Asian dining is scattered all throughout Orange County, but separating the very best from the "just okay" can be a bit frustrating. Below are five of the absolute best, whether you have a lot of money to spend, or not so much, or whether you're in the mood for sushi, other seafood, or general Asian cuisine.

Blue Fin


7952 East Pacific Coast Highway
Crystal Cove Promenade
Newport Beach, CA

Open daily 11:30am-2pm, 5:30pm-10pm

This fine Japanese restaurant is definitely one of the best in Orange County, offering fine Asian dining at its best. A very extensive wine list compliments the delicious food, as well as a small selection of Asian beers, $10 martinis and, of course, many different kinds of sake.

As most nice Japanese establishments, this restaurant is definitely not cheap, with the more simple starters beginning at around $6.50 (marinated eggplant) and moving up in price all the way to the $28 Kobe Beef and Mushroom Tobanyaki. Entree prices start even higher, at $25 for the delectable grilled teriyaki- or lemon juice-style salmon, up to the $32 seafood tempura, which includes lobster, jumbo prawns, scallops and halibut. There is also a great selection of great-tasting sushi available, which is extremely expensive - but if you have the money to spend, it's more than worth the price. For a treat, dive into the Omakase, which is a multi-course, Chef's Choice meal.

The quaint, low-key environment provides a nice atmosphere perfect for intimate gatherings or a romantic night out, with a waitstaff that is wonderfully attentive and chefs that are very social and friendly.

Reservations are strongly recommended.
