Fresh fish Generous cuts Specialty rolls Great quality for the price If you're looking for affordable sushi in Orange County, save this place. I recently checked out Eat's Sushi in Costa Mesa, and honestly, I wasn't expecting the quality to be this good. The fish was fresh, the portions were generous, and everything was beautifully presented. (The eel was just a little dry for my personal taste, but everything else was excellent.) One thing I really loved is how extensive the menu is. They have everything from classic nigiri and sashimi to specialty rolls, bento boxes, 1 udon, and 1 ramen, so there's something for everyone. The rolls were packed with ingredients instead of mostly rice, and every bite was well-balanced and flavorful. If you're a uni lover, I highly recommend trying theirs. And don't skip the Salmon Blue Crab the subtle truffle aroma takes it to another level.

I've heard great reviews about this place so I was excited. Beef curry bowl (5/5); I just wanted a bite of curry so I got this. I ordered a small and holy this was massive. I didn't know there was a runny egg also so thats bonus with the added texture of creaminess. The beef was fatty and portion was generous. The curry was great as well. Tempura Zaru (5/5): I was really craving udon on a hot day so this was perfect. It comes with a few pieces of tempura (shrimp and vegetable). Perfect side dish for the udon. The udon is dipped in a cold citrus sweet concentrated sauce. I really liked how the udon bounces the taste of the sauce. I was excited about this place already and it exceeded my expectations. Definitely might be one of my top restaurants in OC.

And thank god we did because the lines were really forming! I can see why this is a hit. The prices are so affordable, the taste is authentic and fresh, the vibe is cozy and friendly. It's a perfect place for a catch up with your girlfriends or a trendy date spot without breaking the bank. I ordered a lunch set and I think it was only $15 for the whole spread! We shared a grilled beef/cow tongue and it was perfectly seasoned and topped with finely chopped scallions. Very good! My friends really enjoyed their fresh udon and soba noodles. They kept raving loudly about how good the meal was, I think we are coming back!

The sides that came with the combo were interesting. I liked the root veggie thing and the lady liked the sesame paste tasting thingy. Not sure what either were. Miso soup had a nice clam flavor.

We started with the seaweed salad and yakitori, which were both tasty and made great appetizers. As nigiri lovers, we were excited to try all the different selections. My favorites were definitely the toro and yellowtail, and the uni was sweet and delicious! One thing I really appreciated was the fish-to-rice ratio. The nigiri had a small amount of rice, so you could really enjoy the fish without feeling too full too quickly. The fresh rolls were also yummy, with a good amount of fish and nicely balanced seasoning. Overall, it's a great spot if you're looking for good AYCE sushi at a great price. The staff were also super kind and friendly, which made the experience even more enjoyable! What we ordered: -Seaweed Salad -Yakitori -Nigiri (tuna, toro, salmon, salmon belly, sweet shrimp, scallop, yellowtail, albacore, uni, salmon egg) -Pepper Me Crazy (in: spicy tuna, cucumber, top: yellowtail, jalapeno, sauce: mustard, hot sauce) -Salmon In & Out (in: spicy salmon, cucumber, jalapeno, top: salmon, jalapeno, sauce: spicy mustard, hot sauce) -Kaboom (in: spicy tuna, cucumber, jalapenos, top: albacore, jalapenos, green onions, sauce: garlic ponzu, hot sauce) -Tuna & Salmon Temaki (hand rolls)

While the portions are on the smaller side, the meat had great marbling and tasty marinades. Despite food taking a long while to arrive, the staff was attentive with frequent water refills throughout the meal. A small but memorable touch: complimentary hot green tea! If you're craving quality Japanese BBQ and don't mind paying a premium, this spot is worth checking out. Note that the restaurant is small, suitable for solo dining or small groups. Just be prepared for a dining experience where everything is petite... except the bill. Tip: Bring cash for a discount!

I considered tonkatsu ramen but decided to order a large spicy miso ramen instead, Make it a large for $1.50 is a great deal. I found myself staring at a mount of vegetable toppings when my ramen arrived. The next thing I noticed was the wavy kitakata noodle that reminded me of chewy homemade noodle. I tasted the broth by itself before slurping in my ramen. The whole package was a winner for my taste buds. I learned from Madison that this location in Costa Mesa was established in 2014, the first international Kitakata joint outside Japan.
