The service and atmosphere here is great! Very fun and modern. Great for a hang out session with friends or family. The specialty rolls are very unique. This isn't just basic sushi rolls with a special sauce. They really know how to blend different flavors together to create delicious concoctions! For appetizers I got the monkey brains and my wife ordered the pork and vegetable gyoza. Both dishes were fantastic! The monkey brains were basically mushrooms stuffed with spicy tuna. It had a crunchy tempura coating on the outside. It was terrific. My wife loved her gyoza. For our entrees my wife had the orange crush roll and I had the sea spider. Both specialty rolls were unique and exploding with flavor! We were with my brother and sister in law. They loved their entrees and apps as well. My brother thoroughly enjoyed his blackberry mule. He also ordered a vegan roll and was blown away by how good it tasted. And my two year old niece had the time of her life playing with the orchards that come with each entree. If you're in Oceanside and you like sushi, this is a must visit restaurant! read more

Food was great. We ordered fast and within a few minutes my sushi entree was out. However we ordered crab wontons (delicious ) and miso soup. The order came out with sushi first, then appetizer wontons, then miso soup. My friend's bento box meal came out about 10-15 minutes after the wontons. I was waiting for my friend's meal, so the sushi sat for 20+ minutes. I also waited about 15 minutes for drink refills, I eventually went to the bar for a refill. Both of our meals were yummy. read more

We came for Mother's Day lunch, poor service, food was crappy, the menu was sticky. All indications that this is a badly managed dining establishment. It took the server 30 minutes to get our bill adjudicated. People were coming in and leaving after they have sat for 15 minutes without being served, they just don't have enough servers or they are improperly trained. Added to our misery is the parking at downtown Oside is just horrid. Take your business and your hard earned money someplace else. read more

Im not sure why this is rated 4 stars, I would rate it 5 stars!!! This place is conveniently located, great ambience, awesome service, best fish quality, and reasonably priced. Chef's special sashimi was amazing and so was the pirate roll. Natalie was attentive and friendly. We will be back!! Thank you!!! My 3 girls loved this place as well read more

We love Harneys and visit often. Some favorites are the Happy Yellowtail sashimi along with the Diablo Roll. Gyoza is fabulous and you can order it steamed or fried. Natalie is the best and has taken care of us a few time. She is so sweet and attentive, always maintaining a high level of professionalism and service. I recommend checking this place out on a Friday when there is a DJ, it created a super fun ambience. 10/10 recommend read more

Food, ambiance, and service is absolutely perfect. It is calm, cool, and dark inside, with candles and outside lighting. Music is quiet and patrons are chill. Not too busy in the afternoon, just the right amount of folks. Great location just a few blocks away from the beach. Natalie was our server and she was very attentive, gave great feedback about the menu, and quick and friendly to top off waters and made us feel so welcome. The food was very delicious and fresh, with cool names for the rolls like James Bond and chuck Norris rolls. Looking forward to coming back soon!! read more

Came in for an early dinner at 5 pm and there was already a wait. Make sure to have reservations or dine in the patio area. The service was quick and attentive. Ordered the salmon sashimi, rice and 2 nigiri sets. It was perfect! Make reservations for come early for a weekend dinner. Otherwise the wait will be about 20-30 mins for a party of 4, even before 6 pm. read more

Harney Oceanside - Premium nigiri set - delicious. - Sushi Bars Near Me - Oceanside, California

Pretty ok sushi, the art on the walls is cool, but terrible service. I don't know if it is poor training, bad compensation leading to high turnover, poor floor management, poor communication with the kitchen, or what. I have been here three times and have had multiple orders forgotten (but still show up on the bill) or show up so late that everyone else in the party has already eaten and gets to watch someone awkwardly eat their food. Feels like a tourist trap. There is better sushi for better prices and with better service elsewhere. read more

This place had a whole vegan page to order from it was so hard to decide. I was with an Omni and vegetarians they ordered a plethora of the sushi's and sashimis and so many appies I can't list all the variants they could write their own review but I did share a picture. I went with the 2 vegan specialty rolls. They were the perfect bite for me served with the favs cucumber and seaweed salad. The lychee drink was super refreshing. The rolls were HUGE keep that in mind very worth the monies. read more

These sushi rolls taste very fresh. There is a variety of options, but the prices are a bit high. The waitresses are very sweet and they checked in on us often. The vibe is great in this trendy decorated sushi place. read more

