The first Orange County location at Huntington Beach opened a few months ago. We were so excited to visit and find out what the raves were all about! We started with drinks and soon learned that Wokano offers a host of Asian-inspired cocktail selections and a reasonably-priced wine and sake list. Above we selected Ginseng Mule<\/strong> ( Russian Standard Ginsing Vodka, Giffard Ginger, Ginger Beer, Lime) and the Wokcano Pear<\/strong> (Grey Goose Pear, Pear Brandy, Lychee Puree), both were delicious!<\/p>\n

\"Collages167\"For appetizer, we chose\u00a0Sashimi Appetizer<\/strong> that consisted of Salmon, Tuna, and Yellowtail, a great way to tease your appetite for the food to come.<\/p>\n

\"Wokcano-44\"<\/p>\n

We\u00a0wanted to try a bit of everything and love colorful food. This popular Rainbow Roll <\/strong>came highly recommended by the guests in the next booth. A wonderful blend of Tuna, fresh Salmon and Yellowtail on top of a California roll with avocado and ponzu sauce.<\/p>\n

\"Collages168\"<\/p>\n

Okay we saw the name of the next item and had to experience it. Without further ado we present above, The Monkey Brain<\/strong>. It is easy to see how it got it’s name and despite what may seem gruesome it is actually very tasty – a Tempura Avocado stuffed with fresh Spicy Tuna and Crab meat topped with a Spicy Eel Sauce that explodes in your mouth. No worries, it’s the flavor, the heat is quite tame.<\/p>\n

\"Collages171<\/p>\n

Okay so we had to try some of the more Chinese influenced dishes. First up was the Garlic Black Bean Pork Belly<\/strong>. As much as we enjoyed the first few items we tried, this mix of Premium Pork Belly saut\u00e9ed with Garlic, Bell Peppers, Jalape\u00f1os and Ginger in a Black Bean Sauce just blew us away with its wonderful savory flavor.\u00a0This is a must try dish!<\/p>\n

\"Wokcano-70\"<\/p>\n

We sure could not bypass the\u00a0classic Honey Walnut Shrimp<\/strong>. The Crispy Prawns with Glazed Honey Walnuts were made perfectly and it didn’t take us long to finish the entire dish.<\/p>\n

\"Collages173<\/p>\n

We truly enjoyed Wokcano’s innovative incorporation\u00a0of\u00a0vivid regional and multicultural Asian cuisines. \u00a0Design elements at all locations reflect a chic and relaxing atmosphere perfect for everything from solo dinning at the sushi bar and large groups at a communal table to happy hour drinks in the lounge.\u00a0Wokcano locations include Santa Monica, West Hollywood, Downtown Los Angeles, Burbank, Valencia, Huntington Beach and soon in Santa Ana. If you get a late night craving, just know that Wokcano is open until 2:00 AM everyday! Don’t forget, catering is also available for you special occasion.<\/p>\n

Thank you to all the the people at Wokcano that made our experience a great one and we can’t wait to return for more deliciousness.<\/p>\n
