I'm glad to see that Tori has switched over to an AYCE menu! I always thought that their half-roll ordering would be a great venue for trying out multiple rolls and sides. The food still tastes just as good as before. They've changed the menu slightly but my go-to rolls are still there. The waitress was very helpful in introducing us to the new ordering system, and we worked out the kinks pretty quickly. We came in at around 2pm on a Friday, so ordering was quick and the food came out just as fast. I saw some people coming in wanting to order a la carte, but the waitress said they weren't able to do that at the moment. I know this might be a rough transition to a new system so I hope people will give them a chance to figure it out. Overall, the food is still great and I'm happy I can try some of their sides I've been wanting to try, but now it comes with all the rolls that I can double and triple order! I'm sure their new ordering system will be streamlined over time and I hope their AYCE transition will be a successful one. read more

Recently came here for an early dinner after seeing it on social media & we were plesantly surprised. for one, they now have AYCE sushi on the menu, regular price menu comes with sashimi & shabu hot pot - which was neat. tons of rolls to choose from & i love that it comes mostly in 4, meaning you can try plenty of different ones. They also have a good amount of fried items too! service was nice and wait time was very good. tons of seating & parking read more

I've been here before and but unfortunately.....!!!!!! Hello, I recently tried to place an order online for pick up on 7/26 2:30p. Unfortunately the website and app said you were closed. I called to try to make a phone order and the person that answered said they only take online orders. They kindly instructed me to "scroll to the bottom of the website and press order" to place an order. Didn't work. At this point my mother had arrived at the restaurant to pick up the order so I called her and told her to put me on speaker so I can translate and then she can pay to make the process easier. One of your staff members "Sam" refused to allow me to translate for my mother and basically refused to take her order. I don't understand the complication and hostility as I was willing to place the order and my mother pay in person. I really hope you see what I'm upset about and hope this doesn't occur again. Thank you, Scar (Love the food here but service will make me not want to come back) read more

We decided to try a new AYCE sushi spot instead of heading to one of our usuals on Friday evening. We saw that Tori Tori had a new AYCE menu and the pictures looked great. We were immediately greeted upon arrival, and were explained the menu. They are currently on a new, all you can eat only, menu with a fixed price. The hostess explained the ordering process very deeply. If anything, it was almost a little overwhelming, but they were helpful. There are certain menu items (premium items and hotpot) that you need to order through your waiter while you order the rest on the app. At first, it was a little difficult, and we also had some errors in our online ordering table, but we got it mostly sorted out. The menu has a fairly good selection of nigiri and rolls. There is a solid selection of appetizers as well. The menu offers the premium sashimi with a limit of 3 pcs per person. At the time, they also had hotpot dishes included in the menu. As far as AYCE sushi goes, the quality of the fish at Tori Tori was almost all fantastic. The yellowtail and salmon were some of the best I've had at an all you can eat restaurant. The tuna was ok, a little chewy, except for the bluefin sashimi which was great. As for the fried foods, if that's something you like to order at AYCE sushi, I'd keep it limited. It's all fresh and fairly well executed, but it felt like their oil might have been a little bit old or they were frying on too low of a temperature. All of our fried food were quite dark, oily, and had a bit of a fryer oil flavor. That being said, it was all still enjoyable. We only got one roll, which was a dynamite scallop type roll. The roll was ok, felt like it had a bit too much crab which tends to be a common thread at AYCE places. Our one gripe with it was that they seemed to toast/torch the whole roll rather than just the top if that makes sense. It was kind of hot throughout which made for a weird eating experience. But also the rolls are all mostly 4 pieces which is great for being able to try them without filling up. The hotpot was a surprising thing to have on the menu, but at the end of the meal we decided to split one. It was actually quite good. It was nice to have a warm and fresh cooked dish to round off the meal of raw fish and fried apps. I think Tori Tori is definitely a great option for AYCE sushi in Orange. Clearly they are still in the beginnings of implementing this menu and there are a few things that need to be sorted out/streamlined. I don't think the ordering system, especially with how much explanation it requires, is sustainable. Even the menu looked like it needed some refinement. Some things were missing pictures and didn't match the paper menu. They also didn't offer miso soup in any capacity which felt weird for a sushi restaurant (and I know they had it on the menu before implementing the AYCE). Besides any small road bumps, I think the flavor trumps all of that. I'll definitely be back sometime for AYCE sushi in the future. read more

giving this 3 stars because the menu had so many things to choose from! however my partner and i got shabu to split that had no flavor and didn't have any goma or ponzu. they also gave us the wrong shabu, sukiyaki instead of miso. the sushi was okay but i wish the normal rolls came as 4 pieces instead of 8 (california roll). my favorite part was the salmon collar we got but we also ordered the takoyaki which had way too much sauce with it. overall it wasn't horrible but i don't think we will ever come back again read more

