    The food was fresh, very tasty. If you visit, then you should try the tuna with lotus chips, and the premium toro. Restuarant was fairly small, and they have a fancy full screen waterfall behind the bar. Staff was friendly, and price is rather expensive.

    Good quality sushi but...: Great quality sushi fish, but rice in it was below average and inconsistant. Rice on some of my sushi was hard, some was too sticky and pasty. I felt bad for the fish.
    Some of their sushi, especially the ones on their 'daily special' menu were just as good as the ones served in good sushi restaurants in Japan or Nobu Manhattan. But again, that's considering fish only.
    Service needs improvements as many previous reviews have commented.
    I would say the price I paid was fair since some of the fish I had on my last visit was just superb. I hope their rice improves.

    Hands down the best Japanese restaurant in Orange: I've been to many Japanese restaurants during my travels, but this restaurant is in a league of its own. Master Sushi Chef Takashi Abe's dishes are a work of art, both in its presentation and in its flavor. The ingredients are incredibly fresh and top notch. All in all one of the best dining experiences me and my wife have had in years.
