Im not kidding when I say this place is extremely good. Like very very good. Its a Italian Japanese fusion restaurant with a Vibe that takes you away to another place once you walk in. The restaurant is decorated throughout and painted on the ceiling to give a calming and serene feeling.Its one of those restaurants where you can tell that the chef in the back truly cares about the food theyre putting out.Would I recommend it? Yes.Would I go again? Yes.Would I order the exact same things? Hell yes.Should you take your baby mama and all your friends? Definitely.

Absolutely incredible, literally stunningly good food served in a wonderfully relaxed European home-kitchen type atmosphere.Photo shows salmon and mushroom risotto and uni spaghetti, with a pork bun on each of our plates.The risotto defies description, the sweetest, almost candied, fish paired with rich and creamy umami mushroom sauce.And if you like that combination, get the bread pudding and leave a big tip.

This place is so good! The food is very delicious. We ordered the scallop risotto and steak. Both came with a side salad. The scallops are juicy and fresh. We also ordered the walnut crème brulee, which was not too sweet and 100% tasty.

My BFF who is also a foodie introduced me to this establishment 12 years ago (when the sautéed mushroom salad was still an off menu item), and the quality of food here has remained excellent consistently throughout the years!The waitresses are always polite & super helpful, & we always have a hard time deciding between just ordering a bunch of appetizer as the meal, or getting our old favorite entrees. Always a great time.Reservation recommended since its a small place & always fill up quickly around dinner time.Update 6/27/23: Came back tonight to celebrate BFFs bday. Food & service is still consistently excellent 👌

I’ve coming here forever and I have always enjoyed the food. I try to change it up or get something new each time I go to keep it fresh. Of course the Uni pasta is delicious! All their salads are good too. I really like the last time we went we had this medley of mushroom salad that was super dope! Today we had a tempura fried shrimp salad that was perfect. The shrimp was lightly battered and fried with a very light dressing. I had a seared and crusted ahi tuna with eggplant and bokchoy that was excellent! See the picture below. We always have the walnut crème brulet to finish it off. It’s probably best to make reservations on the weekend. The staff are really nice and make the whole experience wonderful.

This place is a hidden gem right here in the City of Cypress! French-Asian fusion is the theme and the food is outstanding! Highly recommend the Uni Pasta, Carbonara, Sauteed Chicken and the BBQ Beef Salad you wont be disappointed!

A well-known Japanese fusion restaurant that continues to provide great twists on Italian classics. I will say this restaurant is not for everyone. If you like your Italian food rich and salty, or your portions large and family style, this will not be what youre looking for.Their plates are on the smaller and some might even say simpler side, but it continues to be popular with a decent wait if you dont show up at their opening hours. Thankfully they do take reservations.

The food was great, the atmosphere was nice and cozy, a bit small but that what great about it, it a hidden gem for Japanese and Italian fusion. The Peking pork was great my little cousin ate 3. The chicken curry curry was delicious, got the mild one and it was delicious. The appetizers were great got the beef tataki and some salad with cheese mango and baby tomatoes.

Great food and service. My friend, my husband and I went here for dinner. My sister and my old friend both recommended this place. I really like the Osso Bucco while the seafood pasta was too much tomato. I really dont like too much spaghetti and so I ate all the seafood and left most of the pasta. The waitress was concerned and asked if I like the food. I thought that was very nice of her - she sounded friendly and genuine. I am not sure if I will come back since there are so many great restaurants in the OC and Cafe Hiro was great but not spectacular, but I will certainly recommend it to other people.

I ordered the Scallop Risotto. Our server said that this is one of their most popular dishes. I felt like it was missing something. Was somewhat bland. We got the calamari which was different but good. It had Parmesan cheese all over which I must admit it tasted pretty good. Not giving up on this place quite yet. Lots of other dishes that looked really good.

We wanted to explore different city other than the ones we tried in the past and came across with Cafe Hiro. Its Japanese Italian food. I personally liked the seafood risotto and croissant bread pudding, my kids loved the carbonara spaghetti and the homemade mango and pineapple sorbet. My husband liked the 🍮 pudding. Definitely will come back to try other food on the menu since we left the restaurant in a food coma stage 😂

Their food was undercooked! We ordered three orders of food, it was all undercooked! But other than that, the bathroom smells good but it isnt clean either. And everything is so tiny and cute. If you like small things, then this is the place for you! The food was also over priced, I got uni pasta and it was 20 dollars! They did recook our order so was ok. I give it a 3 star rating.

