It was a good spread and variety of food and filled me up. Service was prompt and friendly. Ambience was pretty nice with comfy booth seating (see pics below). Overall content with the taste of the food and plan to put this restaurant in my rotation thanks to the lunch specials."
"Everything was delicious. The service was exceptionally good. We enjoyed the cozy atmosphere inside. My family thoroughly enjoyed everything and will be back again."
"Loved it here. Our server (Ryan) was great and had some very good suggestions on the menu. Will definitely be coming back here for some more happy hour options and to explore the menu more."
"Great quality of fish with a lot of different variety to choose from. The service was very quick and attentive as well, checked in on us. Glad I found this spot and enjoyed authentic sushi!"
"I was craving sushi during a recent job training event and was not familiar with the area. Yelp led me to Sushiholic and I was not disappointed!The restaurant is small but tidy and the service is quick. They open promptly at 11:00 a.m. and offer a lunch special for $12.95.I decided to try the different sushi rolls all of which were fresh and filling. This became my go to place for the week. I recommend the roll combo for $11.95 which is a great deal.Plenty of parking in this outdoor shopping mall.Enjoy your visit!"
"Good service makes great food! I believe that the service can make or break a restaurant experience. This place is a cute and intimate restaurant located in a strip mall across from the Bingo place. The fish was fresh and the servings generous. Highly recommend."
"My brother-in-law from Missouri was in town for business. He texted "is my office anywhere near your house?". Turns out he was 5 minutes away. I picked him up after work and asked what CA cuisine he wanted. He picked sushi. I was trying to find somewhere cool and this place was near the beach and had great reviews. We walk in the door and a stench punches us in the face. It smelled so bad in here I was instantly embarrassed and whispered to my wife "lets go somewhere else". My brother-in-law said "nah, it just smells like somebody burnt something" so we stayed. Unlike every single other person who walked in the door we were ignored and stood there until somebody realized we weren't leaving and sat us. Our waiter didn't seem interested in serving our table either. Every other customer they yelled out greetings and treated them like stars. This is why I can't give the place 5 stars.Food though was 5 stars all the way. For being from Missouri my brother in law was a sushi pro. He ordered a sashimi bowl. He was very specific on what type of fish he wanted and the waiter kept arguing saying "it's chef's choice" he said "well, this is the choice he's going to make". Again, service was very odd here compared to the treatment other tables were getting.The bowl that arrived was a work of art. Beautiful presentation of different fish. We were all amazed. He loved it.I ordered the happy hour special. The description was you picked three different rolls and got a smaller portion of them, miso soup, salmon skin salad, and a drink. The waiter carries out this gigantic wooden structure and I'm thinking "wow, that must be a family platter". He then sits is down in front of me, it's my happy hour special! Damn! This was HUGE. Three beautiful rolls and all three tasted totally different. Most places these days everything tastes like a CA roll slathered in sauce. These all tasted distinct. The glutton I am I devoured my entire family platter. The salmon skin salad was the best I've had and I'd come back just for that! Other tables were getting these giant wooden staircase looking things that sushi was placed on. Presentations here were works of art. My wife ordered a salmon philly roll, some gyoza, and veggie tempura. She also enjoyed her meal.Besides the initial stench and the really bizarre service we all had a great time and enjoyed our food. I would definitely come back to try more things. The beautiful presentation alone is worth the trip."
"As soon as we entered we were immediately greeted. Everything that was recommended was delicious. We came an hour before closing so it wasn't busy at all. Overall we had a great experience and will definitely be back."
"This was a great find. We were driving around looking for a place to eat and this place came up. Although it had some bad reviews (one being particularly recent), we decided to give it a shot anyway. We were very surprised by a few things:- the thickness of the sashimi cut (see photo)- the lack of rice in the nigiri (generally at AYCE, they'll pack on rice to get you full quicker)- the promptness of service (one of the recent reviews highlighted the terrible service)- the quality of the fishWe're looking to come back and this time with more people and a bigger appetite."
"My experience was great at this restaurant. In 10 mins from my house. 1 tiny error and was corrected withint 2 minutes.Service was 100% the bestFood was 100% delicious Drinks was 100% priced greatThis place gets a 10/10By standards of Public Health with a grade "A".Keep up the great work.Danny Aguilar"
"Love love love this place! Best fatty tuna a girl can have! I highly recommend this spot! Ask for server Mod she's great!"
"Nice little restaurant and friendly service. Quick weekday dinner, the food satisfied our sushi craving. I forgot the names of the roll...I think one of them was the La Mirada roll, nevertheless all of them were delicious and I would order them again."
"For AYCE sushi this is the place to go! The fish quality compared to other AYCE places is truly top notch here. They have a limited on sashimi but otherwise all of the nigiri is unlimited. The actual size of the piece of sashimi on top of the rice is good sized; some places barely give you a piece and load it up with rice. The fish quality over all was good. The appetizers were amazing. We love a good crispy rice and garlic edamame and YUM! The cucumber salad is also delicious. Again for AYCE sushi this is phenomenal. Some of the staff were friendly/helpful and the restaurant itself needs some help. The bench cushions were split, the ceiling looks like somebody took a chunk out of it, and the bathroom.....oh boy it needs some love. The toilets were leaking so please get that fixed asap!"
"We have eaten the Bento Box many times. Every time it has been wonderful and plentiful. The service is great and efficient. We enjoy the location and never had to wait. We recommend ISE."
"Officially my favorite Omakase of 2025!!How are they not Michelin starred??Experience 5/5 - I loved the chef is friendly and would initiate conversations with us. He cracked a few jokes to lighten the mood and towards the end of the meal, we were all comfortable enough to sing each other happy birthdays haha. One key shoutout is the way staffs cleaning our table, filling the water, changing plates. They are so quiet and quick that when I turned my head back, the table is cleaned already without interrupting my conversation with my date. Food 5/5 - WOW! We loved every dish. As frequent Michelin restaurant goers, the ingredient quality and dishes' creativity surprised me. We loved EVERY dish. And I can't say this to some other currently Michelin starred restaurants. This was my first time hearing my husband saying he's gonna be sad when the last course is served. Lol. Parking is also a breeze. It's in a plaza with plenty of free parking spots.Menu changes per season. $300pp."
"Been a minute since I went but nothing has changed. Staff is still friendly, atmosphere is still chill and quaint, and food is still great. I need to remember to go more often like I used to. I wish they had late night happy hour."
"The Sushi is 10/10 in my opinion. I got the Gold Dragon Roll, Iron Monkey, Salmon Lover, and Super Crunchy. The service was ok. They need to work on people skills. The Ambiance is weird too because they just stare at you while you eat lol. The reason is because the place is tiny. My suggestion is just order to go."
"The food is amazing ... and only topped by the service from the waitress (Tran). Highly recommend and will be back soon."
