Otosan Sushi - Newport Beach

Mid sushi for such expensive price, we ordered dumplings but the meat was sour and we also ordered chicken skewers and the meat ended up raw... at least the server was being nice about it and gave us a refund.

We were going to have lunch at one of the restaurants along Marina Pacifica but parking was horrible so we ended up going to 2nd PCH. We found this restaurant and decided to try it since there were seats immediately available and we were starving. We were a party of seven and we're all disappointed with this place. Their sushi were ridiculously expensive considering the size of servings, not to mention that the taste of every dish is nothing special. Even their ribeye bowl was comparable to those cheap Yoshinoya bowls. I could've enjoyed those boxed noodles at Trader Joe's much more. We paid $241 for a very disappointing lunch. Never coming back again.

Used to come here a lot and decided to get to go today. Order was wrong and crispy rice tasted stale and was hard to bite. Having a long drive, not worth going back here. Place is not the same.

I have been to this location about 10 times. Roughly once a month. Each time I have been greeted warmly; asked if I would like to sit in either their 10 table inside space or 10 table outdoor space and provided with napkins and menus promptly. On my last visit our server, David, provided his usual brand of attentive but respectful service. A+ I recommend the spicy tuna on crispy rice if you like that dish with everything on it . This is my go-to spot for that dish. I can also recommend the Red Poppy roll if you like your rolls with soy paper in lieu of nori. The tempura dishes are light and airy and all the nigiri dishes I have had have all been fresh and interesting. They are located just a few steps from the marina so don 't expect strip mall pricing. This adds to the vibe in my book. I can take a walk and grab ice cream after dinner! Go!

Sushi was super good and fresh and the blood Orange margarita was so refreshing just what I needed in a hot day. The customer service was amazing. Lauren was super nice and attentive, especially that I had my baby with me. I will be here again.
