★★★☆☆ 3.0 Richard Farace · Feb 2026

Just not that good of sushi restaurant. Not much more to say. Rice had no flavor, mushy in the mouth. Had salmon on my Rainbow Roll tasted off. Kind of a Escondido inspired sushi/japanese menu and flavor. The menu does not state that they use imitation crab.

First time going in to fry this place as searched in my phone when I was in the area. The first thing is that it's pretty nice inside and decoration is comfy. Was greeted and seated inside, lady was casual and patient but seemed tired. The food was Amazon and everything taste so good. The prices did change as it went up to 18 plus sushi rolls now from what people posted online. The edamame was dry and like it was sitting there and warmed up in the microwave. The noodles were really good.

★★★★★ 5.0 Drew and Aglae Candelaria · Jan 2026

Great place! Great atmosphere. Our go-to. The service is great. We've gone here on date night and family nights and we have a great time. Sushi is fresh and delicious. We also like that this is one of the place that takes the Synergy Cards.

★★★★★ 5.0 Erik Aguon · Jun 2025

To be honest, we weren't expecting too much from here. Boy, we were pleasantly surprised. The food is DELICIOUS. Nigiri. Oyster Shooters. Citrus Yellowtail. Green Lip Mussels. Hamachi Kama. Poke Bowl. Tempura Ice Cream. w0W! w0W! w0W! Do NOT sleep on this place. This is now our HAPPY PLACE for Japanese Food in Escondido!

★★★☆☆ 3.0 Greg Harabedian · Feb 2026

Service was actually pretty good. The food was very middle of the road. Don't get me wrong...not bad but not great. The fish was not super tasty or fresh. You could do worse going someplace else but it's rather spend a bit more to get a really good product.
