Yellowtail hand roll
Katrina N.

I went today cos I was craving handrolls. Although there were no customers, the server at Zeppin was able to help & serve me. I did the 4 handroll set - which consisted of salmon, yellowtail, bay scallops, and crab handrolls. I wasn't feeling the crab and asked if I could substitute it. The server was happy to do so and I asked if I could replace it with salmon. The filling of the handrolls were okay. I wish they could have been more seafood filling. And the server was a little fast in serving me the next roll as I wasn't done with what I was currently eating.

Spicy salmon bowl

Stopped by before grocery shopping & it was the perfect place for a snack. We got 6 rolls to share between each other & a salmon bowl which filled us up for the night. Service was friendly & made sure we finished each roll before making the next one.

Spicy tuna bowl

Nice spot within the Cravings food hall in Eastvale/Ontario Ranch area. Food was ok. Miso soup does not have any seaweed, but that might be good news for some people. It's does have tiny lil mushrooms which is nice. They only have yellowtail carpaccio. The sauce is ok as well. We tried the spicy tuna rice bowl. Comes with spicy tuna, seaweed salad, and pickled cucumbers. It was good, but if you're a sauce person, ask for sauce in the side as it comes bare. My husband got the salmon handroll which he said was good. The service was a little slow. They didn't even ask if we would like water and had to wait around a bit for them to address our check. All in all, a nice spot for a quickie carpaccio or roll.

Received a recommendation from some friends about this spot in the cravings food hall and I'm glad I gave it a try! A really solid place for some sushi/handrolls. My wife and I got the 6 piece set along with the Zeppin set as well as an extra unagi roll. All of the rolls were really good! My favorites were the unagi and the yellowtail. All of the fish tasted really fresh and the rice in the rolls was yummy as well. As for the sides, they give a big portion and were good, but there was a bit too much salt in the miso soup and seaweed salad. The area/stall was clean and the service was amazing! I really recommend this stall if you are craving sushi in the area!

I forgot to get pics of each of my hand rolls but I did the set of 6 and I thought it was such a great deal. I'm so happy we have a hand roll place in eastvale that actually tastes great. The service was great and our server was nice and super quick. As soon as we would finish a roll he'd already have our next roll prepared. It's a cute spot even for a date or catching up. It's located inside the food-hall so it's perfect. The seaweed stays crispy rather than getting soggy which is perfect.

6 Handroll Set with Miso Soup & Seaweed Salad ($34)

Handroll by Zeppin is located inside the TAWA Market Hall (Cravings by 99 Ranch) in Eastvale, just south of the 60 at the Cantù-Galleano exit. I ordered the 6 Handroll Set with Miso Soup and Seaweed Salad ($34), which came with Toro, Bay Scallop, Crab, Salmon, Yellowtail and Lobster. I also added 3 Eel Handrolls ($5.75 each). The miso soup was delicious and I loved the fresh mushrooms in it. The seaweed salad was fresh and they have plenty. The handrolls were delicious, especially the eel (unagi). The place is clean and they have several chairs around this "bar" style restaurant. The food hall itself has many seating throughout, if you don't want to dine in front of the staff. Overall, I loved the quality of the fish and especially loved the miso soup. The service was great and I recommend this to anyone looking for fresh handrolls.

Came here the other day around lunch time. The entire food spot was pretty empty but wanted to try this place that sits in the middle. Got the 6 Roll deal, im not a salmon fan so they double the albacore for me. When it came to the shell fish options of the set, for me it was a bit too much mayo or kewpie mayo for my taste but still rating it higher for the seaweed salad and service as well as the ratio of rice to meat. Also im used to my sunumono coming with stick crab and not just being pickled cucumbers on their own. Overall it was good, not exciting but good.

4/5/25 Woohoo! Fine grub with friends!
Jennifer W.

