“The decor is beautiful and intimate. The service was fast and friendly. Now to fhe good stuff - the sushi was very fresh and they had appetizers that I was surprised to see! Many sushi places in San Diego tend to be very Americanized, but they had a more authentic variety. The sashimi was delicious and fairly priced.“
“Good place for a nice meal. Very busy and loud. (I guess we showed up during happy hour or something). Food very nice presented and super tasty. Try "Ring of fire" if you like it spicy. Fried squid as a starter is a hit. Gyoza was okey, could have a bit more crunch to it. Over all, really good place. Service is really good, even when it's loyd and very busy. One strange thing though, TV over the sushi bar showing basket ball... feels a little bit off...and makes it even more "busy"/stressful.“
“Food is excellent but never order anything online unless you want to pay a huge mark up. I ordered online with the option "no service fee" on the order link, for a take out order I personally picked up at the restaurant. When I got there I was handed this paper. Lessons.“
“This is a funky, earthy place. Incredible food and really friendly and informal staff. The space is small and the chairs at the bar not super comfortable, but it has a great beach vibe and most importantly tasty food. I had a strawberry mojito flavored hard kombucha on draft, very good. The server had lots of recommendations and I went with the Grandview roll and the Crispy rice. Both were great. Spicy and a touch pricy, but it’s sushi and California so not unexpected. Overall, a good spot to grab some tasty eats and experience a little local culture. I’d go back!“
“We come here about every 2 months. Consistent good service, the sushi is always tasty and fresh, and the atmosphere is casual. We typically come early as it fills up fast on the weekends. My kids love the katsu and I almost always get a spider roll as on one of our rolls.“
“Regardless if you eat at the bar or the dining room- the food will be wonderful. I like to get a bar reservation when I'm in the mood for their unique sushi. I'm always treated to the freshest plates and epic service! The dining room is more limited. A three course dinner and an upscale atmosphere. You really can't go wrong. The Market is a place I frequent regularly.“
“Service was amazing. Very nice workers. Ordered a yakisoba plate which was a great choice. The beef was very tender and the portion was HUGE. Also was recommended the chirashi sushi bowl. The fish did not disappoint. Honestly felt like I was back in Japan. Highly recommend this place! You will not regret.“
“This is amazing. The sushi is so fresh. Not even a hint of fishiness in any of the sushi. All you taste is the delicious fish. No weird after taste or anything like that. They have amazing specialty rolls. They've got truffles they've got smoker. They will blow your mind. I highly recommend people check this place.“
“Excellent experience with AMAZING food!! The server was awesome and helped us pick out several rolls and a few other specialty items. The sushi was so fresh and everything was delicious. I'll definitely be coming back for more! If you are looking for an upgraded sushi experience and not your typical budget sushi, this is your place!!!“
“Yoshino's sushi is the best. I love it and so do my children. The vinegared rice is also delicious and you can eat as much as you want. As soon as I took the first bite, I felt that the sushi was freshly made. Unfortunately, I will be moving so I won't be able to eat there anymore.“
“Visiting from LA and I would drive down here again just for the sushi. Been eating sushi all my life and the quality and taste of the fish is a 10. Additionally, the Fantasy Roll is, by far, the BEST roll I've had in my life. The Tempura wasn't my favorite, but it was by no means bad.“
“The service here is wonderful!! Our server was very attentive and so kind. The staff all work together to make everyone's dining experience great. For appetizers we got Takoyaki and their special soft shell crab buns. The Takoyaki came out piping hot and was so flavorful! The soft shell crab buns are featured on their Spring Menu and they were very unique. The crab is fried and seasoned with mayo and pickled onions. I felt that there was too much mayo. For ramen we tried Tonkatsu and Miso ramen-- the broth is ok, I would add extra spice for some additional flavoring. Overall, not a bad ramen place in north county!“
“Bulgogi pancake and fried rice were particularly delicious. Rolls very good too. Service was good and friendly. Place had a nice vibe, and not too loud - possible to have a normal conversation over dinner without shouting over the music or other patrons. Will definitely be back.“
“Food was great and the female wait staff were so nice but the male kitchen staff made my friend and I quite uncomfortable with so much staring at one point it seemed all of them were out in the front and were staring so much. No hate to the restaurant but i’d like to comment on it because this sort of stuff can be very uncomfortable for women I’m just trying to enjoy a meal and don’t want men staring for no reason.“

“After eating here, I am convinced that heaven exists. I could spend a lifetime inside this restaurant and not find a single thing to improve. This is the best poke place I have ever been to in my entire life...top quality everything. There is much more than poke here too. It's clean, it's fast, it's a good price, it's delicious, and it's a lot of food.“
