Izakaya Restaurants in San Diego, CA

“Hole in the wall restaurant with amazing food. Reasonably priced, very friendly staff, and quick service. Always heard about this place and finally made it out and it did not disappoint!
1st trip here but definitely won't be the last.
Make sure to get there early and get your name written down on the paper.“

“Great JAPANESE Tonkatsu served with shredded cabbage salad just like in Japan“

“I enjoyed my visit to @zzansushisoju so much!
The atmosphere is incredibly welcoming, and feels very special and unique.
They even offer a cute #karaoke style room if you’re looking to host a private event, which I thought was such a lovely touch.
Their dishes are very generous, and everything we tried was delicious.
The Seafood #Pajeon (Korean pancake) is packed with seafood—you can taste it in every bite! 🦐
My favorite was the #Bulgogi japchae which was cooked to perfection and had such a deliciously savory flavor. 🤤

They also have a great variety of #sushi options that you definitely don’t want to miss.

Highly recommend paying them a visit.“

“Just be aware that an automatic gratuity is added for groups of six or more. Great to see Japanese chefs and Japanese speaking staff at the izakaya. They offer authentic Japanese dishes that you don't often see at other places. The poke bowl and tuna bowl were really good. I love the teishoku style meals with miso soup, pickled veggies, and all the little side dishes. Miso soup was really good! Lots of variety on the menu! The staff were very friendly too.“

“Eaten here numerous times. Excellent quality food, and service. Equivalent to San Francisco Bay Area Japanese restaurants..which are outstanding.“

“Great place to go when you’re craving ramen. They are very generous with the pork portions.“

“Delicious food…all of it, the Ramen, the sushi, everything!“
