Stopped in here on a whim, was walking around the stores in La Jolla, and I am so glad I did! The service was wonderful, I sat at the bar and enjoyed watching the rolls being prepared. I ordered the edamame and the ex lovers roll- to die for! Highly recommend!

We waited a long time for our food but the service was great and the food was amazing. The place is very small inside so if it’s raining or cold I wouldn’t recommend it. Any other day, the quality of the sushi is superb!

Gave me food poisoning. And they forgot my friend’s meal. So we were waiting like 45 to an hour before we realized they were not just slow with it

Besides the wait time totally worth it! Sushi is my favorite food and I’m always willing to try new things. We had an aloha roll that came topped with macadamias and it was so delicious. Also had a dank roll and the name hits home once you have your first bite. We also had the beef gyoza which wasn’t too impressive. But the sushi is amazing. We also have a crispy rice roll and if you love crispy rice you will be in love with the roll. Loved the texture and flavors of everything.

Absolutely my most favorite sushi bar in California, especially because of the vegan sushi list! We stop here every single time we are in San Diego! Even if you like fish I would recommend trying some vegan rolls, they are mind blowing. If you like fish get the Nekosan roll, also mind blowing. Service is always fantastic, can’t recommend enough 11/10

I had the spicy tuna and the dirty blonde. The spicy tuner was not that great, great, no spice and very little flavor otherwise. However, it was definitely very fresh. The dirty blonde on the other hand, was one of the best roles I’ve ever had in my life.. Service was good good. Based on talking with a couple of other people that have been there several times, I would definitely recommend going but I would focus focus on their specialty rolls. You will Be pleased I am sure.
