I'll be real, this spot wasn't in the plans for my girlfriend's birthday but schedules changed and so plans had to chance. Spent a good amount of time browsing Yelp and OpenTable to find a new spot to end the night. Came across TEN on yelp and I'm glad I found this spot. I made a reservation and was a little late due to a previous plan that ended a little later than expected. They sat us right away regardless and the owner greeted us. I asked Brian what his choice of drink is and the crazy thing is I scanned the menu and this drink caught my eye, which he then recommended as his go to, the Yuz it or Lose it. My girlfriend had the Lychee Rose. Started with the Chicken Gyoza and Japanese Nachos for appetizers and ordered the BG roll and Keoni roll. Throughout the night Brian would stop by and made conversation with us a couple times, super attentive and super friendly! At the end of the night Brian brought out a surprise Melted Chocolate Cake with Ice cream and chocolate drizzle & whipped cream on the side, along with what tasted like two shots that tasted like melon? I'm not sure but they were a 5/5! There is a good amount of seating inside and outside. The mix they had playing through the restaurant was absolute fire and it isn't too loud either, you can still hold a conversation without having to raise your voice. They have a parking structure and you'll receive a parking ticket which TEN validates. Yuz it or Lose it: 5/5 A very refreshing and balanced drink. Lychee Rose: 5/5 On the sweeter side but still balanced and the lychee garnish is a nice touch to end the drink Japanese Nachos: 5/5 I literally had to fight the urge to not share these with my girlfriend they're a party in your mouth. (We subbed the spicy tuna for regular tuna) Chicken Gyoza: 5/5 I'm normally a pork gyoza type of person but these were great, nice and juicy and whatever sauce they have at the bottom of the dish was bomb. I literally poured that sauce into my dipping cup instead of the soy sauce that is available BG Roll: 5/5 This roll is tasty and very fresh since there are no cooked items in/on it and the jalapeños on top are a nice touch as well, especially with a little of that sauce from the Chicken Gyoza dish Keoni Roll: 5/5 The eel sauce is a nice touch to this roll along with the jalapeño sauce that they spread on the plate. Shoutout to Brian again! You've earned repeat customers! We will be back read more

I came here with my girlfriend to celebrate her birthday and it was our first time trying this restaurant and it did not disappoint. The restaurant atmosphere is very nice and great for date nights. The service was top notch as well. We had the nachos, handroll, Mongolian beef, and the black dragon roll, all of the food was sooo good and we were left very satisfied. Brian the very tall handsome guy took good care of us and definitely added to our spectacular experience! read more

Super dope vibe! What started out as a potential not great night (had a reservation, showed up early and had to wait) ended up being a great night due to the support of our hostess Precious, and our waitress Lilly. Food was amazing, ambience was great, and service was on point. Would definitely be back to enjoy the atmosphere! read more

Service was great. My dad and I came here for lunch for the first time and I was impressed by the decor as well as the great service at the Bar. My dad enjoyed an IPA and I enjoyed their garlicky pasta. I even took some home and the leftovers were fantastic! My dad really liked their cucumber salad however I wasn't as much of a fan due to the ginger taste. But they were pickled nicely. Their spicy garlic edamame was also perfect. Overall I enjoyed this light lunch and will definitely come back. read more

This place is consistently good! Pretty large seating area with indoor and outdoor patio seating. Cool Asian motif. SERVICE: We got here a little early for our reservation, but they got us seated quickly. Very nice server and very attentive. Food came fast! FOOD: We tried the orange chicken and some sushi (El Niño) - Superb!! I would have eaten more sushi but one was enough. This is a must try place if you are in the area! read more

Nice outdoor seating next to the bar. The waitress was great and helpful. The food was great and delicious. The fish was fresh and the rolls were so good! The food does take a bit longer to come out, maybe because we ordered a lot of foods, but the waitress was good on checking in on us for it. Highly recommend coming, there is a parking structure, don't forget to get your tickets validated. read more

