What a hidden gem this is! I discovered them through DoorDash and I am so glad I got to try them out. Parking is free and plentiful right in front of the restaurant. There are some outdoor seatings and indoor seatings available. The service is prompt, efficient, and very friendly. My orders are always ready upon arrival. Usually in less than 10 minutes, if that. I super appreciate their sense of urgency. Now the food itself is also something noteworthy in my opinion. The chicken and avocado salad came with generous portions of perfectly ripe and sliced avocados. The salad dressing was something I didn't expect I enjoy so much. I am hooked! Please sell them by the gallons! I will buy it weekly! The avocado rolls also came with very generous portions of perfectly ripe avocados. Not a blemish in sight and very fresh and tasty. I actually ended up getting full just eating them by itself first. The grilled salmon bento is a must order. I loved how the salmon was cooked. The sauce wasn't too sweet, which I appreciated. I am glad I ordered mine with extra avocado. It made for a very filling meal. The dumplings were also delicious and the 4-pc California rolls were such a nice contrasting side kick. The salad came with their wonderful dressing too! I didn't expect the accompanying soup complimenting the meal so perfectly. The best $20 something meal I spent in awhile! I am looking forward to revisiting again this week and trying out their other menu items. The location is right off of 5 Freeway exit and in the same shopping center as Target and Kona Loa Coffee which makes for a really good spot to get food from on-the go.

I was in the area and looking for somewhere to have lunch a Yelp search provided Kayuga and it sounded good. I am not from the area so I navigated to the strip mall location. Upon walking in I was greeted quickly. I stood at the counter and read the menus on the walls. It was an indecisive day for me so I stood there for a while. I decided on the tuna poké with sauces on the side. You could tell this was a family owned business (my favorite to support). It's clean and has about 6 tables. I sat and waited for my bowl. It didn't take long. It was very fresh and flavorful. I appreciate the sauces on the side so I could make it how I like it. It was filling and just what I needed on a hot day. I'm glad I stumbled upon this restaurant and if I'm in the area I would definitely come again.

Lemon Drop rolls and sushi (5pcs)
Anthony P.

I've been to Kaguya Restaurant a few times before. It's a small sushi business, very nice and cozy. The services are friendly and welcoming. The service feels homemade freshly. When I saw the "promotion" on the wall menu, I decided to order the Lemon Drop Roll and 5 pieces of sushi. OMG! The portion was large and looked amazing. The salmon was fresh and soft. Everything tasted delicious. The rolls were really good too! The price was around $24 plus tax. $$ I would definitely come back again!

I got the mixed poke bowl with brown rice. It was a bit pricey at about $25 including tax and tip, but I think it was the best poke bowl I've ever had. The fish and vegetables were cold and the rice was warm with had a good amount of sweet vinegar. Great balance and freshness to the dish overall. Service was quick and friendly. The restaurant itself was small and clean. I will return.

Popcorn crawfish
Nolita N.

Stopped by here on a weekday to grab lunch with my sister and we were really pleased with our lunch. Their menu is really extensive and everything sounded so good, but we were trying not to over do it. The service was nice, it is for sure a mom and pop shop, so definitely support them if you can! The price was also reasonable as well, which I appreciated. I can't remember the names of everything we got, but everything was really good. We for sure got the popcorn crawfish, which I liked. The crunch from the crawfish added a nice texture profile to the roll. Overall, the space was clean, with no frills. I would go back for sure! They did get pretty busy during the lunch hour, and I can tell that they have regulars who frequent the spot.

Dragon, Salmon, Orange County and Crunch cut rolls
Jamie N.

