If I had to describe this place in two words, it would be missed potential. The food here was honestly amazing, but unfortunately, the service didn't quite live up to the quality of the food. If Yelp allowed half stars, I would give this place a 3.5/5, and I'll explain why. Starting with the food, I honestly have no complaints. The fish was incredibly fresh, and you could tell they weren't cutting corners when it came to quality. Everything we ordered from the sushi bar tasted great, and the rolls were a good size with generous portions. The fried food was also amazing, perfectly crispy and cooked well without feeling overly greasy. The ramen was another solid choice, and overall, the food was easily the highlight of our visit. Whoever is running the kitchen and sushi bar definitely knows what they're doing. Unfortunately, the service was a completely different story. This was our first time visiting, and from the moment we walked in, the experience felt a little underwhelming. We weren't greeted with much enthusiasm, nobody seemed to have a smile on their face, and there wasn't much effort to make us feel welcomed. Since this was our first visit, we weren't familiar with how everything worked, and nobody took the time to explain the ordering process. One thing I found a little strange was how the food was brought to our table. Whenever our sushi orders arrived, nobody explained which fish was which. They would bring the plates over, stand there looking at us, and wait for us to figure out where to make room. No "excuse me," no asking us to move a plate, or even a simple explanation of what they were serving. It was almost like we were supposed to read their minds. Another thing was the water situation. Our glasses weren't refilled unless we asked, and even then, we had to ask multiple times. I understand restaurants get busy, and I don't expect someone to constantly check on our table, but I feel like refilling water is one of the simplest parts of good service. What disappointed me the most was the overall lack of friendliness. There wasn't much conversation, no checking in to see how our food was, and honestly, no real sense of hospitality throughout our meal. Of course, once it was time for the bill and tip, the interaction suddenly felt a little more attentive. I'm honestly one of the easiest people to please when it comes to restaurants. I don't expect anything fancy, and a simple smile, friendly greeting, and decent service go a long way with me. I've only ever given five-star reviews on Yelp, so writing something less than five stars is a little difficult for me, especially when the food was this good. Overall, I think this restaurant has a lot of potential. The quality of the fish, the sushi, the fried food, and the ramen were all excellent, and I would gladly come back for the food alone. I feel like with a little more attention to customer service and hospitality, this place would easily be a five star experience. I'm also interested in trying their Buena Park location to see how the two compare. Great food deserves great service, and unfortunately, this visit only delivered on one of those.
This place is the place to go for quick and friendly service. Food is delicious and fresh. Good for large group because the atmosphere is loud.
I've heard many good things about this place and I understand why! We were luckily enough to come on a day that wasn't too crowded and got seared immediately. The chairs imo, were too high for the table, I felt like I was hovering over the food, idk if that makes sense but something I noticed immediately after sitting. The menu system is a bit confusing. There's a paper menu and one you place online via QR code. For the paper menu, we were limited to 20 pieces of nigiri at a time. This wasn't a huge deal since it was only 2 of us, but I can see how that can become frustrating with larger groups especially since there's only 3 rounds, unless the limit increases with group size. The online ordering system only allowed you to order 2 appetizers at a time. I love me some baked mussels and unfortunately 1 order = 1 baked mussels which means we were only able to order 2 mussels at a time and then have to wait until our 5 minute wait period is over before placing another order. This is the first sushi restaurant that I been to that had this small of a limit... They also limited you on the carpaccio order but that was expected. Aside from the menu and ordering frustration, I think their food and service is great. Their fish tasted very high quality and the fish to rice ratio was spot on! They had many different options of nigiri to try, so we definitely got to try a little of everything. There was only 1 item we didn't like and our server was kind enough to remove it from our bill. Overall it was a good place for high quality sushi. I just wish I wasn't so limited when placing orders since it is ayce and they already emphasis the leftover charge.
Sushi sushi sushi. Loved everything about this place - the service, the food, and the ambiance. Fish is fresh and price is very reasonable. We went here right when they opened on a Sunday and didn't have to wait for a table. Plenty of parking and near so many good places to walk to after eating all that sushi.
came first thing when they opened on a Saturday, it def was already pretty busy and they seemed short staffed. During our meal there was someone who i assumed was newer to the restaurant and the person training or teaching them was really loud and kind of rude pointing and touching all the tables trying to teach the new person the layout. I understand training but I don't think it was a good idea to do it in front of full tables of guests. or maybe have a map of the tables near the kitchen for them to review but training very very loudly and disturbing others guests just did not sit well. Besides that the food was great as always. I wish they did offer a less rice option but the portion isn't as much as other places. It's a very very busy location so i would recommend getting there a decent amount of time earlier than you'd want to eat.
Good quality for a reasonable price. Personal favorites are the mackerel and squid. The service was good and quick. Their sides of ginger was great for a palette cleanser.
Service was good and quick ~ never had to wait long to place new ayce rounds, arrived around 3pm on a Saturday for a party of 4 and no wait. Interior is really clean and nice decor. We did the $42 ayce standard and it was very good. Probably my favorite ayce sushi places. They have a huge menu of nigiri, carpaccio, appetizers, ramen, rolls with a handful of rice less rolls (we liked the Sakura roll). Sushi quality was great! Some items are limited to 2 pc per person like the carpaccio and those were some of our favorites. Unagi (eel) is limited in sushi form but you can get unlimited eel hand rolls.
Still my fav all you can eat sushi spot. Lunch deal is such a great deal. If you like salmon. Don't sleep on this spot. I hate when all the fish taste the same. But here the salmon is always nice and buttery. Great texture Salmon bomb I get regular salmon and peppered that has a slight sear Udon soup is really good here. Get the Nagasaki spicy udon. Flavor is so good. Little char flavor that I love. This is a must get Fried tempura shrimp is done well Always good food. Always great service. Plenty of parking
Food: the food here is delicious every time I come! Fresh fish and delicious taste. Service: friendly and efficient servers every time. Never an issue all the times I've come. Ambiance: very cute vibes! Love the decor and feel of this restaurant.
X-Fish has been on my list for quite awhile and finally it got to try it. We did the lunch signature $41.99 pp My friends have been raving at how affordable and delish the fish here is esp the toro but I had one order of it and I did not want another order off the menu at all. Only good tasting item was the Alaskan roll. Calamari Karaage is also a good appetizer. Items we tried during our visit: *Baked Mussel - came out on the cold side. Baked mussels is usually warm. *Alaskan Roll *Orion Draft *Grilled Chicken Teriyaki (Half Size) tastes like they used old oil or it's been in the deep freezer for awhile. *Albacore Carpaccio (2 pcs) *Yellowtail Carpaccio (2 pcs) *Baked Scallop Roll *Rainbow Roll - 1 - tasted normal. Walking into the establishment to put my name down it had a fishy smell. But I tried my best to just keep a positive outlook since I've had friends who rave about the place. But after the meal, I felt like I should've listened to my gut when I smelled how fishy it smelled. Restroom needed attention! Female toliet has no toilet seats and just needed to be cleaned up. I personally would not recommend this spot nor would I come back. I just felt very disappointed and like I wasted my money since it was not the best tasting. Tips: *Credit card accepted *Indoor seating only *Serves alcohol *Free street/parking structure nearby *They have another location in Buena Park.
Sushi is delicious! Our favorite is smoked salmon, the giant scallops, yuzu yellowtail and Cajun tuna. We enjoyed everything but the tri peppered sushi, they were mildly flavored and underwhelming. The first two rounds of our order arrived quickly but the third time we had to get the servers attention to pick up the order sheet (I noticed another table had to do the same) staff passed by our table multiple times and didn't pick it up. This time the sushi took a long time to arrive, it pushed us to the 90 minute time limit. I appreciated one staff member coming by and giving grilled chicken skewer sample (very good!) The restaurant is round shaped and the acoustics inside is awful. It's very noisy and it's difficult to hear the staff. The chairs scrape on the floor. Also the table tops have water damage from the ice water glass condensations, coasters would help. The restrooms were ghetto. One of the women's sink was out of order, one of the stalls was out of toilet paper but the big roll was precariously hanging from the stall door hook and it fell and rolled on the floor. For the price I expected a better experience.
Tried this for dinner on a Thursday around 6 pm with a party of 2. We were seated right away, but heads up, they won't seat you until everyone in your party arrives. It's located in a big shopping center with Ralph's and Home Goods. I'd recommend parking in the open lots since it's much easier to find a spot than using the structure next to X-Fish. We went with the Omakase and spent about $60 each including tip. Food was good with a nice variety, including tonkotsu, sushi (of course), and a chicken BBQ skewer. The seafood quality was solid, although u had just gotten back from Japan, so it's hard not to compare. We wanted to try some of their wines, but they only sold it by the bottle, which was more than we wanted. Taking off 1 star because it was very loud inside. I think it's the way the space is built - everyone's voices seem to echo. Overall, good food and decent value, just not the best place if you're looking to have conversation over dinner.
It's almost $45 a person and it's supposedly renowned but call me picky it's just not worth the hype or cost. Wait times can be extensive due to the popularity. You're limited to 3 rounds (20 pieces each) of nigiri. You're also limited to 2 rolls and 2 appetizers or something absurd for the online menu and have to wait in between to order more. Quality of fish is ok compared to other places I've had, but for the cost it's nothing spectacular. Overall, it's better AYCE than other places I've been, but it's on the higher cost end for AYCE. The overall ambiance is nice and fancier. It's really clean inside and feels premium.

