    Puglife! Dog friendly.

    Loved this spot while visiting Puerto Nuevo. Great beer and food. Got the tacos to go and they didn't disappoint. Service was prompt and friendly. Fun crowd and dog friendly. Great vibes.

    This is, by far, the most amazing mole poblano that we have ever had. We went back on Thursday for lunch after trying it on Tuesday for dinner. My partner, who usually doesn't care for kombucha, had the gengibre (ginger) kombucha and liked it. Their salsa is sweeter and more tomato-y and less spicy than other places, which was a plus. The outdoor patio is really nice, with excellent sunset views. First visit, I had Peruvian ceviche (very tasty), while on the second visit, I opted for some sushi (amazing, amazing crab rolls) and a poke bowl. They were great with making the dishes the way we wanted (hold the rice). Service was fine on Tuesday, and outstanding today. Would definitely recommend.

    Unfortunately I'm not a seafood person and and I'm unable to drink at the moment so my review is purely based off of my experience. This place has nice open seating both indoor and outdoor, live music on weekends, and has a nice brewery like feel. The food is primarily seafood with a couple vegetarian options and meat options. I was lucky enough they had mole which was delicious. Great for a large group.

    Good food well made drinks. The tuna sashimi was fresh, the upstairs patio was warm and sunny. Would stop by again.

    Mezcalitas are so good and the surf and turf tacos are my go too. Great spot all day indoor and outdoor seating.

    Awesome spot walking distance from Las Gaviotas. We sat outside to enjoy the view and the night sky. There was also live music, a solo artist singing and playing his guitar. Live music, good food, strong margaritas what more can a girl ask for? My youngest ordered the fish bites off of the kids menu and it was enough for two kids, very generous. I had a delicious poke bowl. I don't remember what my husband or oldest daughter ordered but I do remember that they enjoyed their meals. Come here for good food, cold beer, yummy margaritas and a chill ambience. Definitely coming back.

    Very cute spot with good parking. Amazing micheladas. Food was good but the hand rolls weren't very flavorful. Agua Chile was super flavorful and the sushi rolls were yummy, great spot for big groups

    Person 1 Review: Honestly, very mid in terms of tacos and sushi. If you were to order something, get the tacos. Sushi was incredibly lacking in terms of flavor, it was essentially bland without any soy sauce. The crab wasn't great. Tacos could do with more salsa. They are a good size and filling, but again, were lacking. I had the shrimp tacos and they really would be elevated if there was more salsa or flavor. Shrimp itself was tasty. Person 2 Review: Tacos without the chile weren't that spicy. As someone who cannot handle spice it was pretty decent.

    The most incredible handrolls I've ever had!! Yellow tail, Bluefin, and real crab. I believe they source their fish locally every morning so makes sense. Had a frozen strawberry marg and they used real strawberries, no artificial stuff - YUM. My friend got Chef Giany's gourmet shrimp tacos and they were beyond delicious too. The space is beautiful and the people are super kind and friendly. I went in the middle of the week and it was calm and super enjoyable. I really don't think you can go wrong eating here, lots of great choices on the menu. I found myself wishing I had time to come back again and again!

    I just absolutely love this place. As a vegan, missing sushi has been a challenge. I really really miss it. Lol. This place gives me back my sushi. They have a few things on the menu; a vegan menu & all of it is worth it. The service is hit or miss, although he sure to ask for Sergio. He is the head bar manager & is always making sure that tables are taken care of. As long as your intention is to go there to relax & enjoy as the food & drinks come out, you are set. I went with several friends that ordered off the regular menu & WOW. It looked & they said it tasted amazing. They even use white ginger & have. Sriracha along with some other wonderful hot sauces. Portions are nice size, especially if you order the tacos. Omg it's even bigger than what I'm used too. Lol. They also have one of the best views in the area & a massive outdoor space for live music on the weekends. Love you guys! See you soon!

    Crab hand roll

    I want to start by saying that the ambiance here is so nice- we sat outside and there was live music, string lights and they lit some bonfires. Their staff is also lovely. I saw all of the great reviews and had such high hopes. I think if we were just coming for the vibe and drinks it would be 5 stars. We just had some really average food. We tried the bluefin poke bowl, a crab hand roll, and the Hawaiian burger. The poke bowl had no flavor to it at all, just super bland. The crab roll was really dry and also had no flavor. The burger was a little better but still just pretty average! We did enjoy our drinks- I tried a sour, the kombucha and my boyfriend had a light beer. No complaints in regards to drinks! Maybe we just ordered the wrong things? I'd still say it's worth dropping by for the drinks and ambiance.

    Super bland blackened yellowtail fish tacos
    Shane K.

    The service was very slow, close to an hour for us to get 2 plates of fish tacos. Not their fault it was busy, my complaint really is the how bland everything was. The spicy fish tacos were super bland and the blackened yellowtail was flavorless. The fish was way over cooked and dry. The pineapple they used was as bland as a potato. The prices are San Diego prices for MX which def threw us off. Normally when you're hungry everything tastes good, but we were disappointed at all the positive reviews. I'd def pass on this place.

    The most incredible dining experience! ! My partner surprised me for our anniversary and it was…read moreamazing not knowing what dish was next. Being in the moment and listening to the chefs explain each dish was so exciting. Everything is locally caught and some flavored to perfection. Even the sake, high recommended to pair with the Japanese lager. Everything was perfect ! I had mentioned I don't eat dairy so I got a different dessert than my boyfriend. It was the most delicious ending to an epic meal. I honestly can't wait to get back home and tell all my friends and family about it. The place was right next to a tree covered by tree branches it was truly a beautiful design. The server and chefs were so kind and well informed. Really tied in the experience.