Husband was interested in their buy 1 get 1 50% off any cut roll special. It was such a good deal we had to check it out. We arrived at opening so we virtually had the place to ourselves for the first hour before pick up orders and a few patrons started to trickle in. We got four rolls. Dragon & Orange Country rolls which were both a California base with different toppings. OC had masago while Dragon was the typical with avocado and eel. I chose really basic cut rolls since I love salmon and truly believe if a place has good buttery salmon, I would most likely return. My choice: - Salmon & Avocado - Crunch: crab meat, avocado, fried shrimp with crunch flakes While the price was appealing, the taste was lackluster. The crunch roll had a weird nutty aftertaste and the tempura flakes felt stale. It tasted like peanuts and it didn't quite complement the roll haha. The salmon was okay. Out of the four, the dragon roll was memorable, but it was the only one that was sauced. Overall, the meal was mid. While we left somewhat full, we didn't have any strong feelings about returning. Seemed like the bowls were more popular so maybe we give that a try next time.

We ordered rolls and sashimi on New Year's Eve and had a great experience. This is a cute, family-run restaurant, and the owner was extremely welcoming and kind. The rolls are very affordable and generously made, and the sashimi was thick and fresh. the overall atmosphere was warm and inviting. We enjoyed our meal and would definitely come back again.

Yellowtail sashimi
Michelle G.

Highly recommend! Peter was super helpful when ordering. He makes the rolls up front at counter. Very fresh and tasty. Got the baked scallop roll, honey roll, and yellowtail sashimi. So Yum! Got a bonus of Kaguya sushi. Ooh so good! Don't let the buy one get one 50% off all rolls fool you. This place is excellent! Plenty of seating inside for a quick bite or to go option. Very casual. Nice chill music.

If you are looking for a restaurant that can flawlessly handle a large group reservation, Kin Sushi…read moreabsolutely exceeded expectations. I initially reached out about reserving a table for 40+ people during a basketball tournament weekend and was told the manager would contact me back. Sure enough, she called promptly to confirm everything for our Saturday dinner reservation. The entire process was seamless and incredibly easy, especially considering this was a larger-than-normal party. Taizy handled everything professionally. She seamlessly added the extra guests without hesitation. Her only request was that we send over everyone's food orders ahead of time so the kitchen could prepare and ensure nobody had to wait too long. And wow -- they absolutely delivered. Every single order came out accurately and in a very timely fashion. No mistakes, no confusion, and the service was impeccable from start to finish. The servers were organized, attentive, and handled a very large group with ease. Service was truly 10/10. One of the reasons I chose Kin Sushi for a large group dinner was because the menu truly has something for everyone -- udon, sushi rolls, vegetarian rolls, bento boxes, chirashi, sashimi, and something for everyone. They even had Thai iced tea, which isn't normally something in you have in a Japanese restaurant. Parking was very easy, which is always appreciated when coordinating a large party, and there's a restroom conveniently located in the back. I'm beyond grateful for how well they handled our group, and I would absolutely return here again for future team dinners or large gatherings. Highly recommend!

We have become weekend regulars for lunch and often arrive at opening so we get the quiet before…read morethe lunch rush. It's honestly something I look forward to every weekend. Crazy to say that it's been a hallmark establishment in our rotation for probably the past year or more. More so these days since husband has been optimizing his meals for protein to help his workouts. iykyk. His go-to order consists of chicken teriyaki & sashimi combo and sashimi combo. He's consistent to the point that Luke, the owner, asks whether his order will be the same today, haha. The benefit with double sashimi is that it's pure protein with low calories, so for him it's great because he can reserve some calories for a cheat meal or snack later in the day. For me, I'm not counting macros, so I like to bounce around the menu depending on what I'm in the mood for. I usually go back and forth between hand or cut rolls and the poke salad, but sometimes I get a little adventurous and get my own sashimi. However, the benefit of my husband's meal is that I get to eat his albacore sashimi because he's not a fan, so I usually opt for something else when I'm getting my own thing. Overall, my repeat favorites have been the poke salad, spider roll, salmon lemon roll and anything with yellowtail. My typical go to is anything with salmon sashimi, but Koko's yellowtail is so buttery that I'm a new fan of anything with it. Even as regulars, I still look forward to having a meal here. Plus, the price is unbeatable for their combo meals and it's very reasonable. The combination meals come with salad, miso soup and rice so it satisfies and fills the tummy.