X-Fish Izakaya is one of the better AYCE sushi spots I've been to in SoCal. Their service, food, and ambiance all hit the mark. I dined here recently with my husband and his cousin. We wanted to take his cousin out for his birthday. He'd never been here so it was a great introduction to this establishment. This is located in Downtown Brea. There is a parking garage near it. We arrived around 6:30pm on a Friday and the garage was getting full. We checked in on their kiosk and waited for 30 mins, not bad. The restaurant is spacious. They offer table and bar seating. This is great for casual dining. I love the neutral tone paired with the warm lighting throughout. My husband and I have been here before two years ago. The food is just as we remembered! The sushi was fresh, S I L K Y, and packed with flavor. It's the time and effort put into their dishes that I appreciated. We ordered some of the same pieces in the second round and they were consistent. Even when the restaurant was filling up, the quality and customer service stayed the same. We also ordered two beers to share among us: Sapporo and Kirin. The Sapporo was especially smooth and crisp. It made the ingredients of the sushi pop more for me. The Kirin didn't compare, but did the job. The servers would check on us periodically. If you can't find yours at the moment, there is always someone available that you can flag over. We requested to have more ginger and that did not take long to fulfill. By the end of the third round, I asked our cousin if he would come back. He undoubtedly said yes! We were happy to hear he had a great time. Thank you, X-Fish Izakaya, for being a dependable AYCE spot even after two years since our last visit. I can't wait to return! read more

