This is real Japanese food. There is a sushi bar and even a room to sit on the floor. Great Fun.
There is usually a wait so be prepared. Its worth it/ I love the skewers. Bacon wrapped Asparagus and the Large prawns are the family favorite. Try the ponsu beef. Its a real treat!
Pros: GREAT FOOD
Cons: None

I have lived in Japan for 27 years and going to Hond Ya is like eating at a good izakaya in Tokyo except for the American beer.
They have a good variety of food and authentically prepared. Offers items not commonly found at other Japanese restaurants so it draws Japanese customers from far away.
Definitely worth trying!
Pros: Just like being in Japan!
Cons: Crowded!

This is one of my favorite restaurants in Orange County. I love Japanese and I love Tapas...so this place is kind of an Asian Tapas place with all it's small dishes to order and share. Try the miso eggpant and the butterfish....yum!!! The Cheese Age and also the bacon wrapped Okra A+++
Pros: Lots of different dishes to choose from-inexpensive too
Cons: long waits on weekends

It's good to finally see a good sushi place open late around here. Sometimes you just get that craving after a night out and now I know where to go. It's pretty much always busy (the 2 times I've been) but the servers are really nice and try to take care of you as fast as possible. Their hot items are pretty standard, but still good, but their rolls are definitely choice. I'd recommend coming early to enjoy it more, but its great no matter what time you go.
Pros: Food, service, open late

This is the best! There's nothing more to say about this restaurant. It has good traditional Japanese food, and all of it's good. There's quite a wait, but still worth it. Yes, it's that good.

Honda YA is the only restaurant open in Tustin up to 1:00am in the morning. From the time of opening at 5:30pm there is a waiting list, but it's always best to get there early to enjoy the best Japanese food in the OC. You'd think you were in Japan based on the quality of the food and attentiveness of the waiters and waitresses. My love the exotic sushi selection and most of all meat on the sticks.

OK... so i have been going to Honda Ya for a few years now and have seen its growth for those of you who are dual yelp users this is an amazing restaurant the izakaya style is wonderful for the late night diner but remember the lines to eat are always growing and the food quality is going down with its growing popularity.
But trust me its worth trying. Wow ginger pork..
Pros: great food, ambience
Cons: price, service, long lines

After living 6 years in Japan, I have found Honda-ya to be the closest thing to an authentic Japanese izakaya in Orange County (Shinsengumi is good, too, but it's in Torrance). Sushi is not the specialty here. This is a great place to go for yakitori, ramen, and a chuuhai or draft beer. In the usual izakaya style, you can order a la carte as you drink. An order or takoyaki here, one of edamame there, and so on. The combination plates are the affordable way to go in more American style dining, but the a la carte dishes are worth the extra expense when I want to enjoy the nostalgia (it cost $85 for my wife, daughter, and me when we ate the traditional fare, though).
Get there right when it opens at 5:30 PM if you don't want to have to wait long.

This is a great example of what a fun restaurant should be. This is not a romantic spot nor is it a place for a quiet evening. This is a place to grab a few friends and enjoy the food, drinks and company. There are booths as well as one large community area where you will sit elbow to elbow with fellow patrons. This isn't a place to order entrees. The style is simple, snack and drink to your heart's content. The "Yaki-tori" is all on a stick, ranging from chicken hearts (very recommended) to bacon wrapped asparagus to quail eggs. There is more on the menu however. There are rice dishes, noodle dishes and side dishes. I recommend the Tako-Yaki (lil squid-balls). Although the beer is a lil pricey (it's almost always pricey at Japanese restaurants) the food is very reasonable. For fun times and great food go to Honda Ya.
Pros: tasty vitels, fun atmosphere, great crowd
Cons: No reservations, weekends = a little wait
