Minato is a great place to go enjoy sushi. Their all you can eat special is a bargain. Always good fresh sushi. James and his staff are awesome. Thanks.

Meh. The sushi is good, not great. Other dishes were, again, good. Presentation was on point. The bento boxes looked really good and what I tried from them was good. They did run out of rice and stated it would be a half hour before more would be ready right as we were seated; which I thought was odd for a sushi joint. We did have a very large party but it was an hour and a half before everyone had their food in front of them; likely due to running out of rice. Servers are good and somewhat attentive but they could use a bit of help in distinguishing their priorities.I would go again and would easily have given more stars if I were basing it solely on the food.

Excellent Service. However they do have capacity restraints and you may asked to wait 20-45 min to be seated. The buy 2 get 1 free roll option may be better value then the all you can eat. Fish quality is great.

My first visit. I arrived at lunch in time for their Lunchbox Special 11:30-2:30, and ordered a pot of jasmine tea. Delicious and waiter was great.

Best Sushi on the planet in my opinion. The owner James is awesome and so is the rest of the staff been going here for at least 12 years and I am never disappointed in the service or prices. I do all you can eat.

Minato is always a stop when I'm in southern Cali. The all you can eat sushi is decently priced and has a great variety. The rolls are always well made and delicious. The staff is also super pleasant! If you are a fan of sushi minato is definitely the place to stop!

Fantastic all you can eat sushi, and authentic Sake selection for the curious alcohol enthusiast. Very filling rolls and countless options for any kind of Sushi preference!Pleasant service and amazing atmosphere, very open and accessible for such a small property!In my opinion this place is definitely worth every dollar they charge!

Really great value. Most items I ordered, I loved, though I wasn't a huge fan of everything. That said, nothing was BAD, but just unimpressive at times. Service was spectacular. Never had to ask for water, the wait wasn't bad at all at the bar. I will definitely be back, but with a better idea of what's great here. I highly recommend the seared salmon - especially for those who are reluctant to try the raw stuff.

Minatos has been my main sushi grub for over a year now. Never fails to impress me. Great sushi rolls. I always take advantage of the buy 2 get 1 roll free deal.

Our go-to place since they opened. Never disappoints. Great and authentic Japanese. Everything about this place resolves my homesickness for Japan and food we so enjoy. Service very quietly efficient. Cucumber slush is-delish!!

While I wouldn't consider this the finest sushi restaurant in Orange County, it is my favorite regular spot. The prices are great, the service is normally good, and the atmosphere is cool. If you're on a budget, I definitely recommend this place.

Went on a Saturday evening and the service was really slow. We waited some time to be seated and then waited even longer for our food to come out. Our server did not really seem to be on top of it. He seemed unorganized and was not very courteous. We got the all you can eat. They had some good rolls, so I won't complain about the sushi. Two of the sushi chefs were having drinks with customers and making us laugh so that was a plus.

Take “all-you-can-it” for $27.99 and eat :))). My favorite was tuna tataki and salmon. Quail eggs were good, as well as oysters and fresh water eel. As of uni - I didn’t like it here.

Large fish to rice ratio on the nigiri pieces. The octopus and salmon tasted very fresh. This sushi restaurant has a wonderful sake selection and a large All You Can Eat menu. For adventurous eaters I would highly recommend trying uni or the uni quail egg shooter! The staff was efficient and friendly. :) Made my dining experience quite enjoyable.

Food came out super good and their buy 2 get 1 roll is a great deal. I recommend their salmon rolls and sparkling sake. I'll definitely come back to try the all you can eat. Service is a hit or miss, our server was great but the person serving the table next to us was super loud telling her entire life to the customers, kinda awkward.

Top Sushi in the area. They’ve been here for 16 strong years! That’s saying a lot because this shopping center is high turnover! The best sushi in the area and the owner James is super cool.

We came to this place because we wanted to try their Tataki Albacore. The sushi was good for the most part but the Tataki could be better. It needs more sauce.Overall, the sushi was good but it wasn't amazing.

I love this place. Every other sushi place I've ever been to gets compared to this. And the X-Men role still lives in my head as a long time favorite, and is a must have whenever I'm in town.
