OK I hate to share this with everyone because I love how low-key the spot is. Best sushi in Newport Beach tucked away in a quiet little courtyard with great ambience on the patio. The service is always excellent. My husband who is not a sushi lover is happy to have dinner here, big fan of the Sakana roll, the Olivia roll, and the J roll

This review is long overdue! We ordered takeout from here a couple years ago and I was so impressed. The sushi was so fresh and delicious. Definitely for go the omakase because you get a wide variety of options and all of it is amazing.

The menu at Sakana is pretty limited but the offerings are quality and well thought out. My husband and I celebrated our anniversary there and thoroughly enjoyed the quality, presentation and of course the yummy food. Definitely recommend for lunch, dinner or a special occasion.

Cafe Sakana is a true Gem in Orange County! Tucked away in the back of a sleek-fashionable plaza.. this Restaurant nails it on all levels! Service, Food and Atmosphere. I can't say enough about this Family owned Restaurant. The late owner Jay truly put his heart and soul into the Restaurant and the family carries out his Legacy! Mayumi, Roy and the Staff are quite pleasant and I am so looking forward to coming back again soon. I am a big fan of the Nigiri! My favorites were the Sea Bream, Blue Crab, Peppered Tuna, and Salmon Pesto. The Jay Roll was also a must. Give it a try! You won't be disappointed.

This is my second time going. The first time it was great.... This time not so much. We came in 37 mins before they close. The rushed us so fast. Kept telling us hurry. Servive was awful as he asked us to pay early so he could go faster. The kicker was the prices were so much higher and they requested a huge tip! At least the food was ok!

Amazing sushi and reasonably priced. The servers are friendly and the restaurant has a lovely ambiance.
We went there for weekend lunch, it wasn't crowded at all which we loved. We had sushi, bento box, etc... Food was delicious! Definitely come back again!

The food and service were excellent. I had the vegetable tempura with the teriyaki chicken and both of these were cooked to perfection. It took awhile to find parking because there is limited spaces in the parking lot.

Cool hidden location on Westcliff Dr near my old business location was neat for me to see all the old stores I used to visit. Food was good prices are more than I prefer to pay but for the location being Newport Beach not to bad.
