What diners say — our read

There is no middle ground in these 28 reviews. The staff tends to be raised approvingly here, averaging 4.5 stars.

More reviewers landed on 5 stars than any other score — 20 of 28. What nobody raises here is tidiness — it goes unmentioned across all 28 reviews. The split is 24 positive to 3 negative across 28 rated reviews, with 1 in the middle.

On the inspection side the picture is cleaner: DBPR graded this kitchen an A (93/100), with 1 intermediate and 4 basic violations. Whatever the reviews argue about, sanitation is not the weak point. That result dates from June 3, 2026. The trend across inspections is decline. That puts it ahead of 53% of graded kitchens in Orange County. What the inspector actually wrote up: food & equipment thermometers provided and accurate and food-contact surfaces clean and sanitized.

Nothing here pulls in opposite directions — an unusually clean read. The reviews themselves follow, unedited and newest first.

    35 minutes to get 2 California roll pickup. Why?

  • May 24, 2026

    I had a disappointing experience at this restaurant. The service did not meet expectations, and it seemed that the chef’s mood may have impacted the quality of our visit. The worst experience I had in any restaurant

  • May 16, 2026

    Great service with amazing food! I will definitely be coming back.

  • May 14, 2026

    This Aloha roll is the best roll I’ve ever had! Will be coming back next weekend!

  • May 13, 2026

    Excellent food. We did not have hibachi this time. We sat in the dining room and actually for me was preferable

  • May 4, 2026

    A very upscale and elegant, Sushi Restaurant, with attentive service and attention to detail in the culinary arts which are their menu item displays. Bella is the epitome of customer care and engagement. 10/10

  • May 1, 2026

    First time coming here and the service was amazing, the food was delicious and very generous portion sizes.

  • April 28, 2026

    I would need to try other places to compare, so far it was an average experience.

  • April 26, 2026

  • April 26, 2026

    Great hibachi and sushi restaurant! The food was fresh and delicious, and the hibachi was cooked perfectly. Our server Jenny was super sweet, friendly, and gave amazing service. She made our experience even better. I would definitely come back!

  • April 26, 2026

    Absolutely top 2 or 3 sushi we’ve ever had and we have been to countless high end spots. Service was perfect. They’ve brought happy hour back so I’m excited to come back and try it!

    perfect sushi spot in winter garden and very reasonably priced.

  • April 25, 2026

    My family and I come here all the time, the sushi’s really good and we always get great service!

  • April 20, 2026

    If I could leave 0 stars I would. I’d think twice before going to this place . This was easily one of the worst dining experiences I’ve had. The service was slow and inattentive from the moment we walked in. We waited way too long just to be acknowledged, and even longer for our food. When it finally came out, it was beyond disappointing. The sushi was delicious ,the hibachi on the other hand questionable … dishes were bland and poorly prepared. Not long after taking a bite, I started to feel sick, which made the whole situation even worse because I waited until the food was completely prepared and on the plate to eat. What really pushed things over the edge was how it was handled. The manager was useless and completely dismissive and refused to do anything about it, saying there was “nothing she could do.” No apology, no attempt to make it right—nothing. When I refused to pay for food that made me sick, she escalated the situation by calling the cops, which was honestly shocking and unnecessary.not to mention when I checked my receipt after I left I was double charged Between the questionable food quality, lack of care, and how poorly the situation was handled, I would not recommend this place to anyone.***** DO NOT EAT HERE ****!!! There are plenty of other places you can go, to enjoy delicious food This place is not one of them unless you want to get sick !!!

  • April 20, 2026

    Lacking seasoning and flavor, very bland and for the price disappointing. Not horrible, but definitely not a place I would return to for Japanese teppanyaki or sushi. It's popular for this area and I overheard some people saying they really liked it, but I am particularly picky when it comes to authentic flavors and it was just missing them.

  • April 19, 2026

    Jenny was an amazing hibachi server. Super attentive and provided very good service. The food was incredible and we will definitely be returning.

  • April 18, 2026

    Aji was sooo good. Everything we got was amazing, no complaints at all. The Happy Mama Roll was my favorite for sure, I’d literally go back just for that. And our server Ellie was super sweet and nice, she made the whole experience even better. Definitely recommend!

  • April 17, 2026

  • April 17, 2026

    This sushi spot is amazing! Everything taste incredible, and the service is great. Highly recommend
