Best bento lunch box in town. I had terriyaki beef and mixed tempura. Fantastic. The service from Pamela added to a delightful lunch. Hidden Gem! read more

Ate here on a whim..we just happened to be close by. We felt like Japanese...so we stopped in. The customer service here is just ok You can tell the staff was not 'trained' in customer service. Definitely feels like a mom and pop restaurant, which is not a bad thing... We ordered... Cucumber sashimi roll Crunch tuna takaki roll Sukiyaki Nabeyaki udon Everything was good and portion size was quite large. The prices are in line with what we ordered. Not the most authentic, but tasted good. We would probably come back read more

Great happy hour. Reasonable prices. Good food. I loved the fried oysters. Not a great ambience, but it was just a weeknight dinner read more

Fun local spot for sushi! We've been coming here for years. So glad they are here in Foothill Ranch. Crew are super friendly and hospitable. They have a TV at the bar so we can catch games while eating. Good selection of wine, sake and beers. read more

We love Ahi Ahi. The sushi is always super fresh and beautifully presented. We like the crispy lobster roll very much. But the best part is the staff. So friendly and helpful. Highly recommend. read more

Love the service and quality of food. Great fresh tuna. Try the chicken tuna crunch......

I had been wanting to try this sushi place for quite some time. There was an unusual smell when we got out of the car .I soon came to find out that it was from trash overflow from the dumpsters. I immediately got turned off so we decided to leave. They really need to try to get this under control. I mean come on it is a place to eat. Last thing you want are rats or roaches that come along with trash. We left and were highly disappointed.! read more

Portions are pretty generous but the price for the bento at $29.99 is very pricey. Servers are attentive but not very hospitable. I always feel like they are trying to rush me out. The sashimi was good. Miso was good. All the food was good, nothing great but good. The decor looks modern and clean inside. read more

This is a family favorite. We've been coming here for years and the food is consistently delicious. Some favorites spicy edamame, crispy shrimp sushi roll, rainbow roll, tempura shrimp, miso soup. It's all amazing with a large menu selection including bento boxes. The chefs and wait staff are very warm and welcoming. The tables and seating are comfortable. You will not be disappointed. read more

Updating again. Still 5 stars in my book. What a gem to have in the Foothill Ranch community. Is it worth a drive if you are not in the area? Definitely! Their quality, cleanliness and wonderful service continues to be top notch. They have family friendly seating if you are not wanting to sit at the sushi bar. I will continue to visit this great sushi spot. read more

Worst service I have ever encountered. It felt shocking. Good is mid at best. But they acted as if I owe them something. I asked for a side a soy sauce and the chef have me a bowl of soy sauce and said "here, is that enough?" read more

This is one of the best local sushi spots I've been to. Most notable about Ahi Ahi is their service. The staff are incredible and seem like they really enjoy their jobs. Everyone we interacted with was so incredibly nice. We had Leemei as our waitress, and she was so attentive and kind. I also appreciated how straightforward the menu is. They have a great selection and have the menu formatted in a very easily navigable way. The food came out very quickly and was very flavorful. The gyoza was the best we've ever had. The restaurant was pretty full on a Monday night, which goes to show what a hidden gem it is! We will definitely be back! read more

Yummy food and great service! We were seated right away and after ordering, our food came out pretty quickly. The team checked on us multiple times throughout our meal. The pricing here is a little more than you'd pay at other spots but I'd still go back. Would probably be more of a special occasion / weekend sushi spot for me, versus being a random weeknight dinner. I like how they offer a variety of menu options! Didn't get pictures of everything but we ordered 5 rolls, calamari, and Japanese curry. My husband and BIL are big Japanese curry fans and would order it again! Looked like there were a few regulars at the time we were there, and it was nice to see the team acknowledge and give them a warm welcome back! read more

I've come here a few times for lunch and always had a good experience. There are not a lot of decent sushi places around the area so this one stood out to me. The customer service is really good. I like the lunch specials. The deluxe lunch bento boxes are very filling and the quality of the fish was pretty good in my opinion. It does get crowded at times but I never had to really wait to get a table. There is plenty of parking in the plaza as well. read more

