Delicious food and great service (thanks Sean!). We had the new salmon carpaccio, ocean roll, veggie tempura roll, yellowtail kama and kitsune udon! Would order all of them again! read more

We've been going to Mikko Sushi for years and really enjoy it. Our go-to order is sharing three rolls for lunch -- the Waimea, Albacore Special, and the Samurai. The fish is fresh, the flavors are well-balanced, and the presentation is always nice. We used to come more often when they offered happy hour specials, which made the pricing feel more reasonable. Since they removed happy hour, it's become more of an occasional treat. For reference, my husband and I typically share three rolls at lunch and it comes out to around $80, with most rolls priced at $20+. We still enjoy coming here and would recommend it, but we do wish they offered a lunch or happy hour menu like some of the other sushi spots nearby to make it easier to visit more often. read more

Sean, wow, what a waiter! The sushi, the prawns, couldn't be greater!! We will surely be back later!!! When I ordered wine, What a pour! This is exactly what I adore... He recommended "The Escondido" His recommendation couldn't be beat-o What a treat-o! read more

Service wasn't the best in the beginning, as it took quite some time for our order to be taken (it's just thru piece of paper and pencil). No one came by to offer water refills, it wasn't really until the end that one of the servers checked up and said to let them know if we need anything. read more

Mikko is always a great choice when in Vista. I ordered my food to go but even that experience wasn't lacking. Some restaurants when order to go just had off your food and it doesn't feel like much of a welcome or anything. Just a here ya go and see ya. When I picked my food up, Alina (Hope I got that right) greeted me with a lovely greeting and a nice smile. Was super friendly and helpful :). Now the food. I ordered some miso soup, spicy seafood poke bowl, and a pipeline roll. The miso soup was good (hard to do that wrong haha. The poke bowl, to be honest it was good but nothing to write home about. I feel like the amount of lettuce and cabbage was a little overkill compared to the amount of fish. It was good but I personally probably wouldn't order that again. I'll stick with sashimi or sushi in the future. The pipeline roll.....delicious as pretty much all the rolls are. Anyway, Mikko is a great spot with great people, vibes, and food! See you all again soon! read more

Always love Mikko sushi. Carlos was our server and he was really attentive and professional. I just wanted to leave this review mostly to say how great he is! That and that you just have to get the tuna carpaccio read more

It's a pretty solid sushi spot overall. It's located in downtown Vista, there's street parking, some lots nearby and also a parking garage a couple blocks down. Depending on the day and time, parking can fill up but there's usually a spot *somewhere* not too far. There's patio seating and also a decent amount of space inside. The times I've gone, the service has been fairly prompt. The biggest plus I'd say about this place is that the nigiri portions are really good. They give you a lot of fish for each piece. The rolls I've tried were fine, I might try more but I also might just stick to the nigiri. I'd recommend it for locals looking to get their sushi fix read more

We ordered sushi on a very busy Saturday night, which was expected and completely understandable. However, we ended up waiting an additional 20 minutes past our scheduled pickup time. There wasn't much room inside the restaurant to wait, which made the delay a bit uncomfortable. That said, our order was correct, and everything appeared to have been made fresh though not all at once. Half of the rolls were ready at the promised time, while the rest were still being prepared when we arrived. The rolls were smaller compared to those from other local sushi spots, but they were still flavorful and well-prepared. We enjoyed a few appetizers along with a variety of specialty rolls. Our favorites were the Hawaiian, Pipeline, Yellowtail Maki, and Waimea rolls, they were creative, well-balanced, and delicious. One helpful tip: if you're ordering pickup, use the restaurant's official website to bypass third-party platforms, which often add unnecessary fees and may not reflect the most accurate menu or pricing. Overall, despite the wait and limited space, the quality of the food made up for it. I'd be happy to return, perhaps for dine-in next time to fully enjoy the experience, or really any day but Saturday. Parking is limited since it's located in downtown Vista, but on the bright side, it's free, so that's a fair trade-off. I suppose you can't have it all. read more

Great sushi spot in Vista Village. There's usually a wait to get into this spot, but we ended up only having to wait 15 minutes to get a table. My wife and I had only done takeout from them, this is the first time we dined in. The inside is pretty large. We ended getting seated in the back of the restaurant. It was nice having some privacy in the back. We ordered the stuffed jalapenos and seaweed salad to start, both were amazing. We got the Waimea and Endless Summer rolls for our mains. We really loved the Waimea. The Endless Summer was good, but we thought it would be spicier. This sliced ginger was also dry and stringy which was unfortunate. Overall, we had a great experience and would definitely co.e back. read more

I have been coming to Mikkos for ~15 years (since Carlsbad was still the OG). Once Carlsbad closed, we opted to try the Vista location when they opened. Happy to say we've been coming here regularly ever since. Food is delicious and consistent and they have plenty of options. They still maintain some traditional Japanese dishes which also reassuring. I'm surprised it's taken me SO long to review Mikkos but in all fairness, they are encouraging reviews right now as a fun incentive with the servers. Our server, Alli was endearing and sweet during the dinner rush. Obviously, we'll be back... read more

