Renaissance Newport Beach Hotel in Newport Beach

Super restaurant!! The sushi was amazing and so was the atmosphere. It is very crowded also on week days. Our waitress has been very kind and the service has been quick enough.
Loved their rolls and also the edamame. Mochi ice cream was just ok but overall a very pleasant experience. Not very cheap but worth it.

Service at the bar was alright between 6 and 8pm. I had to order my drink 3 times over the course of 30 minutes before I finally got my drink. Great food.

The ambiance and decor is stellar, from the walkway over water to the giant Buddha, I'm envious of the watering bamboo plant framed above the sushi bar.

I've come here for business meeting lunches, happy hour, but most often I'm realizing I actually go by myself some Friday's after work. Perhaps because it's 5 minutes form home and work, always top notch, but also it's not the friendliest spot. Running high pressure sales rooms, sometimes I like to just sit in peace and clear my head not have people bothering me. If my voice is soar from pitching, I don't want to make inane conversation with the chef and make it worse.

I would not intentionally disregard social conventions and niceties, in the interest of civility if the situation were to merit it I would give up my silent peace. The chefs I have are generally for whatever reason completely unconcerned, perhaps because of the late hours I am seeing them at the beginning of their longest hardest shift. There is a certain 'houselights are up' sort of feeling like the people are primarily there to setup for the main event, and are OK with letting you eat during rehearsals. Just a theory, but fortunately whatever the circumstance, the consequence is that I don't feel the pressure I might at more familiar spots. It's an odd compliment to be sure, but everything has it's place and silence is not easy to find in a restaurant in the financial district.

The appetizers are top 5 in the city, and so is the sushi. It's probably expensive but happy hour must be good as I don't recall after having been dozens of times. They often have bluefin which is a plus, and their sake selection is impressive, spanning a wide range of prices and styles, something great in every tier.

Ten is is among my favorite Orange County sushi spots. Above all, it is consistent. The last piece of salmon I had was almost indistinguishable in every way from my first here.

The club is ridiculous. I would go kicking and screaming and then still sneak away if people were to drag me here. Bottle service for $1000 guarantees well, you pick the word-I'm not going to say it...

Always great food and service from Sushi Dave. Knows exactly what I want. No menus needed. The best sushi in Orange County.

Great food. Great prices on Mondays with 50 percent off. And Emi, our waitress was friendly and for our food out really quick!
