    Nice local place in a strip mall. Friendly service. Delicious food that came out quick. Moderate prices. Lots to choose from. Limited seating. Plenty of parking.

    Sushi burrito, Paradise Roll, Yellowtail, and Hot Tea.

    I stopped here one night after an appointment in Orange. It was late and close to closing, so I was the only seated guest, but I noticed they get a lot of to-go orders. It was an older couple, I'm guessing it was the owners. They were friendly. Everything I had was fresh. I also ordered the hot tea, and the woman told me it was her own special blend. It was delicious and I drank the whole pot before leaving! Thank you for a great dinner!

    Wednesday August 13, 2025 I visited KAI Sushi in Orange with my wife and our baby. It had been years since we been there. After months of not being able to eat sushi due to her pregnancy, my wife asked me to take her there. I remember the place had a great ambience, was clean and most important good food. We got there around 7:30pm, the place was empty, only the owner and a cook were there. We placed our order and waited at our table. About 20 min later a girl came in and placed an order for 1 single sushi roll and asked if she could eat it there, the owner of the restaurant said "no, we close soon" (service hours are from 10am to 9pm) It was only around 8pm. In my opinion she had plenty of time to eat 1 sushi roll before 9pm. Our food arrived at our table. At first glance it looked good, the taste was good but when we asked for hot souse the owner made a face and gave us just a tiny saucer for the 4 rolls we had ordered. That was something we were willing to overlook. We finish our food and I went up to the register to pay for my meal. My total for 4 rolls and 2 can sodas came up to $69.50. I pay $70. The owner with a very demanding tone as she game me my ¢50 change asked "you don't leave tip?". I said I'll leave it at the table. I only had $2 cash in my wallet so I asked my wife if she had any cash on her. She said she had a $10 in the car, I asked my wife to wait by the table. I placed the $2 on the table and stared to walk to exit and go to the car to get the other $10. Before I could set a foot outside I hear the lady saying to my wife in a very upset tone "only $2!! That's it $2?!? You pay $70 and only give $2" My wife looked at me as if asking for help. I said "excuse me? Why are you upset!" I never told her I was gonna go get more money from the car. "That all I have in cash, I'm sorry. But if you don't want them that's okay too". She extended her hand and said "here, you go now, never come back" as she handed back my $2. Now I understand why the place was so empty, when in the past was always busy. First, telling a customer that she can't eat there because they are closing soon, when she had more than one hour till closing time. Second, demanding a tip. I always tip and my intention was to do that, but I guess she didn't have the patience to wait and find out. As she requested I will never go back to that place. There's a lot of sushi restaurants better than KAI in OC, find one, be happy and stay away from KAI.

    Food and service is always nice n friendly. Food is soo good. Plenty of seating. Their Bento Box had terriyaki chicken and rice, spicy tuna roll 4pc, salad, tempura, and miso soup

    Ninja Roll

    Good healthy food! I had lunch with my daughter at Kai's Sushi today. My daughter ordered ninja special roll, and I ordered combo A with chicken teriyaki, California roll, and miso soup. We both enjoyed our food. Sushi was very good with superb quality of tuna and salmon and the rice was perfectly cooked. Great service, too, and the price was good for what it was worth. I told my boss and my coworkers about it, and my boss already knew about the restaurant. She said it gets pretty busy there, and she agreed about their good food. We would definitely eat at Kai's again!

    Food: We came here for afternoon tea, each ordering the tea set, and overall the food really stood…read moreout. The finger foods was Asian‑inspired, with flavors like black sesame, curry, and other creative twists that made each bite feel unique. Every piece was thoughtfully made, rich, and decadent without feeling repetitive, and the presentation was beautiful across the board. It definitely felt like a more elevated, modern take on afternoon tea. The tea itself, however, fell a bit short for me. I ordered a non‑caffeinated chrysanthemum tea, which unfortunately didn't have much depth or flavor. My friend's Darjeeling was better, but still not as rich or complex as I've had elsewhere. Given how strong the Asian inspiration is in the food, it would've been nice to see more thoughtful decaf tea options in that same direction, like decaf sencha, barley tea, or kuromamecha, to better match the concept. Price: The afternoon tea service is prix fixe at around $45 per person, which includes a curated set of savory bites, desserts, and a pot of tea. For the quality and creativity of the food, the price feels pretty reasonable compared to other OC tea services, though the tea itself didn't quite meet the same level as the food. Ambiance: The space is bright, warm, and inviting, with a nice amount of natural sunlight coming in that makes it feel cozy rather than stuffy. There are subtle Asian design elements woven into the décor, giving it a modern, slightly upscale feel without being overly formal. It's a great spot to catch up with friends and linger over tea. Service: Service was good, friendly, welcoming, and attentive without being overbearing. Even during a busy service, staff remained kind and approachable, which added to the overall relaxed vibe. Parking: Parking can take a bit of effort. Since it's located on a busy street in Orange, you may need to circle around the roundabout or park a little farther away and walk over. Not impossible, but definitely something to plan for, especially on weekends.

    This is a really cute place!…read more Service is wonderful and friendly. Food is flavorful and good proportion. Pricing is comparable for Old Town Orange. The place is clean and has nice decor. Nice ambiance!

I stopped by for an early dinner on my way back to San Diego last weekend. My friend and I each got the bulgogi garlic noodles (I added the egg but for $2.50 not sure it added a lot of flavor or value to the dish), shared the wings and an order fries. I also ordered a Vietnamese coffee on the cashier's recommendation--good suggestion, nice flavor without an overpowering amount of sugar. The wings were fantastic. Fries were fair, good portions and flavorful. I liked the noodles but weren't blown away. Everything was very soft, not a lot of textural change. The portion was generous with lots of bulgogi beef. The service was great--friendly and responsive. They have a small lot which was fine at 530pm on Sunday but probably problematic at lunch or normal dinner hours. My one complain was dirty dining room. Maybe it was just after the lunch rush, but the tables and floor could have used some wiping and the trash cans were full. Nice easy meal stop off the freeway at Orange.

When asked for menu, the server said sorry it's bc they don't have alot of menu books available but proceeded to give me 3 out of like 10 that I see they have. So they obviously had some! There were only 3 tables that had customers. After that taking the menus, we were again not attended to for 20-30minutes, noone brought us water or ever asked if we were ready. We had to flag them, once again. They were at least 3 servers so it's not like they were short of help when there's only 3 tables full at the time. It's like they were ignoring us. We proceeded to order 9 dishes that took awhile to come out. Only 1 dish came out which was the walnut shrimp and then more came out 15minutes later. How do they expect our big party to start eating with just 1 dish. We also had to wait literally 30minutes with nothing to eat for 3 dishes at the end when we finished everything else already. We had to ask about it 3 times. They need better timing in everything.... I noticed a couple tables having the same problems. As for the food, it was alright. The honey walnut shrimp and fried salted pepper shrimp was not crispy. The peking duck was actually great, one of the best. But it is not worth their service & other foods.. There are tons of chinese food options out there, we will not be coming back here. 2il
