“Oh ma gawd, this place is fantastic! I had been looking for an all you can eat (AYCE) sushi joint since RB Sushi stopped offering AYCE after the pandemic. Fortunately this place is not a long drive from where I live in Escondido. One of the best things about Yakumi is they don't try to control my health by only offering low sodium soy sauce like many places do nowadays; they offer the red-bottled full sodium soy sauce! The sushi is delicious, as are the teriyaki chicken and the appetizers! Staff was very nice and attentive and the service was fast. They even serve water in fancy schmancy vacuum tumblers so it stays nice and cold! The bad news is that now I will spending more of my money on AYCE sushi since I found this place hahahahahahahaha ??????. Thanks, Yakumi Sushi! I'll see you again soon ?“
“Just stumbled upon this place after going to AMC for movie night. Was pleasant surprise. Service amazing. Had dragon roll, lots of eel. Had miso ramen. Better than most specialty ramen places. Great flavor and lots of meat and garnish. Bento box with chix teriyaki good. Recommend“
“Kai Sushi is more than just a restaurant; it’s an experience, and it made our date night absolutely unforgettable! From the moment we walked in, the ambiance set the perfect mood—intimate, inviting, and stylish. The staff’s warm welcome and genuine smiles made us feel at home.Our date night was elevated by the extraordinary sushi creations Kai has to offer. Every bite was a burst of flavor, showcasing the chef’s culinary artistry and dedication to freshness. The extensive menu impressed us, offering a delightful range from classic rolls to innovative specials. Each dish was not only delicious but also beautifully presented.The attentive service added an extra layer of charm to our evening. The staff went above and beyond to ensure our date night was nothing short of perfect.This will become a regular date night spot for us at Kai Sushi. If you’re looking for a place to create special memories, whether it’s a date night or any occasion, Kai Sushi in Poway is the place to be. Trust me, you won’t be disappointed! I recommend the House special andSunshine roll.“
“The chicken katsu here is the best I’ve ever had in my entire life. The service is fantastic and the cooks are skilled and friendly. I love the cozy and warm atmosphere that this place provides, I look forward to going here whenever I’m in the area. THANK YOU GUYS!!!“
“We ordered udon soup noodles, spicy tuna roll, spicy scallop roll, elk roll miso soup, and salad. Rolls are tasty.Upon nood is yummy too but relatively small. People are nice. Both indoor and outdoor settings. The place is clean. Not noisy.Vegetarian options: Vegetarian rollParking: Park in front of the cafe.“
“We absolutely loved our experience here and would come back in a heartbeat. The attention to detail, small group setting, high quality fish, and excellent service blew us away. Such interesting and creative flavor combinations without overshadowing the beauty of the fish itself. I’ve never had an omakase experience quite like this and would definitely recommend you splurge and try it yourself!“
“Had an amazing time at Harmony. We sat at the bar and had the omakaze menu. The quality of the fish was incredible and the staff was so friendly and helpful. Chef Mickey does a wonderful job pairing flavors that have you happy to the last bite. Highly recommend; this place is a gem!“
“Love the variety in this small but big store. Service is always friendly. This is more of a note to myself for future reference than anything. Sushi: super fresh, obsessed Udon: prepackaged/refrigerated/frozen, yum Chicken meatballs: pass, ate cold and heated and neither was it Premade sandwiches: pass, semi expensive for what it is and then it was also pretty flavorless so not worth the convenience Premade rice triangles: ok but pass Pickled vegetables: yes, yum Premade curry: yum in a pinch and if already there but CoCo's reigns supreme Parking is available but wild“
“My husband and I decided to try this place on a whim since we were in the area. While it is a little on the pricey side, the food is completely worth it. They have the best spicy tuna I have ever had. It wasn't about nuking your taste buds, but a pleasant warmth that enhanced the taste of the tuna. Definitely order the Luna Lemon! We will have to come back because we saw the table next to us order some takoyaki and it looked amazing. I do recommend making reservations for weekend dinner, it was busy there!“
“My husband and I rarely go to sushi. Besides our favorite place back home because it’s usually such a disappointment. We decided to give this a try and I’m so glad that we did! Stephanie was phenomenal! ? The atmosphere was great and all of the food was delicious. We got a Bento box and two rolls and will definitely be back!“
“My new favorite local sushi spot! Great selection of rolls and great quality for the price! They also have combo options. I've enjoyed everything I've gotten so far. My favorite is the Lemon Cilantro roll. Gotta support my local small businesses!“
