So....kicking myself for not going sooner. We took some friends here tonight after reading many positive reviews. Ive lived near here for years and never went. Shame on me. Everything was great, plus the owner pulled out some fresh cold sake shots for everyone there - added points. All the fish was extremely fresh (and we have a good selection in Orange County of decent sushi) and not a single specialty roll (though their standard eel avocado roll was quite good) or sashimi did we not all say mmm that was good. Check this place out. They care about you having a good experience. The fact that the owner was on the floor keeping an eye on things was an added plus as well.

Yes! A proper sushi and hybrid sit-down place that doesnt require a drive to Brea or Fullerton. There are a lot of fantastic standard American staples like rolls, ceviche and etc; asking with Korean and Japanese classics like al bap (a caviar/roe mixed rice) , katsu, eel and sashimi/nigiri choices. Super excited to see this place fully open.

In my opinion all the food is great but I especially liked the uni pasta. Its probably my favorite and compared to other places that serve this dish its done really good here. The decor and ambiance is really nice also. You cant go wrong with this place, that is of course unless you dont like Japanese food.

In town on a business trip. Decided to dine here based on the reviews. This place is indeed amazing. Super delicious sushi, big rolls, and amazing friendly staff. After sushi you definitely have to try the Mochi Ice Cream dessert! Definitely dining here again before I depart town.

We love kanji sushi restaurant. Great place. T the owner always remembers us. My wife loves the peach sake, I have asahi beer, very dry. Today we had the combo. Very delicious ghoza, salmon, sushi, and tempura. Service great..

The Happy hour menu is fun! What a great way to try food that you might not typically try! Garlic edamame, korokke, takoyaki, gyoza... It was all very good and the waiter was friendly and accommodating. Loved the sushi so much!

Excellent "hole in the wall" sushi place. Im sure its only not busy because of its location. Top notch, always fresh sushi. Great selection of beer & sake. Can be a bit pricey, but worth it for quality sushi.

amazing fish and great service. Sit at the sushi bar, order drinks, find out if the chefs wants a beer (buy him one) and order all the fresh fish. start with yellow tail, salmon and tuna. ask whats next.

It was good. Sashimi was thick cut and delicious, the salmon was a bit tough which is odd but still good. Some things we ended up with that we didnt order and they were on the house, no problem.

I really liked this place because the owner was very attentive and made great suggestions. The sushi is actually really good and they just added a happy hour menu. Try the spicy edamame.

The food quality was great the few times Ive been in for lunch. Dining in was a quiet and comfortable experience. Mounted TVs playing sports made it all the more enjoyable.

Great tasting rolls, had a nice selection. Place looked very nice after the remodel. Food tasted fresh and very flavorful. Price reflects so because all we had were rolls.

While missing the variety of unique and interesting Japanese beers that the former sushi place here had, its standard of quality for great sushi has matched or exceeded.

Great sushi place with an amazing array of appetizers. Now with the all you can eat option you can try them all! Tight parking though, so best to come early.

Good local sushi place. The owners enjoy what they do and it shows in the creativity of the menu. Lots of rolls, ramen, combinations, etc available.
