Comments: Great Japanese food.  Yes, they have sushi and it is really good.  But what sets this chain apart is their menu.  You will definitely find something that interests you.  The hard part is finding ONE thing that you can decide on.

My suggestion is to know what you want before going in.  Beef, chicken, fish, tempura, etc...  Then concentrate on the combos that include your main entree item.  They have combos with sushi, tempura, sashimi (that's sushi without the rice), meat with meat, fish with meat, and everything with everything.  I think their combo numbering scheme looks more like an IRS Excel spreadsheet, but its worth it!

For groups, they offer a variety of "boats"  Yes, real wooden boats with all hands on deck.  Enough to feed a whole army. 

Don't forget to finish off the meal with a scoop of green tea ice cream (Yumm!)

Our favorites are the set combos with fish and teriyaki chicken or beef.  We then add a couple sides of yellow tail (hamachi) sushi,  teriyaki baked eel (anago) and spicy tuna hand rolls.  All meals come with salad, soup and dessert.  Kid friendly environment.

 

Tips & Suggestions: Casual dining and they take credit cards. Take-out is available.  DO NOT get there at 6 or 7pm and expect to get seated in less than 1-2 hours.  Get there when they open (around 5pm) and be the first ones through the door, that's your only guarantee of eating on time.   They have multiple location in the area, including Tustin & San Gabriel.  
Maps & Directions: Located west of the Puente Hills Mall in the Ranch 99 parking lot.
