Quick Summary
Excellent customer service and very solid and creative omakase. Disappointed that I wasn't able to make it for their foie gras and A5 wagyu, but still a great experience, nonetheless. Reservations are a must, as there is very limited seating.
Food- 5 stars
I commend Ikko for adding pl
My first omakase in OC!
Entrance is a simple, wooden door. It's very low key and feels like a hidden room. Counter seats 8-10?? Very clean and sanitary interior. The lighting of the space highlights the Master in the room on stage. His space was organized; nothing unused was left on the table top,
My go to spot when I'm in the Costa Mesa area. Sushi is always on point. Highly recommend if you love sushi. Best thing about IKKO is that there is NO American Rolls. Will try the Omakase option next time.
Fantastic omakase, if you like trying different types of Japanese cuisine, in addition to sushi. Great service, too.
Got the omakase. The reason why I made it 4/5 its because I though their starter plate is a little too salty. However, their fish selections were very fresh and the rice were well made with the perfect amount of vinegar, soy sauce and wasabi. I like how they each plate were a selection of fishes wit
im a huge fan of omakase and honestly havent really had the chance to enjoy omakase since covid. ikko was the perfect place to remind me of how much i missed omakase. it was at an amazing price point and came with several starters, nigiris with fish from japan, and dessert! every dish was super impr
Absolutely amazing ambience, customer service, and above all else, brilliant fish. If you're in the area and wanting some good sashimi and/or sushi, this is the place to be.
I can post pics all day of the amazing sushi here but you have to experience it in person.
Top notch service, amazing quality of food. Worth every penny in my opinion - you can't get that quality fish and ingredients anywhere.
Go for a celebration, get take out and eat IMMEDIATELY in the car. Whatev
A great lunch omakase experience! It was difficult to find an omakase spot open during lunchtime (most open at 5) so I am glad we found Ikko. To start, this place was awarded a Michelin star in 2018 so that should tell you something. The waiter was attentive and the restaurant was mostly empty when
Wow the sushi take out they have during the quarantine is amazing. A+ quality def will come back.
Just had Omakase there today. Highly recommend if it’s your first time as they serve 1 piece per fish type so you get to taste different types. The appetizer was ok; but once they serve the sushi it’s very interesting and different so it’s worth it. For uni sushi it’s a whole big uni on top of a tin
Best sushi restaurant in this area: selection of fresh fish is amazing. I am a Japanese, and I highly recommend this small but comfortable restaurant. Must also mentioned is an excellent selection of good sakes.
I live in Phoenix, AZ, and I rather come here to eat sushi than any other restraints
This is very interesting restaurant, won't notice it unless you know about it. Their food is amazingly good and fresh, one of the best sushi I've had, but the size is very small, we ordered so many but I didn't leave satisfied. and the service is a little slow between the plates so the whole time I
This was a great experience for me. A friend took me here and he grew up with one of the sushi chefs. My Favorite Sushi dinner yet. We tried so many items. Id come back for sure. Thank you for a great dinner evening.
OMG... This place is a BOMB. We had smaller Omacase and it was fricken awesome. I guess sorts of menu changes every time but very similar dishes. When we are about to walk in we saw "No American sushi roles here" sign, then I knew this place was genuine. Unlikely other sushi places, if you cam hand
This place is a real gem. During lunch, you can order most a la carte items in the dinner menu. The fish is really fresh and they have daily specials on the chalk board. The ambience is cozy, chic, and romantic. Perfect location for a date or a client meeting. Expansive sake selection too.
I was looking for a sushi joint on the Michelin guide and found Ikko in Costa Mesa. I saw that they don’t serve rolls and quickly found that the reason behind it was to serve authentic Japanese sushi. Most places that I had gone to have soy sauce on the table, fortunately Ikko’s sushi is pre-seasone
Traditional sushi at a very very good price for the quality you are getting. One of the only places I've ever found real wasabi at and goes great with every nigiri you order. I recommend the sweet lip and the Miyazaki Wagyu nigiri.
Fun foodie experience!! The sushi is fresh and perfectly seasoned! Tamago is amazing! Carpaccios are great! Japanese green tea beer is smooth! Friendly & helpful service :)
