    Combo B, plus a California Roll on the side
    Kingston W.

    I moved into the neighborhood in, and I have been patronizing Sango Sushi since, 2002. This restaurant is good whenever I want a non-nonsense sushi meal. The sushi "Combo A" and "Combo B" are samplers of the most commonly ordered sushi items on one plate and provide a good meal for the solo diner. The noodle bowls are also good.

    Seasme Chicken
    Kelli L.

    I went to Sango recently since the Sango restaurant in Los Alomitos closed :'( the staff was very friendly and super helpful with my order. I ordered the Seasme Chicken which is what I would usually order at Sango. Their Seasme Chicken comes with rice, salad, carrots, coand broccoli. The main reason why I love their chicken is that their chicken is crisp and not overly salty. The Sesame chicken at this location was good but it seems it was fried a bit different? I'm hoping it was just the day that I went. But since it tasted almost the same I would still order it again. Note: -They have plenty of parking spaces. -They have plenty of indoor and outdoor seating -They are open on Monday to Saturday from 11:00 AM to 9:00 PM on Sundays they open at 12:00 PM to 8:30 PM

    Super Bento Box*

    We ordered around 11:30am for lunch. I paid and tipped. Small and quaint restaurant. I rated them three stars because the lady that took our order told me she would bring our food outside once it was ready. We were busy talking and then I realized it had been 30min! I went inside to ask and she had it on the counter packed for to-go. I was annoyed that she didn't think to call me or actually come outside where we were sitting. By the time we got our food, it was luke warm and that just left a negative impression on me. It was my first time dining here and unless my friend wants to come back, I most likely won't. We got the Super Bento box and Bento Box. Overall, the food was decent and pricing was fair for what you get. They are generous with the quantity.

    Tried new items including the baked salmon roll & Thai tea. So good. Prices may have gone up a little (what hasn't?) but the quality and portions make it alright.

    Massive bento box!

    Nice staff, quick service. Not fine dining by any stretch, but great selection and value. Will be back!

    Super Bento Box*
    Tram H.

    This is a small unassuming sushi spot which caught our attention with their sign advertising their $12.75 bento box which listed 1/2 a rainbow role, ribeye teriyaki chicken, salmon nigiri, chicken Katanga, miso soup, salad, steamed vegetables, and seaweed salad. We found out it was the starting price but ordered it anyways because it was only $18. We couldn't believe the amount of food it was and everything came out fresh, hot and absolutely delicious! It seriously is a meal for two people. Of course my husband ate all his and I had to take most of mine to go. This is a must try when you're craving a sushi meal and not looking to spend $70.

    We saw Kiwami on Yelp and the reviews were good so decided to try them out…read more We like to go out with our small dog so when we saw they were pet friendly, and the food and service reviews were good, it seemed like a good fit. We had an order of Uni, a hand roll with Wagyu and Uni, a soft shelled crab appetizer and the Kiwami roll. Everything was so good. They obviously use high quality fish and ingredients. The server was proud that their Uni is Japanese Uni which is of higher quality than many other sources. The employees were very friendly. In fact we came back a week later and had a similar experience. This looks like a go to sushi restaurant for us.

    I try to give smaller spots the benefit of the doubt and look for the silver lining, which is why…read moreI'm landing at 2 stars here instead of 1. My hope is that management can use this as constructive feedback to fix some obvious quality control and service issues. Unfortunately, this was one of the most disappointing sushi experiences I've had in the past couple of years. For $22 total ($10 for the standard Tuna Roll and $12 for the standard Eel Roll, not a dragon roll which was I think close to $20 or over), the baseline quality and service just weren't there: * Portions & Value: Both rolls were cut into 5 pieces instead of the standard 8. Paying $22 for a grand total of 10 skimpy pieces is a tough sell on value alone, but the assembly made it worse. The rolls were haphazardly made, falling apart on the plate, and stuffed with minimal fish filling. * Freshness: The fish did not taste fresh and had a strange, off flavor to it--possibly an inventory turnover issue. Freshness is everything at a sushi bar, and having to worry about food safety after a meal is never a good sign. * Kitchen Execution: The $12 Eel roll arrived completely dry without any sauce. The server brought over teriyaki sauce when I had 2 pieces left as if they forgot to put it on. So I drenched the sushi in the sauce to hopefully cover the flavor only to realize he gave me teriyaki sauce for a rice bowl instead of standard unagi/eel sauce. * Management Response: When I brought up to the manager that the eel roll really was not good, she walked back to the kitchen, came back, and simply said, I spoke with the chef and he said it was normal. Bottom Line: Errors happen in restaurants, but brushing off customer feedback, using odd sauce substitutions, and serving loose, dry rolls with questionable fish quality shows a serious need for retraining. Hopefully, management takes a closer look at what's coming out of that kitchen. Look elsewhere in OC for sushi

Today, the entire restaurant was full! It wasn't loud but you could hear a few of the larger tables conversing, not a real issue. The lunch menu has a great variety.

The chicken was grilled and flavorful, cooked perfectly! It also came with tempura shrimp and veggies. Nothing was greasy, nice and fresh too. All of their lunch specials are competitively priced, compared to other lunch specials, not necessarily Japanese food and not as good as Matsu. I can't wait until my next visit. Note the hours.

I have never met a server, a bartender, a cook that didnt go the extra mile for us! The owner herself is no different! They all are so fabulous! This past week we had Paul and his team of coworkers, Gabriel at the bar and I cant praise them enough! A really long, stressful month thus far resulted in needing a night out. A family member was finally back in town and we decided to meet at Matsu. While Amy was off, we were treated just as fabulously by Paul and team. Gabriel at the bar made excellent cocktails! Everything from our fresh nigiri to our teppan combo was delicious and fresh and nicely sized portions. I can go on and on, but if you want a darker, cool chill vibe, do the bar area. If you want teppan theatrics and fun, reserve the teppan. If you want a larger party restaurant atmosphere. They have that too! Its clean, its nice, its delicious!!! My favorite is the Lychee martini, my friends love the apple martinis, but I'll say, you can even just drink an iced water and you're still gonna love this place! Give it a try, you won't regret it! This is the type of business and employees I have zero problems supporting and recommending! Thank you for another great night Matsu!

They do this near the end of the month on Mondays. Unfortunately, this is their 3rd to last event as they're going to be doing some restructuring. The staff was very nice and accommodating. Drinks were flowing and the sashimi was non-stop. Nigiri and handrolls were also delicious and I ate until I was close to puking. It was super cool to be able to cut into the fresh fish from Mexico. It's definitely tougher than it looks. I always thought it would be easy to cut like butter, but definitely takes a lot of strength and skill. There were other tasty tuna dishes like the miso soup, salad and crispy tuna steak. I recommend sitting at the bar so you can see Chef Yamasaki cut the fish in the front row seats. It was cool to taste the varying levels of fatness of the fish. The super chutoro was practically butter. They also offered tuna to go at $50/lb. Definitely worth it. The venue is their regular restaurant but with more tables in the middle. A little loud but definitely a fun time. There were 3 birthdays too! We had ice cream mochi for dessert and there were strawberry cakes for the birthday girls. We averaged about $170 after tip and it was worth every penny.