Yum yum. I went there yesterday at 4:30 pm when the opened. This is like one of the "high end" restaurants of foothill ranch lol. No seriously I wanted like cute ambient veebz, I was hungry after work. It's a little upscale for foothill ranch nice booths and cute interior decorations. Great door, great friendly service. They've been here for years. Yum yum read more

We came in for our first time and it was a good overall. We've tried several other Japanese restaurants in Lake Forest that are a bit less expensive, but the food presentation and quality here was noticeably better. We tried the bento box for lunch and liked the large number of items available to choose from, we tried the Agadashi Tofu, Salmon Shioyaki, Salmon Roll and Chicken Katsu, all of which were delicious. Although it's limited to only two items, the portions were decent so we still had some leftovers so enjoyed the rest at home. Service was fine, I noticed there are some regulars here so that's a good sign, it was not busy, but not empty either on a Thursday around noon. For lunch, there are some less expensive options for Asian food in the area, so this will not be one of our regular lunch spots, but it is definitely worth checking out and we will try to come back again, just not for a while. read more

We just can't get enough of this amazing sushi restaurant! Ahi Ahi is a quaint location in a quiet are of Foothill Ranch. They off a wide range of rolls, sushi, and other menu options such as chicken katsu. My husband ordered a lobster roll and we shared the avocado volcano, both are a must! They were both so good we went back a few days later for more! My favorite on the menu is a crunch shrimp roll and for the first time I tried black snapper. I highly recommend it. The staff is super friendly and attentive. This place is very popular with locals so be prepared to wait, but it's worth it! read more

The rolls are good. We got the red crunch dragon roll and I love it with the crispy onions. Their yellow tail sashimi was fresh wish they gave some shiso leaves with it. I gave them 4 stars instead of 5 stars because they forgot a dish and pretended it was still coming but took 15 mins so I think they forgot it when we didn't even order a lot. We ordered 4 items and they forgot 1 out of 4. read more

I love sushi. I especially love extremely good and fresh sushi. However, I have never sat at the bar at a sushi restaurant and watched the itamae create. This was my first time, at Ahi Ahi Sushi Bar and Grill. The sushi was superb. I had a spicy tuna roll, yellowtail belly sashimi, and a spider hand roll. All absolutely delicious. My favorite was the spider hand roll, which I had never tried before. I loved the softshell crab. The yellowtail belly was delectable. The talents of the itamae were amazing to watch. Their knife skills, their speed, their artistry, and their understanding of flavor and balance were outstanding. I was riveted watching them. They had great personalities, too! Made me feel very welcome. This open a new window for me regarding sushi, and I plan to sit at the bar more often in the future. read more

I tried this place for the first time and my experience left a lot to be desired. They were busy on a Friday night, so we put in our order for 2 drinks, an appetizer, and our sushi rolls within a few mins of being sat. We received our drinks and calamari about 5-10 mins after ordering. After about 20-30 mins we finished our drinks and apps, then watched as table after table around us received their entires (rolls) before us. The upsetting part is that these tables weren't even seated when we placed our order. They came in after us and received similar orders of food before us. It felt as if our server mistakenly didn't put our order in... The food was good, but the service killed the vibe and somewhat ruined our first experience here. We made it known we weren't happy, they apologized but didn't do anything else to make it right and brushed us off. Unfortunately our first impression was not good and will likely go elsewhere for sushi next time. read more

This place is the BEST sushi around! Me and my family absolutely love this spot. Not only is the sushi so fresh and delicious, but the staff is so incredible!! They always remember myself, my husband and my two kids and always treat us so amazing from the moment we walk through the door. Lee Mee is our girl! She always greets us with the warmest welcome as soon as we walk in and makes us feel so special our entire meal. We couldn't rave more about this spot and how incredible it is, not only the food but the service as well! HIGHLY, HIGHLY RECOMMEND! read more