4/5/25 Gathered here with a few Friends with Hubby, amazing hand rolls & perfect atmosphere to chill & grub. The crew at Hand roll by Zeppin are attentive & welcoming, friendly. The setting is open, bar seating so you are able to view how your delectable hand rolls are made. It is one of the many new food stalls at Cravings (Eastvale). Parking is free & shared by other businesses at this location. The set menu enticed me: crab, lobster, bay scallop, toro, yellow tail & salmon hand rolls, which included seaweed salad & miso soup as appetizers ($34). The Toro carpaccio was phenomenal ($9.50) . It is recommended to eat each hand roll fresh, as each one is created at a good pace. Usually, seaweed salad tastes too briny fmr but the one here is amazingly fresh & tasted great (no off putting brininess). It was a delightful experience & would recommend this place for lunch or dinner & for hanging out.

I'd missed out on checking this place out with some friends a couple weeks ago, but being in the area today, I decided to go ahead and check it out for myself! Cute, quaint little sushi bar, with all bar seating so you can watch your food being made. I wasn't greeted right away, and walked around to the other side where I asked if they were open and told they were, and to sit anywhere I wanted. I was given a menu and pencil to make my selections. After I filled it out and turned it in, I was informed they were out of the toro carpaccio. I was pretty bummed about that because my friends said that was a must try. I was able to get the salmon belly carpaccio, the yellowtail carpaccio and a crab handroll. Both carpaccio dishes were excellent! I'll definitely have to come back to try the toro carpaccio. The crab handroll was tasty as well, but I'm honestly not the biggest fan of handrolls in general, so if that's not your thing, this may not be the best option for you. I washed everything down with a Mexican Sprite. The price was reasonable for a nice lunch and my transaction was completed quickly. I would definitely come here again.

Handroll located inside the Food Hall is an extension of Zeppin. I met some friends here and glad we tried this new place! The concept is new to me. You sit at a bar, facing the sushi chefs. Getting their attention can be hard at times. You get your rolls one at a time. They place it on a wooden tray. So fancy! I ordered individual handrolls and an appetizer. The toro, eel and salmon handrolls were ok. I felt the rice overpowered the fish. I also ordered the scallops hand roll. That was by far my favorite Handroll! The scallops were tender. The appetizer Toro Carpaccio comes out with a large circular ceramic bowl. The presentation was fire! The toro was buttery. The salmon roe on top was divine. Plus they added edible flowers on it. Wow! I would skip the handrolls and just get the carpaccio next time.

The two workers that did not acknowledge any customers. Not even a hello have a seat or please wait a moment.

To Garet and the Cosmo Dining Group team, and for anyone reading these reviews, I'm genuinely worried about people getting sick. At this location, we watched staff handle phones, the register, cash, and other surfaces, then go straight back to making handrolls with the same gloves, with no visible handwashing or glove changes the entire time. Our water cups were dirty, the sashimi didn't taste fresh, and the "crab" hand roll tasted like imitation/frozen crab even though the menu made it sound like real crab and properly prepared. For a place serving raw fish, that's alarming. After posting my review, I went back and read more of the recent 1-star reviews for this restaurant. Over months, different customers describe the exact same things: dirty items, cross-contamination, gloves used for payment and then food, and almost no handwashing. Your replies keep saying this is "unacceptable" and will be fixed "immediately," yet the same issues keep showing up in new reviews. What worries me even more is that when I looked at your other concept, Boiling World, I found multiple reviews over several years also mentioning dirty utensils, unsanitary food prep, and poor cleanliness. That makes it feel less like one store having a bad night and more like a deeper problem with training, standards, and priorities across the whole company. This isn't about a free meal or being picky. When you serve raw fish and shared hotpot, poor hygiene and dirty equipment can lead to real foodborne illness or parasites. I truly hope you'll look in the mirror as a company and choose to invest in real food-safety training, strict hygiene enforcement, and honest menu practices--not just polished public apologies. Because of what I saw myself and what so many other guests have reported at your locations, I do not feel safe eating here or at any of your other restaurants right now. I'm writing this so other customers can make an informed choice, and in the hope that you take this seriously before someone ends up seriously ill.