“There’s something for everyone here. From a sushi roll to the bento combo. I treated myself, Sunday night dinner was the Cali roll and steak bento combo, came with the soup and salad. Everything was spectacular. You’re hard pressed to find a better meal.“
“Best Japanese restaurant in the area! High quality, best tasting, beautiful presentation. Awesome wall sized display with video of locations in Japan make for a lovely ambience.Parking: Use the parking structure just west of the restaurant.“
“This is a Japanese restaurant where you can enjoy a pleasant meal with fresh ingredients and friendly service.Salmon skin salad is a great appetizer as it combines crispy fried salmon skin with vegetables.The special nigiri set was good and the California roll was well made, had a good texture and the ingredients were fresh.I think it will be a nice and enjoyable time to eat with your lover and family.The bathroom is inside, but it is also located near the restaurant bar, so you can use it comfortably.Udon is delicious because it has good broth, is not salty, and is protein.“
“Chef Patrick is an artist! He and his team are the perfect choice for a special evening! We hosted 7 VIP business clients for dinner and the evening was perfect. Each course was uniquely wonderful in sight, smell and taste. The entire meal felt like an experience in the best sushi restaurant, but even more special in the comfort of our home. As a discriminating traveler of many outstanding dining experiences, I would absolutely recommend Sushi Florist for your event!“
“Probably the best hidden secret sushi spot in north county. Kuro-san is a excellent chief takes pride in all his creations. Easy to talk to, share a drink or even a good joke. Everything is delicious. Sushi is not rushed and should be enjoyed slowly, This not fast food. Service is good, but, when busy might take a little time. They feeling you get when walking is. Kuro is taking you to his world and you need to soak it all in. And Enjoy!!“
“Our favorite in San Diego north county. Great quality, reasonable prices, friendly staff. On the rare occasion they made a mistake, they bc protected it and added something extra too :)They are also good with allergy customers, ensuring no gluten, dairy etc“
“This place is awesome, the owner is so kind and friendly. I went a few months ago and was so kind. We had questions and he answered them and had such a great energy vibe. Seems like a one man show so you have to understand if it's "slow" but I mean what do you expect. It 's one guy so if you can get past that and put away your preferences for quick fast food and embrace that good food takes time. Then you'll really really enjoy this place.He also gave us Japanese candy for free which was awesome.“
“Our go to sushi restaurant in San Marcos!! Their staff treats us well. Always welcoming and happy. We love coming here bc they have the best rolls and our family truly enjoys this place for our sushi family dinner nights!! Our favorite rolls are the Ichiban roll, Twin oaks roll, Ahi Special roll, Chicken of the Sea roll. Oh and the house fried rice we always get as well!! All must try items. Thank you again to the staff who are wonderful people!“
“This is a restaurant week review for lunch. I had the soup and sushi mixed plate.The soup was miso with some veggies - I appreciated that it was not overly salted.The sushi platter didn’t taste amazing, maybe the rice was a little dry. I was a little disappointed in the fish flavor. I love the vibe so may go back and try something else next time.Parking: Easier to park on the second floor instead of down by jimbos.“
“It was my first time here and I just want to say that the staff was amazing the sushi rules were very well put together taste very wonderful and they had a very fast service I have to admit I was in love. Like I said it was out of the blue and I highly recommend this place if you're looking for a good place for sushi!“
“Great sashimi and sushi. Definitely worth a visit. They have tuna belly and it was great. Sea urchin, vegetarian options, noodles and many more choices for everyone.You'll want a reservation as the wait can be long.Service varies depending on how busy they are.Vegetarian options: Lot's of options for vegetarians.Parking: Easy to find parking“
“Used to be absolutely in love with Tabu however this last time I went back after years to a new location I've never tried and quality has definitely shifted slightly on the negative side. I still enjoyed my food but the old quality was missing. The staff seemed a little distracted and not on top of the tables. The atmosphere was nice though. I really enjoyed the decor.“
“Me and my Dad frequent this spot, he does business at Palomar College. We've tried all the local Sushi restaurants and this is EASILY THE BEST.Today we had a Sashimi combo each, and I had 3 hand salmon rolls.We usually get a large Kirin each and a large sake to share.HUKU's fish is high QUALITY and the rolls are wrapped expertly. Get something with rice if you wanna get full, but if you are a fan of fish the SASHIMI and hand rolls are AMAZING.The COMPETING RESTAURANTS more EXPENSIVE despite the smaller portions and LOWER QUALITY fish. One local competitor has really cheap sake but it's exactly that, CHEAP and harsh.We think this is the "BEST BANG FOR YOUR BUCK" sushi in the area!“
