Newport Fusion Sushi

This place is the best, their food is soo tasty, I just love it! Friendly staff, you should try Jacky Chan roll is my favorite plus salmon teriyaki …

Wow! As i spected food was great. weekend dinner with my friends at this place was worth it…

I got food poisoning there last night! Miserable.
Previously a favorite, but quality has really gone down since change of ownership. Never again.

Worst sushi and sashimi place in Irvine. The sashimi was like losing freshness. The sushi was more like glue with smells of fish which be storaged for a long time. And actually this is not a authentic Japanese restaurant, the waters and chefs are Korean.

We thought we can’t be surprised by sushi but this unassuming place surprised us. The salmon was super fresh (like butter), the spicy tuna served in a totally new way, even the salad dressing was unique (light yet full of flavor). The place is clean, the dishes are nice, pleasant ambient fits a wide range of people. If the menu selection doesn’t cut oir you just request anything and they will make it. Great value for your money.

My family and I were staying at the Marriott a couple of miles up the road and thought we’d try Fusion for dinner. The food was on the low side of average, with the prices a bit higher than they should have been for what you got.
Some sushi places have large portions that set them apart, others have great prices, this place just didn’t have anything to get us excited.
When we walked in there was a disclaimer posted stating that all «lobster» on the menu was actually crayfish and that all «crab» was actually imitation krab meat. The sign said they’re «sorry for any inconvenience» this poses. The scallops on one of our rolls were much colder than the rest of the sashimi, which strongly suggested that it was recently frozen — disappointing for a location three miles from the ocean. We were also disappointed that there was zero albacore on the menu!
It wasn’t terrible, but it just felt a bit janky, and for $ 80 for three people, that’s a disappointment. Try somewhere else instead!

You must be crazy to actually come here and eat. The food here is terrible. I’m saying this because I’ve been coming here for the past 15 years of my life because this place is the closest «Asian food» to my house when my mother is too lazy to cook. Notice I put quotes around Asian food… because this place is not served real Asian food…
When I was a kid, coming here was a nightmare. I would go to the restaurant and order the same exact thing. The menu option is not that diverse so there isn’t much variations between the foods. The food here is not that well cooked, and it is very expensive. I suggest you go to pavilions on the other side of this shopping plaza and go home to cook some food. You will be saving yourself your tastebuds and your money. There isn’t much to say besides that the food is expensive, and it is not worth your money.
Aside from the distaste for the food here, the staff is extremely wonderful and nice. Since my family and I went there so often they always knew what we want to order and how we like our food prepared, so service time is really fast whenever we go. Thank goodness I haven’t been back here since I left for college, so I’m not quite sure how staff has changed. As I recall this restaurant changed its name and menu two years before I left for college (and sadly, most of the staff too). Even though the menu and the restaurant name change, the food still taste the same: not very good.

This is my favorite five star sushi restaurant! They have the best quality food and staffs are really nice and friendly. Their lunch specials are also delicious and awesome. Also they give out free ice creams during lunch time after the meal!
Their sashimi and sushi is very fresh and tasty.
I recommend you to try their fresh rolls and one of my favorite is Baja yellowtail roll.
I strongly recommend this amazing sushi restaurant!

We went this place last week and tried Baja yellow tail sashimi and lettuce wrap. Both one very tasty and service was good.

After leaving my review for the sushi joint I’ve been supporting for years the owners send me an inbox comment to remove my Unilocal review, which violates Unilocal policy. DONT ASK SOMEONE TO DO A REVIEW REMOVAL.

The best rainbow roll I have ever had. I strongly recommend the fried soft shell crab as an appetizer.