If you don’t think Italian and Japanese food should be mixed, this place will change your mind. This completely mad concept for an eatery is one of the most popular in the area and is known for its attractive décor and its incredible fusion cooking.The string lights and painted walls make it a truly beautiful place to eat, and although it’s small that just adds to the coziness. The Uni Pasta here, an Italian style pasta dish with seaweed and wasabi root, is the restaurant’s number one seller and many people come here just to try it.Come here to discover the perfect marriage of green tea and panna cotta for yourself.

My family came here and tried the family-style omakase, a generous multi-course meal comprising three appetizers, one salad, and two pastas of our choice, plus chefs choice of an entree and a risotto. Everything was generally well-liked, with the crab cakes (more like croquettes), uni pasta, and scallop risotto being my favorites. The sautéed chicken entree and scallop carpaccio special were tasty, although I found the seared tuna salad, tuna tartar, and seafood pasta just ok. Almost half of the dessert menu was unavailable, and the desserts we got--panna cotta, banana mille feuille, and chocolate pot de crème, were decent, but nothing to write home about. Overall, it was absolutely a fun and worthwhile experience to have the opportunity to try so many different and delicious dishes. Id recommend going this route if your party is big enough.

Café Hiro is a dream of two culinary worlds coming together and could probably solve a world crisis. Amazing service inside, servers were extremely warm and friendly, and a small dining area to make the experience more personal is all you can ask for.The Beef Tataki could have been accompanied by a slightly better sear, but with the accoutrements of sauce, onion, and radish had you easily put that in the past.In my family, we love risotto. Their Seafood & Uni Risotto is easily up there in the top of the ranking. Creamy, filled with shrimp, scallops, clams, and more, they did not hold back. I could have been riding a low from the last seafood risotto where I had gotten a single mussel, and this was just the complete opposite from my last experience.Lastly, the Ossobuco had been slightly disrespected that I had been given a knife to go along with the meal, a small breeze was all it took to fall apart with how tender that beef was. Only issue here was that it could have used slightly more seasoning on the entire dish overall.

Amazing Japanese style italian food. Highly recommend the Osso Gucci and the Kurobota Pork cutlet curry. For dessert, panna cotta, pineapple sorbet and croissant bread pudding are terrific

I recently visited Cafe Hiro with a friend and had an incredibly disappointing experience. We arrived promptly at 5:30 PM, right after the restaurant had opened. Despite there being plenty of empty tables, we were seated by a server who provided us with menus. However, just a few minutes later, we were abruptly asked to leave because they claimed to be fully booked.This kind of treatment was extremely rude and unprofessional. As a customer, I expect to be treated with respect and fairness. Being asked to leave after being seated is not only an inconvenience but also a complete disregard for customer satisfaction. It was an unfortunate and frustrating experience that left a negative impression.I hope that the management of Cafe Hiro takes this feedback seriously and addresses the issue to ensure that other customers do not encounter similar situations in the future.

We celebrated my daughters 25th birthday yesterday. Excellent and delicious risotto plates were ordered (sauteed shrimp and uni in the photo). Great and efficient service as always, with a smile (that you can guess behind the face mask). Its probably my favorite Japanese fusion restaurant in the OC.

The food is very tasty and had a broad range of flavors. The service was quick and very accomodating.It’s a very good place to have good food, relax, and hangout with friends.

A really charming place with westernized Japanese cuisine. Very friendly service, but do expect to wait for your food to be expertly made. Prices are around $18+ for pasta dishes, but they have a nice deal for four people at $30 each, which includes a few appetizers, pastas, soup/salad. Will definitely be coming back for the sea urchin pasta. Parmesan is also served with your pasta.

Recently returned after about 20 years since last visit bc Im not usually in this area. But food was amazing! Price is so affordable for what it is and every dish was perfectly balanced and seasoned. Would def be a regular if I lived closer. Interior is a little run down but it still has its charms.

Uni Spaghetti lunch, still the same chef since established. Zagat rated and upheld. The flavor profile hasnt deviated in the slightest, and recipe still guarded. Creamy uni over al dente pasta, with a dollop of wasabi, enhanced with ring of jullienne nori.