“I came here during happy hour, and the portions were big and absolutely delicious! I highly recommend the Vegas roll! The waitress was very kind, and everything was so neat and tidy. Even the bathrooms had a nice style and were clean. My only recommendation is to use Japanese music for the background instead of loud crazy American music. ;)“
“First time there and it was packed. Didn’t have to wait as long as they told us and once seated, we were greeted by our service who was absolutely awesome. She asked if it was our first time and it was, so she gave us the run down and some recommendations. Annie was probably one of the best servers we have had dining out in a long time! I hope they know what a great employee they have with her. Food was amazing and we will be back.“
“Food is excellent here. It's a feast for your eyes as well as your stomach. The yellowtail Crudo is one of my favorites. Chef Nghi and his staff are top tier. One of the best sushi restaurants in San Diego. You won't be disappointed.“
“I cannot say enough about Domo Kitchen. The food has been great and the service is always good. The Won Ton soup on a cold night is just the right thing.Parking: There's just so much going on in the mall that parking can be a challenge some times.“
“A delicious omakase in San Diego! Shoutout to our cousin for taking us here!We had a reservation at 7:30PM for a Saturday evening meal. I believe we were sat on time and we got right into drinks and the course. Staff was friendly checking in on us and Chef TJ was fun, positive, and created a great omakase environment!I won't go into too much detail of each fish (as the menu can change with each service), but for the value, I thought it was an amazing meal!Parking is relatively easy to find in the plaza.I'm headed back to San Diego next week...so I'm going to have Matoi again :D twice in 2-3 weeks is my kind of vibe!“
“I've been craving some fish and this had really hit the spot! I had gotten the sashimi bowl and it was really satisfying, the fish was cut into larger strips and it was tender and it didn't have a strong fishy smell to it. The rice underneath was quite good as well it was flavorful without being overly vinegar-y. Also if anyone was wondering what the difference was between the sashimi bowl and the sashimi set with rice (both of which are the same price), it seems like there's more rice in the sashimi bowl and there's some crushed seaweed and sesame seeds on the sashimi bowl between the rice and the fish. The restaurant itself is on the smaller side, I don't think I would bring more than 2-4 people with me.“
“We were doing errands in the area and I discovered this great sushi place hidden right by some office buildings. This place looks tiny on the outside but is the perfect fit for a nice lunch. The decorations and environment really sets the scene for the sushi.They have a great layout for lunch and a nice menu full of specials and numerous rolls. The waitress was great and had plenty of recommendations. We ordered a few rolls as well as a lunch special for our table.The food prices especially the lunch special offers all come with miso soup, salad, and the prices are great! They cater a lot to the local businesses.The rolls and food were delicious. Highly recommend this place for a perfect lunch and dinner place! Check it out!“
“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.“
“I ordered for pickup. I got the chicken pho, fries, and a rainbow roll. I’m very pleased with everything! The only thing I was not expecting was the fries were not plain…they were a little sweet and had fried garlic. Which was absolutely delicious! But I’d specify that on the menu just in case someone isn’t a garlic lover.Thank you! Will come again.“
“Food was EXCELLENT!!! We were a group of 3, we each ordered appetizers and entrees. IT WAS ALOT OF FOOD!!! Some items we ordered wished we could have had an explanation of how to eat it. Our server was friendly and the drinks were great as well! We were lucky enough to get there early and was able to get a karaoke room. There are only two, so you could be on a wait list. The room was $40 with a min of 1 hour, and I believe they start charging after every 10 minutes! Overall a fun time!!!“
“Kyodai means Brother. Oh, brother, this spot is on POINT. The service is solid. They don't bother you, you know... Which I find nice. They are busy, but not too busy, which is wonderful. Now, down to the food. I ordered the Sashimi lunch special, and I highly recommend it. The portions of each piece are a good size, fresh and tasty. It comes with a side of rice, house salad, and miso soup. It's such a great deal for a great lunch. Next time, I'll have to stop for dinner. Thanks.“
“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.“
“We've been coming to Domo since they first opened. It's our go-to sushi spot. One of my favorites is the Hamachi-Buri Kama. They only have so many each day, so it's first come first serve and takes about 15 minutes to prepare.“