This place has a very cool, trendy vibe and is near the beach. Love the decor. They offer a great variety of sushi options as well as other options for non sushi people. Started with the crab wontons and spicy garlic edamame. Both were very good, not too spicy or too garlicky. Our party a variety of sushi, cucumber salad (yum!), udon soup and teriyaki chicken. All was very good, a little pricey but it was a special occasion! Service was average. read more

Just ate here today.......usually our go to place for last 15 years.... I got the Osider roll which used to make me full on its own. Tonight and last months visit, roll was undersized w virtually no topping (steak) and a small sprinkle of onions. It was mostly cheap imitation crab and drowning in cheap chili sauce. I honestly wouldn't pay over $10 for the roll anywhere. I added a salmon roll to the order which all 8 pieces were cut different sizes and half missing salmon and avocado- only rice present. The Sapporo beer was the only thing that was good and I half expected them to bring me one that was half alreaenjoyed by a prior customer ..... they are getting so cheap- for the $140 we spent for lunch on two people, we may never come back after being loyal customers for 15 years. read more

We happened upon this place for a late lunch which was fortunately during happy hour. We sat outside and our server was a doll with good recommendations. We got shisito peppers and most things from the happy hour menu, including some yummy draft beer I had never heard of which had an interesting herbal aftertaste and smell. read more

Ambiance was good, service was good, food was delish! I would definitely visit again. Perfect amount of food/portions.

We've been here multiple times now and most recently decided to come for my birthday. Service was good, food was good until they decided to be dishonest with the sushi. We ordered black cod 2x, it wasn't until the second order that I realized that something just wasn't right. I realized they tried to pass eel for black cod. We asked the server and she confirmed they had "ran out" of black cod so they just decided to substitute it with eel without asking or telling us. Now it's making me question every time we've been here. Dishonesty is NOT a good quality in a restaurant. read more

Went once on a (not very busy) Friday for dinner. Appetizer took way too long to get to our table. Drinks were not refilled. Saw 2 huge cockroaches crawling across the restaurant. The middle of the floor. One made it to our table, went underneath, while a hostess watched and just said "I'm sorry". During the time waiting for our food leading up to this I noticed its dimly lit and rather unkept all over. This has been mentioned in other reviews I've seen. I do believe this is a clear depiction of the attitude of the whole place and imagine the kitchen and how they are preparing the food would be unacceptable as well. I wouldn't want anyone to have the same experience as us. Honestly, gross. We explained the very frustrations and left. read more

Ultimately, disappointing. We moved to Oceanside this year and have gone to Harney multiple times to get my wife her sushi fix. We won't be returning, unfortunately. We came in and were promptly seated (fantastic service by the hostess). From there, it went downhill. We asked for the menus; our waitress then came by maybe a minute later and we ordered a drink and app. We then didn't see our waitress again until the end of the meal (we ended up needing to order from the person that brought our app). My wife ordered the chef's special (9 piece Nigiri) and I ordered the the terriyaki steak bento box (wanted to try something new tonight). About 20 minutes later my wife's Nigiri came out, but not my bento box. Not to worry, steak takes longer to cook. My wife then ate her entree, her entire entree, while I sat there waiting for my entree. It didn't come. The waitress then reappears, asking if we want to order anything else before she gives us the check. We say no, I ordered an entree that never came, but they should just take it off the check and we'll be on our way. The waitress looks shocked and comes back a few minutes later, with my bento box, complete with stone-cold steak. I am surprised that they'd try to serve this to me and send it back, asking for them to take it off the check. The manager then comes out and says they will box the food up and give it to me half-off. And this is where they lost me. Why would I want to pay for cold food at a restaurant where my bill will already be over $100 with the tip. I ask them once again to just the item off the check, which they do, I pay, tip; and leave. They tried to apologize and say the kitchen was slammed, but the place was maybe half full and that would explain the steak coming out late, not cold. The service overall was disjointed and nobody checked in on us to check on the quality of the food (which would have been a perfect way for us to be able to ask about my bento box during the meal). It felt like our waitress was actively avoiding looking in our direction the entire meal. Both weird and disappointing when you are planning on dropping over $100 on a meal. Not the end of the world, but a good indicator that this place is not for us. There are plenty of similarly priced sushi spots in the area with better service, better ambiance, and, honestly, better food. read more

