    Spicy edamame
    Terrence Y.

    It's a the food court in Foothill Ranch, but it's surprisingly good. They have both indoor and outdoor seating so it's great for any size group. They have lunch and daily specials so it is affordable as well as good. I love that they have various Japanese dishes besides sushi such as udon. They're always very fast and friendly so you can get in and out quickly.

    If you're looking for good sushi in the area, I absolutely recommend Ozen. Not only is the food amazing with some of the freshest and best quality fish, but top tier service is provided by their entire staff. I can't wait to go back and try everything I can possibly eat!

    I've been going to this restaurant for about a year now, and it's one of my favorite places because it's close to my house and always consistent. On weekends, they have live music on the outdoor patio, which makes the atmosphere really nice and relaxing. The food is very good and they have a great variety - not only sushi. My favorite dish is the teriyaki chicken combo. The prices are decent and the service is always great.

    Good bang for your buck. Of all the spots at Foothill Town Center... this one seems to be getting the most foot traffic. They have daily specials and combos that are unbelievably cheap. The dinner bentos range from $16-18, we normally get the pork cutlet and the beef teriyaki. Comes with your choice of California roll (8 pcs) or tempura. Salad, rice, miso soup, & 2 pcs of gyoza. For apps, we like the cucumber salad, edamame, & the baked mussels. They also have sushi combos for $14-20. We usually get the CA roll + crunch roll + spicy tuna hand roll combo. Great service. One of our go to date night spots.

    My ultimate favorite sushi spot ever! I love how close it is and it feels like such a neighborhood spot. Their fish quality is excellent and their rolls are made perfectly every time. The chefs are very nice and they let us try different menu items when we sit at the bar. All the waiters are very accommodating and attentive. My family and I come here at least once a week. It's such a treat to be able to get such good sushi conveniently.

    The sushi was pretty good! I wouldn't get the ramen again. Honestly instant Jin or Shin ramen are better and more affordable. The ramen had little flavor and the veggies in it were fine. The service was a bit strange. The 2 people working seemed very nice, but after serving the food we were left alone. All we wanted was the check to leave, but we couldn't get their attention. They were off doing other things. We were the only table too? No big complaints though! would come again for the sushi.

    I was on a work trip and was looking for something to eat for lunch. I found this sushi place on yelp. When I entered the restaurant I was greeted by staff who found me a seat immediately. The staff were friendly and very helpful. I ordered the gyoza and the dragon roll. The gyoza was cooked to perfection and the filling was delicious. The sauce that came with it was the perfect combination with the gyoza. The star of the show was the dragon roll. The sushi was rolled perfectly and the meat, cucumber, avocado and the eel sauce were phenomenal. The portion size was great and you get a lot of food for a reasonable price. The ginger and the soy sauce went great with the sushi. The ambiance is customer friendly. A great place to go for sushi and the menu had some other great options if sushi is not a favorite.

    Went there for a late lunch. The staff was very friendly and the food was delicious. This will be our new sushi place.

    This location of Ozen Sushi is part of the Food Festival Food Court in Foothill Ranch. They offer indoor seating and there is also plenty of patio seating outside in the food court. Not being a sushi lover nor liking seafood in general I agreed to eat here with a sushi-loving friend once I saw a handful of teriyaki offerings. I ordered the beef teriyaki bento which, along with pieces of beef, included rice, salad, 2 gyoza, and tempura veggies & shrimp. Yeah, my friend grabbed the shrimp. The bento came with a delicious miso soup. It was a lot of food for the price, a good deal, but the food was average. The beef pieces were a mix of textures, some tender some a bit chewy. The rice and salad were fine. I thought the tempura veggies were excellent while the gyoza were simply "okay". I ordered an Arnold Palmer to drink. Not sure if it was the lemonade or iced tea but something tasted weird. Avoid this beverage here. It was a decent meal at a good price for what you'd expect at a food court.

    My coworker had told me about this spot and I'm glad I tried it!…read more After a mile run, me and my husband decided to get dinner here. We were greeted by Steve. Very friendly, attentive, and a busy bee! It was nice to see regulars there for dinner as well. Food was great. I got their Caribbean roll and Lover roll. Both very big sizes and delicious. We'll definitely come back again! Thanks for a nice first dining experience Sashimi team!

