    I am blown away once again. Shout out to Dana for a top tier service. The fish? unreal. Everything tasted fresh, clean, and high quality. I brought my sister, who has never been a fan of raw fish, and she said it wasn't fishy at all. As mentioned in my previous review, the toro melts in your mouth. The orion drift is smooth, crisp, and goes perfectly with the meal. Their spicy garlic edamame is one of the best I have ever had. Please open a location in Irvine.

    Have driven past this place and wanted to give it a try. Tried a dinner bento and some sushi rolls. I have to say that the rolls were ok with some being better than others. The dinner bento was actually quite good and I loved the bbq beef. Prices were very reasonable and quality was good. I'm not going to say it's a top notch sushi restaurant but overall for the price and service I would recommend you give them a try.

    What a fantastic experience! I am sad that I did not try this place sooner. I made a reservation for 2 people last Friday at 5:30. The service was wonderful. We were instantly given some complimentary miso soup while we looked over the menu. The server had informed us that the salmon was super fresh and just arrived. We tried so many things! We had garlic edamame, mixed tempura, salmon carpaccio, Philadelphia roll, lovely salmon roll, rainbow roll, and 2 spicy items featuring spicy tuna. Everything was so flavorful!! The lovely salmon roll was my favorite. The lemon was so refreshing with the fresh salmon. The soju drinks were also lovely. We had passion fruit and they let us try the raspberry. We will definitely come back again. It was romantic and the perfect pre valentines date night.

    The special included tempura miso, and six rolls of our choice on the beautiful display! This was a great deal for our party at four. Loved the tempura. Wished the miso would've had some tofu in it although the miso was tasty. Great service. The rolls were good with fresh fish.

    The sushi was really good and the fish is great quality. The staff is genuinely friendly, which makes the experience even better. You can tell they care about what they do, and they make you feel welcome whether you're dining in or grabbing takeout. That said, it's a little on the pricier side. Also, the edamame and udon were just okay, nothing bad, just not super memorable. Overall, if you're craving fresh sushi and good welcoming vibes, this is definitely a good place.

    Amazing sushi spot my go to for Friday night !!!! I love ordering the seared blue fin tuna roll !

    This place is one of my favorite sushi spots. You wouldn't expect it from the outside, it it's a great cozy place with a good vibe and a massive amount of options. They have so many creative rolls here, and if you have sushi-shy people who are afraid of raw fish, they have plenty of cooked/baked roll options. If you're like me and like spice, they have plenty of spicy options too. And of course they have all the classics. They also have specials. I think these do not show on the online menu?

    We went for dinner on a Friday evening. There is a ton of parking available. The ambiance is simple and quaint. A very comfortable Japanese restaurant. You can tell that they have a lot of repeat customers by the way the staff greets so many of them by name. You can't beat the personal touch. We got mixed tempura which was crispy and light batter with delicious and sweet vegetables and shrimp. Perfect way to start our meal. Next up was a yellow submarine sushi roll. It was almost too pretty to eat. The jalapeños and the yellowtail along with a tropical flower made the roll really stand out. It was refreshing and delicious. The quality of yellowtail told us we weren't going to be prepared for the freshness of the rest of the sashimi and sushi we had ordered. We had the sashimi mix next. Large, thick cut and some of the freshest sashimi ever was in front of us. We added the Toro which was well worth the extra $5. We couldn't get over how each piece melted in our mouths. Last we had the 10 piece sushi mix. The presentation was stunning and once again the freshness of the sashimi was amazing. Dinner was exceptional and the staff was amazingly friendly and welcoming. Cannot wait to go back.

    I was today years old when I learned that some Japanese restaurants are closed on Sundays. Luckily Ginzaya bucks that trend. I came, I saw, I ATE THAT. Sushi is incredibly fresh, and the presentation is spot on. Bonus points for having a kids menu! Extra credit for having TVs showing Sunday Night Football. Lowkey spot with local vibes...and the vibes were high. Service was top notch, super friendly and anticipated what we needed before needing to call for them.

    This place is located in a litte strip mall with plenty of parking and it's easy to find! Inside is beautifully decorated and has a chill vibe with it. You're greeted very warmly here and feel very welcomed as soon as you entered. And the welcomed feeling stays throughout your stay! The quality of the food is amazing! Starting with the tempura! It's crispy perfectly cooked, and definitely full of flavor! The miso soup is quite delicious. Very comforting and warm. For the nigiri and sashimi mix, we definitely made sure to do the belly upgrade for $5 more each. So this gave us salmon belly and tuna belly! The quality of the sushi was amazing! Literally melts in your mouth, and bursting with flavor. I'm usually not a fan of escolar, but their escolar was amazing! The Yellow Submarine roll was perfect, with the yellowtail, jalapeno, a touch of hot sauce, couldn't be any better. This place is fantastic! Make your way over if you can!