Awesome service. The place was packed and we got seated immediately. Our server was Natalie and she was awesome. They were at the table as soon as we sat down. We ordered appetizers, sushi rolls, and main dishes and it all came fast and as soon as we finished on portion the next one came almost instantly despite it being very busy on a Friday evening at dinner. The food was amazing as well and fairly priced. read more

Meh, we were excited to try this place, we waited 30 mins for a table, should have left. Ordered the miso soup and sassy salmon roll the first round. Miso soup was so salty, it was grainy as hell. Either they didn't stir the pot up or the ratio is off. Sassy salmon should have been called sassy onions, good God, the rolls had more onions than anything. Rolls are also big which means the majority of it was rice. Salmon color looked pale as well except for the rainbow sushi roll. The friends ordered some beer and they said it wasn't even cold -_- We ended up putting in a second order which they forgot to put in so we sat there for a good 30 mins until she realized it wasn't out, we should have cancelled it, I got full while waiting. read more

6$ for the tiniest bowl of miso soup, that they didn't even bother to fill up more than halfway. Wish I could provide a photo. What an embarrassment. We just got the soup then left to go somewhere else. Wont lie, at least it tasted pretty good. read more

Great happy hour spot! You can't beat the fish quality meets price proportion for happy hour nigiri and I never would have tried the jalepeno poppers stuffed with crab and avocado and deep friend, to be honest sounds gross but wow these surprised me, super good!

Oddly enough I don't eat sushi BUT I come here for their calamari and chicken fried rice. The calamari is by far the best I've ever had and the sweet chili sauce they serve it with is so yummy! The chicken fried rice isn't anything special but it's good and when you put some of the sweet chili sauce on it, it's even better! read more

Had a bigger party and we were lucky enough to get a private little room in the back. Definitely recommend getting the room if you can...adds a little special touch. Our server, Natalie, was fantastic...she made a few recommendations that were great. She was on her game and was awesome!! We had 6 or 7 different specialty rolls in addition to 3 apps. Everything was so great. The drinks were fantastic, the lychee sake was on the sweet side but very good. I honestly can't say anything bad...service, food and ambiance all top notch. I look forward to returning!!!! read more

We staydd in Ocean side overnight and the family wanted sushi. We looked around and decided to check this place out. When we arrived there was a wait about 25 minutes. This place kinda felt like you where going to a club. It was dark and music was loud. You'll need to kinda talk loud to each other to be heard. When we sat they took our drink orders. However it took them a while to get our food orders cause they looked a little understaffed which is understandable given these days. We ordered a bunch of different rolls for they seemed to have an exciting menu. To be honest I forgot the names of the tolls we ordered LOL. Our rolls started arriving probably about 2 at a time and we devoured them as they came haha. There was one or 2 rolls we really enjoyed but the rest was only ok. If you are looking to come to a place that feels like a club this is the place for you. My Rating:4.05 Food 3.75/5 Staff 4.5/5 Price 3.75/5 Restaurant 4.5/5 Cleanliness 4.5/5 read more

We stumbled upon this place while wandering after our 5k run. This place is a little more upscale but super cozy feeling. We had an awesome waitress (Theresa) that made excellent recommendations. Both of the special rolls (the pirate and the spider) were absolutely delicious. We also had the spicy garlic edamame and it was the perfect balance of spice and garlic. They had a very affordable happy hour menu for this that can make it during those times. Four stars because the nigiri rice was a little stiff and not as soft as sushi rice typically is. Overall the portions were great and the price was reasonable. Shout out again to our waitress for being amazing. She made the experience worth it for us. read more

Perfect spot for an early weekend happy hour! Every item we tried on the happy hour menu was absolutely delicious, and for the price you can't beat it. As for the speciality rolls, starting with the Bruce Lee, it was one of the best rolls my family and I have tried. The pirate was so refreshing and when paired with the lychee martini, it was a match made in heaven. Definitely a great date spot, I would come again! read more

I was really unsure about this place at first because it wasn't the traditional sushi place that I thought it was, but the food was really good. The sushi rolls are really Americanized but they are quite delicious and the quality of fish is high, and it was fresh. I was pleasantly surprised. The service here was also really good, the server was attentive without being too over bearing. We were allowed to enjoy our food and still ensured that we had everything we needed for our meal. The ambiance is a bit loud here, it is busy and the music is played at a high volume. It didn't bother me. The decorations were a little weird for my taste, maybe some kind of urban Japanese feel? I didn't judge the restaurant on that. I would come here again, for sure! Really great food! read more
