- MMariOrange County •1 review5.0Dined 1 day agoThe overall experience was extremely good. However I did place a reservation in advance in hopes to avoid the wait time but still had to wait. And then another wait on food as well. But because of the wait they offered complimentary ice cream.More infoBenihana - Newport Beach, CAPrice: Moderate• Japanese• Newport Beach•3.9

Our waiter was fantastic, with a thorough knowledge of food options, and ultimately selling us on the prefix meal. This was Valentine’s Day, so very special. The food here is phenomenal. We had numerous dishes, including Wagyu, steak, sashimi, sushi, oysters, and a great dessert. Highly recommend. More infoNobu NewportPrice: Very Expensive• Japanese• Newport Beach•4.7

- CChristopherVIPLos Angeles •5 reviews5.0Dined on Feb 8, 2025As always, dinner was unbelievable. Every member of my family chooses Sushi Roku for their special occasion and every single time, it is unbelievable. It is the most consistent experience we have at any restaurant. The food and service is incredible. We truly order the exact same thing every time which you would think would get old but it doesn't. We start with Miso soup and edamame. Then we have the Brussels Sprout chips and Shishito Peppers. We close out with a lot of orders of yellowtail which truly could count as dessert, albacore, spicy tuna Hanabi and a Tuna Jalapeno roll.More infoSushi Roku - Newport BeachPrice: Moderate• Sushi• Newport Beach•4.8
