We love this restaurant ! Food is amazing. Service is great. Came here for 3 nights during our trip. I loved what I had, it left me craving for sashimi still.
Orange County Museum of Art
Free entry. It's like a local galleria but I believe there will be more curation to come. You can park in the structure nearby. Parking is $15-20. There's a nice minimalistic cafe on the 2nd floor. Price is on the high side but you can stay there for however long you want.
SHABU WARA Japanese Premium Hot Pot
A great spot for Japanese shabu shabu in the neighborhood!
We came here for lunch. It was the restaurant's soft opening. They had a good menu already and served many popular appetizers like garlic edamame, takoyaki, fried chicken, soft shell crabs, etc.
Great soup base options: We chose spicy miso tonkotsu and regular tonkotsu as soup base. Flavorful and healthy. They had vegan options too.
Many entree options too: wagyu, different types of ribeye, kurobuta, lambs, seafood and veggies. And we ordered the regular but they had large and side order for smaller portion. Each entree order came with veggies and noodles. We also ordered the spinach ramen and Loved it. I especially loved then meat quality. It was really fresh, tender and juicy. I liked the size and thickness of the meat slice that it soaked up the flavor of the soup base but was a big piece and cooked within 10 seconds. We didn't need sauce.
We checked in for free sake but we didn't drink so they gave us mochi ice cream. But we also ordered the ice cream macaroons. It was a great lunch. We'd definitely go again for dinner or lunch.