What fresh and tasty food! I initially visited before the AYCE menu and brought along a big table of friends to try this out. The AYCE instructions/limitations were a little confusing at first but you order through a QR code. Simple enough. A stand out mention is they offer Shabu as a part of their AYCE menu!!! Shared between four was perfect. Whatever noodles are in the pot are fantastic. The shrimp pop is an excellent appetizer. The hand rolls are thin but mighty. I actually quite like that the portions/sizes lean a bit smaller so I can enjoy multiple rounds without tapping out earlier. read more

Food was delicious! Staff were super friendly and nice and explained the menu really well.

For such a long time, this has been my favorite sushi spot. I would religiously come here once a week by myself, order the Tori Special, and just enjoy the quality of the fish. It came with a plate of THICKKK premium sushi and sashimi, plus a roll. These pictures were taken on different days, but I'm a creature of habit and literally ordered the same thing every time lol. They really show how consistently good the Tori Special used to be. Anyways, I came back last week after not going for a while and found out they no longer offer the Tori Special, so I ended up doing AYCE instead. Sigh. The AYCE menu had very limited sashimi options, but the most disappointing part was that the fish quality just wasn't the same. The slices were so much thinner, and I could genuinely taste the difference. My absolute favorite sushi restaurant now feels like the same quality I could get at any other AYCE sushi spot. So sad because this place used to be such a gem! P.S. these pictures were taken prior to them switching to AYCE read more

I used to be a huge fan of this spot and loved coming here for their sushi (especially their old half-roll option), which was perfect for trying a variety of dishes without over-ordering. They've recently transitioned to an All-You-Can-Eat model, but unfortunately, the shift has really changed the experience for the worse. The quality has noticeably declined, dishes felt rushed, and standard items I order regularly came out looking and tasting different. On top of slow service, the AYCE format felt stressful...like I had to binge eat under a time limit rather than enjoying a meal. While you certainly won't leave hungry, it feels like the focus has shifted from quality to quantity. Really disappointed to see a former favorite take this direction. read more

Really good food at a great price! The service was friendly and nice. I really enjoyed my experience here and would definitely come back again! read more

Tori Tori Sushi - Sushi Bars Near Me - Orange, California

Anytime we stay near Disney, I always try to go outside of the resort areas to eat. Found this small place and was pleasantly surprised. It's not very far from Disney, but far enough from the crowds. First, the service was great. They were very nice and attentive. It was pretty slow, but it was Sunday on a holiday weekend. We ordered several sushi rolls and a pork katsu. The flavors were all delicious. The spicy scallops hand roll was great and they didn't hide it under krab or any other fillers. It was a little spicier than I expected and it was delicious. What I most appreciated was I was able to order more rolls for variety because an order was 4 pieces. The price reflected the amount and so you really could try different rolls and not pay $15-20 for each. The restaurant was cozy and tastefully decorated. They still have a sushi bar, which I always love as an option. We will definitely keep this place on the list when we are in the area. read more

To say I'm disappointed would be an understatement. I have been a repeated customer since my last review. I was craving Tori Tori sushi today and when i walked in , it just looked ...weird. I couldn't order my food to-go, i had to use door dash or Uber Eats only . Huh?! Then the prices. I almost passed out. What used to be $8 for my favorite roll has now doubled . This BOGO deal is $40. I hate the door dash menu . I can't believe you guys changed! WHY!! i just turned around and left. I'm so upset! What a waste of time, cravings and gas!! Good luck with these prices. read more

Tori Tori Sushi - Baked Lobster Roll + Shrimp Lover + Crunch Dragon. This was THEE BEST crunch my mouth has ever tasted! - Sushi Bars Near Me - Orange, California

I'm so glad I found this place!! I'm usually a creature of habit... so I don't usually venture out from the normal spots unless I find a place worth trying. I've seen this place many times, but always passed it by as I know my spots that I enjoy in this price range. However, I decided to finally give this place a try and I'm so glad I did! I got the Tori Special (which, for some odd reason can't be ordered online) but I called to place the order. I got the salmon train for my four piece roll when I brought it home and took my first bite, it wasn't an amazing experience. The fish was nice and tender with great flavors and the rice was seasoned perfectly. Everything tasted amazing and I felt full, but not stuffed.

