The colors on the plates jump out…you taste the freshness from the start:). The “Three Amigos” cut roll is a blend of taste that is off the charts, with a nice subtle spicy element to balance it all. Prices are on point, allowing for you to get good value without sacrificing quality.A smaller operation that packs a huge punch of quality is how I would sum up the experience with Ginza Sushi. All the staff is incredibly friendly and accommodating. Highly recommend this becoming your local Sushi place in the area.

This little local spot has become our favorite regular sushi spot. Very nice staff. Rolls always fresh. We always order the Candy Roll. Its riceless, fresh, little crunch, delicious!

We’ve been going here for years. Great food, great location. The oysters my husband ordered looked amazing! I don’t eat oysters but he sure loved them.

We came for lunch. They open at noon. Staff was friendly. We ordered a California roll, a black dragon roll, a new York roll, a 911 roll and a surf and turf roll. All the rolls were good and decent sized. The surf and turf has this sour sauce that compliments the meat well. The main differences between the new York roll and the surf and turf roll was that the new York roll had a crisper bite of meat on the roll. The surf and turf meat was more tender and the sauce on the surf and turf was more sour/citrus. The garlic edamame was amazing!

My local spot for sushi, I come here at least once a month. I always order the sour patch kid roll it is just loaded with fish, I enjoy how the lemon and jalapeno on top work together. You get that zing and the the jalapeno brings it back down and mellows it out with a little heat. Also their garlic edamame is fantastic.

This place is wonderful. My favorite rolls around. This chef owned a place in Costa Mesa and when I lived there I would frequently eat there, at least once a week. Now I moved to Fullerton and holy smokes, he sold the Costa Mesa location and Id now right down the street from me again. I feel very lucky! My family and I eat in or do take out from Ginza all the time, we love this place.

THIS PLACE IS GREAT...I would go as far as saying the BEST in Fullerton! The staff is friendly, the sushi is AMAZING and the prices are a steal. I love the regular/family type atmosphere. They are attentive and quick. I LOVE THIS PLACE. If you havent tried it, go for it..you will not be disappointed.

Great sushi place if youre ever in North County. Fish always seems super fresh and the menu is quite vast. I prefer sushi and sashimi as opposed to rolls, but they have some pretty damn good rolls. Try the soft shell crab roll. Sushi chefs are friendly and easy to get along with, as are the waitresses. Great selection of Japanese beers and saki. Can get pretty busy on Thursday, Friday and Saturday evenings

This is a review outside of the taste of the food. I applied here years ago, the owner denied me and said (exact words) Were not looking for white people. We work long hours and want people willing to do that. We prefer Mexicans over white people.

Good sushi. My favorite was the dream roll. There was nothing over the top amazing about this place to deserve 5 stars. The service was pleasant and we did not have to wait too long for our rolls.There was a horrible fish odor upon entering the restaurant. It was so off putting that the waitress had to light an incense. This in turn filled the restaurant with scented smoke and fish odor. Mmmm! Yummy! She had to open the door to defuse the smell and smoke.

This restaurant is the closest sushi restaurant to my apartment. I feel very lucky, because it is also the best sushi in this part of Orange County. I have ordered at least twenty different rolls from a large and varied menu and have never been disappointed. The fish is always super fresh and the service is wonderful. If you read any negative reviews, check the date, because the owner changed a couple of years ago and the current ownership is tops in my book!

The quality of sushi here is legit. Menu selection is just the right amount. I have never felt overwhelmed with too many choices here. This is also the first place that I have been to that has nailed the balance of flavors in the sauces used in some rolls. Try the butterfly for a perfect bite size selection of freshness.

I love this place, special rolls are unlike other sushi joints Ive visited. Sometimes theyre a little slow getting your food to you but they are constantly updating you on when it will get to you, they check in on you. I recommend getting an appetizer if youre hungry hungry and need food asap but its worth the wait trust.

Today we were kind of grossed out. First, the positives. The service was wonderful. The taste was terrible though. The edamame had no taste at all. The tempura had non-cooked flour on it, and the sushi rice didnt taste that fresh. A bit surprised based on the reviews!

Review №17

2019-09-16 05:28:38

First time visiting Ginza. Very simple decor. The service was very good but seemed a little impatient. Sushi was very good and the beer was ice cold. Summary, it wasnt the best sushi experience, but when I got the bill... I was pleasantly surprised. I will be going back for a good, casual sushi dinner. Oh, one last thing.... The grilled garlic edamame was to die for. I highly recommend it!!!

We have come to Ginza a handful of times and have hand a great time every visit. The fish was very fresh in all the roles and sashimi we had. They have good Udon and appatizers as wells. Service is always perfect, just the right amount of visits to the table without feeling like they are hovering. We will come again many times.

Good crunch roll, good shrimp tempura. Was happy to find a decent sushi place nearby. Decent prices. Nice service. They did forget our miso soup but quickly rectified that when I reminded them of that. Will be a go to from now on when Im craving sushi.

