My boyfriend and I made reservations to come here for a date night. We had a lovely table on the patio with the prettiest view. We were waiting for a while to be served, when Arman noticed we hadn't been assigned a server and just truly stepped up. He went above and beyond to ensure we had the best wine, and recommended the best salmon avocado & bitchin' rolls we've ever had! All in all, we had an amazing experience and Arman played a huge role in that! Would absolutely recommend for the food, ambiance, and impeccable service. read more

had a very nice dinner here on Mother's Day. The setting is lovely, right on the water, set inside the hotel's regular restaurant, so if someone does not want sushi, there is the full menu availabe. We had a mix of nigiri and rolls. The nigiri options were less than what you might expect from a full sushi restaurant but the mainstays were all available and tasty. The overall bill was a little high, but considering the venue, not too far beyond what I expected. Overall, tasty and worth a repeat. read more

Had toro sashimi, poke nachos, and sunset and spent a couple hours hanging out here and both my wife and I had abdominal pain and diarrhea. I could tell the sashimi wasn't fresh because it wasn't the right temperature. When the manager came, first thing he said was he was centrism it wasn't the foods and started talking about food born infection science, not knowing I am a medical doctor. When I pointed out, he had no acknowledgement of the symptoms both of us were having. It was had service, and lack of empathy. read more

What a wonderful little sushi spot! My family and I visited FIN Sushi and Sake today and it was such an unbelievably delicious and unforgettable experience! I just want to say, for starters, how beautiful both the hotel and the view from the hotel is. We were seated inside next to the sushi bar area, and we had such a beautiful view of the ocean and the beachside. It's so beautiful. We went around 6:00, just as the sun was beginning to set, and it was honestly breathtaking. Chef Sam Park is the absolute BEST! He's hilarious and good at what he does. The food was so phenomenal, I cannot believe it! We got a lot of items, such as the sashimi platter, the sunset roll, and the geisha roll. The sunset roll has got to be my favorite of the rolls, it was so yummy! Slightly spicy and citrusy from the lemon garnish. The fish tasted so fresh and didn't have the fish smell that I typically am wary about when ordering sushi. Their Toro is SO GOOD! Oh my goodness, really melts in your mouth. Their cocktails are also delicious! What a real treat. Our server was Spencer, and he was just an absolute doll. He was super attentive and quick to give us drink refills! The food also came out in a timely manner, giving us time between our dishes to be able to enjoy without overcrowding our table. All in all, such an amazing time! I'm so glad that my family and I stopped in! I cannot wait to come back and try Chef Park's other creations. Definitely stop by if you want a good view and an even better bite! read more

We made reservations at FIN after walking by the Hotel Laguna and seeing the seaside restaurant near the back. We were not disappointed. The views are incredible - particularly in the late afternoon leading up to sunset. The bar was lively and the patio was filled with happy diners. We loved the high-quality sushi rolls as the quality of the fish was spectacular. In addition to the sushi, we ordered the brussel spouts and burrata appetizer which was worth the trip alone. We also ordered a side of the hot honey cauliflower which was equally amazing. The service was incredible. Our waiter was friendly, knowledgeable, and genuine. Although we didn't order cocktails, the drinks coming from the bar looked amazing. We will definitely return to FIN. read more

Delicious sushi, upscale decor, and an amazing view of the beach. It's everything I wanted and more. This establishment did not disappoint. Every detail was excellent. We enjoyed their salmon sushi, yellowtail sushi, yellowtail jalapeño, fatty tuna sushi, and poke cut roll. All of the fish was so fresh and melted in our mouths. The flavor combinations of everything was divine. The presentation of the soy sauce, wasabi, and ginger was beautiful and smelled so fragrant. We loved it and will be back! read more

The quality and taste were amazing! the views were awesome! I would get there early if trying to see sunset to possibly get a better table. Busy, so service was a little slow-but they were very kind and helpful. Was a little pricey for what you get, but it's a beach front hotel/restaurant- so it's expected. You can walk down to the beach from the restaurant. Not sure about their parking, we parked on the street and walked over. read more

