Fat Fish Sushi - Lake Forest

This restaurant is fantastic! The owners are incredibly friendly, and the sushi is exceptionally fresh and tasty. I highly recommend it—100 out of 10! The place is kept very clean, and the value for the price is excellent. Food rating: 5/5.

I ordered the chicken teriyaki dinner, and unfortunately, the meat was old and dry, although some pieces were fresher. It included both dark and white meat, which was disappointing. On a positive note, the rice was good, but the side salad came in a small compartment and, since it was placed alongside the hot food, it ended up getting warm. The portion of teriyaki sauce was quite small as well. I’m willing to give them another chance to serve fresh chicken. Update: I was shocked by how unfriendly the staff was. When I suggested trying a different dish, they were only interested in issuing a refund. They even charged me $5 for that tiny salad! The cans of Coke were $2 each, which added up to $10 overall. They didn’t apologise or ask if I would return. I’m heading next door to E Mans restaurant instead.

I have been coming to this place for about three and a half years now, it is my absolute favorite for when I crave sushi or anything fish related. I love eating raw or cooked fish (I could eat it every day , and to me this place has the freshest fish I have ever consumed. Literally every two weeks I track my paycheck so I know if I have enough to splurge on their all you can eat (which I have to get every time, it's so worth it with all the things I can eat, literally in HEAVEN when it's fat fish night . I could go on and on about how amazing and tasty their food is, but I also have to give a shout-out to the staff there. They are one of the kindest, chill, and welcoming people I have ever met in a restaurant environment. They are so sweet, they even bring us little sides of avocado and rice for my 8 month old to try! Anytime I have family or friends coming from out of town, I always make them come here to this special place!Some things to know if you were thinking of AYCE:1. Everyone has to agree to AYCE (this is to avoid someone mooching off a person who ordered AYCE but they didn’t, which happens OFTEN in other places 2. They will require a reservation to book AYCE (helps them prep, you order in waves of 3 so they try to prep each wave for your table at the same time .I’ve found that other establishments have started or have already begun to pick up these requirements for AYCE to make it a smooth and sincere experience for both customers and restaurants. Just some helpful advice for fellow sushi lovers!

Small hidden gem of a restaurant. The sushi was delicious. You must try the jalapeno bang appetizer. The rolls are huge. They have an AYCE option for $38. Well worth it!Food: 5/5
