CHIRASHI BOWL
Sydney H.

Great experience ordering through uber eats! Got the chirashi bowl and seaweed salad. The chirashi was awesome - the fish was very fresh and high quality, and there was a good amount of it. It tasted great. The seaweed salad was also good (hard to go wrong). Would definitely order again.

Yellowtail carpaccio
Jasmine C.

I had seen this place when they opened since I live in the neighborhood but finally got to try it and the service was good. They brought out our drinks right away once we ordered and the food came out at a nice pace. I am always worried with going to a new sushi spot and happy to say the fish was fresh. We really enjoyed the yellowtail carpaccio as well as the variety of nigiri. The roll was also enjoyable and the Kama. I would definitely like to come back when I have the craving.

Channel Roll (front) and Mango Tango Roll (back)
Toni L.

Positive experience each time. We live in the neighborhood and love that Dragon Sushi opens semi-late, and is rarely crowded, especially for a sushi restaurant. Like others have been saying, it is inexpensive, and does the job. Service is friendly and attentive. I highly recommend: - kama (fish collar, cooked) usually $18-22+ at other Japanese restaurants, here it's $12, and the portion is great. Fish is tender and flaky. - half seaweed half cucumber salad (seasoned to perfection, a light and refreshing appetizer). - baked mussels (dressed with tobiko, baked with sriracha mayo). - Rolls: Channel roll, Lemon Drop, Wilson Ave roll. They seem to lean heavily towards a crunchy roll base (shrimp tempura and krab on the inside) then the toppings are where the rolls get individualized. - Yellowtail is nice and fresh here. - Spicy tuna is on the spicier side. I ordered a poke bowl once and wasn't impressed. It wasn't that the salmon wasn't fresh, that part was fine. I just felt that the bowl was kind of boring. And I love sushi rice but there was too much rice and not enough other toppings.

SALMON MAKI ROLL
Stephanie S.

Ordered a salmon maki and shrimp tempura hand roll for lunch one day. I live around the corner and have been wanting to give them a chance for a while. Didn't get a chance to chat with anyone or stay long but it seemed pretty chill and relaxing. No loud music blaring like some other sushi places. Unfortunately not the best rolls on my salmon maki and the shrimp tempura looks like mostly krab. Price was banging and the salmon didn't taste off so I'll definitely come back when I'm craving food since I live walking distance.

Part of the NIGIRI COMBO. Does that look edible to you?

Portions are great here, but at least three pieces of my nigiri are old and dry. And it would be great if they can find some music that isn't so loud and hard core. It was difficult to even hear my friend.

Philly with tuna and salmon top
Jessica G.

Wow! Came here on a whim, really positive experience. Garlic edamame was so fresh and flavorful, the cooked it on the spot and you could smell it! So delicious. I had the mango dragon cucumber wrapped- the sweet mango sauce was delicious, the whole roll was delicious My husband had the spicy amigo roll and he loved it. He say the ingredients were tremendous and fresh. He truly enjoyed it. My daughter had the shrimp crunch, she say it was flavorful and eel sauce and the crunch tied it together. Overall delicious. Service was friendly, restaurant is brand knew and clean. Definitely recommend!!

Top to bottom I ordered Salmon, Tune and Blue Fin Tuna. Excellent!

I am from 100 miles away to the north. was visiting and decied to try DRAGON SUSHI. Excellent quality and they do not skimp as I ordered the blue fin tune nigiri. They cut the meats thick and fresh. I also ordered the Salmon and Eel. I stringly recommended this place!

Suite front
Emmett T.

The owners of Brothers Mexican Restaurant in Normal Heights have opened Dragon Sushi in the next door suite that used to house an ice cream shop/juice bar. Seating was limited to about two dozen customers. The two-page menu was pretty typical sushi fare with classic rolls, hand rolls, special/specialty rolls, bento boxes, bowls, nigiri, and sashimi as the main categories. A monthly special was offered which on this occasion was a 16-piece roll combo for $20. It was made up of four different types of rolls. There were ten specialty rolls that were priced between $16 and $18 apiece. My two choices were the Angry Roll and Goodnight Roll which were cut into eight pieces. The first was made up of salmon, eel, gobo (burdock root), cucumber, and avocado topped with red snapper, jalapeno, onion, and ponzu sauce. The second consisted of bluefin tuna, gobo, cucumber, and green onion topped with escolar, avocado, sriracha, house alba sauce, onion, and cilantro. My first impression of these two rolls was that a lot of cilantro covered the products to the point it was difficult to distinguish the cut pieces. The Goodnight Roll was a little better because of the zing from the sriracha. I can't really say the fishes were top quality, but they tasted fresh. If you live in this neighborhood and are seeking a quick sushi fix, then Dragon Sushi should fulfill that desire.

Came by for my lunch and decided to try this mango roll it was very delicious and filling. The sauces are made from scratch and they were very friendly. Cant wait to bring my wife to enjoy this lovely spot together!

The Breona Special
Breona W.

Best vegetarian(ish) sushi roll I've ever had. Simple but so delicious: tofu, avocado, cucumber roll topped with spicy mayo and eel sauce. I love this place I go here multiple times a week and they also have a buy 2 get 1 free happy hour. I love love LOVE this place and the owners and employees are so nice and they always remember my name.

Sushi was amazing and so was desert! Perfect spot if you're craving sushi or sea food! Service was really good and everyone was really friendly. The ambiance was great too.

JUNE SPECIAL COMBO 16 PC
Karen C.

Solid sushi joint. Lots of different rolls at a reasonable price point. They are fairly new (ie past 6 months). I got 4 pieces of 4 different rolls for $20 which was a good way to try different things. The fish was reasonably fresh

This is not an authentic sushi restaurant. It seems as those they just learned to make sushi and decided to open a restaurant.. the vibe isnt right and neither is the sushi. Very mushy and the ratios were off on what was put inside. I asked if there was fired shrimp in my roll and was told no all for me to bite into fried shrimp. Unacceptable. Wasn't offered help, discount or any care.

