I went out for sushi last Saturday to celebrate a friend's birthday, and it turned out to be such a great choice. We went based on a friend's recommendation, and I have absolutely no regrets. Almost everything we ordered was delicious, beautifully plated, and served by friendly staff. I've tried a lot of sushi before, so I'm usually picky about places, but I can honestly say I'd come back here again. What really stood out was the balance of flavors. Many sushi spots tend to rely on overly sweet or strong sauces that cover up the natural taste of the fish, but here, the sauces were perfectly portioned and elevated the dishes without overpowering them. Writing this review is already making me want to go back again soon! And the pictures on the pillars are amazing and beautiful and fun to see for others' events and memories. read more

We loved Heemo Sushi! Our waitress was very kind, (Keika?) and this is how much fish we got for $28 each. The Lunch special included a salad, miso soup, a fresh roll, and 4 pieces of sashimi for $28! And look at how big the slices of fish are!!! We were full and happy for the delicious food and generous portions. Everything tasted great. read more

I was not expecting a late night spicy tuna roll to be spectacular BUT HOLY SHIT WAS I WRONG. Lots of sushi chefs working and it wasn't even that busy. So i'm guessing that means they are on top of every single detail. Aromas were so so fresh when I opened the box. This roll was so stuffed with creamy spicy melt in your mouth tuna and the rice was still so fresh at 9:30 pm. The way the heat creeps up you, had me sweatin and sniffling, but it does not overpower the fresh tuna/rice. And they loaded me with ginger. Normally restaurants are stingy with condiments but they gave me SO much extra. I love it because it cuts the spice after the wasabi hits lol. SUCH FRESH FLAVORS FROM A SIMPLE ROLL. I wanna order more already. Also there are little polaroids up everywhere as decoration. Which honestly makes me feel so at home. Good vibes. Great food. Friendly Staff. 11/10 do not pass this spot up. read more

Heemo Sushi - Spicy Tuna Roll - Sushi Bars Near Me - Orange, California

Favorite local sushi spot with reasonable prices and Great quality fish. Decided on take out this weekend and got the morning side roll and the samurai roll, both are my favorites but the morning side is a MUST TRY! Service always pleasant. read more

Been to Heemo multiple times and it's always a funny story every visit. The food is very filling and delicious no matter what you choose; I was disheartened to learn they changed some things with the crispy rice and spicy tuna, but overall my meals have been pretty worth it. I'm especially attached to the Hawaiian Roll, Rainbow Roll, and Tiger Rolls. Their salmon, albacore, and tuna tasted relatively fresh, but the main star is their sauces and proportion sizes. Service is relatively fast! I've always lucked out with great servers even on busiest days. Would recommend going at night on a weekday since it's ironically less busy. It's always fun when there's a party who's celebrating someone's birthday, and the lights aren't as distracting as you'd think! read more

Pretty good sushi in the area. I thought they were still offering all you can eat bc they did it during pandemic...but now they are a la carte... We ordered some rolls and sushi to share and the rolls are good size and the fish on the sushi is fresh and the rice is a nice size (not too big or small). Service was good and attentive. read more

Yesterday was our first time at Heemo sushi. Two of us had sushi and the other two had bento boxes. The bento boxes were huge and had large portions. Their sushi rolls were also so huge and we ended up taking some home. The quality was very good and we're surprised we haven't found this place sooner. This will be our new sushi destination. read more

Sushi was mid. Service was indifferent. Toro was disgusting! ambiance needs improvement with some editing. Yuck. Heemo is Hell No! read more

Heemo Sushi - Horrible toro. Does not need gold flakes. Spit out into napkin! - Sushi Bars Near Me - Orange, California

Bad place- no service- had tables but no service: stood for over 20 mi it's: seems like the restaurant does not want my money.

This is the best sushi I've had in SoCal. The cuts on the fish are uniquely good by talented chefs. The staff is great. But the manager is terrible and is the only downside of this place. You can basically ignore him as he will ignore you but his pacing the restaurant looking unhappy all the time is the only negative. Again, ignore him and enjoy wonderful service from everyone else. read more

Food and ambiance were great. Took my sister and for a treat. The prices were also reasonable and food was great. My sister and mom loved their dishes..this was their 1st experience eating sushi. So its a great introduction to sushi. read more

Local spot so I keep coming back but the service lacks attention to details. Room for improvement as far as long wait, scattered staff and it's not even always busy enough to justify. I received the wrong order, I asked for the correct one after waiting a long time for sashimi and they took the platter several other dishes (we waited again). They tried to bill me for the mistake at the end of the night. Then the server asked if she could package the meal bc I was still in the back. I said NO, thanks. I never ordered it. It had been more than an hour since that plate had been taken away read more

The food is incredible, beautiful Sushi! The yellowtail carpaccio divine and glorious! Everything on the plate is edible, even the orchid! Brussel Sprouts are divine Rolls are HUGE! It is loud inside.... LOTS of TV's and birthday celebrations, sake bombs, etc. Service is attentive and easily accessed throughout every visit we have found, which is lovely read more

My favorite spot!! They greet you as you walk in. And the food is so authentic and delicious.

Quality sushi. My favorite is the date night. We are repeat customers and always satisfied with Heemo!