Tori Tori Sushi - Tori Special - Sushi Bars Near Me - Orange, California

Sadly, Tori Tori has switched to a mandatory all-you-can-eat menu and removed all previous menu options. They used to be the best because you could order 4-piece rolls, so this transition is counter to what made them so unique and great before. Unfortunately, it doesn't make sense to come to Tori Tori any longer if there is pressure to eat all I can eat to get value for the price. We used to come to Tori Tori because of quality, not quantity. I wish the establishment and wonderful staff all the best, but the new menu is more expensive and is less relaxing & fun. Please go back to the old Tori Tori! I beg you! I will forgive you! read more

The service here was good...the servers were friendly and attentive. However, unfortunately the sushi itself was pretty meh. I came on a weekday evening with some friends, and we all felt the same way. We ordered and shared several different 4-piece rolls, and for the price ($8-9 per half roll, which comes out to about $16-18 per full roll), the quality just wasn't there. The rolls tasted similar to what you'd get at a mediocre AYCE sushi spot: basic fillings, basic sauces, and fish that was just okay. Nothing tasted particularly fresh or distinctive, and most of the rolls ended up tasting the same. The sauces and overall flavor were pretty bland, so nothing really stood out. For the price point, we were expecting more than average in terms of flavor or quality, but it didn't deliver. Although I appreciate the good service, the food just didn't feel worth it. Overall, I wouldn't go back. read more

New ownership and unfortunately, we won't be coming back, which is sad because we used to be regulars. The new ordering system made for a frustrating experience from start to finish. We had to check in at a kiosk and wait to be seated even though there were only two tables occupied. Then we were told to scan a QR code and place our own order. The menu was confusing, and after our appetizers came out, we waited 45 minutes with no sushi. A server finally asked if we had ordered anything else... yes, through the QR system you told us to use. To top it off, we spent the entire meal swatting away gnats, no one apologized for the delay, and we waited forever to get our check. You would think they would've at least comped our drinks or given us the multiple appetizers they mistakenly brought out for the inconvenience. We left still hungry even though it was supposedly "all you can eat" and ended up eating Taco Bell afterward. This place used to be one of our favorite sushi spots...sad that we won't be coming back anytime soon. read more

Great service, plenty of seating, and I love that portion sizes are small so I don't feel pressured to overeat if I order too much. The food was also delicious! I love the citrus sauce on the tellowtail Nigerian and the baked mussels came out nice and hot. read more

I was pretty excited when I saw how affordable their rolls were - most of them are under $10, which is almost unheard of these days. But I quickly realized why: each order comes with just 4 pieces. Still, the rolls themselves were solid. My favorite was the Tori Chips. The house-made chips paired with sashimi ceviche (including my favorite, salmon) and little bits of mango made for a fun and tasty bite. I did not like the Spicy Crispy Rice Salmon. The rice wasn't crispy. The toppings were good but I think there was just too much sauce making the whole thing soft. The restaurant is small and cozy, and the service was friendly. Plenty of parking in the area too, which is always a plus. Overall, a nice little spot to grab some sushi without breaking the bank. Perfect for a quick lunch eat without overstuffing yourself. read more

This place went downhill when they changed to all you can eat. So sad but the quality of their food definitely subpar. Please avoid save your money. read more

Place has good sushi, however they recently switched over to AYCE ONLY. they don't make it clear when you sit down so watch out if you think the AYCE is a choice- it's NOT, that's your only option. They also still have the old menus with menu items individually priced- which is extremely confusing then as to why it's only AYCE. the manager/owner was very kind and gave us half off. However, I was really disappointed that wasn't made clear to us when we first arrived. They lost a customer unfortunately. Hope they bring back a la cart option read more

Sushi quality was fresh and tasty. Beautifully decorated store with limited seating. The service was slow but we were told there would be extra wait time for the salmon kama. A bit on the pricey side but worth it for a quick treat-yourself lunch! read more

Came here after they changed to AYCE and it was soooo good. The quality is quite high for AYCE, and the food came out so quick. We had barely pressed order by a couple of minutes and most of our order was already out. Despite how fast it was, the quality of the food and raw fish was quite high. We almost felt like we were ripping off the restaurant with how good the quality and amount of fish was! read more

The customer service is fast yet very professional. It's very clean inside. They have TV's and were playing the NFL game! The sushi rolls were absolutely delicious and very affordable. I fell in love with the salmon and mango roll, the salmon delight. It was so fresh and sweet. I will definitely be back! read more

Came here the other night with my sister and i was super excited to try it because i have always seen it and it always seems to be so busy!!

