About this restaurant

Neighborhood gem
Good for special occasions
Innovative

Laguna Beach's first sustainable sushi restaurant. At Oto Sushi, we bring you the freshest, highest-quality seafood and ingredients sourced from certified sustainable fisheries and eco-friendly farms, promoting ocean conservation and responsible farming with every bite.

Our scratch kitchen makes all our sauces in-house, free from preservatives and artificial ingredients. Our menu is thoughtfully designed to cater to various preferences, with 98% of our offerings gluten-free, including gluten-free soy sauce, tempura, and more.

Our signature menu features standout items like the Laguna Heat Roll; Nigiri with Yakumi, where each piece of premium fish is delicately enhanced with fresh, seasonal garnishes; and our award-nominated Oto Burgers, a sushi-inspired twist on a classic burger with bold umami flavors. For lovers of Japanese barbecue, our Robatayaki selections bring the rich, smoky flavors of traditional Japanese grilling to your table.

Laguna Beach is so lucky to have a great restaurant like Oto Sushi. The food is fantastic, the atmosphere is inviting (though can be loud when it’s full), and the service is wonderful. Dylan was our server tonight and he’s simply the best - attentive, checks in to make sure everything is good with the food and drinks, and is really nice! I’d ask for his table again in a heartbeat. The food selection is wide enough that even the pickiest eater can find something to love and it all comes from the kitchen perfectly prepared. We’ll definitely be back!

We met the owner who is incredibly charming and passionate about sushi. And who convinced us to come back for the hamburger, which will will be definitely doing. What a fantastic new addition to Laguna!
