My friend and I decided to stop by here on a whim since we were craving some type of sashimi. We both hadn't had Korean sashimi before, so we wanted to compare how it was to Japanese sashimi. We decided to go with the Assorted Sashimi Platter. It came with toro, salmon, tuna, yellowtail, halibut, and octopus. And wow! That thing was massive for just the two of us. It was definitely a good portion for 3-4 people. The combo itself came with a phletora of banchan. The first set of banchan had items like: cold cabbage soup, corn cheese, steamed egg, kimchi, raw marinated shrimp, live octopus, raw oysters, miso soup, and abalone congee. We were then given our sashimi platter. The fish was pretty fresh, and the slices were nice and thick. We made mini handrolls without rice, and just used the kimchi. I feel like we should've asked for rice since the pieces were thick, but we didn't want to make ourselves prematurely full. Our favorites were the toro, octopus, and the yellowtail. It was a very different experience since we were given sesame oil, but we were also given soy sauce and wasabi too. We ended up ordering the uni pasta, which is made out of uni paste, cooked uni, and udon. It was definitely tasty and different than most places that we've tried before. We didn't know there was a second set of banchan coming our way, which included items like: spicy few stew, fish tacos, takoyaki, tonkatsu, sardines, tteokbokki, potato pancake, mackerel, tempura, and a crunch roll. It was so much food! We ended up having to pack some food to go. More than enough with the portions - definitely family style type servings. Highly suggest coming with an appeite and with more than 2 people. There were tanks of fresh seafood, and an ample amount of seating. The service was quick. The parking was free in the plaza. We definitely enjoyed...
Read moreI was feeling adventurous and decided to check out Kuni Sashimi House, a Korean and Japanese fusion restaurant in Buena Park. The food was fresh, delicious, and generous. I ordered the tacos, which were actually sashimi wrapped in seaweed with various toppings. They were amazing and flavorful, and came in a metal taco holder that made me feel like a cowboy. The sashimi was very fresh and tender, and the sauces were spicy and tangy. I also tried some of their other dishes, such as the live octopus, the oysters, and the uni pasta. They were all very good and satisfying, but not as good as the tacos.
The place was very cozy and nice, with a farmhouse chic decor and windows that let in natural light. The service was friendly and attentive, and they checked on us frequently. They also brought us many side dishes that came with the sashimi combo, such as soup, salad, rice, kimchi, and more. They were all tasty and complemented the main dishes well, but not as well as the tacos.
I would highly recommend Kuni Sashimi House to anyone who loves sashimi or wants to try something different and creative. They have a variety of dishes to choose from, ranging from traditional to fusion. They also have breakfast, brunch, bakery, and catering options. They source their ingredients from local farms and their own farm in Temecula, which makes their food fresh and organic. Kuni Sashimi House is a hidden gem that delivers quality and taste,...