Came here because the vibe was giving dim lights, good drinks, flirt across the table -- and it absolutely delivered. We shared the crispy rice, forbidden roll, tuna hand roll, and honey walnut shrimp, and everything was seriously delicious. This is one of those places that looks pretty enough for photos but actually backs it up with flavor. The food hit, the atmosphere was intimate, and it felt like the kind of spot you linger at a little longer than planned. Only tiny note: the tuna hand roll was delicious but smaller than expected -- more "tease" than "main event." Overall? Sexy vibes, great food, perfect for a date night you don't want to end early. Would 100% come back. read more

Ten Sushi is aptly named, from the moment we walked in it was a 10/10 experience! My bf and I celebrated our anniversary here and everyone in the building made it so special or server Emilee was INCREDIBLE! It was our first time visiting and she was very knowledgeable and helpful in making our selections. She also had such an upbeat vibe that really kept the night going! The food... wow. Some of the best chili garlic edamame we've ever had and that is a staple in our order in many places! We got the Toro Taku, El Niño Roll, and Wok Toasted Salmon (with a side of brown rice). The portions were perfect for sharing and still having some left overs. The drinks didn't let us down either, we tired the Yuki Mori, Skinny Dragon, and Gringo Ringo. The Skinny Dragon is hands down one of my favorite cocktails I've had EVER. read more

Came here for a birthday celebration with a reservation. Upon arrival we were sat down quickly and were able to be attended fairly quick Our server was very kind and filled out waters throughout the service. She was very knowledgeable about the menu and knew which rolls were popular The food was amazing each roll had the perfect balance of fish and rice. They cama in 10 pieces and filled us up! We were a party of three girls and also ordered the cod fish in the end. The ambiance was funky lit, however, the music choice was questionable as they were playing rap. Overall great experience and food quality! read more

Always my go to spot. The vibes are unmatched and the service never misses. I've been coming here for years, even back at their previous location, so I've seen this place grow and evolve and it just keeps getting better. The only thing that caught me off guard this time was the price increase. I get it, rents are tough and everything has gone up, but I'd be lying if I said I wasn't a little speechless when I saw it. Loyal customers notice those things. Other than that everything was great as always. Still one of my favorite places and I'll keep coming back. Just hoping the prices stay reasonable because this place deserves to keep its regulars.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​ read more

My wife and I came to Ten Sushi in Irvine with another couple for a double date. We are all big sushi fans and wanted to try something new, and this spot looked like a great choice. The vibe is a little more on the fancy side but still really comfortable. We started with the Chili Garlic Edamame, Miso Soup, Cucumber Salad, and Gyoza. The Gyoza was crunchy and full of flavor with a good soy ponzu sauce. The Cucumber Salad had that nice vinegar and pickle taste, small portion but really refreshing. The Miso Soup had a lot of green onions, seaweed, and big chunks of tofu which was nice to see and added good flavor. My favorite appetizer was the Chili Garlic Edamame because it had the perfect mix of spice and garlic and was great for sharing. For rolls we ordered the Forbidden, Spicy Domo, Keoni, Ten Tation, Lion King, and the Seared Salmon Lime but we switched the salmon for tuna. Every roll had great flavor and texture. The Lion King was probably the table favorite with the rock shrimp on top and the sauce that came with it. My personal favorite was the Spicy Domo because of the crunch from the tempura flakes and the little tang from the sauce. The Ten Tation Roll was also really good with the crispy shrimp tempura and the sauce pairing nicely with the tuna and salmon. Our server Diane was super kind and attentive the whole night and made sure everything came out right, even accommodating our request to switch the fish. Overall, Ten Sushi was a great! Pricing is high for sure. The food was good, the service was awesome, and the atmosphere made it a really nice spot for a date night and some Halloween stuff too. . A little more upscale and more expensive for kind of above average sushi but it's better than your everyday sushi place but I'd worth trying out! read more

Came here again. I had the lychee rose cocktail which was tasty. The gringo ringo was my fav. The tequila mockingbird was a bit strong. Also got the shishito peppers which were great as well as the crispy rice balls. For entrees we had the yellowtail jalapeño which was tasty. My favorite was the waygu with crispy shallots & vinegarette. Service & ambiance were both still great. read more