While the English language’s specificity is unrivaled, I have no words to properly emphasize how amazing their food is. My wife and I are out-of-towners who make special emphasis to eat here each trip. From top-tier ingredients (seriously, the carrot, a mundane material, in the beef tongue stew was out-of-this-world, JUST THE CARROT) to diligent service, please do yourself a favor and come here. That uni pasta is a revelation and I’m not sure if food is ever gonna be the same.I really don’t understand how this place only has a 4.4 at the time of writing. 10/10 100%P.S. their curry is a godsend.

OVERPRICED, SLOW, AND BAD FOOD. Wife and I went in for lunch for the first time and noticed the high prices on the entrees so thought food must be good, but it took 40 min for us to receive the entrees - arrived at 11:50 am and we were the only one in the restaurant and did not get our food until 12:30. The worst part was the food. Wife ordered a Carbenara and I the Donkatsu. Portions were surprisingly small compare to what they charge and Dontaksu was undercook so it smelled of pork. Pasta was no better - both of us did not even finish 1/3 of our plate. Do not waste your money here.

Review №33

2021-04-26 03:51:29

Its nice that they are reopened at half capacity. Staff is working hard, but they could do a lot of small things to improve service like make sure all the entrees are served at the same time and knowing the difference between the merchant copy and the customer copy of the credit slip. Not a big deal at all. Food was great, nothing has changed there. Prices are seeing some inflation, so be prepared for some sticker shock...

Made a reservation, excellent service with the omakase (course meal service)Waiters were attentive, friendly, and informative. There were a few items on menu that couldnt be served because of lack of ingredients (seabass and scallops) but overall experience was wonderfulWould come again with friends

Review №36

2016-06-28 05:32:18

The quality of ingredients they use is excellent and I can tell they really care about the quality of food they put out. I could tell just by the appetizers of edamame and fried calamari. The fried calamari was perfection. It was not rubbery or hard, but soft and gently fried.The only thing thats preventing me from giving 5 stars are the prices. Me and my two friends ordered different pasta dishes because they were the cheaper entree options. I would come back again but just not as often.Service is attentive and excellent. I think this would be a great place for a dinner date.

The whole experience is horrible, won’t come to this place ever again.We got this part of scrubber in our food not once but twice in two different pasta during our lunch. And the attitude of the waitress is really bad. When the problem first happened, she said nothing and took away our first pasta. We asked why she said the kitchen gonna make a new one. Then when the second pasta for another person was served, we found the same thing. This time we were trying to ask why it happened. But the waitress refuse to identify what it is with the kitchen. At the end we have to stop asking what it is because the only thing we heard is she can’t ask the kitchen because she was trying to tell us she doesn’t know what it is. So she doesn’t have time to ask. This is ridiculous. Remember the first pasta the kitchen was remaking? Turn out they never remade it. When we finally accepted the fact that we will never get an answer, we decide to check out and cancel the second pasta. So we have to ask for the first one that they were supposed to remade, they said they didn’t make it because they thought after we found the scrubber in the second pasta we had, we wouldn’t want it anymore. But the truth is no one asked anything regarding the remake pasta. And the time is 40min after the waitress said they gonna make a new pasta. So we don’t know what they were doing during that 40min.The whole experience is horrible, again. It’s not only the waitress, the owner as well. Never explained why it was in our meal and never said sorry it’s their fault. They even try to say they don’t know where it came from, maybe not from the restaurant. A metal scrubber in an untouched pasta, where it can come from other than the kitchen.Just don’t go to this place. Not worth anything.

Been coming here for a decade, seriously the best restaurant in Cypress hands down, and a strong competitor for best in OC. Uni Pasta, Peking Bun app, chicken bacon carbonara, osso bucco, and everything else on the menu are AMAZING. They have Kirin on draft and Takara plum wine as well(which my wife loves). Dont hesitate, come down here, maybe make a reservation tho cause they get full fast for the evening. Another testament to their incredible food, kind service and great atmosphere. Will be coming for as long as they will be willing to serve patrons. 5 stars. ❤️

I had lunch with some of my clients and I picked Cafe Hiro because the menu looked great and the concept of a Japanese and Italian fusion restaurant intrigued me. My clients said their Japanese colleagues love Cafe Hiro and I know why. The food was delightful and the service was friendly, helpful, and efficient!

