I've been in OC for almost 8 years and have avoided this place simply because of its name. Thought it was another one of those wanna-be sushi places catering to the not-so-sensitized palate. After getting a few recommendations from J-food connoisseurs, I decided to try it out. Brought my folks too. Sashimi was fresh. We had yellowtail, salmon, sweet shrimp and tuna (they were out of toro). Not the best tasting sashimi I've ever had, but for the price, it's worth it. $9 gets you 6 pcs of thick sashimi. We also ordered a lunch combo of tempura and yellowtail collar. Which were very tasty. Even came with miso soup and rice. All that for $8. The table next to us ordered mixed sashimi, and looked very good. Will try next time. Will also try their chirashi next.
Pros: best value