The service was nice and it wasn't too busy. read more

We haven driven by this spot many times and just never tried it and we finally did today. Wow! This will be our new go to spot for sushi from now on. The service was great, and it was quiet since it's a Monday at 4pm. The location is small and cozy. I liked that the rolls were 4 pieces since that meant we could try more than usual. The rolls were good, rolls are usually hit or miss with me since they're normally too saucy. The 3 we got were good and had diff flavors (sexy Hawaiian, monster roll, and unagi xo). My 5 star goes to the yellowtail jala, omg it was SO GOOD and the yellowtail just melted in my mouth. We ended up ordering another one and I could honestly just eat this all day. I can't wait to have it again. I also got the bluefin tuba nigiri and that also melted in my mouth. The quality of the fish reminded me of having sushi in Japan. I can't wait to go back and get the nigiri's and the yellowtail jala! read more

The service was wondeful...the sushi not so much. The sushi quality was fine but they put ponzu or soy sauce on almost all of the sashimi and nigri. I can't have soy sauce and let the server know but the fish kept coming drenched. Also they didnt serve the tempura shrimp with dashi but with ponzu. The garlic butter shrimp was delicious and different and wasnt covered in soy. Needless to say we won't be returning. read more

This place is soo sweet and they do half portion rolls but rather big pieces. I definitely recommend coming here if you want nigiri ** its not all you can eat. But the thickness of the fish cuts was PRESENT and tasted relatively fresh. My rolls were good and none of them tasted too heavy or oily or broke apart. The appetizers are simple but not super high quality. The service was excellent, but i guess because the plaza is relatively small and empty ( enough parking). It appears really close to choc hospital and is mainly korean ran. Anyways our server was super considerate- stepped in to clear plates when our order was ready and asked thoughtful questions such as if we were sharing rolls or where to place the menu we desired when our table was full. She even got us more ginger. I got the monster and winter which was enough to feel full, but the nigiri is saw my friends eat was thickk and they especially enjoyed the pepper salmon. Affordable casual place, kind of hidden across apartment complexes. Recommend to try this place out if you're in the area! read more

I've been a regular customer for the past two years and have brought so many friends and family here because I've absolutely loved this place. Unfortunately, I'm really disappointed with the recent changes, especially the new all you can eat format, check-in process, and ordering system. It doesn't feel genuine at all. The service and experience were great before, and one of the reasons we kept coming back was because we could simply order the items we loved. I don't understand why customers are now being pushed into an all-you-can-eat option when the previous setup worked so well. I really hope you consider going back to the way things were. As it stands now, I don't see myself coming back, which is really disappointing after being such a loyal customer. read more

Loved the selections and choices for sushi, sides and sashimi!! Fast, attentive service and all in an unassuming little strip mall off the 22 freeway. Stopped in after visiting Bowers museum. Great option--appreciated that I could order just a 4 piece roll and not get too full. They have full rolls as well but I liked the flexibility as I can't eat as much. read more

Great great place for a quick pick up. I like how the menu offers four piece rolls, which allows you the opportunity to try different things in one sitting. Yellowtail lover includes Hamachi, cucumber, avocado, green onion, and Panu.

Great find - that's all read more

This is an takeout experience. SIL has a baby and all she wants is some sushi. I suggest here and order by phone. Things on the internet and what they actually have changes apparently. Anyways, the girl who answered is nice and pleasant enough. We get there to pick up the food and our stuff is not ready. Ok, fine but, our raw sushi is just sitting there on the hostess area. We wait a good 15 minutes or so. My husband freaked out and so he only ate he cooked stuff. I didn't get sick but, it def was questionable. Also, while we were in there, she needed help. There were only a few table but, she had to have been new. People were not getting their drinks. She was answering the phone, seating people, taking their orders, etc.. This place is close to my lymphatic massage place so that's why I suggested it. There are a lot of good options in Orange County... read more