The service was all over the place from the moment we arrived. Everyone seemed stressed and disorganized, and unfortunately that translated into a pretty frustrating experience for us. One of our food tickets was completely missed, and we ended up waiting about 40 minutes for our food while trying to figure out what was going on. This order was entered electronically via the QR code, but it didn't print? Mistakes happen, but there wasn't much communication or urgency in getting the issue resolved. What really pushed this experience into 1-star territory, though, was something we witnessed afterward. We saw one of the chefs leave the bathroom and walk straight back into the kitchen without washing his hands. Seeing that from someone handling raw seafood was extremely concerning and completely ruined any confidence we had in the cleanliness of the kitchen. Between the chaotic service, the missed order, the long wait, and especially the hygiene issue, this was a very disappointing experience. We won't be returning. read more

X-Fish remains my favorite sushi place ever (and trust me, I've been to many)!!' No matter how busy they are, their staff is always super efficient and friendly. The food is always top tier -- fish is always fresh, salmon soft and buttery, and the buttered peppered shrimp is to die for. They have such good lunch prices too, I can't imagine going anywhere else!! I want to give a personal shoutout to Hyung-hun for being so compassionate, kind, and attentive. He's such a beacon of light and this establishment is so lucky to have him. He is the kind of person that makes you hopeful for the world because he has so much humility and is so understanding. I also had great experiences with the hostess and Dean, the waiter!! They were so friendly and helpful!! I wish I got the hostess's name, but she had long hair and it was covering her name tag. I am ALWAYS craving X-Fish. Even if I recently satisfy my craving, it's not long before I start craving it again. I genuinely get so excited to come here every time and can't wait until the next time. read more

The food was just honestly not good. Fish was VERY fishy. Servings of the AYCE were a joke... tiny pieces of fish, with no flavor or, a weird flavor. Omakase had the weirdest combinations, and again, fish didn't taste fresh. Was so disappointed because I had heard great things. Service was fine, but also not helpful when we had questions, and we had to ask for simple things like cups for our sodas. Wouldn't come back and wouldn't recommend. Made our stomachs feel bad after too.... read more

