A must visit. Spicy tuna was 5-star, not made with mayo . Also try the unique Battera "box" sushi , which is not rolled but layered, and the scrumptious black sesame creme brulee .
Fish is REAL fish , salmon and tuna got melted in my mouth. Nothing to do with sushi in Italy ???? Seaweed 's sauce is something delicious. Order Rainbow rolls !
Don't order. Sit at the Sushi bar and ask the Chef make something for you. Best Sushi restaurant in SD and one of the best in the country .
This is some of the best sushi I've had. Ever. Sit at bar for a lively and interactive experience. The uni is local and as good as it gets. I always go back when in San Diego.
Tuna Belly (toro ) sushi nigiri is on point... very flavorful. Staff are very friendly . Highly recommended.
Excellent cuts of fish , delicious oysters , and the rainbow roll was good. I would pass on the unagi and Philadelphia rolls .
Sushi and sashimi are amazingly fresh and well prepared, perfectly combined to a friendly staff .
I love Japanese food and this little gem in San Diego is the sushi place!
Delicious edible art constructed before your eyes. Highly recommended.
High quality fresh fish . Good sushi rice . Easily one of the best Japanese places in San Diego. Quality comparable to Sushi Ota.
Surprisingly great sushi spot in San Diego. The local uni is a must order. Friendly staff .
One of the best sushi restaurants downtown. Kinda pricey but worth it if you like good quality. Try the spicy tuna tartar . They even sprinkle a bit gold on top. It's quite beautiful.
When you taste their fish , you know that is only made with the freshest, and finest ingredients. I have never ordered a Teriyaki bowl at a Sushi restaurant , but I did here--and now I understand why.
Delcious Black Cod , great fried rice and superb tuna ????????
Great place for traditional sushi offerings. Order the Rainbow roll and flowered zucchini appetizer .
Best sushi in San Diego , I go there every year, several nights, while at Comic Con
Fantastic sushi , loved the special eel roll !!
Let the sushi chef choose from the freshest selections of fish in San Diego. Fantastic presentation and flavor.
My favorite sushi restaurant in San Diego. If you want to sit at the sushi bar , make sure you make reservations . You may arrive and see an empty seat at the sushi bar , but they will still tell you t
Our chef , Hiroshi, was very friendly and knowledgeable about the sushi he was serving.
Dragon roll not on the menu . Delicious!
Amazing sushi !!! Definitely #1 in my book . Great service also!
Everything I have eaten and imbibed here has been excellent.
Best sushi in san diego . Try the baked giant orange clam in the shell.
The freshest salmon I have ever had! Tuna was even better! Paul and Amy
Pick sushi or sashimi and ask the chef to pick. Amazing !
Pretty expensive , but... Try the tara kasuzuke (grilled black cod ). It's delicious.
Some of the best sushi I've ever had - even something so simple as a tuna roll was just to die for. Sit at the bar and ask for what's good that day!
Great sushi , great chefs !
Freshest and cleanest uni I've ever had.. It was just sweet and melted like butter, no brine or fishy taste...
Not on the menu but they make a great Chirasi bowl. Just ask Makoto.
Asome! One of the best japanese restaurants i've ever try

Great fresh fish . Sit at the bar ,and ask them to make for you.
