    My friend and I tried J Sushi for lunch. We ordered 3 of their rolls and not only were they beautifully presented, they tasted awesome as well. Service was fast and efficient. Tip - get here when they open for lunch because it gets busy. We'll be back to try other dishes for sure!

    Offers lots of special sushi rolls, good quality bento box and yummy ramen. Service is attentive and friendly. They have $7 daily and monthly roll which is a good deal. We had mild monkey roll, salmon lover roll, sweet fire roll, and hurricane roll. They are all flavorful. We also had the sushi bento ( 3 pics sushi & 8 pics spicy tuna, tempura and salad ) and tonkotsu ramen. The soup base is pretty yum!

    Rainbow roll & Salomon Cali roll
    Denise B.

    We found this Great Sushi place. It has tables, and take- out orders. The rainbow roll & Salmon rolls were fresh & Delicious! So glad we found J's Pleasant service, and clean place. Good location as well. We will be back for more fresh fish

    Eskimo roll + Garlic Edmame
    Bree M.

    So good! I came by while I was waiting for an oil change. Their menu is huge, almost overwhelming. Service was great! Prices vary from your basic 5.99 Cali up to $15 for a fancy baked roll. Definitely would return.

    udon noodle soup and gold dragon roll!
    Shar ..

    i came for my first ever lunch special and was SO impressed. every day, a new roll is $6.99 all the way up to february of next year and it's worth it if you're like me and unable to appreciate a change in palette worrying about whether you're wasting your money or not. service is lovely as always. had two new servers who are quick to greet you and seat you. lovely atmosphere as per usual. favorite spot to get some writing done. not a huge fan of the noodle soup however. the egg smell is a little too overpowering for me

    Beef Yakisoba
    Michael T.

    Went here on a Thursday evening around 5:30. It wasn't busy and we were seated right away. Our servers were friendly. However for it not being busy, the food did take a little while to come out. I ordered the Beef Yakisoba which I really enjoyed! The noodles were seasoned just right in my opinion. The beef was also nice and tender too! The dish was overall very flavorful. Also for the price, the portion wasn't too bad either.

    Hot Cheetos Roll
    Jaime R.

    First time here and the Hot Cheeto Roll was very good! We also got ramen. Overall great food, vibe and hospitality! I would recommend here!

    Definitely worth a try if you're in the area. Rolls were delicious. Would name them for you, but the waitress ended up messing up our receipts..gave us the wrong one, gave us the right one but then charged the wrong one, then eventually got it right. It appeared to be a genuine accident, but just pay attention to your bill. Overall, service was quick. It is a small place, so expect to have a small wait if you go for a dinner during the weekend.

    The food here is delicious, from Sushi to Ramen to their specialty bowls. Their service is quick, friendly, and always with a smile. This place is a machine consistently turning out good food.

    Patiently waiting for my to-go order!

    My first visit to Chubby Sushi felt like coming home…read more As a party of one, I was welcomed in and given a seat right at the chef's table, where I got to watch all the artistry and hard work that goes into every dish. It turned what could have been a simple dinner into a memorable experience from the moment I sat down. I ordered the sashimi plate, and it was absolutely outstanding--fresh, beautifully prepared, and surprisingly well-priced for the quality. What impressed me most was the honesty of the staff. I was considering ordering a larger portion, but they actually talked me out of it because they knew I wouldn't finish it. They were right. That small gesture showed me they cared more about giving me a great experience than squeezing a few extra dollars out of my wallet. That kind of customer service is rare these days. What makes this experience even more memorable is that I had just come from X Fish Izakaya, where I spent nearly an hour waiting to be seated while watching people who arrived after me get seated first. I left feeling frustrated and completely overlooked. Walking into Chubby Sushi was the exact opposite experience. Here, I felt welcomed, appreciated, and genuinely taken care of from the moment I walked through the door. As if the food and service weren't enough, on my way out I met a well-known food reviewer and even got the chance to hold a giant tuna head that Chubby Sushi had on display for a photo. It was one of those unexpected moments that made an already great night unforgettable. Sometimes a bad experience leads you exactly where you're supposed to be. I'm genuinely glad X Fish Izakaya dropped the ball because it led me to discover Chubby Sushi. This wasn't just a great meal--it was one of the best dining experiences I've had in a long time and one I'll remember for years to come. I'll definitely be back. Chubby Sushi didn't just earn my business--they earned a customer for life.

We waited almost 40 minutes for our food, which was frustrating enough. I ordered several pieces of salmon and yellowtail nigiri, and every single one had wasabi hidden underneath the fish. There was no indication on the menu, and our server never mentioned it. My mouth was on fire, but what upset me most was that my son also took a bite and had the same experience. Plenty of kids eat sushi, and customers should be told if wasabi is already included under the fish. When I brought it up, our server apologized and initially said it wasn't supposed to come that way. Then the owner said it was intentional. Another owner tried to tell me it was "traditional" and "common," even though it wasn't disclosed anywhere. Instead of acknowledging that customers should be informed, I felt like they were trying to convince me the problem was mine. They also brought us our roll 45 mins later that was mostly avocado with very little fish and missing cucumber which only added to the disappointment. To their credit, they did remove our bill, and I appreciate that. However, by that point the experience had already been soured by the lack of communication and the way our concerns were handled. A simple warning that the nigiri is served with wasabi under the fish would have prevented the entire situation.

If I were to come back I would definitely order the Beef Udon again as well as some of the meat skewers including the meatball and the steak with ponzu. // Restaurant: Our servers were attentive and quick with refills. They did miss one of the menu items that we ordered, but they quickly got the order in and the food came out nice and hot. Inside they have traditional Japanese seating (shorter tables, you sit on the ground) as well as tables that can accommodate large and small groups alike. // Notes: Prices are about what you would pay at other izakaya's. From the outside it definitely does not look like much, and the area is kind of sketch but it is def worth a visit!

    ***NEW OWNERS *** **Menu pics on Yelp are from old…read moreownership** Definitely on the death-watch list. It can't survive I have not been here since the week that Taps went under. We decided to give it a shot because the menus and pics I was seeing on Yelp looked good. I feel deceived y'all!!! This spot was hyped up as another "Tempo" and I was hoping for a less loud, club-like vibe with good food and drinks. Apparently, they changed owners AGAIN just a few months ago. All of the legit Mexican items- gone! I was really bummed because Orange County really doesn't need yet another mediocre attempt at a vibey sushi spot that serves WARM FISH. * The bartender was great! I honestly felt horrible for the staff. They open at 3:00, and I came in at 4:00 to a literal graveyard. I really hope the guys who waited on us get out fast before this place goes down. I know their tips are probably not even $20/a day. * The sushi items were all warm. I got nauseous within the hour after consuming them. * By 5:00 only one other table had arrived and they were also shocked at the massive disappointment so they spent their time waiting for cocktails, on their phones trying to make arrangements to go to another restaurant. So within two hours, they had two tables. * Yelp is deceiving- their reviews are mostly for the old place. Their menu is a disaster right now. There's limited sushi, brisket sandwich, wings, and other weird hodgepodge selections of oddities. The interior is almost exactly the same as Taps. They kept all of the furniture and decor. Maybe this should be a tear down and star over. It's really sad because we could use an old school Mexican restaurant with mariachi's and Sunday champagne buffet brunch. Just look at how El Torito Grill in Brea kills it on Sundays. Taps used to kill it on Sundays too. Where are the smart investors?! Come save this spot!
