Sushi Dake feels like a little hidden gem of a restaurant. I've driven by this place several times and have always wanted to try it. I finally got my chance and it was an amazing experience. The sushi was very fresh and tasty. The server was so sweet and personable. It reminded me so much of the small cozy restaurants I have visited in Japan. This is going to be my go to spot for some late night sushi read more

TLDR: The price is decent, in the $$ range. The food is good overall. They nail presentation on par with most sushi restaurants, the food taste great, and the atmosphere is welcoming. If you have an appetite and want to try a new sushi spot out I recommend stepping in through those doors. I have a feeling you'll find something you'll like. Review: When you first enter you will hear the hostess / waitress say, "irasshaimase!" As you walk through two sectional partitions with a lot of drawn sketches and pictures. You're then shown your seat, I was sitting in the corner to the right that seats four. The atmosphere and vibe is a dimly lit room with a single light fixture above each table. There are mirrors all around. Upon seating you will see laminated menus held together by rings and another laminated order menu that you can use a dry erase marker on. I ordered: 1. Iced Green Tea 2. Tuna Lover 3. Truffle Salmon 4. Sashimi Salad 5. Salmon belly sushi (2x) 6. Yellowtail belly sushi (2x) 7. Mackerel sushi (2x) 8. Smelt egg (2x) 9. Salmon egg (2x) 10. Karaage Appetizer 11. Potato Shrimp Appetizer Overall, the fish was good or par with most sushi restaurants in the area. Sushi Dake has finessed their presentation so that the items look appetizing. Their nigiri sushi is on the more average side. If you go here I'd recommend sticking to the more sashimi dishes or rolls. The karaage appetizer is well seasoned and juicy. Some bites were borderline a bit more salty but combined with the given sauce, the bites were well defined. I'd say it would taste what you'd expect a karaage chicken to taste like. The potato shrimp had a lighter batter and seasoned perfectly to my tastes. I enjoyed the potato and shrimp combination. Out of the two, this was my favorite to try. The Chef's picks if I recall were the Tuna Lover - it's a piece of tuna that wraps around minced tuna and microgreens. A sliced jalapeno is placed on top. There's a citrusy sauce poured on top (Ponzu?) that adds a unique profile to the fish. The Truffle Salmon has a quartered or thinly sliced cherry tomato on top with a little bit of truffle. This sashimi piece is also sauced in a truffle oil. The sashimi pieces are placed over a thinly sliced lemon for an added citrus profile. You can taste the combination of ingredients if you eat the whole thing with the sliced lemon. The taste is more prominent without the sliced lemon. Out of the Tuna Lover and Truffle Salmon, the Tuna Lover was my favorite to try. The sashimi salad had a nice dressing to it with assorted fish. This dish is probably my favorite out of all the items. The salad itself was fresh and crisp to eat. There are sliced avocados in the dish as well. A bite combined with all the ingredients tastes great. The nigiri sushi was average in taste. The fish used on top was good but the rice could have been better seasoned with vinegar. My guess is that the rice wasn't soaked in rice vinegar properly as it seemed more dry than I am used to. Overall, it is passable but you probably didn't come for basic nigiri pieces. I will definitely come back to try other items. read more

We recently revisited Sushi Dake after a while and had an excellent experience. The service, food, and atmosphere were all exceptional. The staff was very kind and welcoming to our kids, making the night even more enjoyable for our family. We ordered the 911 Roll, Firecracker Roll, Eel Roll, Scallop Roll, and California Roll, and each one was fresh, flavorful, and beautifully executed. It's clear they genuinely care about both the quality of their food and the overall experience. We're really glad we returned -- we plan to come back again soon! read more

We stumbled on Sushi Dake before our Anaheim Ducks game AND right after a massage -- and it was ABSOLUTELY incredible! Every bite was 1000% phenomenal and flavorful . From start to finish, this place delivered on quality AND vibe! We were greeted right when we walked in and seated super quickly (even though it was a little busy). The staff was attentive and genuinely friendly the whole time -- such a great atmosphere for a date night or fun dinner with friends. The signature sushi and fresh rolls were delicious, and prices were totally reasonable too -- most fresh/signature rolls are around $16-$21 on average with some special rolls a bit higher (think ~$17-$20+ per roll) -- great quality for the price! Perfect spot for sushi lovers -- we're definitely coming back next time we're in town! read more

Tonight we found this cute sushi place near my friends house. Not sure what to expect but it was a nice surprise. We were greeted by a friendly woman who showed us to a table next to screens filled with manga style drawings dating back to 2023. We started with the miso soup which was yummy. I got the spider roll which was delicious and he got the Chirashi which he also enjoyed. Nice presentation, see the photo. And a fun surprise of strawberries with whipped cream as a twist on the traditional after dinner mint. We would definitely go back. read more

After a long day at Disneyland and finding Sushi Dake was a great ending to our trip. Its about 15 mins away from Disney. We were welcomed by 3 workers, who were all very kind and attentive. We worked the shrimp tempura udon, dragon roll and salmon. Food was very fresh, my husband said that was the beat salmon he's ever had. Definitely a new spot for us when we come to Anaheim! read more