We come to Mikkos often. Larson has always been a very friendly waiter. Every time we come in he is usually our waiter. He makes sure we have our drink promptly and checks in when the food comes out. The food is never a disappointment. Highly recommend this place. read more

Came here for the first time last night and WOW! The fish is so fresh, and the rolls are super creative, tasty, and diverse. I usually go to Harney in Oceanside but I actually think Mikko has better quality fish and better rolls! We had the Carlsbad roll, surfs up roll, salmon scallop and albacore nigiri, and the chicken katsu. Everything was a 20/10. We will definately be back and I can't wait to try more menu items! read more

As someone who doesn't eat sushi regularly, I was surprised by how much I enjoyed dinner -- especially eating off my friend's plate (I may have eaten half ). I'm not sure what everything was called, but from the service and prices to the friendly staff, the entire experience was delightful. read more

So, we love this place. After having sushi at a few new places and giving them a try, we went back to Mikko last week. I don't know why we ever go anywhere else. The food here never disappoints. Thoughtful servers and in a cute walkable downtown location in Vista. Only one thing would make this place better, a sushi bar! Open the bar up!!! More seats for butts and we love watching and chatting with the sushi chefs. Well done Mikko - we will be back. read more

We visited Mikko on a weekday around 3:30pm with my mother. There were 3 tables sat and we were quickly greeted and seated at a booth. As time went by it got quite busy, which was surprising for a weeknight, but gave me hope! We ordered a shrimp tempura appetizer and 4 rolls to share. My mom ordered the tempura combo dinner. One thing that was quite alarming was the vibe... I don't know how to explain it, but is was feeling of being unwelcome into their restaurant. What made it worse was my mother asked the girl who was expediting to-go orders for a straw when she walked by... and she said sure and walked away to continue doing her order expediting while telling our server something. Our server appeared at our table blank faced and said "you have a problem?" my mom, me AND my boyfriend looked at each other so confused and said "no....? We DID just ask for a straw though....but the other girl said she was bringing it." She then reached in her apron and handed us a straw, said no words, and walked away. Now, what's weird is, the girl we asked originally for a straw had a bunch in HER apron! Hence, why we were just so baffled at the response to our question. I am not one to pull this card lightly, but I felt like we were treated that way because of what they may have thought our ethnic background was? My mom is filipino, but my boyfriend and I look middle eastern to most people... and if thats the reason why we got treated that way (felt like it) then that's terrible. ANYWAYS. That was our restaurant employee experience which honestly knocks down my rating the most because that's just terrible customer service, and almost made us leave if the food hadn't come out shortly after the experience. Let's get into food because we cannot punish the cooks for bad waitresses. The food, was wonderful. Sushi was fresh and ingredients well thought out for each roll. The tempura was some of the BEST I've ever had... and I've had a lot of tempura in my lifetime. I say this because it wasn't overly greasy or overly battered. I added pictures and a caption of what each item is for everyone to look at. Now, would I ever visit again? No. The food was wonderful, but there are a lot of other sushi spots nearby that have BOTH great food AND stellar service consistently. I recommend this restaurant only for their food, so maybe get some to-go, at least we know from this experience that they have someone FULLY attentive to that sole purpose of to-go orders.. read more

OMG!!! Not a sushi connoisseur by any means, but I have had my fair share and this place is by far the best I have had in 15 years. We tried four different rolls and and the flavor profiles of each of them were so dynamic and different it was unbelievable. Fresh, crisp, balanced. 10 out of 10 would eat here again, and I will recommend this place to anyone I know that loves sushi. Thank you to our server Alliiana for the recommendations. Couldn't have been better. Exceptional food and service!!! read more

We love Mikko and Sean is our favorite! Great food, excellent service! A reliable go to every time! Never disappointed!

This is our "Go To" for all things Sushi and other yummy dishes. We drive a pretty fair distance and are never disappointed. The lunch bento box, (before 4:00 p.m.) is such a treat and the generous portions and variety are a perfect combo for an early dinner or late lunch. I highly recommend the teriyaki salmon, California roll and tempura sampler, while my husband is addicted to the spicy chicken teriyaki and gyoza. Another seemingly minor menu item is their miso soup which is so good that we actually order it to take home for its soothing "comfort food" qualities. The service should mentioned as well, we have never had anything but friendly, professional and prompt service! read more

We love Mikko Sushi. We live up the street and this is our go to. My fiancé is obsessed with sushi and this fits the bill. I'm a vegetarian but really enjoy the tempura veggie roll (even my fiancé enjoys this one) and the spicy garlic edamame. My fiancé's favorite rolls include the Miko & Philadelphia roll. The ambiance and service are both great. It's a very popular spot as their place in Carlsbad burned down so folks come into Vista from all over North County to eat here. Expect a bit of a wait to be seated most evenings so plan ahead -- but it's totally worth it! read more
