RA Sushi Bar in Downtown SD

RA Sushi Bar in Downtown is a very modern Japanese American restaurant. The restaurant is very spacious so it’s great for a decent sized group. If you’re looking for a sushi restaurant that has a lot of room between you and another table, this is the place to go. The presentations were beautiful and looked really fresh. I was surprised to get real crab nigiri instead of imitation crab, which is actually a nice suprise since it really shows how they value fresh sushi. Their prices are reasonable but affordable nonetheless.

Sushi Deli in Downtown SD

I’ve been here many times over my stay in San Diego and it’s because of their great prices and amazing rolls. Most of the time you will see a long line during peak hours but the wait isn’t that long as they’re really fast paced. The sushi itself has quality that hits the spot and I often found myself ordering more than I could finish since it’s incredibly affordable. I 100% definitely recommend the Baja California roll when you go here. It’a really nice mix of Japanese and Mexican! This place is great to bring a few friends and family or a casual date.

Sapporo in Ocean Beach

Sapporo has affordable prices and is a great place to visit if you’re near the area. The salmon nigiri is really fresh and the cut is really thick. The ambience is very quiet inside compared to the busy street outside. I suggest getting hot green tea along with your sushi as you’ll have your own teapot and cups. I think Sapporo’s decor really fits the Japanese culture. It is a small restaurant so bringing along two to three friends is suggested. It looks like it can get really lively during the night time when the bar is open for customers. Overall, I think it’s a great place to have a relaxed meal.

If you’re looking for a spot to get a quick sushi fix, try Ishushi in Kearny Mesa. The sushi is really colorful with amazing presentations. It tastes fresh and looks exciting to eat. The portion sizes are very large too so ordering just a few rolls will already get you full. The restaurant is really spacious and has it’s own private dining rooms for special ocassions. The waiters are really friendly as well. The ambience is casual and the decor is very simple yet modern. You can bring however many friends or family you want to here, I’m sure they’ll be able to accomodate a large group.

Sushiya in Otay Ranch

Sushiya prices are reasonable in that it has great quality with a good amount of portions. The presentation is elegant and really fresh. The ambience is very relaxing as it has a waterfall decor on the wall. It also has a sushi bar for those that want that extra sushi experience. I would say it’s great for a group of friends, family, or a romantic dinner. The great thing about this restaurant is that it’s open all week from 11:00 am to 10:00 pm, so whenever you’re craving some sushi, they got you covered. You can also call ahead of time to order and it’ll be ready within the hour.

Chiba Japanese in Mission Valley

The prices at Chiba Japanese are extremely affordable. Salmon Sashimi is always expensive on menus. I’m used to seeing them above 10$, but as Sapporo, it’s only $6. I ordered two other rolls at reasonable prices and two beverages. The total cost of the meal was $15. $15!!! Even though it was cheap, the quality was surprisingly good for what I paid for. The ambience is very casual, there’s no need to be proper or formal in any way. You’ll be greeted by the chefs themselves behind the bar as you enter. One side of the wall is a cupboard full of stacks of plates and interesting Japanese decor. Although the restaurant is small, it’s really lively. On that note, I suggest brining along one or two friends here for lunch or dinner.
