I decided to give Tabi-Ji a try for dinner during a work trip, and it exceeded expectations despite the restaurant being quiet at 7:30 PM. We had made reservations for 8:30 but surprised we weren't able to get a table at 7:30. Based on the restaurant's positive reviews, we decided to give it a try--and it didn't disappoint.My colleague and I chose the hibachi grill experience and were entertained by our chef who prepared our meals to perfection. Our meals started with salads served with ginger and sweet dressings on the side, both of which were delicious. The chicken broth soup was equally flavorful.I ordered the steak and shrimp combination with extra fried rice, and the portions were generous and satisfying. They meals came with a shrimp appetizer. Along with the entree, vegetables were also grilled and served. Overall, I highly recommend Tabi-Ji for its great food. I would like to visit again and try their sushi menu.

Rating: 3.5 stars but I rounded down to 3.I haven't been here in years and we were looking to have something different so we decided to revisit Tabi-Ji. We had a 6:00pm reservation on a weeknight and were seated at the Teppanyaki table immediately. One other couple arrived ten minutes later and for some reason things didn't really get started until almost 6:25pm. The salad with ginger dressing and miso soup were good. I saw on the wine list that they had an Eberle red wine which is not for sale in regular retail channels so I ordered a glass. Unfortunately it was somewhere between starting to go bad and bad so I sent it back and ordered a glass of cabernet which was good. My girlfriend was looking at the sushi list and was curious about the fatty tuna. I said Toro was melt in your mouth delicious and ordered some for her to try. It was "market price" at $7.50 per piece which seemed a little high but we enjoyed a few pieces anyway. However, the wasabi in the sauce on top was a little too strong and overpowered the Toro. The fried rice with egg and garlic butter was great and our chef did the traditional "spinning egg toss and hat catch" and made the traditional beating rice heart display. While preparing the veggies, our chef also did the traditional onion volcano. I had the Land Meets Ocean which is New York steak and a lobster tail and my girlfriend had the twin lobster tails. They give you the standard ginger and mustard sauces and I always like to also get srircha for the steak. The entrees and shrimp appetizer were good but the vegetable portion seemed kind of small. Our chef was fun and service was good. Overall it was a good meal although I left feeling a little meh.

We came back for Valentine's Day and despite it being pretty busy we received amazing service and the food and sake were great! It was so good that I devoured my entire meal and forgot to take any pics. I ordered the beef teriyaki, shrimp tempura and sashimi combo. The steak was so tender and juicy and my whole meal was just as fantastic as the first visit. This time I tried the ocean crunch roll and it was crispy and delicious! I ordered hot sake and it was perfect with my meal. Thank you also to the host that is so friendly and he really does a great job and gives percent. This was a great way to spend Valentine's Day!

Where do we even start. I love how this is authentically Japanese owned and has been a family business since the 70s.I cannot express how amazing the staff are. Michelle was attentive, kind and pleasant as our server. You must ask for her when you come in. Jason I have no clue what his role is but he feels like the face of Tabi-Ji and is such a blast. I would definitely hang out with these two if I get a chance.I always order nigiri and not much of a roll person so my review will be mainly that type of sushi. You know how you normally dip the sushi in soy sauce well not here folks. The rice is perfectly seasoned and has enough of a salt profile to go perfectly with the seafood item of your choice, it reminds me of onigiri rice. They have the perfect amount of wasabi, grated ginger or whatever compliments your fish. You can just pop one in your mouth and you know it will be the perfect bite.The wife gets their sukiyaki combo and I just love the fried rice they have because it's the same rice as the tepanyaki, the amount of butter on it is so damn good. The amount of food you get for the combo is a ton and well worth it. Also, by far our favorite sukiyaki is from here. As part of the combo meal you get your choice of soup and a salad. I can't decide if I like the miso soup or their clear broth better. Someone will have to comment here and tell me what you think or prefer?As for appetizers we get the calamari and it comes in perfect little chunks.I can't wait to come back, please have ankimo again

Such a great dinner date restaurant. Perfect for celebrating anything or just to satisfy a sushi/teppanyaki craving. The staff is great and we always have a great time! It was such a pleasure getting to meet the owner as he came by the tables ensuring everyone enjoyed the food. My wife and I are ready to plan another dinner date night already!

Went for dinner with my family. I had Nigiri salmon, seabream, tuna with a crunchy roll. Wife has the salmon roll, mango roll and my son has the beef teriyaki bento box. Let me just say some of the freshest sushi I have ever had. The seasoning and flavor of the fish was amazing and the best I have ever had. I recommend eating the nigiri as it's served. Don't add soy sauce or anything else to it. Chefs here are in a whole different level. Service was great and our server was very attentive and made sure all of our needs were met. Very inexpensive compared to other sushi spots. 10 out of 10 I recommend this place.

We used to go to Tabi-Ji's in Anaheim when we were kids. Imagine my surprise when I found out that they had a location in Orange. I live in San Diego but I still have family in Orange County. I told them all about it and we all went to Tabi-Ji's. I made reservations on line and because there were 6 of us, I did have to use a credit card. When we arrived, we were seated promptly. This restaurant also has a couple of hibachi tables if you want that. We were there for the authentic Japanese food. We are all Japanese Americans so our expectations are a little higher. Not a lot just a little. Haha. I ordered the teriyaki scallops and tempura. All of our meals were served with authentic miso soup, sunomono, and salad(with the good ginger dressing). The tempura was fresh, crispy, and delicious. The scallops were so good. My 97 year old Auntie ordered Futomaki and she said it was so good. She makes Futomaki so that's a compliment. My 89 year old mother enjoyed her tempura too. Overall everyone enjoyed all of their meals. We were telling our server that we used to go to the restaurant when they were in Anaheim. She told the owner Mr. Yamamoto and he came out to meet us. He was the nicest guy. He asked us if we liked Tsukomono (salt pickled cabbage). Of course we do, and it was delicious. Everyone there was so nice, we will be back!

The food and service was absolutely phenomenal! Jason is truly so talented and good at what he does, he is so hospitable and personable. Our serve Noriko handled our food allergies to all tree nuts, sesame seeds, shellfish, and wheat/gluten perfectly without a problem. I am definitely looking forward to dining here again in the future :).