Located in a very beautiful business complex! There are fire pits nearby, and the restaurant itself is very beautiful! Food plating was also excellent- everything looked extremely aesthetic! Didn't feel the taste of any of the dishes were particularly special or stood out, and sashimi slices looked like half the size of typical ones we have in restaurants so it didn't feel very worth it. Service was also good, it isn't very fast and was difficult to flag down staff but it's a great place if you have lots of time and looking for an aesthetic place to eat!! read more

TEN in Irvine consistently delivers an exceptional dining experience that keeps me coming back time and time again. From the moment you walk in, you're welcomed with genuine warmth--there's an energy here that immediately sets the tone for a great meal. The food is outstanding. The Chicken Lo Mein is always perfectly prepared--flavorful, well-balanced, and cooked just right every time. And the General Ten's Chicken is a standout--crispy, bold, and packed with flavor without ever being overpowering. It's clear there's real attention to detail in every dish that comes out of the kitchen. Their Happy Hour is phenomenal, offering a great mix of quality, value, and atmosphere that makes it a go-to spot whether you're unwinding after work or meeting up with friends. But what truly elevates TEN is the hospitality and service. Every visit, I'm greeted with a smile and treated like a valued guest. That consistency doesn't happen by accident--it's a direct reflection of the leadership. General Manager Anai Escamilla does an incredible job setting the standard. She leads by example, and it shows in every interaction with the staff. The team is attentive, welcoming, and clearly takes pride in delivering a great experience. TEN isn't just a place to eat--it's a place where great food meets genuinely exceptional service. read more

Came here for a late dinner and tried something new finally. We shared the Miso Sea bass which we both really enjoyed. The portion size was generous, and the edamame sauce with the chili crunch all came together well. We also tried the Keoni sushi roll for the first time. I can't believe I'd never had it! It was kind of like a fancier spicy tuna roll. I definitely recommend! read more

Lilly D our server was lousy she behaved like she was still in training, but said she had worked there for awhile. She kept getting my order so mixed up I had to repeat it 3 times she reached right over me to get the dirty plates, when she could have walked around me, it was only a 2 seat table. I asked what the bar HH vodka was, she said Absolut then came back and said it was Skye. When I was seated I asked if we could sit at one of the high top tables outside, she said they had a large party and needed them. The whole 90 mins. we were there, no one else came into the outside area we were sitting. When she asked after we had 2 dinner orders from their dinner menu (no HH items) and 3 drinks each, if she could bring the checks, she just she put them both right in front of me, then put the to go brown bags right on top of the bills. Really strange unprofessional server. The outside area was pretty empty yet at 6:00 pm, as we still had wine in our glasses with a 4:30 PM reservation, another server came over and told us they needed our table, and we'd basically have to leave. I asked if we could at least finish our wine first. Never have I ever experienced such rudeness and behavior in a restaurant! We will never return here again. read more

1. The sushi roll was filling and delicious! The sashimi had a good kick to it! 2. The spot has fun casual vibes! It also has high ceilings! 3. There are both indoor and outdoor seatings!

Spots are double-lined that may be compact for few! Note: The bar area has TVs with sports playing! Photo: Forbidden Roll and Halibut Sea Salt read more

If happy hour is the kind of time that brings satisfaction, I'd say Ten Sushi is the place to go to. Generous helping especially the sushi rolls. Not the taco sushi though but they were very yummy with crunchy and flaky taco shell. We were seated outdoor which was a nice location for people-watching. The inside of the restaurant is trendily decorated. The beer was nice and crisp which went down well with the sushi rolls. Our server was warm and friendly. read more

Bartender/Server: Grant I workout at Lifetime and always end up at Ten afterwards for a small snack. My favorite apps are the Firecracker Wontons and the Chili Garlic Edamame.

