    Lemon Grove hidden gem ! Pros-- Quick service Wonderful customer care Clean, cute, to the point Plenty of menu items Basic, yet bougie sushi rolls Love the nigiri's ! (Not too much rice) Cons-- Parking lot is rough (spots are small) Get there right at opening time or wait No airflow, you'll smell like sushi lol Overall, a solid ! My go-to spot for pick-up for sushi nights at home . This beats grocery store sushi, and satisfys the cravings without breaking the bank !

    Shrimp Crunch Roll
    Ali B.

    Had a great dinner tonight along with many other mothers and their families . This restaurant was so busy. It took 20 plus minutes of waiting for a table but it was worth it. A waiter took our order very quickly and we were enjoying sushi and Sapporo in know time at all. 2026(16)

    I went for Happy Hour. When you get a drink you can choose one from their list for a good price. The food is amazing and service is great, they would check on us often but my favorite is the tempura California roll. I highly recommend to go whether it's for sushi, soup or Happy Hour.

    Spam Musubi 2 Pieces
    Maya S.

    I came with one other guest on the Tuesday prior to Thanksgiving and they were quite busy! Despite that, we were seated in about 20 minutes. The hot food came out hot and the sushi came out quick! The tempura was standard. Sushi was great, especially for the price. Spam musubi is a must-get - can't find it everywhere and it's delicious! Overall, casual sushi place and popular for a reason. Reasonably priced and good portion sizes.

    I absolutely LOVE this place, my daughter and I try to come here at least 1x/week for our dinner date. We love sushi! Hinata Sushi to be exact haha The sushi is always served great and fresh! The staff is absolutely amazing, very friendly and knowledgeable of the food if you're needing assistance. They greet and seat right away! The lighting here seems to be perfect and the music is well diversified. While I sit there I see MANY DoorDash, order going out, but the does not effect the service by no means. Give this place a try, add it to your new favorites and then thank me! Haha

    Kamikaze Combo & Protein Rainbow Roll (No Rice)
    Isaiah A.

    Came here with my partner for some late-night sushi. It was my first time, though she's been here a few times before. We were seated within five minutes, and our server came by shortly after to grab our drinks and answer any questions, a solid start. To start, we got the Takoyaki. Then we ordered the Kamikaze Roll Combo and the Protein Rainbow Roll. I'll admit, I'm pretty picky when it comes to sushi since I usually stick to my go-to AYCE spot, but this place was definitely valid. The fish tasted fresh, prices were fair, and the spicy garlic chili oil my partner ordered was to die for. Definitely a spot I'll be coming back to whenever I'm in the Lemon Grove area.

    Tempura Udon - with 2 sad pieces of chicken
    Moana C.

    Stopped by here bcuz I didnt know what I wanted to eat. Got 2 rolls and a bow of udon. Lemme say that the udon was disappointing, there was chicken in there but when I say it looked sad I couldn't bring myself to take a pic. The rolls were good, I've never had a shrimp tempura roll that round or big trying to figure out if I prefer it that way or not. Really enjoyed the baked Cali roll.

    My husband and I have been loyal patrons of Hinata Sushi in Lemon Grove for years, through multiple ownership changes, and I can confidently say it's one of our favorite neighborhood gems! The quality has stayed consistently solid, making it a reliable go-to for à la carte sushi when we're not in the mood for all-you-can-eat. We always order the Submarine Roll (so flavorful and perfectly balanced) and a variety of hand rolls--fresh, generous portions every time. The takoyaki is a must; crispy outside, gooey inside, and packed with octopus goodness. Everything we've tried is on point, from the fish quality to the rice seasoning. Seating is quick depending on the time (we love early evenings or weekdays to avoid any wait), and the service is fast and friendly without feeling rushed. It's an overall great experience with delicious food that keeps us coming back. Highly recommend for sushi lovers in the area!

    SATISFACTION GUARANTEED I'm picky when it comes to sushi and it can be a challenge to find that sweet spot of taste and price. Hinata ranks Top 5 in my sushi discography in San Diego, why you say.... Because the don't do to much, which keeps the flavors consistent and is he cost low. And for a fellow resident of Lemon Grove it's these best in The Grove!!! The bonus for me is the Chili oil!! With the crunchy garlic.. put this on any roll to set it off!!! We Love Hinata Sushi!!!

