Charming little sushi restaurant. I've been here several times, and I can say they don't disappoint. A diverse variety of sushi, sesame chicken, baked mussels, spicy garlic edamame -- my son loves the 'Baby Rockstar' roll -- everything has been good. Parking was a bit tight but still enough and plenty. Located in a plaza. read more

I've been going to Japanese Castle Sushi for a while now, and it's easily one of my go-to spots when I'm craving Japanese food. I always order the chicken yakitori--it's consistently on point every time. The chicken is juicy, well-seasoned, and has that perfect grilled flavor. One thing I like is that I switch up my sushi rolls every visit, and I've honestly never been disappointed. Everything always tastes fresh and well put together. That said, a couple rolls I keep coming back to are the Samurai Roll and the Blue Crab Salmon Roll--both are packed with flavor and definitely stand out on the menu. And I have to mention the miso soup... hands down the best I've had. It's simple, but done right with great flavor. Overall, this place is consistent, fresh, and reliable. If you like trying different sushi rolls or already have your favorites, this spot is definitely worth checking out. read more

On a lovely Saturday evening, my boyfriend and I visited Japanese Castle. We arrived around 8:00 PM and only waited about 15 minutes. The interior design was well put together. I really appreciate restaurants that build an immersive experience beyond just the menu. The lighting was dim, which set a great mood, and the music selection was impressively diverse. Now for the food: I ordered the Baked Salmon Roll (4/5) and the Hot Pepper Chicken (3/5). I wasn't a huge fan of the sauce on the chicken and was hoping for a crispier texture, but the Miso Soup was absolutely delicious. The servers wear light-up name tags, which is a brilliant touch and made it so easy to remember who was taking care of us! I'll def be back to try other menu items. read more

Big, clean restaurant. Fast, friendly, and attentive service. The food was wonderful. Everything was really fresh and flavorful. We had a couple of rolls, a bento box and a big salad. They have the best miso soup I've ever had. The prices are decent and we left satisfied. read more

Walked in and was advised to wait 20-30 minutes. We were given a choice to sit at the sushi bar as there was open seating. Even though we sat at the sushi bar the waitress comes ans takes your order. We ordered Spicy Edamam as an appetizer, the inside was cold so I decided to have a cup of Hot Tea, no real sugar here, only artificial packs, no good. The sushi was pretty good, the beer even better.Lol.Service was good. Will be back if Im in the area. read more

I came here with a friend to eat a late lunch and it was our first time here. It's a nice restaurant with great ambiance and the food was pretty good, BUT the service could've been better. When we were done eating, we've waited hoping a server would pass by, but I had to go to the front to let them know we were done. My friend said she'd come back again. As for me, I'll think about it. read more

Overall I enjoyed my visit to this Castle with some highlights which were the fine attentive service with a smile, the reasonable noise level and casual ambiance (with plenty of parking nearby), and in particular the excellent salmon collar and the pork cutlet. The sushi was a strange letdown, rather tasteless, and the rice did no one any favors. Salad was forgettable tho the orange slices excellent (this time of year). Still, this is a very reasonably priced experience with generous portions and I'd come back just for the salmon collar and to try some different dishes. read more

Good food for the price. The meal deal was pretty good and the server was friendly and quick with drinks and starters. Sushi rolls were good and well worth the meal deal. Teriyaki beef was good but came somewhat lukewarm. Miso soup was good but the tofu was meh. It tasted boiled separately and that one brand from ranch 99. I didnt have any seaweed but my partner had plenty. Bulgogi beef was meh as well. Over half of it was onions. I personally like the Christmas decor and it gives a great ambiance for Christmas. Overall I would come back again, just not the bulgogi. read more

Came here on a cold, rainy day and it was mine and my boyfriend's anniversary. We were greeted right away. We took a look at the menu then ordered. For starters, we got the corn tempura, just to try something different. We both really enjoyed this and it was something good to munch on in between our meal. It was cold, so we both got soup. My boyfriend ordered the ramen tonkatsu and I got the pain udon with a side of sushi. My boyfriend thought the ramen was okay. The noodles were good, had good texture. It was bouncy. But the stuff that comes in it was just ehh. I tried the soup and it wasnt too bad. The udon was okay as well. Nothing special. I like the noodles. My boyfriend said the soup taste like water but I know the broth is suppose to be light like that. I really enjoyed the sushi! You can tell the quality is good. I'm always picky about my tuna sushi because most sushi places I've gone to, you can tell they serve it frozen this one tasted fresh, not frozen. The yellowtail and albacore was good too. Some places they taste chewy. And can't go wrong with salmon! The ambiance it cool. The music was poppin lol. You had your oldies, hip hop, pop. My review would have been 5 stars, but after we received our food the service sucked! Towards the end of the meal my boyfriend told me he told our waiter we were celebrating our anniversary (while I was in the restroom) and he wanted to surprise me. The waiter said he can bring out some mochi. Like I said after we received our food, we received no service whatsoever! Not even for drink refills or a "how are you doing?" "Can I get you anything?" I would like to give this place another chance, just cos I'm pretty sure we ordered the wrong food as it looks like they're known for their sushi. I just hope they improve in their service! read more

