Quaint restaurant in a desirable location. Interior is decorated with animated cultural references from Pokémon, Mario, Yugioh, among other things. I stopped in for the lunch special (11AM-3PM) which is an incredible value, I’m almost certain this has to be a lost leader at the $13.5 as of time of writing. I had the option with Chicken Karaage + Edamame + 3 Temari Sushi (1 Salmon, 1 Spicy Tuna, 1 Ebi), which also comes with miso soup and a small salad. The chicken Karaage was juicy and tender with a reasonable amount of crunch to it and of course some light drizzles of sauce to enhance flavor. The sushi was really nice as well. The chicken, edamame, and most assuredly the Miso soup was piping hot and all of it was great. The lunch special alone would be enough to leave someone who was hungry content but if you are extremely hungry or looking for a larger portion I would tag along a roll. I additionally ordered a Tempura Cali Roll which is a deep fried roll, rich, creamy, hot, and filling. This was a perfect combination and overall I was incredibly satisfied with the meal, the value for the meal and the overall appearance and atmosphere of the restaurant. I would certainly recommend making a stop here

This place is a homage to anime and 90's Japanese pop culture. The food tastes very authentic and the service is unmatched. The priced are an absolute bargain. A true local find.

Great food. All the tuna cuts were excellent. Chicken karaage was juicy with a nice light batter. The warm sake was quite smooth. Some fun decor and the check came in an actual Dragonball manga.
Unassuming spot for high quality sushi. The happy hour is a great deal, and the regular menu is a great value for the food quality. The staff is friendly and recognizes repeat guests! I love to come after yoga.

The service was absolutely outstanding, warm, attentive, and seamless from start to finish. Every item in the photos looked incredible, and they tasted even better. My personal favorites were the carpaccio and the scallops, both were exquisitely prepared and bursting with flavor. Truly a memorable dining experience!

Best sushi spot in San Diego. Despite being a casual place, food is so so good! (and better than any fancier restaurant) This became our go-to sushi location since we visited the first time.
The entire staff tried make excuses regarding the food. Don’t come here. There was happy hour and they didn’t tell me and pretend like no one knows

Wide menu of fresh sushi in a very laid back, non serious atmosphere. Features real wasabi and collectors items

My favorite sushi spot in San Diego ! I usually just order to go. Sushi is always fresh and well prepared. Service is great! The shrimp tempura roll, lava roll and black pear are amazing !!

The food here is delicious. The service is great and the atmosphere is fun. But seriously, those rolls were amazing. We loved it.