    Affordable sushi and ramen compared to other Japanese restaurants. The ambiance is good, cozy comfortable seating. We decided to sit in a booth. I had changed my sushi order and the waiter was very understanding. Plenty of parking here! Thank Goodness! This has ONLY been my 2nd visit here. For this visit, I introduced my boyfriend & his best friend to dine here! They enjoyed their food as much as I had.

    The happy hour deal here is great, and the service is really good as well. The actual sushi rolls were just fine in my opinion. They're large, which seems to fit the price, but I had quite a few fishy pieces. (Fishier than I'd like my sushi to taste.) The salmon carpaccio and garlic tofu were very tasty. I'll be back to try the lunch special as well!

    Great service! I've been coming to eat sushi here for a while; long ago it used to be called Yi…read moreSushi & though it's changed ownership/name, my Daughter and I continued to come. This sushi restaurant is located in a huge shopping center and it has plenty of space, so don't worry about finding parking; you'll find one. The inside of the restaurant is pretty cozy, from every seat you can see the sushi Chefs working their magic. There's booth seating which is my favorite and regular tables in the center. The bathrooms are located in the back and is always clean and if you're in here for HAPPY HOUR and trying to catch a sports game theres a TV that usually have something entertaining on. What I like most about dining in is the music, it's not too loud and crazy and they have a pretty good playlist; it really coordinates with my happy dance as my food comes out. So if you see me in there, just know I'm excited for the food. The staff here are extremely nice, polite, and made this establishment very welcoming. The waiter knows my order and how my Daughter and I like our miso soup- so that already tell you we frequent this establishment often. The food comes out in a timely manner, beverages are always refilled, and though I haven't ordered the entire menu just yet- so far everything have been wonder! I can not complain, I come in hungry and leave full! Typical items that my Daughter and I order and definitely recommend is * Miso Soup * Garlic Edamame, the sauce is so flavorful and the huge slices of garlic gives it that extra zing. * Fried Calamari, great texture, nice crunch, good dipping sauce * Seaweed Salad, huge portions, great to share between 2-3 people * Sashimi Combo, fish is fresh, does not have that taste that it's been out for a while, you get a variety, and it comes with either a California roll or a Tuna roll which is great * Bento Box; we always choose the Beef Teriyaki- it comes with a Miso Soup or Salad, California Roll, Gyoza, and white rice * Crunchy Roll it has shrimp tempura, crabmeat, avocado, cucumber inside topped with eel sauce, spicy mayo & crunch on top and they're not shy about it. That's just to list a few items and the prices are reasonable, you're not breaking the bank and I have a few photos below but it does no Justice- you just have to try it out.

Parking was ample and it's located at the end of a strip mall. It's especially great with the large outdoor patio that's dog friendly and shared with a cocktail bar. On this night there was live island music which really added to the vibe. Warning their menu is pretty large and you might have trouble picking what to get. It's a great variety of Hawaiian and Guamanian dishes which ended up being large portions as well. Once I finally decided, the katsu musubi was a great appetizer choice. For the mains went with the Chamorro combo of pork ribs, chicken kelaguen & red rice and the saimin. I'd say it wasn't quite what I was expecting. While the ribs were tasty, the chicken kelaguen and red rice tasted a little different than what I've had in the past. The saimin was decent but wasn't true local style. But in all, it was a good dinner and really enjoyed the quick service and island vibes.

Chef Jeff and Chef Austin are inside (Sushi on a Roll). Everyone there is hella friendly and loves sharing the history behind the shop. Chef Jeff's story is seriously inspiring, and you can tell how much he's impacted the local sushi scene.. apparently a lot of sushi chefs and restaurants got their start through his mentorship. I recently came for Chef Austin's omakase, and sheeesh... absolutely worth it. Every bite was on point. I even met a woman visiting from Japan who said it's the closest she's had to back home, and that's saying something. Not much seating just bar seats about 6 if I counted correctly, so you have to come at the right time. If you want quality sushi, authentic Japanese ingredients, and a little glimpse of Japan without buying a plane ticket, this is the spot. Austin could also do private dinners which we'll be hiring him soon!! If you love sushi and have not been here you missing out player!