“I was recommend to this place in by someone who used to work here. All their sushi rolls are delicious and come with so many pieces. The amount of pieces per sushi roll is worth the value. Each roll comes with approximately 12 pieces. For the quality and amount per roll I highly recommend this place. This place is my go to spot for sushi.“
“Love this place. San Diego has no shortage of Sushi, but we make a point of coming here as often as we can! Service is great, the staff are attentive and friendly, and they ever remember our favorite seat and order when we come in Nothing quite like a comfy local restaurant like Kaki to make you feel right at home. I highly recommend the Black Dragon roll, Salmon Sashimi, and some hot green tea“

“Delicious sushi at Niban! Nice casual restaurant to enjoy great seafood and relax. We had the Lion King Roll, albacore tuna supreme roll, eel hand roll, Dragon Roll, and gyoza. The service is very friendly and quick. They have an outdoor patio as well that’s dog friendly. Recommend!“
“I'm Japanese, but I like it better than Japanese ramen shops.Ramen eaten in Japan is delicious, butThere are times when I feel like something is missing, especially at chain stores.Of course, there are some restaurants that I like, and many that I return to repeatedly.But La Kirakiramen is delicious, and every time I eat it, I always want to come back.Because there's love in it.“
“Unassuming place with very yummy food. While their are slightly tastier places you have to wait very long to get a seat. Not here. Great food with little to no wait! Lots of food options as well.Parking: Very little parking in this area with many restaurants.Kid-friendliness: Friendly for kids.“
“We called ahead of time to make certain they would still be open at 7:30. They said yes so we came to try it out.We had the grilled daing bangus . It is a grilled milkfish with a mango salsa. It was wonderful!We also tried some sushi. They are not a sushi restaurant.“
“The food is solid here, and we love coming before or after a movie. The service was great, they were very attentive. I had a Philly Roll and a Salmon Roll with crunchies added. Didn't love the crunchies it was a little too much. Next time I will just order without it, as I was trying to do something different. My hubby got a spicy mutha roll and spicy edamame and loved both. My kid got the OG ramen with all the toppings in the side except for the noodles. He like the broth but didn't finish all his noodles, but he's six.The ambiance is pretty middle of the road sushi joint. Clean, and spacious. It does have a few TV's so you won't miss the game if you are into sports. We come here quite a bit when we come up here for shopping or movies so will definitely be back.“
“The seafood is absolutely fresh!!!! I ordered the Chirashi bowl; the sashimi is so fresh!!!!Loved the side dishes in the chirashi bowl. The table had chicken karaage (yummy), 1 of the popular appetizers to get, and sashimi. The clam sashimi is absolutely fresh as well as the yellowtail and salmon!!!! Will definitely come back when I visit. The service is great as well.“
“I order food from here regularly, so I know the food is delicious. Came with coworkers, and we were extremely impressed at the service. Food came out fast, and the server was attentive. We stayed long after we finished eating, and they made it clear we could stay as long as needed. We didn't feel rushed at all. The restaurant is small but welcoming.“
“Best sushi place ever! The food and service is amazing!! everyone is so nice and friendly. our food came out so fast and was soo good. The spicy garlic edamame is the best I’ve had and the Samurai roll was amazing ?? overall the place is so good me and my friends loved it! I recommend everyone to go!!“
“Amazing food! I don't normally leave any reviews but this place is fantastic. As a vegetarian is hard to find good meatless places to eat, but here they have options! I ordered the veggie crunch and it was delicious (and very filling) my husband ordered the caterpillar and he said it was delicious as well. If you are around Mira Mesa definitely stop by. That's all, keep up the good sushi! :))“
“Such a great dining experience for sushi and sashimi. The fish is so fresh and the rolls are so unique, you will not be disappointed! My wife and I came here and we were provided with quick professional service while also getting recommendations that exceeded our expectations! I highly recommend this place and we will be back!“
“Smaller than I remember,but I understand that with the times, I guess. Also, remember, if you order anything to go and you want it to be separate from other sushi rolls. You have to specify that, or they will shove them all together to probably save money. I don't know.?“
“Traditional Japanese sushi place that reminds me of Tokyo (except the portion sizes are bigger). The menu is mostly a la carte, so you can select the specific fish you want, not some random, slow-moving items they're trying to get rid of on a "chef's special." Service is fast and friendly, and prices are reasonable for the quality. They have yakitori, which is bbq chicken on a stick and a popular Tokyo street food that is a bit uncommon in the U.S..“