Cafe Hiro is pricey but its well worth the price. This small restaurant is like stepping into a similar restaurant in Tokyo. Its small but seems just the the right size. The staff are always friendly and helpful.Typically I go for their curry its a very unique taste but their pasta dishes are always great as well.

2019-08-22 17:49:30

Updated: its been a couple years since Ive been back here and have to say Im a tad disappointed with a few things. While the food was good the service was a bit lacking. Not only did they put our reservation down for the week before but it took them 15min just to pick up our bill. Apparently the owner is hardly there anymore, or at least not any of the times my family has gone without me, and it shows in the quality the food; fish was overcooked and slightly rubbery, some food seemed a bit lukewarm. While I still recommend coming here it doesnt quite have the flair it once did. Perhaps it was just an off day, but well see next time I drop byOld review: I always love coming to this place. Been coming here for years and have to say the pork buns and beef tataki are just simply delicious and hard to beat. The uni pasta is also a truly delicious dish, and if you get curry just be sure to get it spicy; the mild curry is just too sweet,in my opinion. And lastly I always get the panacotta for desert, perfectly soft and creamy yet still semi firm, just as it should be

Ok, I save my reviews for really good experiences. My sister and I had the omakase lunch. MMMMM delicious. We started with the calamari appetizer, one of the best weve had. The squid was fresh, tender and cooked perfectly. The seared tuna salad was sumptuous and plentiful. The uni pasta is nothing short of amazing!!! And the Chilean Seabass, oh we were too full for you and also MMMMM good! We are not dessert people, but we both thoroughly enjoyed the panecotta and green tea dessert. We shall return!

Small place, but good ambiance and very crowded. The food was great and service was good. We tried the Chicken Curry and Vegetable curry, both were very good. It is a little bit on the pricier side. Definitely recommended. I will be back for sure.

This food here is delicious. They have a unique take on Japanese/Italian food. I ordered the Chicken Cutlet and it was delicious. The only downside that I hadnt considered was the price. Be prepared to spend around $15 for an entree. But then again, you get what you pay for.

More of an eclectic fusion restaurant with very creative dishes. I was here long ago and had a squid ink pasta which was fabulous.... But you get what you pay for; this place is on the pricey side for a small cafe in this area.

Cafe Hiro is in a class of its own. Service is excellent. Food is amazing. I have never been disappointed with any of the many wondrous dishes that they serve. Everything is super first class. When I try new dishes here, I feel like one of those gourmet judges on the TV show Iron Chef because it turns into a discussion about the new dish.The curry has great aromas, the pasta is cooked al dente, and the dishes are all wonderfully prepared likes works of art. Typically, for a dinner for 2, I order about 3 appetizers, a dish per person, and a pasta dish to share. In other words, for 2 people, I order dinner for 3.I always have a great time here, and I wish there were more restaurants like this. This place is highly recommended. Be sure you call in to reserve a spot because it can get crowded on the weekends.

Cafe Hiro is everything that a great restaurant should be. The food is well thought out and beautifully presented. The service is attentive and friendly. The open kitchen and overall decor contribute to a great atmosphere. And the specials board seems to change regularly. I really enjoyed dining here and I will be back to taste more of the menu.Absolutely superb restaurant and I highly recommend it.

Cafe Hiro has delicious japanese fusion pasta such as sea urchin pasta, spinach garlic bacon pasta and also a marinara seafood pasta. The sesame ahi tuna is so good. Miso sea bass is perfect. Of course the Hamburg steak is tasty and juicy. Try the appetizers like fried calamari. Finish with a desert like the walnut creme brulee. You wont be disappointed dining here.

Cafe Hiro is one of my favorite restaurants in the Cerritos/Cypress area. A fusion of Japanese/Italian, there is a powerful sense of taste and design to all the dishes.Dishes will range you usually around $10-$25. My favorites are the Sea Urchin uni Spaghetti and Peking Pork. Most of the pasta dishes are superb as well.Although not always busy, its best to try and RSVP ahead of time. There is parking also available in a private lot. Service is attentive and fairly accommodating. The decor is fairly simple and although it wont win you over alone, there is both tables and a small bar area as well.

It really is whole-in-the-wall. Pretty small place with japanese chef who plays Polynesian music and italian/French food with good staff to serve customer. I like their simple yet very delicious salad and soup. I have gone there 3 times in past 2 weeks and people I have took over there really enjoyed the place. Liked beef tataki, scallop carpaccio, all the risotto especially uni n mushroom, Chilean sea bass, kurobuta pork cutlet, etc. Cant wait to go back.

