    My husband and I were actually planning to go out for omakase, but we heard about a popular AYCE sushi spot in Orange County and decided to give it a try instead. Honestly, we were pleasantly surprised. The open kitchen was fun to watch, the sushi tasted fresh, and the uni was one of our favorites. The quality was much better than we expected for an all-you-can-eat restaurant. We left completely full and would definitely come back.

    Best selection of sashimi/carpaccio for an ayce place for sure
    Brittney G.

    One of the better ayce sushi spots in Orange County. Fish selection is good, they have a great variety of sashimi/carpaccio and izakaya. One downside was a nat/fly problem the last time I was there... and a fly zapper sitting on the sushi counter. Doesn't look great for customers worried about food safety/quality. Definitely will come back, hopefully will not have any fly/nat problems next time

    Solid option for ramen!! They are open super late and they have such an assortment from sushi to ramen to udon. Service was awesome. My husband got take out and they neatly packaged the items. It was pretty tasty and came with extra vegetables.

    I live close by but have never tried this spot. Pretty standard price for ayce, and I like how they are open late. My friend and I met up for 8pm dinner and were able to sit at the bar with no wait. The nigiri was alright, so I personally took advantage of ordering carpaccio instead after the first round. Tasted more fresh and had good flavor. The sashimi no rice roll was good to share. They include some ikura, scallops, and uni with the ayce which is usually an added cost at other places. Really appreciated it was included, and maxed it out. The crispy tuna rice are huge pieces, but are one of the better ones I've had at a restaurant. Udon was also basic, with a good amount of noodles. Service was good refilling my hot water and bringing out the dishes. For a quick ayce sushi, I think it was a great meal.

    Another mediocre AYCE sushi spot. The food was pretty good but nothing really stood out. They don't have any unique rolls and everything was very basic. Their lunch was 29.99 and dinner 39.99. Most of the best food was locked behind the dinner menu. The spot was pretty small, but they have pretty cool decorations. The service was a little slow and the servers don't speak great English. I personally wouldn't visit again since there are better spots with better quality fish or cheaper pricing.

    This has become my go to sushi spot. Prices are fair for delicious AYCE sushi. They have a really good deal if u come for lunch. If you're wondering yes they play the World Cup here and if u wear a jersey beer is $1. This entire place is a great environment, friendly staff, not much of a wait time to be seated, World Cup, delicious AYCE sushi, and beer.

    We absolutely took full advantage of the AYCE at Ise Sushi -- and zero regrets. Came with a group, so naturally we ordered like it was our job. The salmon and albacore carpaccio were fresh, buttery, and perfectly dressed. The sashimi? Clean cuts, fresh flavor, no fishy aftertaste exactly what you want when you're going all in. And the hand rolls were solid every round, not just the first one. Service kept up with our pace and the food kept coming out consistently good. Nothing felt rushed, nothing felt sloppy just quality across the board. If you're going to do AYCE, do it properly. Bring friends. Come hungry. And pace yourself... or don't.

    Good food and the service was quick. Very understandable menu and as swell as the pictures. Also all you can eat is affordable, however I have been to multiple AYCE sushi places and they of course let us know about the leftover price if we waste food. However we would sometimes leave 1 piece of a sushi or two and we would never get charged for it. Not a big deal but for this restaurant are very very serious. Which is fine, but seriously? We left maybe 2 pieces of sushi. That kind of ruined the whole experience in terms of how serious and stingy they were. We didn't waste on purpose AND we didn't leave a WHOLE ROLL. Oh well. Come here but bear in mind if that experience.

    Ultimate salmon and sushi roll.

    First time ordering ISE Sushi. Fresh and well made sushi! 10 out of 10. Must try!

    I can't believe this place isn't talked about more. Tucked away and easy to miss, this hidden sushi spot absolutely delivers--especially if you're an all-you-can-eat sushi lover like me. What really sets this place apart is how many options they have that don't even include rice. Yes, you read that right. So many sashimi-style rolls and specialty pieces that let the fish shine without filling you up too fast. And when rice is included? The portion is perfectly minimal--just enough to hold everything together without overpowering the flavor. Let's be honest: when you're doing AYCE, rice management matters . The thoughtful balance here makes it easy to enjoy more variety without feeling stuffed after a few rolls. Fish was fresh, cuts were generous, and everything came out quickly. You can tell they understand how to do AYCE without sacrificing quality.

    Tucked in the corner of a Ktown strip of stores is this adorable little sushi spot. The wait was at least about 30-45 minutes but once you've gotten inside you're seated at a table either on the floor or with a booth with a pit for your feet to rest in. The servers were very attentive in checking when we were ready and let us know so politely that there is a 2 hour maximum. The quality of all of the fish was unmatched by any other sushi spot we've been to in Ktown and the Kimchi pasta was to die for. Parking is very limited as the shopping center is super small but it is more than worth the hassle.

    Jessica K.

    So glad we found Ise Sushi Japanese Restaurant tucked away in this little plaza. It feels like one of those neighborhood gems; seems like a lot of locals come here, which is always a good sign. The service is always amazing. Everyone is so kind and attentive, and you can really feel the hospitality from the whole staff. The fish is impressively fresh, especially for an AYCE spot, and everything we order is always delicious. I especially loved their carpaccio and the yuzu salmon, which are both super flavorful and fresh. Definitely a spot we'll be coming back to again.

    We used to eat here frequently years ago, but had not been in a while. We heard that it had ayce sushi, we had been going to the one that opened in Brea with the hour to hour and half wait. I think this place is miles better without the wait. The selection is great. Sushi quality is good quality and the ratio fish to rice is pretty fair. I especially love the carpaccio, and they don't limit how much you can have. My family and I tried so many things. There was no crowd so the service was friendly and attentive. As far as I know there was no time limit, so it was much more relaxing to take our time and enjoy. What a great experience! Definitely my new ayce sushi spot!

    The food is always excellent!  Service is kind and welcoming.  We drive 1hr just to eat here.  Highly recommend!

And even though I am an adult, I was uncomfortable with this being on while we were there. She alluded to the fact that if children were to come in she would turn it off, but she had no way of monitoring what scenes were playing, she couldn't see the TV and was busy behind the counter. This was wild and I am still shocked that she decided to do this. What terrible decision making skills. Please talk to your employees about the content that is playing for guests. This could cause really big problems for this place if the wrong people walked in on this type of content in a family friendly environment.

What we ordered: 1) Black deluxe chicken paitan with pork - the broth was so tasty, it was absolutely delicious. The pork slices were generous, however, it was DRY. 2) Pork chashu - for my kid. They loved the broth as well and also felt that the pork slices were dry. I wanted to give 4 out of 5 stars, but I am going to hand them a 3. I loved the tasty broth, but the pork was too dry. How could you mess that up as a ramen restaurant? The portions looked a little smaller than what I am used to paying for much less money. That photo of my black deluxe chicken paitan with pork is very deceiving. It looks like a lot, but it definitely wasn't. I usually can't finish my bowl of ramen in one sitting and take the other half home. I barely had any broth in there, and being that the broth was very good, I was disappointed to run out of it before I was even done with the noodles and meat. Would I return? Sure. I liked the food. It's not a place I would go out of my way to eat at, but if I was around the neighborhood and wanted ramen, I would dine there again.
