" This place is a true hidden gem! I stumbled upon Kappo Sui during a trip to Costa Mesa, and I'm so glad I did. The omakase was out of this world! Each piece of sushi was renowned for its freshness and attention to detail. The ambiance is simple but charming, and it feels like a genuine family-owned establishment. If you're in the area, you need to experience this place for yourself! " (*Curated Review*)

" Kappo Sui is a great spot for anyone who loves traditional Japanese fare! The ambiance transports you, and the food is so well-prepared. I highly recommend ordering their sashimi platter. It was fresh and had substantial variety. The service was prompt, making my experience even better. Definitely recommend! " (*Curated Review*)

" Had high hopes for Kappo Sui but was a bit let down. My yakitori was good, but the sushi was surprisingly underwhelming. The service was polite, but it could have been faster. I could also see that the place is quite popular among Japanese patrons, indicating some level of authenticity at least. I hope my next visit will be better. " (*Curated Review*)

" Kappo Sui has its charm in an unassuming way. Loved the simple yet cozy ambiance of the place. The kushiyaki was delightful and savory, alongside their robust miso soup. The scale of the menu left me wanting to try more. I appreciate how authentic it feels, being frequented by many Japanese patrons. " (*Curated Review*)

" If you're after traditional Japanese comfort meal, look no further. I’ve been to many places and Kappo Sui makes me feel right at home. Their udon was packed with umami, and every bite felt authentic. The sushi was also on point. An overall delightful experience with kind staff who clearly care about their guests. " (*Curated Review*)

" I enjoyed this cozy restaurant a few weeks ago and the experience was delightful. The grilled fish was flaky and lightly seasoned, just how I like it! The sweet soy sauce adds that delightful Japanese touch. I found the service to be quick yet thorough, which made my experience even more enjoyable. " (*Curated Review*)

" A perfect place when you crave some genuine Japanese food! The tempura was so fresh and tasted awesome. I loved every moment spent at Kappo Sui. The owners and staff were friendly, and the quality of food exceeded my expectations. Can’t wait to go back! " (*Curated Review*)