Always a good experience! It was pretty busy (Thursday night) so service was slow, but dishes came out quick. Food was delicious per usual. They did change their menus to actual books. Not sure if they added more items, but I did feel things somewhat different since the first time I ever visited. Definitely recommend this place for yummy and filling rolls. read more

I always try to give places the highest rating possible, but I really can't give this place more than 3 stars. I go here sometimes just because it is the closest sushi spot to my house, and the fish quality is passable but it's just kind of expensive. They discontinued their AYCE which is unfortunate. I got 28 slices of sashimi (3 orders of 8 piece and 1 order of 4 piece) and 1 sushi roll which were all good, but I did not think it'd be $100. The service was also just okay. The wait was longer than expected which was unusual since most of my takeout order was just slices of raw fish... Overall I don't want to negatively impact the business and I wouldn't even advise anyone from going here. If you're nearby and want some quick sushi, go for it. But if you're looking for the best sushi restaurant I think there's many better options. read more

Our friends decided to have a FriendMas event with catering board theme. We decided to go for the Sushi board since everything else our friends were bringing seems a tad boring. Let me tell you the sushi board was such a huge hit! We reached out to Heemo Sushi and a sweet rep name Cakie or something "sorry", she helped us out with our sushi board. She was very knowledgeable and very informative. My wife and I were so impressed with the sushi Chef and service here that we knew we had to give this place a great rating with our wonderful experience. We're having another Xmas party next week and we're definitely doing this beautiful sushi board again!!! read more

A good friend was craving sushi so I accompanied her even though I don't do the whole sushi/sashimi thing. Luckily this place has a number of delicious alternatives for us non-sushi folks to enjoy. The interior is welcoming...at least the sushi chefs will yell their welcome as you walk through the door. We found the service to be superb - friendly and helpful. The food is prepared and delivered quickly. My friend thoroughly enjoyed her rolls as well as a complimentary salmon dish the chefs sent out. I ordered a few "small dishes" - chicken teriyaki, spicy garlic edamame, and gyoza. The tender slices of teriyaki chicken were excellent as were the few sliced veggies that accompanied the large quantity of chicken. The edamame had a garlic coated exterior with some heat which was at the maximum level of spice tolerance for this spice wimp. My lips felt the heat as I squished out the beans from the pod. We both really enjoyed this dish. The deep fried gyoza - a six count - were crunchy on the outside with a tasty dipping sauce provided. The food and atmosphere were appealing to me. So if you are not a sushi eater and find yourself here, don't fret, there are plenty of choices for you too. read more

After years of searching for a new favorite sushi place, I came across Heemo Sushi! Since then, I have gone back several times to take friends and family (that's my excuse for going back more than I should ). Every single item we've tried is delicious and fresh. Service is friendly but can be slow at times when they're very busy --understandably. There is always parking available. I have yet to try their dessert menu... one day! read more

Celebrating a birthday - good food and service and a birthday surprise! (I won't give it away for anyone going there for a birthday) We live close by, which is always a plus, and to have great food and service are pluses all the way around. Their menu shows many, many choices and variety of Japanese food, all very good so far! From simple to exotic rolls, superb tempura, great lunch deals, nice variety of sashimi, and service that far exceeds most eating establishments - we've been various days and times so it's not a fluke. Enjoy! read more

I came here for my birthday and it was delicious. We got four rolls and a seaweed salad for about 60 dollars. We got the rainbow, Volcano, Monster, and Katella roll. Our favorite was the Volcano. I would come back here and I do wish they offered happy hour deals! Or if they did, I had no idea or there was no way of knowing. The ambiance was really nice, clean! I love the wide, long tables. Service was nice and sweet. read more

First time dining here since Covid. This was our go to spot during pandemic for take out. They had great deals back then for 50%off rolls and now we're back to normal inflation times. It was a lil interesting that their menu didn't show prices. Can be a lil deceiving. Just take that into consideration. Overall their rolls here are pretty solid. I enjoyed my sunset roll and dark angel roll, the popcorn scallop was just ok for me (can skip). Probably a surprise order for us was their yellowtail collar. Good amount of serving and perfectly cooked. We also ordered their ramen. Probably the worst we've had in a Japanese restaurant. Really tasted like just instant ramen noodle from a package and soup was sadly on the room temp/cold side. I had high hopes for this place since we enjoyed it back then. Hopefully it was just a bad day read more

We went to a group bday lunch and ordered everything family-style to try many dishes. Easy parking and besides peripheral booths, there's two long communal tables to nosh at. The service was decent but not very attentive. We asked three times for extra ginger before it was brought out. We were using all parts of our first napkins before they brought out more. It was not busy when we were there on a Monday around 12:30pm. They did bring out a festive, complimentary green tea mochi dessert which cleaned our palate. My favorite was the spicy edamame and catfish, plus the salmon roll. You can get a poke salad off menu as well, which had some heat to it! I'll give this place another try as one of our table mates swears by this eatery as a competitor to Kaigen (which is closed on Mondays). I'll return read more

Sushi was very fresh! And I love that the sushi chefs greet you when you walk in the door! Good atmosphere. Not all servers are friendly but our server was nice! Food was presented well! For a brief moment my daughter and I felt unwelcome but as we started ordering and speaking the language we were treated better. I suggest welcoming all walks of life! Sushi Chefs were awesome! read more

Love the fresh fish, the sushi portions are great, I ordered take out and the service was very fast!

Great service and great quality of food!! Especially the size of the roll and sushi is incredible... great place to go!!!

I've been here twice per recommendation from my sister who frequents here, once for dine in and the other I took my order to go. Service is great! Sushi chefs greet upon arrival and departure every time. The sushi is so fresh and their rolls are big! Not overloaded with rice, and the sushi is fresh. Our favorite rolls are the Philadelphia roll, crispy rice with spicy tuna instead of spicy albacore, and the Sunrise roll was very flavorful and refreshing and the presentation was beautiful. I didn't expect sauce or onions on the Sunrise roll since it wasn't pictured that way on the menu, nor do I favor neither onions nor sauce, but after giving it a try it was delicious. Past reviews say this place used to be AYCE, I think their menu has so many great options it would be awesome to bring that option back while still offering à la cart since their prices are so reasonable. Highly recommend this sushi spot if you're in the Orange/Tustin area! read more