We went here for a late Thursday night meal & we're completely blown away how delicious the food was. Place was in a small mini mall (parking limited). The inside was dark with a centrally located sushi bar. Service was quick. Plenty of sushi, sashimi, ramen, udon choices. There some great vegetarian options as well. We ordered karaage, yellowtail & mackerel sushi, vegetable roll, vegetable goyza, avocado roll, miso soup & cold sake (kabota junmai). The fish was so fresh & flavorful. The vegetable roll was fantastic with a mix of pickled vegetables & seaweed. Definitely a must order! The cold sake had so much flavor & complemented the meal. Only downer was the miso soup, tasted watered down. Overall loved the place 9/10; service 9/10 & will return when in the area. read more

Just came back after a few years away and oh my gosh talk about time travel. It feels like not much has changed and I really love feeling that especially with so much going on out in the world. The service is always welcoming. The ambiance is absolutely beautiful. I love this place!!! I highly recommend for anyone who really just wants good sushi. I have many great memories at this place. Their apple juice is so delish too, I hope that brand does not get changed. read more

I really wanted to like Dake Sushi, but unfortunately the food just didn't deliver. The service was actually decent and the staff were friendly, so no complaints there. That said, the sushi itself was easily the worst I've had. Everything tasted overly fishy and not very fresh. We ordered the Philly roll, the Aloha roll, and albacore sushi, and none of it stood out in a good way. It was technically edible, but definitely not enjoyable. I honestly lost my appetite halfway through. Hate leaving a negative review, but I wouldn't come back for the food. read more

Came here based on the reviews our first and last time ever I have never met a server so rude than the guy that was working here. I'm not even exaggerating when I say when we were asking him for chop sticks and napkins he literally walked off while we were ordering our food. Never again I'll come back here. If you don't want to serve people don't be a server read more

My boyfriend and I had a Sunday evening free and thought so have some sushi but somewhere new. We searched for places open quite late, we started our search around 9 o'clock. Saw some pictures and reviews then were on our way. We were greeted as soon as we walked through the door, sat down in a beautifully romantic dim lit dining room. Service was on par, and food was so delicious! We had sashimi, udon, chicken cutlet and a roll. All great!!!! Definitely coming back! read more

Very friendly staff, cozy atmosphere, and the food was pretty good, on top of that they open late, so we wouldn't miss a good sushi meal. read more

I go to this place very often for late night sushi! Recently, Ive noticed such a beautiful food display in my takeout orders lately so I had to take a picture and share!

Even dining in for 1 after 10pm doesn't seem weird there! read more

I rarely write reviews but this needs to be said. I ordered the "spicy black ramen" because I was craving some ramen, turned out it was just spicy Shin ramen with a bit of seaweed and green onion on top. I could have easily make this at home AND ADD AN EGG to it. This is extremely lazy and sad for a Japanese restaurant. The sashimi and sushi were decent but in no way great, and definitely doesn't excuse the instant noodle pack for $12 read more

Food is delicious and the staff is super friendly, one of my favorite spots! The rice bowls and gyoza are my go-to

I found this place on Yelp while we were in the area 1 night. Kind of a scary sketchy spot especially since we're not from the area. The place was dark and quiet but inside the restaurant there was a big party the waiter was tending to. He did let us know it might be a bit of a wait for our foods bc of the large party ahead of us. Surprisingly it was not long at all. Everything we ordered was pretty good! I would say this place is on the pricier side so beware if you get hungry and start ordering everything on the menu like us. However food was amazing so you will not be disappointed! We even had some for leftovers the next morning and still bomb! I recommend ordering the ika sashimi! Omg sooo freakin bombbb!!! It had masago on top and it was heaven! read more

Writing this after a night out with my Gf. We were looking for a sushi spot to eat at for valentines day and we stumbled upon this restaurant. Service was pretty good, the store was pretty nice so we didn't have any speculations that the food would be bad. I'm leaving this review because my girl and I got food poisoning after eating here, not quite sure how fresh their fish are but we do remember one of the servers telling us that they had to defrost some of our orders, isn't sushi supposed to be fresh? Anyways our case might not be the same for others but I'm just throwing this out there for people who are looking to dine in at Sushi Dake, I would really like to know what their food prep process is cause it's not cool that we had to pay a pricey meal and end up getting food poisoning the next day. read more

Came here on a Saturday as soon as they opened with a party of 10! It's a small place but they made it work! Let me tell you Howard took care of each and every one of us, all the food came out fresh and in a timely manner considering there were so many of us and not to mention we're a big hungry group! Everyone treated us so well but poor Howard was going back and forth with all our craziness! The Ultimate Spam roll was the best!! I was a little skeptical at first but I'm so glad I got it because it did not disappoint! Great place 10 out of 10 would definitely recommend!! read more

Great bang for buck chirashi bowl for $22. You get an octopus salad, regular salad, and seaweed salad in addition to your bed of four kinds of fish, shrimp and tamago. I don't even know where to begin with the taste profile, every fish tasted delightful. Tamago was a great finish to the meal. I phone ordered take out at 10pm on a Friday and host mentioned my order would be ready 30-45 minutes, so if you can, come early as this joint gets very busy from a daily perspective. Definitely a spot I love hitting up on repeat. read more