    A little disappointed. I'm usually not one to leave negative reviews, especially for Japanese…read morerestaurants, but I feel like they have potential to do better -- which is why I wanted to leave an honest review. FYI -- no photos because we were busy with a cranky toddler. First, the service was genuinely great. The sweetest lady helped us with the menu and served our food, and we really appreciated her kindness. We were also given complimentary edamame, which was thoughtful, although it was bland, dry, and cold -- almost like it had been sitting in the fridge for a while. Since it was complimentary, we didn't think too much of it. For the mains, we ordered the beef teriyaki and chicken teriyaki bento specials. Unfortunately, both proteins were sliced extremely thin. The chicken especially had a jerky-like texture, and both the chicken and beef lacked flavor. After reading other reviews, they had similar experience. The teriyaki sauce itself was also pretty bland. The tempura was okay, but the tempura dipping sauce tasted watered down and lacked the usual savory depth you'd expect. The one standout was the roll topped with salmon and avocado with spicy tuna inside. It was presented beautifully and tasted fresh and well-balanced. Based on this, I honestly think rolls are what they do best. I really hope they improve the preparation and seasoning of the chicken and beef because it was a major turnoff -- and this is coming from someone who eats pretty much everything. It's hard to justify paying around $22 for a bento when the main protein feels flavorless and insubstantial. With so many good Japanese resto in Lake Forest, I would skip this until the proteins are fixed.

    Food was delicious. Everything is made right in front of you…read more My friend and I got the hand roll lunch set which is perfectly priced and filling to just the perfect amount where you're not overly full. With the set you get edamame and miso soup. You get 4 hand rolls which you can exchange for more of one if you don't like what is offered. For instance I got an extra spicy tuna roll instead of the scallop. The service was very quick but didn't feel rushed. They give you each roll one at a time and recommend eating it right away so the seaweed doesn't get soggy. The restaurant itself is very clean and nice and is all bar seating. It's not loud where you feel like you have to yell over one another either. I would recommend getting there as early as possible. We got there around 11 or so and were seated right away and left around 11:50am and there was a huge line outside and waitlist by then. Of course it was lunch time but just to be aware get there earlier rather than later. Overall was a great place to eat. Would definitely come back again in the future. The fish and overall food was delicious and service was very fast which I enjoy.

My favorite was the scallop and yellowtail handroll. If I were to visit again, I'd probably skip the substitute the blue crab for another scallop instead since the crab flavor didn't do much for me. I love that the rice is served warm and the nori is super crispy. They recommend eating the handroll within 15s after you're served. Service is great and we were lucky there was no wait when we visited on a Sat.

    There are a few good options for vegans here. Eggplant appetizer tasted better than it looks…read more Wasn't mushy. Wasn't difficult to eat. The flavor and texture was good. The vegan roll was filling but not super flavorful but it is perfect for vegans especially those who don't eat onion and garlic. Appreciate that it's not just a simple cucumber or avocado roll. It's packed with more protein and that's what I loved about it. Ume & S hand roll was different but I actually liked it! Even with a reservation, had to wait a bit but it was chill. Nice play to enjoy good sushi.

    Wow really nice place for japanese cuisine!…read more I tried some skewers and the chicken hotplate. The prime beef skewer was my favorite! The meat was tender, had a nice balanced buttery taste that wasnt too heavy, and was cooked at just the right level of done-ness. The seasoning was just right. The bacon wrapped shrimp skewer was great as well. The shrimp was succulent and it already comes with the shell peeled which was very nice haha. The bacon on the outside had some nice crispy bits to it which added some fun textures to the skewer. Very yummy. The pork belly skewer was good too! Not as good as the other skewers I tried though. As for the chicken hotplate, it was really good! The chicken was grilled perfectly and the meat was very tender. The skin on the outside is grilled such that it's crispy, so that added some nice char flavor and texture. The arugula added some nice brightness to the dish. The lighter colored sauce had a sweet and tangy flavor to it, whereas the darker colored sauce had a sweet soy sauce flavor to it. Reminded me a lot of teriyaki sauce, but in a good way! It comes with a side of white rice and the rice was cooked perfectly. Overall a nice spot to go to for a special occasion. The ambience felt modern, clean, and kind of fancy. Seemed very upscale to me. The service was great. Our server was attentive to us and they took really good care of us. If I ever come back, I definitely want to try their nabe hot pot dishes.