Inside the restaurant. Very casual unassuming place, quiet, very nice wait staff, and GREAT quality fish.

Great place! I got the tuna melt and it was fresh. Beware places that only use tuna/mayo spackle…read more But this is not that kind of place! I can tell by the red onion it had chopped and mixed into the tuna. That doesn't store long so I can tell the tuna has a fast turnover rate. Their sesame noodles are fantastic too! A must try. The other person got the wasabi roast beef sandwich which they loved as well. Both sandwiches had the right balance of bread/fillings. Stoked I found a new sandwich spot. Service was friendly and prompt.

I stopped by here this past Monday for lunch as part of a party of eight. We were in Balboa Park,…read moreand I was looking for a fast-casual type of place when BFG came up, so we headed on over. This restaurant has both indoor and outdoor seating, with giant menus on the wall inside as well as a cooler case. You place your order, and then they bring it out to you. We decided to sit inside, so while I think the outside tables may have had fire pits, I can't actually confirm that. My daughter and I ended up getting there first, and she was hungry, so I ordered the Basic for her while I went with the Buffalo Chicken Sandwich. Mine was described as roast chicken, Point Reyes blue cheese, Fresno chili hot sauce, red onion, carrot, cabbage, lettuce, garlic aioli, and ciabatta, while my daughter's was described as a fluffy three-egg patty topped with cheddar cheese on ciabatta. Service was pretty quick, and I think we had our food within about ten minutes of ordering. My daughter enjoyed the egg sandwich and almost completely finished it by herself, which is saying something. The cheese was melted nicely and had a good pull to it. Then my chicken sandwich ended up being pretty good as well. The chicken was tender, and the hot sauce was flavorful, albeit not as spicy as I was expecting from a Fresno chili hot sauce. I also enjoyed the slaw and aioli and thought the ciabatta was solid as well. My wife also enjoyed her sesame chicken salad here, especially the chicken, while my son ate some of his kids' grilled cheese. The bottom line for me is that I would stop by here again in the future. Our food here was good, and I appreciated not only the fast-casual nature of the restaurant but the price as well.

The staff was great and explained the dishes in a way that made you want to try everything on the menu. I'm sad that Common Table closed, but I'll be sure to check out the owner's other venture the next time I'm in town.

Bossam Spring Rolls: Bossam is typically eaten with a bunch of toppings in a lettuce wrap so they've taken that and put everything together into a spring roll. The pork belly flavor was great but since I can't really handle spicy, I had to pick at the jalapeños. For dip, instead of a peanut sauce, they had a ssamjang sauce. Fried Shishitous: Pretty average appetizer dish to share. They tasted great and luckily, no one got an extremely spicy one. Pretzels with Miso Beer Cheese: The miso beer cheese sounded so interesting and was why we decided to try it. The pretzel was average and unfortunately, the beer cheese was very clumpy. The head chef came out and mentioned that this was something they were having trouble with and I hope they've figured it out! Katsu Sando: I was most excited to try this and it ended up being my favorite! The katsu was super crispy and juicy. No complaints here! Longanisa Burger: We liked everything except for the guacamole, which felt a little out of place. I didn't even realize that there was a yuzu cream because it kind of just blended in with the guac. We mentioned to the head chef that it might be better if there were some crispy onions for texture and that would fit a bit better with the Filipino theme of the burger. Chashu Tacos: Comes with 3 pieces. Not sure if the flavor is comparable to chashu but it was good. Adobo Loaded Fries: We chose adobo as the meat since we already had the other protein options in other dishes. I think they nailed the adobo meat and flavor for the fries but I didn't necessarily think it was the best pairing with fries. Or I wish it was a bit more saucy so the fries could get some of that adobo flavor too. This is their first brick and mortar store and I hope they succeed! The head chef/owner came out and asked us if there was anything that could've been better and he seemed very receptive to our ideas.

Coming back to send my love to my favorite sub place…read more I've sadly moved to a different part of town so Fatboy's is no longer a few blocks away. I still try to stop by every few months as this place holds a special place in my heart. A no frills spot. Solid and consistent. To the point but friendly customer service. Fantastic drink, chip and snack selection. Sandwiches are always bomb asf. The hot momma and BLT loaded up is my favorite. My husband still loves their Ruben (it is his favorite place to get it.) You get a small potato or macaroni salad on the side with a pickle (perfect crunch.) I personally think it's a great little add on. Their chili is also simple but delicious. I personally think their chili pairs perfectly with any of their sandwiches. It's not a heavy thick chili. Which is why I think it pairs so well. I won't lie it's a bit pricey but you get what you pay for. It's loaded up and good quality. I never feel gross or overly bloated after eating here. I will be coming back to Fatboy's until I move out of San Diego or die. lol. One of my favorite gems in SD. Always will be worth the drive or walk. Thank you for always delivering even years later.

I used to frequent Fatboy's because it was close and convenient for a long time, but I am rarely able to visit anymore... parking is a bigger challenge every day in North Park, and finding even a 15-minute spot takes way longer than the drive for me now (but the walk is too far to pick up a quick meal). Today I was down the street for something else so decided to order a sandwich. I was excited, then my jaw dropped when I saw the price increases. It's $18 for the North Park Club now, with no extras. I already had a hard time justifying $15 for a sandwich but I'm officially, 100% priced out now. I know it's not necessarily on the business owners; rent is exorbitant in NP, profit margins are small in the food service industry, and operating costs are high. Our city is eating itself alive, but thank you for the years of sandwiches!
