Avatar roll was amazing
Family brought me here and it you are looking for some good food, come here. It was delicious! The service was awesome. I heard they have other locations as this place is small and sesting is limited but don't let it stop you from coming by. Sushi was fresh with great offerings, making and beer!
Hands down my favorite sushi spot in San Diego! We have been here countless times, including anniversaries, birthdays, and holidays. The sushi is so fresh and delicious, the staff and owners are so welcoming, and it truly feels like you belong. As much as I don’t want to share how wonderful this place is (so I can always get a seat), it’s too good not to share. Can’t wait for my next visit, which is probably this week.

SoCal Sushi is a small, cozy restaurant featuring around 4-6 tables, a bar with 5 seats, and a patio with 4 seats. The staff is friendly, fast, and attentive, making customers feel welcome from the start. The menu includes daily specials posted clearly and offers a wide selection of beer, wine, soju, and sake. The food is very fresh, with highlights like the black dragon roll, Alaskan roll, and various nigiri such as salmon belly, scallop, and halibut, all noted for their high quality and perfect rice. The chef's omakase special is also popular among guests. The restaurant maintains a clean environment and provides great value for the price, especially during happy hour with 20% off appetizers and drinks. While the restaurant is small and fills quickly, arriving early is recommended. Recent reviews praise the sushi's freshness, especially the Baja Roll and Hello Kitty, and the excellent service. Guests also appreciate the attention to rice quality and the skillful cuts of fish. Many mention the restaurant's cozy atmosphere and helpful staff, with some noting that the green tea mochi and fried PBJ sandwich add to the enjoyable experience. Overall, SoCal Sushi offers a delicious dining experience with fresh fish and attentive staff, making it a hidden gem worth visiting.
