Gurume Sushi

Gurume has become a place we go to at least once a week, especially for lunch. Their lunch specials are a great deal, and most importantly, their food is very good. High quality at a great price. They are very accommodating for my son’s diet. Staff and service are always wonderful.

One of the best Japanese restaurants I've ever tried in OC. Quality and preparation of fish was on point, rice was perfect, also loved the blistered shishito peppers. Definitely coming back!

We tried $100 Omakase. We really enjoyed the chef's interpretation. I recommend eating them as they are served to you (minimize additional wasabi & soy sauce). Photos show how each dish is served. I skipped the photo of dessert for your own surprise 🙄

Got there right when it opened on a weekday lunch and there was no wait, but the restaurant was about 75% full by the time it was around 12. I got the sashimi and sushi lunch special for $40. The sashimi pieces were big and the whole plate was a decent size that I wasn't able to finish. The salmon tasted a little fishy to me, but the other pieces were fine. The tempura I thought was decent as well, and their tempura sauce was good. The mixed tempura serving side was bigger than expected so that was a nice surprise. My set came with miso soup and a small salad and they were fine, just tasted like those instant miso soups and bagged salad with some dressing. The price I thought was fair and the serving size is decent. I just wish the quality was better. I would say that this place has a nice ambiance and looks fancy, but the sushi itself is of average quality.

Had a wonderful meal at Gurume Sushi! The food was delicious, with a great variety of options. The service was friendly and attentive. Excellent value for the price – highly recommend for anyone craving quality sushi!

Average sushi at a reasonable price point. You get what you pay for

I had the 100 dollar Omakase and had a really mixed experience. I do not think Uni and Caviar should go with every dish and it makes every dish taste the same. The cutting of the sushi also left a lot to be desired. While the fish quality was generally good, I’d rather pay less and just have a regular sashimi without all the extra.

This place is amazing. I was looking for a special Japanese restaurant to celebrate my husband's birthday, and wow this was it! The food was high quality and still within an affordable range. My husband got the sushi omakase for $50, and he was very happy with the selections. The cuts were thick and juicy. I ordered the pork belly bento (about $30); when my food arrived, I didn't expect it to come with all of the delicious side dishes in tiny bowls, like a traditional Japanese meal. Everything was delicious, service was on point, and I would definitely come back for special occasions.
