Sushi Shibucho

I decided to finally try this place based on my neighbor's recommendation.
Boy was that a mistake.
I came here for lunch on a weekday. The place was pretty empty. I wasn't interested in the lunch cirashi now.
The chef recommended different kinds of sushi per his choice. Kind of like omakase.
I asked for the menu pricing of sushi but he declined to show me. After 10 pieces of sushi, the bill was $60. I felt like it was a little bit pricey compared to other sushi restaurants.
I quickly paid the damage. I mentioned to the chef that a neighbor of mine recommended this place. I shouldn't have said that. Then he starting blabbing for me to tell my friends to comes to this restaurant and post on Facebook.
I felt slightly uncomfortable dining here and won't be coming back.

I've been to this place many times and still enjoy it very much. The seasonal hotaruika nigiri is my first time trying and is so sweet and juicy.

best sushi place ever Orange County
good service
and quiet and peaceful restaurant ever.

Went back for my fiancés birthday dinner. We had about 16 pieces of omakase and loved every single bite. I made sure to call ahead of time so we could guarantee our seats at the bar. Glen had impeccable timing with serving each piece and made sure we got to eat the fish we wanted. So happy to be able to enjoy this gem.

Traditional Japanese sushi spot. Food items are omakase, nigiri and maki rolls, so if you're wanting fancy rolls with multiple sauces or appetizers this place won't be for you. Chef focuses on fish and serves it with a good rice ratio to balance flavors. Limited seating where bar seats 8 people and about 3-4 table tops behind the bar. Suggest making reservations to make sure you get a seat. It's one of the top places I'd go to for omakase.

I stumbled upon this place. Omg it's the best sushi spot I've tried in Orange County. I ordered the chirashi bowl, and there was no fish smell at all--the fish tasted incredibly fresh.The price is reasonable given the quality of the sushi. I highly recommend it!

When you first walk in Chef Glen greets you and ask you if you have reservations. Call a week in advance to make the reservation over the phone. There's only 8 seat at the bar. It's omakase or you can tell chef what you want. There is no food menu here.
Chef Glen took over his Father's restaurant, it's very cozy here. It's quiet, and visited by many Japanese locals.
I would come back here again.

Highly recommend this sushi restaurant they are a gem in Orange County. Impeccable service and the food quality is 5 star. Can't say enough and the chef is master chef!

I have been coming here for years and realized that Chef Glen is super talented, he has been doing this for many years, he grew up seeing and learning from his master sushi chef dad. The love for serving traditional, fresh sushi is inherently his birth right. So if you want traditional and really good sushi O encourage you to come and dine here. It is a really one man show. But a very talented one man show. Support local business!

We went there for lunch but not much choices but only two Chirashi or Sushi plate (11 pieces) both are for $35.50 (way over priced!!!).
No customer beside us but we decided not to dine-in as the they were not so friendly and prices were little bit too much to us for what we can get.

I wish the price were little bit more reasonable with more selections at least for lunch and they were more friendly. No wonder there were no customers beside us.

If I need to pay this much, I will go to Blue Fin or Nana San ($24.5 for Chirashi) both are in NB.

Food was amazing! Great place for omakase if you're in the mood. Glenn was super nice and gave us some choice fish for our dinner! Sitting at the bar is where it's at, watching Glenn make it in front of you is part of the experience too! Will be coming back to this place for a while and made the perfect place for an early Valentine's celebration!
