Dined for the first time at Himitsu while visiting San Diego from TN. Both the service and the food were phenomenal! My sister and I got a couple of the night’s specials, as well as some sashimi and rolls – all delicious. Even better was the service. A special shout out to our server, Tasha, who was so lovely! While the whole staff was great, she really made our meal special. Thanks again!!

Honeymoon oyster is sooooo good. Nigiri plate is alright. Fish is fresh but rice is not well prepared (kinda hard). Plus I had food poison symptoms 1.5 hour after lunch (and this is the only food I had today so…)

We did extensive research on the best sushi/omakase spot in San Diego and this was one of the recommended spots.

Omakase at Himitsu at the Sushi bar was my most enjoyable dining experience in recent memory. Extraordinary quality and service. Chef Miguel is an artist and it was an absolute pleasure watching him work. The Omakase started with sashimi appetizer, followed by a miso soup, a generous sashimi plate (Japanese sardine was my favorite), hot appetizer, and then the nigiri portion of the meal. This was the standout, each piece crafted to perfection. The dessert was a yummy mango ice cream sandwich. The excellent service was managed by Brandon, who recommended a wonderful Sake to pair with the dinner. Next level dining, would recommend sushi bar for full experience.

Wow, we came here for dinner tonight for our 1 year wedding anniversary and what a wonderful experience it was. The atmosphere was lovely and the food was out of control. Our server, Thomas, was so attentive and totally on board when we asked him and the chefs to pick our nigiri for us. We were deeply impressed with his service and had such a fun time chatting with him. The manager came and checked on us multiple times and clearly cared about the restaurant the customers experience. Everyone went above and beyond to make our night a special one and we will be raving about this place to all our family and friends!

Excellent. Excellent service. Excellent quality product. Excellent preparation. BTW.. I cook a lot, and I have traveled a lot, my typical Wednesday bbq is over french white oak. There may be better sushi spots that we can argue about here in SD but if you come here and then write a 1 star you are off, period, you missed the boat. Chances are, you lack taste, you lack perspective, and you don’t know a good thing when its placed in front of you. Himitsu is excellent. Thank you guys!

My wife and I went for my Birthday and had the Omakase experience and Miguel and his staff did not disappoint. I’ve had plenty of sushi in my life and if you’re looking for a dine in experience with some top quality sushi, friendly staff and a great selection of Sake then I recommend you add this location to your ‘must try’ list if you are wver in the area. I’ve included some photos of my omakase experience.

I cannot say enough good things about this little gem of a sushi restaurant. The service from Miko was impeccable and the rest of the staff was wonderful as well. The manager came to check on us, which you don’t get often any more from restaurants. The flavor of this food was out of this world. The fish was fresh and flavorful. They had just the right amount of variety. I’m not sure what they do to their rice but it’s just the right amount and right consistency. Even their soy sauce doesn’t taste like what you buy at the grocery store. It was a perfect meal to celebrate our anniversary. I honestly loved this meal more than eating at Nobu. It felt more special. We will be back.