    Mackerel and blue fin tuna sashimi
    Michie H.

    The best sushi in La Mirada! All the staff is so friendly and attentive. The ambiance is very warm and inviting-perfect for a date or family dinner. We love sitting at the sushi bar where we can watch them make the sushi and talk to the best sushi chefs!

    Otoro Sashimi
    Mike H.

    It had to be my lucky day....I walked into my fave sushi spot and BAM!!!! Otoro sashimi is on the menu!!! I have never had better tasting sashimi anywhere in the world. They had all three of the most delicious bluefin cuts; we could have stayed all day but I wouldn't have left any for the rest of you!! 10/10 you will be happy you tried it

    Great experience at Show Sushi. I ordered the salmon bowl and spicy edamame. both were very tasty…read moreand well prepared. The flavors were on point and everything felt fresh. Service was excellent. The staff was very polite, attentive, and kept checking in to make sure everything was good, which I really appreciated. There is a great music on the background and nice vibe. Overall, a very solid spot with good food and great service. Highly recommended.

    I'll start with a positive. The food is good, and 99% of the service is good. Hence the stars…read more However, twice, I've been met by a rude and somewhat bullying waiter who insisted that I fill out a waiting list rather than simply be seated in the near-empty restaurant. The first time, I was the only customer waiting. I asked why I would fill out a list when (1) I'd been to this restaurant dozens of times and was never asked to do so; (2) no one was waiting; and (3) the place was nearly empty. The waiter was confrontational and insisted I must fill out the list. He said if I wouldn't, I could leave, so I left. I felt bad for the owners and decided not to leave a negative review, thinking it was a one-off error. After intervening good experiences with other waitstaff, I returned today. Unfortunately, I encountered the same rude waiter. There were lots of empty tables but rather than seat me, he approached and told me to sign in. I pointed out the absurdity, and again he said I could leave! I felt bad the business would lose customers due to one obnoxious waiter, so I asked to speak with the manager. When the waiter said the manager wasn't available, I found her myself. To my surprise, the manager seemed nonplussed -- as though she dealt with the waiter before and felt defeated. It didn't end there. While I discussed this with the manager, the waiter hovered around, attempting to intervene and argue. When he was asked to go away, he stood in different parts of the restaurant to give us "hard looks." It was ridiculous and there is zero chance I will return. No one needs this kind of bullying and negativity with lunch.

    First time checking in to this restaurant in Buena Park . Surprisingly "the all you can eat "…read moreworth every dollar. Went in a for a date night with my husband and we ate so much sashimi, they are so fresh, tasty and flavorful. We also ordered shrimp and soft crab tempura. They are all made fresh, so hot that the jiuce spilled out and I burned my Here what I don't recommend is the Tonkatsu Ramen it noodles were all stick together, the pork was so tough, and the soup tasted nothing but salty water run down soup, and it wasn't hot but warm We also ate a few chicken skewers with dark meat and chicken balls, not bad. But we prefer a mixture of sushi and sashimi. My favorite was the Uni and Salmon belly, only 1 piece per person because it tasted like heaven, that fatty and fresh taste that melted in your mouth I wanted to come back again soon ~!!!!! We went there early around 6ish, so we got seated right away. If you arrived later, there's a waiting. The inside was cool and packed with people seating inside and outside the patio. Gotta try it, you won't regret it, just order the right stuff We'll be back soon -!!!!

    Food wise, Aburi is pretty solid with an overwhelmingly huge selection for their menu…read more Everything else wise, you would think that this is a high school football fundraiser where the players have to run the restaurant for a day. I'm not pointing fingers at anyone, not the servers, nor the chefs but whatever system they got going on has got to be some sort of social experiment. Ordering on the tablet is pretty straight forward and seems like it would be a good system. However, once you place your order, I think the tablet bets your order on a hand of blackjack and depending on if it wins or loses, you may or may not receive that order. We went around closing and were very aware of last call at 9:30 and we placed our orders with this in mind. 9:30 rolls around and we're expecting more food but I look up and see the sushi chefs packing up. We ask our server where the rest of our orders are that are definitely registered in the tablet and she says sorry the kitchen is closed. Paying the full price just to pick at the ginger and little tempura flakes like a starving little vulture was the lowest point of my day and I feel like I got ripped off and ripped a new one by Aburi. Not to be a Karen but do better Aburi.
