Best Sushi Spot in San Diego!
I've been coming to this sushi spot for over a decade. Even though I'm from out of town, the staff has always recognized me and provided great hospitality. Without a doubt, this is the best sushi spot in San Diego.

Amazing Food and Friendly Service!
I went to this restaurant with my papa and we got the happy bento box and the ring of fire. Both dishes were really amazing. The service was super nice and friendly. I would gladly recommend this place, just have fun with parking since the closest usually available spot is a 4-hour public parking about a block down.

Go-to Sushi Spot with Great Deals
This is my go-to sushi place as an Obecian. The sushi is excellent and the rolls are good in size. The happy hour prices are the best deal for great sushi, beer and sake! I like to sit and eat at one of the two areas overlooking the sidewalk and street. It's better than tv. The staff have always been friendly, courteous and knowledgeable. I wish I was there eating now!

Good food, but ikura needs improvement
My experience at the restaurant was overall good. The rest of the food was amazing, but the ikura was definitely not fresh; it tasted and smelled like it had been there for a week. Thanks for the otherwise great meal.

Terrible Katsu, Good Sides
My experience at this restaurant was quite mixed. I ordered the fried Katsu, which was terrible. The chicken had a flavor I never want to taste again, and the rice was also not good. The dipping sauce tasted old. However, the miso soup was good, as were the calamari and fried wontons. Despite some good items, I didn't feel very good after the meal.

Excellent American Sushi Experience
My experience at this restaurant was excellent. I heavily recommend the dragon roll, tamagoyaki, and quail egg shooters. The food was rated a 5 out of 5, service was a 5 out of 5, and the atmosphere was a 5 out of 5.

Amazing Sushi and Sashimi Experience
My experience at this restaurant was amazing. The place was clean, and we enjoyed a full spread of sushi, sashimi, and miso. Everything tasted amazing, and the sashimi was some of the best I've ever had. The sake was fresh and delightful.

Amazing Japanese Veggie Udon!
My experience at the restaurant was fantastic! I was amazed by the amazing veggie Japanese options. I especially love the udon noodles, which reminded me of my trip to Japan. The food was so flavorful!

Great Sushi Near the Pier
My experience at this restaurant was great. I enjoyed the reasonably priced sushi, conveniently located just a block from the pier. The service was friendly, and the menu was pretty extensive. I particularly enjoyed the Nigiri Sushi & Sashimi.