Cafe hiro is my FAVORITE Japanese fusion restaurant and I have been here numerous times last few weeks. I had ordered individual plates before and ordered omakase for 2,4,and 6 people. I really believe 4+ omakase is best deal and lots of excellent food. I have not had any bad food or service. Its a small place but very popular place. There are so many excellent dishes its hard to explain and ladies are great servers. Their deserts are great and so is coffee. Thanks for being there

Love getting omekase with large party. My absolute favorite dish is the uni pasta. For dessert, get the bread pudding!! Its got fabulous flavor and texture, and the caramel sauce is not too sweet or sticky.

Cute Japanese fusion restaurant. I came here because I wanted uni pasta. Its not too bad just a little kick or something would have top it off. Maybe some masago or something.Also had the steamed bun appetizer but the meat is dry. Maybe it’s cooked that way.Had the banana something dessert too. That’s the only picture I took for the night since everyone else have posted the other food I ate.

Really cute hole in the wall joint and serves awesome japanese italian fusion cuisine :)The first time I came here (pre-Yelp), we didnt know what to order and got the Pork Cutlet and the Bacon Carbonara pasta. We only thought the food was alright and didnt bother coming back since the prices were steep.Now, 8 years later, I decided to make another visit to try and am so glad I did!We got-* Spinach and Uni Spaghetti - RICH, delicious, and SO decadent. Mix it well to get the maximum flavor. YUM.* Roasted Chilean Sea Bass with Mushroom Risotto - The sea bass was really tender, and the risotto was a little plain at first. But alternating bites between the Uni spaghetti and the risotto actually brought out and enhanced the mushroom flavor! Great combination if youre sharing!* Green Tea Blanc Manger - This dish looks like green jello at first but dig and youll find a very japanese dessert of green tea custard and red beans at the bottom. Very refreshing and has a deep matcha taste.* Panna Cotta - YUM. I love panna cotta so Im partial to it. Also very refreshing and not too sweet.The salad and soup that comes with the meal are small portions but very tasty!This location is in an unassuming plaza where CA Fish Grill and Carls Jr is.Parking can be kind of a bummer, but its worth it.

Food was well beyond expectations - inventive, creative, absolutely delicious, all in an informal atmosphere with great service. This is an unassuming place - you could easily pass by and be oblivious to the delicious, inventive food inside. The food is a fusion of Japan, Italy, American novel. You cannot go wrong here.

Two words. Uni Pasta. *drools*That is all you need to know!!! I wish there was more Uni but, what place actually gives you a lot of Uni lol. Noodles were al dente and sauce was delicious!I was not a fan of the mushroom risotto that everyone is raving about. Def not worth ordering. It was just bland mush to me. :( However, maybe Im just not a risotto person. Ive had it a few times at other places and still was not a fan. I will be back to try their curries though! I hear theyre great as well. :)

This restaurant would be a 5 star except the fact that when I went to use the restroom a rude worker barged in. He was very impatient and was yanking at the doorknob. I said busy(pretty loudly and multiple times) and someone is in here then the knocking stopped. I was only in there at most 1.5 minutes. Fortunately I just finished and washing my hand. He decides to use the key and walk in and says oh Im sorry. This is not normal and the workers should not be barging into single restrooms using keys while someone is in there. If I was more exposed then I wouldve immediately reported this.

Place is pretty packed. I was here right when it opened and got seated immediately. I do recommend making a reservation if you are planning to come here. Food is good. Must try their scallop capaccio.

Cafe Hiro is a reliable outstanding experience. Besides the delicious and eclectic menu, the service quality and attention to detail of the staff are top notch. I just wish I could come here more often.

Its not the service or venue or the menu selection or the libations, these are all fine. I just dont like the food. And at that price I better damn well like the food.

Very good food, much better than you would expect for a strip-mall eatery. you might spend 30 minutes shivering outside or just inside the doorway for this popular spot, but its worth it for some fantastic japanese american fare.

It is a Japanese restaurant specializing in light and Western food, so it has the disadvantage of taking a long time, but the hamburger steak and pork cutlet are of good quality. The cooking time is very slow, so when ordering, make sure to make an online reservation or order by phone and leave plenty of time.