This place is consistently amazing. The sushi is always fresh, the flavors are on point, and you can really taste the quality in every bite. We've been here in person 10+ times and have ordered delivery at least 20+ times, and the experience has been great every single time. That kind of consistency is hard to find. The staff is friendly, the service is fast, and everything comes out quickly without sacrificing quality. The ramen is also really good, and the appetizers are just as impressive--everything we've tried has been fresh and delicious. Definitely one of our go-to spots. Highly recommend if you're looking for fresh sushi and great service! This place deserves more than five stars!Dang, I want sushi now! lol read more

Good service, cool servers. Ambiance is pretty chill, I like how they welcome and say goodbye to you in Japanese in unison. Pretty good sushi spot compared to the rest in the area and surrounding cities. Been a few times, will be back. read more

A few quick points to start. Authentic feeling, nice ambiance, quick service, quality ingredients. I had the salmon teriyaki bowl. Soft, tender salmon. Fresh, crunchy veggies. All atop a plentiful serving of rice. House salad was included. Crunchy greens and dressing was good, a slightly sweet, mildly sour vinaigrette. Miso soups are not usually my go to, but this one was tasty. Properly salty with bits of tofu. Would recommend and will return to try other options. read more

I recommend this place! Always greeted with respect. The place is always clean. The price is great for the taste! Their taste in music is always great! Never too loud and you get to enjoy the music and conversation. Never had a bad experience. I have been coming here for a little over 5 years now and everything is always amazing. I recommend the Alaskan roll, scallop star roll, and baked rock star roll! read more

First visit here! The service is efficient and prompt! The food is truly of better quality than many sushi establishments. We ordered the spicy garlic edamame and the sauce on top was the best I've enjoyed when it comes to the 'spicy garlic' variations you can see and get at other sushi spots. We also had the dragon roll, ring star roll. Came out very fresh and delicious. At the last minute we decided to add the red hot pepper chicken which has a decent soft crunch? If that makes sense to the breaded portion. The flavor has a slight kick but not over powering. Lastly I ordered the salmon belly collar, my must have any sushi spots I go if available- hot and amazing as expected, AND portion equivalent to the price/value. The establishment is clean, presentable, dim lit but still well lit, some twinkling lights. Looking forward to my next visit. read more

A great Japanese restaurant for sushi! We reserved a table and got sat at one of the booths. The decor is traditional Japanese sushi bar with low lighting and a great music playlist. Perfect for a date night! We ordered a tasty strawberry shake which comes with a free appetizer on weekdays. We ordered several orders of sushi, a chefs special, and a roll. All of the plates were so delicious. The fish cuts were so thick and fresh! Even just the wasabi is great. Service was excellent too! Overall a great experience and will returning for sure. read more

This place is great for lunch and dinner. We went for dinner tonight around 6:30pm, busy but had lots of tables open, they play alternative rock and sometimes pop music everyday at a decent volume and the lights are low with black out windows it's a really nice atmosphere. We ordered 3 rolls; fire scallop roll, rainbow roll, and moon night roll. My boyfriend also order the dinner Bento combo which comes with 1 main (bulgogi beef) and 1 side (5 gyoza). He order a beer and I got a coke, our total came out to be a little over $70. Each roll was around $14 and bento box was $20. Our server was super nice and they have waiters walking around periodically checking in. This is definitely one of my favorite sushi restaurants :) read more

Came here on our way from LA to SD. It's a cute little place in a strip mall with plenty of parking. Lots of places to sit inside. We went on a Thursday and it wasn't too busy. Everything we had was good. I'll break everything down below. We started off with the fried corn. The sauce on it was super tasty! Nice crunch. The gyoza was okay. Although perfectly cooked it lacked some flavor. Would pass on that next time. All the sushi we had was great. One of us had an avocado roll and the avocado wasn't ripe so that's our only gripe but honestly we would reorder everything we got! And that's coming from someone who stayed in Japan for a few months and is super picky. The bento box with teriyaki chicken was good as was the udon soup. We finished the night off with their macaroon with strawberry ice cream which was the perfectly sweet not too large end of a great meal. Special shout out to Richard, our server, who went above and beyond to ensure we had a great experience. Will return! read more