Aside from being one of the few sushi places that was open on New Years Day, the service and quality of sushi provided at Ginza were exactly what I had hoped for. We were sat quickly at the sushi bar and we were well taken care of. The food was delicious and the portions were fair for the price.

2019-07-07 14:25:54

Wow this tiny whole in the wall was fabulous. Sushi rolls were fresh and they dont skimp. Service was good but could not get drink refills. There was a busy lunch time crowd, and tables were dirty but they clean fast for the second wave for customers.

Went to late lunch/early dinner (Happy Hour Time) with my wife.Location is little dangerous cause it is located on the corner of a big plaza where cars come in. Be very careful when crossing from parking area!!!Food Quality was very fresh and they did not serve a lot of rice when ordering sushi or rolls. I am giving this place 4 stars cause this is not AYCE place. Out of all the items we ordered...we agreed that the best one was original crunchy roll (Happy Hour price $8.95). LOL!Service: Was good and our waitress was attentive.We will come back...for more Crunchy Rolls. LOL!!!

This is an incredible place. Fish is top grade and we ordered about 6 difference dishes and each were great. Very creative in their dishes and the aromas of each dish was surprising. Couples try the Butterfly...its pretty and great!

Good Sushi, the Dream Roll lives up to its name. Staff is friendly. Couple cons about the place which caused the 3 star review: 1.Im not a fan of the seating arrangements. 2. Received a dirty plate with a bunch of rice stuck to the bottom of it at the beginning. 3. I watched as a sushi chef right at the counter used his teeth to remove the protective sealant cap from a new large bottle of soy sauce. (which I laughed about). However the sushi was very good and I will be giving the place another try.

The California Roll is my go to order and every time I get it, it’s amazing. Definitely worth a try for good prices and good food! Plus the people are so kind and the sushi is made fresh in front of you!

Ive been going to Ginza Sushi since 2013... The quality had been consistently good throughout the years... Fresh Sushi served all the time with a great selection from the menu... 2 days ago I went and had their Toro Sashimi again and as usual, it was as creamy as you can imagine Toro tuna to be... Mr. Nipon is a real craftsman and the serving looked just as yummy as it tastes... Ive tried many Sushi restaurants before but Ginza is a cut above the rest... My little daughter is a real Sushi fan and she doesnt want to go anywhere else but Ginza... If you want really really great Sushi or Sashimi, head towards Ginza... The staff has their heart in it and will go out of their way to make sure that you get the best experience... The prices are so very reasonable f and the quality is impeccable... I recommend it to anyone who enjoys it...

If you like inconsistent food and consistently bad service then go here. I have given them my last chance, I wont go back for more rubbery nori and sometimes spicy spicy yellowtail roll and flat out rude, poor service. Its a bummer too because this place is within walking distance to my house and we love sushi.

Review №32

2019-05-27 02:49:46

Ive had some good and bad sushi in my life trying different places. This place, albeit in a strip mall plaza, is one of the best Ive had for sashimi. The sashimi literally melted in our mouths; wasnt dry or mushy, and had a very fresh and clean taste. The spicy garlic edamame is superb and the mussels my wife had were one of the best shes had in SoCal per her claims.Well be back (even though we live 20 miles away).

Food was great, service was so slow and it was the end of the night so it wasnt that busy either. By the time the server brought out more ginger that we had asked for, we were already done with our meal and my drink never got refilled either.

2015-10-30 22:35:11

Dont pay attention to the old reviews. There is a new owner and this place is awesome again. We go a couple times a month and its always delicious. The staff is friendly and prompt and the owner honestly cares about the customers and the food quality.

Genuinely enjoy my experiences here. Waitresses are always very fun and the rolls are exeptional everytime. I recommend the New York rolls and if youre looking for an off the menu item, ask them to describe the Max Roll.

I took my girlfriend here for dinner and we both loved it!Food: The food was delicious! We ordered a few items.Edamame (Garlic Spicy) - It was very delicious! The roasted garlic was nice and crispy. The Japanese chilis were just spicy enough without making the dish overpowering. One order of this was just not enough!Crazy Eel (9pc Roll)- Spicy tuna, avocado, cream cheese topped with BBQ eel, spicy eel sauce. THIS ROLL WAS THE BOMB! The BBQ eel was so tender that it melts in your mouth! This totally had the umami factor to it :) My girlfriend and I could have easily eaten one roll each.K-1 (9pc Roll) - Spicy tuna, avocado, cilantro topped with albacore, special ponzu sauce. The roll was good. However, I would have preferred it without the cilantro. I really really dislike cilantro. LOL!Lollipop (6 pc Roll) - Tuna, salmon, yellowtail, albacore, avocado wrapped with cucumber creamy & hot sauce. This was a very refreshing roll to eat. The fish was fresh. The cucumber was the refreshing part of the roll. The roll was on a toothpick henceforth it was called the lollipop roll.Service: The waitress was attentive and nice. We were seated quickly when we arrived. The sushi chef even came around to greet us and make sure everything was satisfactory.Overall, the place was clean and the service was outstanding. The food was AMAZING!