Came here to celebrate my bestie's birthday and had an amazing time! The restaurant's interior is absolutely stunning, and since we had a reservation, we were seated in the beautiful main dining room near the sushi bar and the big indoor cheery blossom tree. The atmosphere is as swanky and cool as I remember it, and it was buzzing even on a weekday. I definitely recommend making a reservation! We started with the spicy edamame and spicy tuna crispy rice, both of which were excellent. For dinner, three rolls were the perfect amount for the three of us. I don't remember the exact names, but they were all delicate, beautifully presented, and most importantly, delicious! To top it all off, we shared an incredible miso cheesecake, and the staff even brought out a surprise happy birthday mochi ice cream treat with a candle for my friend. I love this place and highly recommend it for a date night, a special occasion, or even just happy hour with friends. Just don't forget to get your parking validated--it's $27 without it! read more

I loved the honey walnut shrimp and the shaken beef noodle thing. For the sushi I liked the one with the black rice, I forgot what it's called. The drinks were strong and flavorful, my friends liked their martinis, I'm good with their old fashion. Our waitress Sherdeen was super attentive and was very friendly. It's a cute spot with very interesting decorations lol it reminds me of Tao in Vegas with some interesting signs like "happy ending" in the corner before the bathroom lol its across that huge lifetime gym thing. You can park in the parking garage and they validate your ticket which make sure u get it validated bc it was gonna be $22 bucks if we didn't. Anyways Id go again. Prices are reasonable and the food was good! Ambiance is low lit and decorative for pics! read more

My wife and I decided to have Happy Hour at this very stylish bar and restaurant. In addition to an ice cold Asahi beer, we had sushi tacos (shrimp ceviche, spicy tuna and pickled nino) as well as three sushi rolls (spicy tuna, California roll and baja roll). All the dishes were delicious with super fresh fish and ingredients. The sushi tacos were on the small size while the sushi rolls were very filling. The Happy Hour prices were reasonable: $5 for the beer; $9 for each sushi roll; and $14 for the sushi tacos The restaurant's decor is really wow --- not subtle and very well done. The blossoming artificial cherry tree definitely stopped me in my tracks. The day was very nice so we sat outside in the pleasant outdoor area. Our waitress was terrific --- very friendly and helpful. I'm not always in this part of Irvine but if I am, I'll definitely return. It's a great place. read more

Lovely ambiance and great food make this a go to dinner location when by the airport. Just make sure you dont stay too long past the 2 hours that they validate for or the parking structure will destroy your night with their crazy up charges for parking over the validation time of 2 hours. I ended up paying $36 to park! Yikes!!! My favorite rolls are: BG roll Salmon lime roll Forbidden roll I also love their salmon avocado sashimi and their shaken beef with garlic noodles. Their pad-thai is tasty too! I have ordered delivery from them too and while not as good as eating there live, it still is good. read more

Nice sushi and cocktail bar, good to grab a drink after work. It's in a business complex so mostly well dressed white collar (at least during the week). The ambiance is nice with a nice central sakura tree. Drinks were very good. Eastern Medicine is essentially a Japanese Whiskey Penicillin and the presentation was nice. Wife very much enjoyed her Lychee Rose which wasn't overly sweet as a lychee martini can sometimes be. There were some interesting sushi options, including a handful of vegetarian and vegan options. I'm not a huge fan of sushi covered in kewpie mayo, and they had vegan mayo alternatives that I thought came out pretty good in the Eggplant Emoji veggie sushi. Two Timing Tuna was great. Would go back next time a co-worker wants to grab a drink! read more

There are many better options in OC for Sushi. They slice the fish super thin and charge way too much for mid grade sushi- Better quality sushi at Tokyo Central for a fraction of the price. $20 for 4 thinly sliced pieces of tuna Sashimi is highway robbery! Our server was nice but seriously- so many better options and higher quality fish , especially in the OC. It's not even a romantic environment , the IL Forniao across the way is a much classier dinning experience. Worlds apart and way less expensive. PF Chang's has a better atmosphere than this place. read more

We absolutely love this place--it's our favorite sushi restaurant! The sushi is hands down the best in OC, and the Lychee Rose martini is a must-have every single time.
