“ Totoya has become my wife and my favorite sushi spot. Try their Gyoza. It’s our favorite appetizer. I like the sushi sampler while my wife likes the rolls. Her favorites are the Fiesta rolls, Marbella, and caterpillar roll. The ambiance is great there but the place is small. Sitting outside is the best is the weather is right which it usually is in San Juan Capistrano. I like this spot even better than Gen Kai in Dana Point which is our friend’s favorite spot. Been to both. This place way better! ”
“ I really love this place. Some of the sushi is a bit overpriced (crispy tuna cakes) but overall the sushi is really well priced and absolutely delicious. It is our go to and I’m always happy to come here. Especially the lunch specials- a nice mix of roll and nigiri or sashimi and soup and salad. So happy they’re in my hood. ”

“ We have been coming here for years and every time we have an incredible experience. The food is delicious, the service is kind and friendly and the atmosphere is delightful (we enjoy sitting outside). Reservations are recommended however we walked in at 5pm when they opened and they were happy to accommodate us. I personally enjoy the Marbella Roll and the Fried Jalapeno tapas. ”
“ I love this restaurant! Junko is a great hostess/owner , and her positive attitude and kindness sets the mood for a great meal every time. The food also speaks for itself. There are some great food options for those looking to be adventurous. There is also something for kids. ”
“ Make sure to get a serving of their real Wasabi for your sushi!! One or the few places that actually has the good stuff. They're usually pretty busy here but you'll still find seating if you wait a few minutes. ”
“ Amazing dinner! Everything was so fresh and delicious. Our small group tried 9-10 dishes, each one better than the last. Atmosphere was wonderful and welcoming. Friendly staff. Many locals and regulars. Looking forward to our quick return there!!! ”
“ Excellent! We have eaten sushi all over California and this place is among the best! It blows away the expensive place by John Wayne Airport (you know the one). We had sashimi, multiple rolls, miso and it was all top notch. Do yourself a favor and get there early. We arrived at 11AM and people were already in line to get this amazing food. ”