Why it took me so long to give this place a shot I'm not sure. It's your typical neighborhood sushi…read morespot with great pricing, great food, and great service. Very clean inside with table and bar seating. My favorite was the spicy miso yellowtail roll for sure. Aloha roll was good, but I'd go with a baked salmon roll next time I want a warm roll. Baked mussels and miso soup were top tier. Highly recommend this place!

It was a Friday night and surprisingly we were sat pretty quick. Started with edamame and they were very good and presented nicely. The California roll wasn't anything to write home about but they were large. The crunch roll was one of my favorite I have ever had but a tad on the sweet side. I liked that it wasn't too crunchy like some rolls are. It is surgical in its layers of crunch. Another roll I liked was the dragon roll. The rolls are on the larger side which is good but they match the price. The Tonkotsu ramen was pretty bland so I recommend adding some spice or sauce to spruce up the broth but the ingredients were all tasty. Overall it's a decent place to get sushi. Service was excellent and quick and they always checked on us to make sure we had everything we needed. Worth checking out if you are close by but I was neither super impressed nor upset we ate there either.

Discovered this gem on Postmates and I'm so glad I took a leap of faith! It's definitely risen to…read morethe top sushi spot for me in my area. I generally get simple nigiri and fresh sushi rolls. I tried the Only You and Crunch Mania Roll alongside some fresh sushi like the Ama Ebi, Uni, Salmon belly, and Hotate sushi. WOW wow wow. Each and every piece was divine. And I tried to savor every bite. I love when restaurants give you the Ama Ebi fried head, this place takes the cake for me. Wasn't too greasy at all! I thought presentation for delivery wasn't too bad and the size of the cut for the rolls weren't messy and uneven. All in all, I'll be happy to explore more on the menu but at least I know from what I ordered, this place has got it down.

At first the chefs were not even in the bar area. When they finally arrived they were more interested in online orders instead of preparing food for customers who are right infront of them. (I see other reviewers have also experienced the same) We were not happy, when discussing whether to leave instead of continue to wait, the owner kept looking at us and never once came over to see how to mediate the situation. We finally flagged the server and told them to cancel everything. The owner said "Oh no, they are leaving?" Very rude, of course we left we had been seated an hour and did not receive any food! We could see the chef area they didn't even START making our food. I can understand it was late, but if you do not have the hands on deck do not offer a seat to customers looking to dine in. I am not sure why I am surprised, years ago I tried to eat here and had a terrible experience. About 4 years ago I walked in to get a table for one and the female owner kept looking at me and walking away. I was waiting probably 20 minutes at the front desk, and gave up since no one acknowledged me (other than uncomfortable glares from the owner.) Terrible service. Stay away, much better sushi in the city, not sure why we decided to go here, but will not make that mistake again.

A little disappointed. I'm usually not one to leave negative reviews, especially for Japanese…read morerestaurants, but I feel like they have potential to do better -- which is why I wanted to leave an honest review. FYI -- no photos because we were busy with a cranky toddler. First, the service was genuinely great. The sweetest lady helped us with the menu and served our food, and we really appreciated her kindness. We were also given complimentary edamame, which was thoughtful, although it was bland, dry, and cold -- almost like it had been sitting in the fridge for a while. Since it was complimentary, we didn't think too much of it. For the mains, we ordered the beef teriyaki and chicken teriyaki bento specials. Unfortunately, both proteins were sliced extremely thin. The chicken especially had a jerky-like texture, and both the chicken and beef lacked flavor. After reading other reviews, they had similar experience. The teriyaki sauce itself was also pretty bland. The tempura was okay, but the tempura dipping sauce tasted watered down and lacked the usual savory depth you'd expect. The one standout was the roll topped with salmon and avocado with spicy tuna inside. It was presented beautifully and tasted fresh and well-balanced. Based on this, I honestly think rolls are what they do best. I really hope they improve the preparation and seasoning of the chicken and beef because it was a major turnoff -- and this is coming from someone who eats pretty much everything. It's hard to justify paying around $22 for a bento when the main protein feels flavorless and insubstantial. With so many good Japanese resto in Lake Forest, I would skip this until the proteins are fixed.