“My boyfriend and I are pretty much sushi snobs and are critics of quality, freshness, flavor, ambiance, cleanliness and attention to detail. Junmai did NOT dissapoint! Great service, friendly, quick and hospitable. This is a must try restaurant! Would DEFINITELY recommend to friends and family!!“
“The Del Mar roll was the best sushi I have had in a long time and very filling! Ensui Sushi Bar and Grill stands up to their name. It is not the largest place, but it had 3 large TVs with March Madness on each one. I am so glad I found Ensui Sushi and will definitely be back!“
“Recently moved to the area and decided to stop in on New Years Eve for an early dinner. The place wasn't too busy, but still had a great vibe. We were greeted by Jade, who was super friendly and explained each of the flavors of the Hard Kombuchas and even let us try a few! I had the Key Lime Pie. Their sushi menu is extensive, and has the basic sushi rolls and also specialities. Jade also knew a lot about the menu and the rolls, and recommended the moonlight roll and the grandview. We also got other items on the menu. Overall, we highly enjoyed the place and are happy we have a taproom/sushi in our new home!!“
“Absolutely crushed our expectations!The French Kiss was an absolute delight of flavors, The pork belly robata absolutely melted in our mouths, and the Summer roll (on its little skewers) was fresh and delightful.Even our dessert, the butterscotch pudding, was full of surprises. The addition of the black sesame seeds and the crushed cookies added so much complexity without taking anything away from a good, solid, creamy pudding.I did have to ding them one star on service though, as we went through our entire meal without receiving a single refill on our sodas. We didn't ask for one, but still, we shouldn't have to. Also, we asked for straws and they never arrived.Still, not enough to Mar the experience. 10/10 will come back.Parking: The parking lot in front of the place is very, very small. The Chase Bank lot across the street is for customers only during the day and a paid lot after. However, if you enter the lot and then keep going, there is free parking in a lot just on the far side of the Bank. It's really not that far of a walk to get the free parking.“
“I recently had the pleasure of dining at Gami Sushi for dinner. From the moment I stepped in, I was impressed with the casual yet inviting atmosphere of the restaurant. But what truly stole the show was the exceptional quality of the fish and the use of fresh wasabi.Despite its casual atmosphere and reasonable price, Gami Sushi manages to maintain a level of quality that exceeds expectations. The friendly staff and attentive service further contribute to the overall positive experience. Whether you're looking for a quick sushi fix or a relaxed evening with friends, Gami Sushi offers a delightful combination of quality food and a laid-back atmosphere.When it comes to sushi, quality is of utmost importance, and Gami Sushi certainly delivered. The fish was undoubtedly top-notch, boasting a remarkable freshness that elevated the dining experience. Each piece melted in my mouth with a perfect balance of textures and flavors. It was evident that great care was taken in sourcing the ingredients, as only the freshest and highest-quality fish made it to the plate.Overall, I highly recommend Gami Sushi. Prepare to be impressed by the vibrant flavors and impeccable sushi craftsmanship.“
“Never leave reviews but I had to for this place, absolute gem, for the price they cannot be beaten. Been going for 2+ years regularly. Small mom and pop that's takeout only (at time of writing). The chef is generous with the fish portions, and the lady at the front is very kind and checks every order to make sure it is right. My only complaint is non-recyclable take-out boxes. Leave a nice tip!“
“We went in for a birthday celebration and we're seated very quick, which was perfect since we had little kids. Once sat down water was brought immediately and drink orders taken. Very good recommendations from the server to get the love boat for our larger party. Servers were all very nice and responsive to all the request. Thank you for making the birthday easy.Kid-friendliness: Brought 4 kids in range from 8 to 17.“
“What really sends this place to 5 stars is the price you get here. The food is good, above average, but not the best you can get. However, it's probably the best food you can get at that price anywhere in the county. If you like eel, get the Unagi donburi!“
“We don’t get out much — the last time we ordered from here was during the pandemic! We dined here and were pretty impressed with the quality of food. At first, there was a bit of sticker shock, but we were very pleased with everything. The flavors were so rich and authentic …and the serving sizes were large! We had an early dinner. Service was welcoming and they even had live music. I’m actually shocked the ratings aren’t higher here. I definitely recommend!“
“Being someone who loves sushi, this is definitely a great place to stop. My friend had talked about Rolled Up and wanted to introduce it to us. I walked around Windmill Food Court and decided that I was wanting to try some sushi. I had never tried a Sushi Burrito before and have heard a great deal of good things about it. I ended up going with The Works Sushi Burrito, and man was it delicious. Loved the great selection of fish, tempura, and vegetables that made up the inside of the burrito. High quality ingredients. My burrito took about 15/20 minutes to be made, whilst others in my group only waited for about 5. It was fantastic, but for $20 I would say it definitely is an expensive meal. If you are willing to shell out the $20 I would definitely say it's worth a try!“
