Best Sushi Restaurants in Ladera Ranch

Love giving a well deserved positive review! Everything we had was perfectly cooked and delicious. The sushi was fresh, shrimp cocktail was perfectly cooked and crunched with each bite and the crab cakes were crunchy and filled with crab. The main course did not disappoint the ahi salad had a nice portion of ahi and a well blended salad mix, the fried shrimp was perfectly cooked, crispy with no oily residue and the lobster roll had mounds of lobster in a warm bun with ample butter, it was delicious. The crème brûlée was the best crème brûlée I’ve had in years. Thank you for a perfect meal! Well done!

We loved the food. We mostly ordered from the happy hour menu. There were lots of options and the food was great!

I will start by saying I was worried the food would not live up to my expectations, however that was not a problem at all. Some of the freshest and best executed dishes I have had. The prices add up quick, but once we were done with the meal it was worth every penny. Favorite dishes included: yellowtail jalapeño, chilean sea bass, ribeye with truffle butter and the mango kakigori shaved iced is a must. The tuna tacos were small but good as well. Server was very attentive without being pushy which was appreciated since we were there closing on a Sunday night. Will definitely visit again when in the Newport area.

The restaurant is so cool but seating is uncomfortable - stools with no backs - small space - tight - the food is delicious but pricey.

Our anniversary celebration at Rebel Omakase was an experience we will treasure. From the moment we stepped in, we were enveloped by an ambiance that perfectly blended refined elegance with Japanese simplicity, setting the stage for an unforgettable evening. Each course was a masterpiece—carefully curated, exquisitely plated, and layered with flavors that were both deeply traditional and surprisingly inventive. The precision in preparation was evident, showcasing the chef's expertise and commitment to perfection. The service was impeccable. The staff was attentive but never intrusive, anticipating every need with grace and professionalism. Each dish was presented with a thoughtful explanation, enhancing our appreciation of the ingredients and their seasonal significance. Rebel is truly a destination for those who understand and value the artistry behind Japanese cuisine. It’s a place where every detail is honed to perfection, leaving you with an experience that feels both rare and profoundly satisfying. Highly recommended to anyone who values culinary artistry at its finest.
