Sushi Kizuna 22912 Pacific Park Drive, Aliso Viejo, CA 92656

"To be honest, I hadn't expected that it was such a great restaurant before actually dining here. It was way above my expectation. I ate sashimi lunch, which was $22, excluding tax. Miso soup which was served first immediately moved me. The rice was excellent, which is equivalent to top quality one that I ate in Japan. There were about 12 pieces of sashimi, which were superb. The clerks were very generous and friendly. Overall, it's 100 out of 5 lol $22, which is 3300 yen, seemed expensive to me first. It's not actually. I could accept it even if this were at the same price in Japan! Considering how expensive everything is around here, it's such a great deal."

"Nice small restaurant. Chilled sake is smooth. Chef's Premium sushi with salad and miso soup is very nice. Sushi meat is very fresh. Softshell crab is also very fresh, no fishy smell at all. Service is very nice and finished dishes were removed very quickly."

"They are welcoming and have attention to detail! The portions were generous and excellent quality! They were the tastiest rolls I have ever had! I had the double shrimp roll and the. Sashimi cucumber special. It was a wonderful experience! I enjoyed a fabulous meal and evening! Thank you!"

"We stopped in because it had an overall 5 star rating. This is not a 5 star spot. While the Orion (beer) took us back to reminiscing of our time spent in Japan and the sushi was fresh tasting, it was overpriced for the poor quality rolling. We ordered 5 rolls, miso and soba. The rolls had plenty of fish and vegetables, but they were all rolled loosely and falling apart. There was no way to pick them up properly and our time spent together was effected as we were frustrated over the struggle. The soba was also extremely bland, but that could’ve been regional. We will continue our search for a go-to sushi spot."