My rating is mostly based on the taste and atmosphere from this handroll bar is compared to its predecessor. The new team working here were super attentive and nice, but to be honest they look like they didn't want to be there. The most emotion I got was when they thought they skipped a roll for us (They didn't and they were super cute about it). Other than that one moment, it felt like they were just on autopilot. It's not just a one time thing, we pass by multiple times and they seemed to feel zoned out each time. Compared to the old crew who worked there, the old crew had a lot of fun working with each other. Another difference I didn't really like about the change in the menu is while they still give you delicious handrolls, it was weird to bite into the tuna and salmon and find yourself just eating them in a paste version. Usually salmon or tuna are cut into cubes before being rolled up, but this place makes them into a paste to slab onto the middle. It felt weird to not chew the filling. We also watched them make it by scooping up rice straight from the cooker, so it didn't have that slightly sweet taste like the hand rolls previously here. It was just straight rice from the cooker that wasn't seasoned, which doesn't help when there's mostly rice in the roll now. I will say though the scallop, crab and lobster were the best rolls in the combo we chose and were well worth it because they actually had chunks in there and were creamy enough to supplement the plain rice. Salmon belly carpaccio I'd also recommend since it had a nice zesty kick to it and was very refreshing. Overall, it was okay. It's not as good as its predecessor and doesn't really stand out as a handroll bar. But it does give you the satisfaction if you are really craving handrolls and is located in a food hall so you don't have to wander around much after for dessert.

Sashimi app
Natalya D.

A girlfriend and I had a great lunch date here!! - This location is a stem off of the full sushi restaurant in the same plaza. It is a counter inside of the Crave Food hall. - The service was good, although the sushi maker/server got there a little after the 11 am opening time. So we had to wait a bit. - we ordered a sashimi app, and cucumber salad. Then we each had the 5 roll combo for $30. The fish was fresh and delicious. I'd definitely go back. If you're a hand roll fan, this will hit the spot.

Loved all the sushi/ also enjoyed miso soup. Would definitely recommend the flat spicy tuna and Jalepeno bomb appts Ordered the following: Crazy Brothers 4/5 Fire something 3/5 Jalapeño Bomb 5/5 Spicy Tuna 5/5

We bought so much food here that we literally had a feast and had to take a lot home…read more First of all, I'm vegetarian, so when I find a restaurant with vegetarian options, I want to try as much of it as I can. I ended up ordering spicy edamame, vegetable egg rolls, veggie rolls, tempura veggie rolls, and vegetable yakisoba. My sister, who's a meat eater, ordered calamari, California rolls, beef fried rice, beef yakisoba, and a new Korean bbq dish that wasn't on the regular menu, but there was a picture of it on the wall by our table. In addition, we each also got a bowl of miso soup and a small salad that came free of charge with our meal, which I appreciate since sushi rolls by themselves don't really fill me up. Everything tasted good and was filling and even now after eating some of the leftovers, it all still tastes good. The place itself is nicely decorated with a bunch of police patches behind the counter while on the walls there's Japanese artwork. The only hiccups I had was when I first came in I immediately asked for 2 waters. I got a nonverbal "Mm-hmm," so I repeated it again and got the same response, but a little more annoyed. Maybe it's a cultural thing where I was expecting an actual "Yes" and in Japan it's just a noise of acknowledgement, but once I started ordering so much food the waitress was much nicer to us. The 2nd was when we had to wait for the last dish to come out when we were already packed and ready to leave, but that was more on us since we added the Korean bbq last minute. The last has nothing to do with the restaurant itself, but the plaza it's in. If you're unfamiliar with it, I'll tell you right now that the parking situation is a nightmare! Basically, the parking lot is a long narrow stretch sandwiched in-between with the various restaurants and shops on one side, and the main street on the other side, so what ends up happening is all the good spots right next to the place you want to go to get filled up fast and you have to try and make a U-turn and find parking far away. Meanwhile, a bunch of other cars are trying to do the same thing while other cars are trying to come in off the street. It's horrible! It's an accident waiting to happen! I hate this plaza and whoever designed it! Anyway, if you're willing to put up with the parking situation, the restaurant and food are good enough for you to forget about it until you're trying to leave.