“Went on a weekday the place has ample amount of seating and parking. I ordered a spicy sesame ramen. It was good and quite filling. I personally prefer the Tajima Ramen to spicy sesame. There was a slight problem with our order where one of the dishes didn't arrive but was on the bill, but after pointing out it was taken of quickly. The mercury location doesn't have vegetable gyoza on the menu which the convoy location has. Woth visiting again.“
“This sushi spot is a great option for a speedy lunch or casual dinner. Their hour's are great: even opeb in-between L & D! They won't blow your mind w/ culinary innovation, but you get fresh, decent sushi in a clean & friendly atmosphere.The miso soup was a satisfying starter, hitting the spot with its savory warmth. The tempura was a bit standard but the gyoza pulled up their rating, but all still enjoyable. The sushi rolls were fresh BUT a little underl-constructed, nice choices.The the service & convenience are the best. The wait staff were incredibly friendly and attentive, making sure everything came out quickly. Plus, with a good selection of draft and bottled beers, it's was a relaxing and hassle-free experience.Overall, this restaurant won't be your next special occasion destination, but it's a reliable choice for a quick and tasty sushi fix. I'll definitely be back when I'm in the mood for a no-fuss, fresh meal.“
“We wait about 120 minutes. I expected to wait, but it was a little too long. The food was ok, but there was a very small selection to compare to Kura sushi in Japan. The server is a robot, and you can order on the table screen. You can enjoy real japanese sushi go round.“
“A place I look forward to going to. A HUGE selection of food, including sushi, salads, soups, vegetables, and Asian entrees, including shellfish. The desserts are vast with an ice cream bar with more toppings you can ever use. Service is constant and very attentive. Suggestion: They fill up quickly, especially lunch, so make reservations. If there was a 10 star rating system, this would be a 10.Parking: Fulls up quick, but you can always get one with a little patience.“
“Amazing staff. Nice people make the experience pleasant.The food is decent. I had one roll that was very rice-heavy, and one roll with pieces that were way too big, so it was a gigantic mess to eat. They do give you a lot of ginger and Wasabi.Prices are average to high. They have "half price" rolls, but the menu prices are so high on those that what you get is exactly what you pay for. There's no deal. Also you pay more if you order to go. And the prices are way higher than what Google maps shows, it would be nice if they would update that.I think they should just be honest and straightforward with pricing and not try to fake like they are doing you a favor. They aren't.This place is definitely not bad but it's not a place I would make a special trip for.Parking: It's tough if you come at dinner time and the lot is fullKid-friendliness: Family friendly, nice patioWheelchair accessibility: Accessible“
“Nice place ! Really good food , very traditional and good servers ! I read some reviews about this place and I saw people complaining about salt or stuff like that which I don't think it's accurate. From my perspective everything was awesome If you are looking for a good spot this is the place“
“Sushi Deli is a massive fan favorite for all of our friends and family. Yui, the owner, is so kind and is actually helping cater our wedding with all of our favorite dishes from here!! We’ve been regulars at the bar with G, who is awesome. My fiancé and I are vegetarian and we’re never short on options when we come here. An absolute gem in San Diego?“
“Last Wednesday I went there with colleagues. It looks small from outside but it was roomy and nice wall art.Due to the food allergies unfortunately I can't eat seafood but I did enjoy some appetizers as well as kalbi. Agedashi tofu was diced cut easy to eat for everyone. Just wished if there is more soup with it. Kalbi was tender and perfectly cook I enjoyed it. My colleagues enjoyed their hand rolls, sushi and others. I'd like to revisit there.“
“I love quite a few of their veggie dishes. Service is always attentive and whatever you ask for they bring it right away. It is a nice place as the music is not to loud and even when the place is packed you don't feel like getting in each other shoes.“
“Very laid back neighborhood sushi place. Pricing is very reasonable. We had bentos for lunch (sesame chicken and grilled mackerel). The panko breaded sesame chicken bites were utterly free off grease, crunchy and delicious. The mackerel was perfectly grilled and tasted very fresh.The only note I'd offer the restaurant: while the miso soup was excellent, the bowls are looking a little worn. It might be time to replace them?“
“Amazing food and service. Been here a few times. The Bento boxes and ramen are both delicious. Would highly recommend.Parking: Plenty of parking in the Plaza parking lot.Kid-friendliness: Always very friendly and accomadating for our toddler.“