“Was a quiet night being a very rainy Monday. We devoured everything we ordered. Staff were gracious and friendly. Restaurant was clean and immaculate. Music was peaceful. We had one of the best meals we have had in Del Mar. We highly recommend. A must try. Will come back every time we are in town from Idaho.Vegetarian options: The veggie roll was so delicious. One of the best rolls I’ve had!“
“J Box @ The Island is by far my favorite lunch spot. I come here at least 1-2 times per week.They have the freshest Poke around. They really ruined all the other Poke places for me because every time I try one - I always compare it to theirs and it is never as good.“
“Tried Choice for the first time and was very impressed! Wanted a smoothie that had benefits vs just fruit and it did not disappoint. I tried the unicorn and my sister had the warrior both very good! And the protein balls was also very good!“
“One of my favorite sushi spots ever continues to never disappoint! I don't typically order the same thing since they have their specialty rolls that change monthly. I like to see what the latest rolls are at the moment. I ordered the no rice roll and another roll. Both were delicious! As always, I ordered their house salad and miso soup that were just as great.“
“Awesome diverse menu with some great Happy Hour specials. The Cold Ramen is excellent and not on many Ramen shop menus. Some unique, fun and funky sushi rolls, and best of all the prices are competitive. Staff was friendly and attentive. We had an enjoyable family dinner here, definitely a hidden gem. Highly Recommended!Vegetarian options: Vegan Ramen options!“
“Absolutely loved this sushi restaurant! I got the double salmon tempura roll, and the baked salmon roll and they were both absolutely delicious.Service was great and they got a 30% off happy hour from 3:30 PM to 5:30 PM each day which is awesome.“
“This is a simple, no frills, small sushi restaurant located in Vista. It gets busy, but you never have to wait long for a seat. This is our family favorite for sushi. Their prices are reasonable. On top of that, they often have a Groupon special available for dine in only, so you can really get some good deals. The sushi rolls are well put together, fresh and flavorful. They have a wide selection. Those who don't like sushi can find other options such as teriyaki, which I absolutely love. Our favorites are the tiger roll, Crunchy roll, lemon, roll, and scary roll. We have tried just about everything and nothing has disappointed us! I absolutely love their hot tea.“
“I didn't start shopping here until all the inflation hit us, and it has been a miracle place for me. I wish I had shopped here before then. Prices are good and their bulk section is awesome. Hopefully some day they'll get curbside pickup“
“I must admit their fusion style is what drew us to try out this place. Unfortunately the ideas on their menu were either not stocked or even ready for the potential upcoming lunch rush (we showed up around 1130ish) so I ended ordering something i wasn't even in to. But it turned out OK- portions are small for their price.“
“Just moved up here from down south 3 months ago. Been to scared to try a new sushi spot. Super sushi did not disappoint have it a go today with my mom. Sushi was amazing good portions decent pieces. Extremely fast service. Will definitely be coming back soon with the rest of the family.“
“We've been coming to this location occasionally for birthdays and holidays. It's my mother-in-law's favorite place.Service is decent but it really depends on how busy the restaurant is. Sometimes the server is attentive and sometimes the server comes to check in at the beginning and the end for the check. When it's busy, it can get really challenging to get refills or utensils.Our teppanyaki chef has been different almost every time we went but most of them have similar cooking styles.My go-to is their ribeye steak and colossal shrimp combination dinner. Comes with choice of miso or onion soup and a side salad with the ginger carrot dressing as starter and 3 shrimps. We usually get the chicken fried rice over the steamed rice. The in-laws are big fans of the Shotgun Special which gives you 3 proteins - choice of ribeye or filet, lobster tail and choice of shrimp or scallop.It's dinner and a show with some jokes sprinkled here and there, what's not to love? Great option for birthdays, anniversary or just date night. Highly recommend reservations for big parties and for major holidays. They don't seat you until your whole party is present.Food is buttery, savory and served piping hot.They may seat you with others as the tables are intended for 8 seats but sometimes you get lucky - depends on how busy they are.They also serve sushi and hot dishes if you're not in the mood for teppanyaki. We have not tried these options so I can't personally comment.“
“I got the Hand Rolls (comes with 5 rolls... Shrimp, Spicy Tuna, Salmon, Scallops and Yellowtail) and each one was better than the last... super fresh... zero fishy smell... the Scallops was surprisingly my favorite. I've had bad scallops before and wasn't sure what to expect. But its absolutely delicious. They have 5 different sauces to add for dipping, just get them all they are excellent. Service was quick and friendly, I'll be back 100%“