Went here on Monday to celebrate my brother in laws birthday who was visiting from back East. It was our first time at Fin but had been to Hotel Laguna before. The views and hotel are gorgeous the service was a joke. There was only one other table of people and the server gave our sushi rolls to the wrong table, the sushi chef was yelling at him. We had to wait almost another hour before we got our meal. I was appalled by how much the staff dropped the ball on our entire experience with only 1 other small group in the entire restaurant. The bill was extremely high and when I asked if the manager would remove two extra glasses of wine from the bill he said no. I would not return to this restaurant ever again. Have a drink at the bar and take a picture but that's about all you'll get from this place. read more

I've been here a few times for a drink but today was the first time I sat and enjoyed their restaurant outside. The seating was amazing. We had a beautiful ocean view and right on the water. I like that they offer both menus from Larsen and FIN when dining outside. There is a little bit of everything you can choose from. I was able to try their sushi today and really enjoyed it. The quality of the sushi was very fresh and buttery. I would definitely get it again. We tried one of the cocktails called strawberry fields and it was very flavorful!! The overall experience was great! Our server was very friendly as well. Beautiful location in Laguna beach. This is definitely a go to spot for me! read more

Highly recommend if you are seeking quality sushi and serene ambiance. read more

OUTSTANDING sushi. Ordered this on a whim, but ended up being one of the most pleasant surprises of 2023. Incredibly fresh fish and expertly crafted rolls. The only explanation is that Hotel Laguna has kidnapped Nobu himself and enlisted him to work in their sushi kitchen. Highly recommend! read more

Came here with some friends for a double date, such a beautiful beach front spot with BOMB sushi and great drinks. Got to meet one of the sushi chefs Samuel who took great care of us and let us try a couple of his brand new sushi offerings. The one in the video is an albacore sashimi topped with roasted garlic. OMG it was so good. Staff were amazing and friendly despite being quite busy. That being said, get here early or make a reservation if you want to get a good spot! read more

Sushi was fresh and beautifully presented. The service was amazing and the view to die for! Definitely going back.

The low number of reviews should have been a warning. But it's a beautiful location and the menu looked very nice, and the view couldn't be better. But we had a 12:30 reservation on a Sunday, when they were supposed to open at 12. We were sat promptly, and 15 minutes later I went back to the hostess stand to ask if the restaurant was open because no one had stopped by. She assured us it was open and 5 minutes later a waiter from the restaurant next door came and tried to help. Took our drink order and some appetizers. Then returned to let us know the restaurant would not be opening at this time as no one had heard from the chef or the server. Another failed attempt at a hotel restaurant perhaps? Stay away. This place doesn't actually exist. It's just a cruel joke. read more

This is the best restaurant you will ever go to. We have been here a couple times and it is by far the best sushi/fish you will ever have. Chef Sam is absolutely amazing and is a genius when it comes to fish. He is so kind, personable, and has curated the best menu. The fish is extremely fresh and melts in your mouth. Along with Sam being amazing, we always have the best service when we are here. We have had Spencer each time we come in and he does an amazing job. He is always very helpful when it comes to the menu and is very sweet as well. We love this place and every person we take here says it is their new favorite restaurant when we leave. I could go on and on about how amazing Fin is! read more

This is the best sushi I have ever eaten and beautifully presented. Can't wait to go back.

I have dined here before but now If I could give this place 0 stars I would... My sister is a local in laguna as I've ventured with her through many different restaurants here, but this place felt so unwelcoming. I had a genuine question for the host and her response was so uptight. The views were nice however the negative energy we were given by the host and servers was very much noticeable and judgmental. Also girl.... The sushi come on it's okay but it's not great. You can't be mean and taste bad, pick a struggle lol. take your money to sea butter laguna sushi If you want authentic taste with genuine service. 0 stars for this finless restaurant. read more

Love this place!! Great atmosphere and staff, and the sushi (chef's kiss ) This is one of my favorite spots to get sushi. Great quality fish, great service and a beautiful view. I highly recommend coming here if you're in the area, and even if you're not it's definitely worth the drive. I usually order the omakase and have yet to be disappointed. Was here last for my birthday as my wife knows it's one of my favorite spots to go to. read more

This place has a great view. It is very fun atmosphere. We asked if there was anything vegan and there is one sushi option so we agreed to try. We had vegetable sushi ($10) cut up that was tasty and edamame (a lot of salt and soy sauce grilled) for $9. We ordered two sushi cut up rolls, sparkling bottle of water ($10) and paid $50 with tip. The view was great and fun vibe. Would be nice to have another vegan option. If we are not hungry we will go back. Had to stop and get vegan tacos after this meal at the local taco shop. read more