    It doesn't get much better than this…read more.. Booked Baja Omakase a couple of months in advance as I wanted to ensure this happened at our next Valle trip. We arrived at the location (tucked away) off the main road. Like a lot of the good things in Valle I suppose. We soon realized we were the only two dining with the chef this night. Which meant full attention full service just for the two of us. Talk about a treat. Our waiter mentioned how the omakase would work and soon started us with drinks and water. What came after was a dream, a full experience of tastes, and adventure, and exquisiteness. A really good selection of fish from the local Ensenada region. I was in awe every time a new dish come out. I lost count, and found myself trying to savor every moment every bite, and then having a moment of clarity and asking "what course are we on?" "how many are left?" I didn't worry to much as every single stage of omakase was magnificent, beautifully presented and something I highly suggest you do, if you have the opportunity to. If you get lucky and end of being the only customers for night, take advantage of it. As, opportunities like this, are rare. TOSHI is the best!

    Overall, the experience was great and I will be coming back! LOVED THE SUPER SALMON. Absolutely…read moredelicious and will get again. The miso soup was some of the best soup I have ever had!!! The salad dressing was pretty disgusting. I'm not sure if it was "bad" or something but it had a very rancid taste and smell. I even had my sister and mom try it and they said something was off. The salad was actually the whole reason I tried the place so I was a little disappointed. I wish I could have tried the great salad I read so many news about but I will probably not take a chance again. Will be back for the sushi though. Just maybe don't get their salad.

    The food was excellent, but unfortunately the service was very disappointing…read more We visited on a Saturday night, and the restaurant was not busy at all. There appeared to be four servers on the floor, yet most of the time they were standing around while only one seemed to be actively attending tables. After being seated, we waited approximately 10 minutes before anyone offered us water. Fortunately, we received menus right away, which allowed us to place our food order at the same time our server finally came to take our drink order. Throughout the meal, our server was largely absent. To make matters worse, the main dish I specifically came to order was forgotten. When I reminded our server, she assured me it would be out shortly. Fifteen minutes later, after my wife and I had already finished our roll, I asked to cancel the missing dish. Once again, I was told it was almost ready. The item I ordered should not have taken nearly an hour to prepare, and it became clear that the order had been forgotten entirely. What made the experience even more frustrating was that the restaurant remained slow the entire evening, with several servers standing around and no obvious reason for the long waits for drinks and service. The food itself was great, but the poor service significantly detracted from the overall experience. Very disappointing.

    Akari Sushi is an absolute gem tucked away in a quiet pocket of La Jolla. As longtime fans of SoCal…read moresushi (we've spent years eating our way through the Normal Heights menu ), we don't say this lightly: this place hits. The fish is incredibly fresh, high quality, and thoughtfully prepared -- and Chef Goody's menu absolutely slaps. I'd love to give specific recommendations, but truly we've been blown away by everything on the menu. You can't go wrong. Definitely peep at their daily specials list, too. Service is fantastic and friendly. The chefs are happy to chat, and always make excellent recommendations if you're unsure what to order. It feels welcoming without losing that elevated, special-occasion energy. Perfect for a date night, but also surprisingly accommodating for kids, which makes it an easy go-to whether you're celebrating or just craving really good sushi. It's one of those spots you almost don't want to tell people about... but you also don't want anyone to miss out. If you want top-tier sushi in La Jolla, this is it.

    GOOD SUSHI IN LA JOLLA (4.3 stars)…read more - FOOD: pretty good; very fresh fish - PRICE: fair - SERVICE: excellent - AMBIANCE: quaint sushi restaurant (which I like; nice and quiet and chill) I knew something about the execution was familiar. I didn't know it until after eating there and reading a review that this is the sister location of So Cal Sushi (in Normal Heights) and after comparing the menus it made sense! What stood out to me when I knew nothing about this restaurant was that spicy tuna is in majority of their speciality rolls and after tasting it I had thought 'this seems familiar' - sometimes spicy tuna (in anything) can be overdone, played out, or not really cared for. Same thought when I first ate at the sister restaurant in Normal Heights when they first opened years ago - too much of it. But overall execution of the meal was good. :: ORDER :: MISO SOUP ($3.95) - served with wakame, negi, and tofu. average/typical. KURODAI ($9.25) - they have rotation fish list and saw an offering of Kurodai and had to try it. First of all, my favorite is Nodoguro but they didn't have that and was told closest to that was Kurodai. Honestly, I thought differently - didn't really come close to Nodoguro but Kurodai is also a nice cut of fish. The texture was somewhat firm and the taste was light and clean in flavor with a little subtle ending taste of faint sweetness. The fish was extremely fresh and you can taste it immediately. HIGHLY RECOMMEND CITRUS BLISS ROLL ($21.95) - spicy tuna, krab, and cucumber. Topped with salmon, avocado, spicy mayo, crunchies, and unagi sauce. I loved how they make the rolls - not too much rice nor dense packing, very tender and soft roll, easy to consume and eat more without feeling full, and the perfect amount of cut rolls per serving. You can taste the spicy, little bit of creamy, and a good amount of citrus... and if you dunk the roll in soy sauce you get the salty. It is a good roll if you like spicy and citrus - for me I like citrus more than spicy. The roll was good I ate everything, BUT I do feel there could be some improvements. I know people love spicy but when it comes to raw fish - that needs to shine in the sushi. yes tuna is basic but overkilling the flavor to make it spicy isn't for everyone (as it's in nearly every speciality roll). I would recommend lowering the spicy in the tuna because it already has spicy mayo included + it allows the customer to control their spicy level. The sriracha takes over the taste and when eating sushi the spicy for me should come from the wasabi (not soaking good quality fish in a sriracha bath). I wish they also offered their rolls with regular tuna instead of spicy tuna. I will def be back! Overall great place. Until the next bite...
