Hamamori Restaurant and Sushi Bar

Among the freshest and most delicious sushi rolls and hand rolls I've enjoyed in Orange County.

Best sushi in OC so far

One of the best sushi restaurants in my opinion. Everything is always fresh and delicious. The establishment is like a Michelin starred restaurant.

It was my first time visiting the mall (and the state!), and needless to say, I was 1000% satisfied with my choice to eat here. The food was great. I ordered the VIP sushi, and all of the sushi are very, very fresh. The hamamori shooter was interesting. The pork belly was amazing. It was my favorite, like, I literally closed my eyes to absorb the taste when I ate it because it was that good. Besides the food, the most memorable thing I experienced while eating here was the service. The server recommended pork belly to me, but I was afraid I couldn't finish it because I came here alone. Then she said that she could cut it in half, as in, there should be 6 pork bellies, but she could serve just 3 for half the price. I really appreciated that. And as I said before, the pork belly was, indeed, amazing. I was seated in the high table part, in front of the chef, so I could see them preparing the sushi. The chefs were so nice. They prepared the food and served them directly to me. I had some nice chat with one of the older chefs. He also made sure that I enjoyed the dishes and hinted the waiters to take my plates once I finished. Overall, it was such a wholesome dining experience. Eating alone in a new place is scary and intimidating sometimes, but here, they treated me very well and made sure that I got the best food and service TL;DR: Amazing food, amazing service, much recommended

It was very good and the overall service was great. It was a bit awkward because I did not get my main dish until my dining partner was almost done with her main course. Will not keep me from returning but I hope it is not like this every time I visit. Had the yuzu sorbet. It was wonderful Parking: Take the elevator to the third level.

This restaurant is my recent favorite in OC area. Haven’t tried the omakase yet but tried most sashimi pieces and a few other item on the menu. Every piece is yummy and melting as you put it in your mouth. The service is a little bit slow but believe me it worth the wait.