Came here because they're somewhat "viral" for the great fish-to-rice ratio and high quality fish. I was disappointed by certain nigiri's, namely the tuna, squid, and ikura. The quality is fine but not extraordinary, with the squid and octopus nigiri's being pretty chewy. Nothing was particularly fishy, except for the tuna. As for the ikura, it was kind of funny, as we had placed an order only to receive tobiko instead. When looking back at the ordering sheet, we found that the staff had crossed out ikura and instead wrote "tobiko" after handing us the order. I mean, at least they were honest. But we wouldn't have ordered it if we had known it was tobiko from the start. They have a variety of ramens, udons, and hot dishes as well. Tried one of their ramens and it was just so so. Everything also took quite a while to come out although it wasn't particularly busy at the time we were there. Makes you wonder how long you'd have to wait if there was a full house, especially since AYCE places have a time limit for the table. read more

Really enjoyed our experience at X Fish! We went for the dinner all-you-can-eat Signature Menu, which is $41 per person and has a great variety of options. The fish was fresh, everything came out quickly, and the service was great. Our server, Young Jun, was especially helpful and made sure to let us know about all of the specials. He was friendly, attentive, and really made the experience even better. Definitely a great spot for sushi with lots of options and good quality! read more

Really excited to try this location for the first time. We arrived around 5 p.m. on a Saturday and only had to wait about 15 minutes, which wasn't bad at all. Since we had a stroller, we did have to leave it at the entrance and were only able to bring the car seat to the table. We went with the omakase option because we wanted to try the chef's special sushi selections for each person. There were also so many other options to choose from like ramen. Everything was fresh and delicious. They cleared our plates quickly, which I really appreciated. read more

X-Fish has become my go to spot for AYCE sushi after coming here almost every other month for the last year. The sushi always feels high quality, the fish is fresh and tastes great. And the extras you can get outside of the nigiri are just as good. I've been to both locations and they're both great so no wrong options. Come here during their lunch hours and you'll get amazing sushi at a really good price. Some of my favorites are yuzu yellow tail and the buttered shrimp, but just go down the line of their AYCE menu, it's all good. read more

I had a really good time checking out Xfish Izakaya in downtown Brea. The highlight here is definitely their AYCE (All-You-Can-Eat) Omakase, which runs $57 per person. For an AYCE menu, the quality of the fish is actually really solid and fresh, and the presentation is beautiful. It's a great way to try a variety of different rolls and nigiri without worrying about the bill adding up. The atmosphere is casual and inviting, and the service was friendly and attentive. If you have a big appetite and are craving sushi, this is a great deal and a reliable spot to visit! read more

Hi Eveline,…
I came with my fiancé on a weekend 4 PM and there was no wait so we got immediately seated. Place is kind of huge and there are a lot of servers around. 3-4 chefs at night when it gets busy (trust me, they do). And food has been very consistent every time i come here. Appetizer from kitchen or sushi are all very consistent. My favorite is spicy garlic edamame and their tri pepper salmon. New thing I like is buttered shrimp! Lunch special has smaller menu (no yuzu yellowtail, no bluefin tuna, no jumbo scallop, no sashimi) but still worth the price since sashimi, bluefin tuna and jumbo scallop is limited quantity. read more

If we choose the Omakase option, can we skip some of the sushi and just order the ones we want on the omakase set? thanks.
Typically, that's not how omakase works, but if you don't like something, you're not supposed to be able to choose. Omakase is chefs choice. If it's an already known set, then it's just a set. Now, you can tell them that you do not want…
Yelp and website state they take reservations, but when I called, they said they do not take reservations. anyone know the real answer?
They are always quite busy. You show up and you sign in on their guest registry and they will notify you when your table is ready. They do not take reservations.
Does everyone in your party have to do the omakase? Or can some of them do the signature?
Everyone in your party must opt to the same one-- either the omakase or the signature.
Does everyone at the table must order AYCE if only one person wants AYCE?
I would assume so.
I understand it's AYCE, but do the rolls come in half rolls or only full rolls?
Rolls only come in full rolls. No half rolls.
How much do they charge for lunch on weekend? weekday?
Lunch X fish option is only available from open - 2pm, Monday through Friday.
Is the omakase AYCE?
No it's not. You get an Omakase plate but just 1 plate chef's choice
Can you eat here on your own or does it require groups of 2+?
You can be a party of 1
Reservations not available on weekends?
Yes, or you can use the yelp app to join the waiting list
How long is the typical wait time at 7pm on Fridays with no reservation? I was only able to get a 10pm reservation
their reservation isn't accurate, you can put yourself online first, and then, on Saturday I had to wait for an hour, luckily the main street in Brea seems to be colorful and worthy taking a stroke down the Birch street