The item we ordered was the Jalepeno Tuna Tempura Roll. Firstly, I always read the ingredients and saw that it came stuffed with cream cheese. They didn't " remake " the roll as you fasley stated Mike. The roll came out just as we asked , without the cream cheese because my man doesn't like it that much. After the roll came out without the cream cheese, we both took one bite and immediately didn't like it and told our waiter we didn't like the taste right after. He asked if we wanted them to remake it & clearly told him no it's okay, we will just have the rest of our rolls that were already on our table & he took the Jalepeno Tempura Roll away. As my man stated, the problem came when they didn't want to remove the charge for the Jalepeno Tempura Roll when 1. We didn't like it & 2. We didn't eat it. We first asked the waiter if it could be removed, we thought it was a mistake that they didn't remove it. He told us no which was completely absurd. So we asked to speak to the owner. She came out with one word and said " problem ? " which is extremely unprofessional & rude. My man expressed that he seems it's unfair that the charge won't be removed since we didn't like it and didn't eat it. He expressed how he's been coming to Zip for 14 years & the owner always sees us there. We were loyal customers and all she tried to do was rebuttal with us which was very disappointing. Eventually they took the charge off but my man was very upset that we had to go through that. I wish the owner would've realized a $12 charge wasn't worth losing a loyal customer. My man simply would've left double the amount in tip for the inconvenience as he always does. In my opinion, I never thought Zip was an outstanding Sushi spot but my man always loved to take us there. I'm very happy we won't be going there anymore & now I can introduce him to 5 star sushi spots! My advice: If you don't know all the facts and information that has happened in a situation please keep your comments to yourself. And Mike FYI, we would never eat an entire roll of sushi & expect not to pay for it! Not the story, not the case.

My family (me, my wife and my son) are so saddened to find out that Rakki Sushi ended up closing…read morewhen we wanted to go a few months ago. Rakki Sushi had the best ratio of fish to rice. We stumbled upon Rakki when we first moved to Chino Hills in 2023, and took a break from coming when our son was in the oven. It was definitely our go to Sushi spot when we had the energy to make it out there. We loved the various choices of nigiri, sushi rolls and even the appetizers. Shortly before they closed, the owner even gave us a complimentary yellowtail collar which was absolutely delicious, amazingly flavorful and super juicy (we never ordered this previously, since we always went with the AYCE option). The AYCE was very reasonably priced for what you got, and could be considered on the very cheap end, for quality of the food you got and options available. Rakki Sushi got high praises from our foodie friends who would visit us as well. The chef and staff were always super nice, they always came to check on how we were doing when they weren't too overwhelmed with the busyness, and we loved how super friendly they were. Our son loved the staff as well, and he always gave them smiles back in response to theirs. The ambience was more of a local/casual sushi spot, rather than somewhere fancy, which my wife and I greatly enjoyed since we like dressing comfortably in just t-shirts and joggers. The tables, seats, and utensils were always clean when we went there. The men's restroom wasn't the cleanest looking, but given the location it was understandable. Plus, we were there for the food, and not really to strictly use the restroom. We greatly miss you Rakki Sushi and hope you are able to come back one day!

I read some of the reviews that this is one of the best AYCE sushi places and I've been wanting to…read moretry it. The place didn't look like much from the outside -- a little run down in an older strip mall. But you can't judge a restaurant from the facade. I wouldn't say it's the best sushi I've ever had -- it's not. But for an AYCE place -- wow, it's pretty good. My previous favorite place was tomikawa in Irvine, but this place might be better. All the sushi we had was pretty fresh. And the other stuff we had such as jalapeno poppers and gyoza were very flavorful and tasty. The baked scallop could have been a little less runny, but the flavor was very good. The pieces of sushi are all very small -- I provide a picture with my index finger for perspective. Since the place is AYCE, this isn't a diss... Just something you should know. So if you think you want 4 large pieces of sushi, you might order 6 or even 8 here. In a way, I actually liked the smaller pieces, as they're easier to pop in your mouth and chew, and you can easily order a lot of different kinds to try without worrying that you can't finish all of them. The only thing missing is udon or ramen. I like to finish off a meal with a little warm noodles, and that's a notable miss. I'm not sure it's totally worth a deliberate trip from Irvine ... But we're definitely going to stop by any time we're in the area.