I literally just left like 2 seconds ago. I don't write reviews.....look at my history. I have eaten sushi my entire life in lake forest and other cities up and down the west coast. I went to Japan in 2024 and I have been chasing the high of my Japanese omakase experience since. When I tell you I was transported back to that little sushi shop in shibuya with no clue what this omakase had in store for you I MEAN IT. The most authentic sushi restaurant I've had since. And that means the unchallenged #1 in service Japanese hospitality. Plate empty? BOOM! Gone. Beer empty? BOOM! full. You want 3 more pieces of nigiri because the OMAKASE THAT IS 65$ AND INCLUDES MISO SOUP, 8 PIECES OF THE BEST NIGIRI YOU'VE EVER HAD, AND ICE CREAM just wasn't enough perfection for the night. You wanted to see what else this incredible sushi chef had up his sleeve. Please bring your service to a restaurant that is working their butts off to bring you an unforgettable experience. Hard worker's like them is what we're all about. read more

We've been coming to this small restaurant for quite some time now. They are the only one that's close and serve hot pot sukiyaki. My mother-in-law always orders it and it is yummy. This time I had their salmon teriyaki bento box and my husband ordered the chirashi sushi. All freshly prepared. The service here is always impeccable, but I advise you arrive early as it can get crowded, especially on weekends! read more

As sushi bars go this is pretty much straight down the middle I of the road. I will say the service was very good. The rolls were ok - nothing to shout about but certainly acceptable. I got a piece of ikura and a piece of Uni for "dessert" - these were about half the size I'm used to. Tasty - just smallish. Beer was fairly priced. Like I said - nothing special but decent with above average service. read more

This used to be the best sushi place in the area, but its been almost 10 years and a lot has changed. The inside still looks the same but everything tastes worse. I used to get the Crunch Yellowtail Tataki and it was massive with a generous helping of sauce. Now its pretty small with just a dribble of sauce. Not to mention the quality dropped a lot as well. Ain't cheap either. read more

This is my daughter's favorite place for sushi. What do we like about this place. 1. Fresh fish 2. Nice and friendly chef (always remembers us) 3. Good service. Last I like that it is small so it doesn't get too loud. read more

We had such a wonderful experience the last time that we dined at this restaurant for my birthday. The server was very friendly and attentive and the food was beautifully presented and delicious as always. We ordered our usual bottle of Kikusui sake with our meal and to follow up he recommended we try a bottle of the Dassai (I think? The picture of the bottle is in my photos.), which was very smooth. It may now be our new favorite! At the end of the night the sweet waiter surprised me with a delicious ice cream treat topped with a lit birthday candle. We have done both dine-in and take-out, and it's so much nicer to dine-in when ordering sushi and tempura. Everything is fresh and nothing comes out of a container soggy. We will definitely be back! read more

This place has decent sushi, though the prices are on the higher side. The bento box feels expensive at $30 for just two items. The sesame chicken was okay but slightly overcooked and a bit bland, while the teriyaki chicken sauce was too salty. The sushi rolls are generously sized, and the quality and portions are solid. The servers are polite, but the atmosphere doesn't feel especially welcoming. Overall, it has the feel of a typical Chinese restaurant, despite being a Japanese restaurant. read more

Food was absolutely amazing! Fresh and quick. The staff were friendly and very helpful. Would definitely come here again.

Yummy spot for sushi! Very kind and great service !! Loved the food and vibes ! Small but perfect for a date night!

I was craving sushi on a Monday while in an area of OC (Lake Forest/Foothill Ranch) that I'm not super familiar with and so what else but to consult Yelp and I found Ahi Ahi Sushi Bar & Grill. Normally those 2 conditions (trying new sushi in a new area on a Monday) wouldn't be a recipe for deliciousness but Ahi Ahi turned out to be good! I placed a to go order the man on the phone was nice and easy to order with. I was impressed with the quality of the fish for a Monday and also the variety of the menu. When I went to pick up my order it was already ready (love that!) and everything tasted good with good quality fish and sauces at a cool temperature. I'm not going to drive out of my way to come here but definitely would order from them again the next time I'm in the area! read more

Nice restaurant overall! Party of two, on a Friday evening, around 6:30 pm. The restaurant was not too crowded, no waiting to be seated, and plenty of parking. Choice of table seating or bar seating. They also do take out. Our waitress, Viví was really cool. She was friendly, funny, kind, and helpful. Excellent recommendations. Good restaurant for a family, couples, or solo! Noise is average. Restaurant is clean, neat, and well organized! Worth checkout! read more
