Sushi

1. Sushi Diner

Neighborhood: Clairemont

I love me some Sushi Diner!  I've been here a couple times, as it's right close to my house, and MAN. Good stuff.   The owner, Daisuke, is also the sushi chef - he's super nice, and makes yummy spicy...

2. Sushi Ota

Been here once based on Yelp reviews.  This place doesn't disappoint, and to be frank its one of the best sushi places I have been this side of the Pacific.   Very good fish - decent sake menu...

3. Ono's Cafe

Neighborhood: Chula Vista

hour, or he's gonn have to get a second job!  A bit pricey for dinner, especially sushi rolls, but I love the decor and ambience, and service has always been wonderful. They don't rush you through...

4. Mitsuwa Marketplace

Neighborhood: Kearny Mesa

in the deli section*Yummy Fish and Sushi*  I would prefer Nijiya's deli selection over Mitsuwa's any day, but lots of interesting household goodies sold in the back of the grocery store as well.  Xx...

5. Taka

Neighborhood: East Village

I've had better sushi at King's Fish House.  The host was delightful but nothing about the food stands out.  Would not go again....

Sake

1. Sushi Deli 2

Neighborhood: Gaslamp

your $5.50 large sapporo small sake bottle combo and chill out.  It's busy because it's worth the wait!...

2. Yakitori Yakyudori

Neighborhood: Hillcrest

Great food--beef sticks are fantastic  Service was WEIRD. We were very neglected and she forgot an order.   Poridge very good, chicken thighs very good. Sake pretty good---good selection.  Will go...

3. Tokyo Sushi Loha

group, be prepared to wait awhile because the place isnt that big.   If you like loud music and sake bombs, you should check this place out. The owner Kenny is a cool guy so be sure to take a sake bomb...

4. Ichiban on the Rocks

Neighborhood: Hillcrest

We came over here because the Ichiban across was closed when we came out of class one night. We still trek in once in a while mostly during happy hour. They have tasty flavored cold sakes...

5. Sushi Deli One

Neighborhood: Hillcrest

Sushi is good and ridiculously cheap--but fresh. Sadly, there is a limited sake list. But, the crazy milk they do have is not bad....
