The most incredible dining experience! ! My partner surprised me for our anniversary and it was…read moreamazing not knowing what dish was next. Being in the moment and listening to the chefs explain each dish was so exciting. Everything is locally caught and some flavored to perfection. Even the sake, high recommended to pair with the Japanese lager. Everything was perfect ! I had mentioned I don't eat dairy so I got a different dessert than my boyfriend. It was the most delicious ending to an epic meal. I honestly can't wait to get back home and tell all my friends and family about it. The place was right next to a tree covered by tree branches it was truly a beautiful design. The server and chefs were so kind and well informed. Really tied in the experience.

It doesn't get much better than this…read more.. Booked Baja Omakase a couple of months in advance as I wanted to ensure this happened at our next Valle trip. We arrived at the location (tucked away) off the main road. Like a lot of the good things in Valle I suppose. We soon realized we were the only two dining with the chef this night. Which meant full attention full service just for the two of us. Talk about a treat. Our waiter mentioned how the omakase would work and soon started us with drinks and water. What came after was a dream, a full experience of tastes, and adventure, and exquisiteness. A really good selection of fish from the local Ensenada region. I was in awe every time a new dish come out. I lost count, and found myself trying to savor every moment every bite, and then having a moment of clarity and asking "what course are we on?" "how many are left?" I didn't worry to much as every single stage of omakase was magnificent, beautifully presented and something I highly suggest you do, if you have the opportunity to. If you get lucky and end of being the only customers for night, take advantage of it. As, opportunities like this, are rare. TOSHI is the best!

We came to Azuki Sushi Lounge for a birthday dinner. Luckily we had a reservation, because when we…read morearrived at 5pm, just about every table was full. I had debated whether to reserve upstairs or downstairs and ultimately chose upstairs and I was happy with that decision for the two of us, as it was a bit more relaxing and I liked the decor. There was however, a large table of about 8 people in the center of the room that were quite noisy. Downstairs definitely had a more 'hustle bustle' atmosphere with large booths and a long sushi bar. (There is also some outdoor 'Covid' style seating). We ordered sake, a couple of sushi rolls and negiri. They were kind enough to supply a complimentary birthday ice-cream dessert with a candle. Service was very attentive and as we passed the sushi bar on the way out, staff behind the bar waived goodbye. Parking: We were able to park near First and Laurel streets for free on a Saturday afternoon. A very classy sushi place. I definitely recommend a visit for a special occasion or perhaps if visiting nearby Balboa Park or the Old Globe Theater. Helpful?

The food was delicious and fresh, you could tell they used high quality fish for all their dishes. We started with spicy garlic edamame, which was the best I have ever had, and hamachi Kama which is also a must. For mains I enjoyed the By the Border roll and spicy hamachi, and my husband had the nigiri plate. We were not disappointed. The sushi was so fresh, the flavors were stand out, and you could taste the quality. All in all we would definitely go back and can't wait for another date night!

I don't think I have ever gotten rolls from here that stayed intact when I ate them. the flavor is good but they are poorly made. I just picked up my order and I asked for just ginger and no wasabi. I didn't get any ginger. This happened the last 3-4 times I've gone here. It even says on the order paper on the outside of the paper bag for only ginger. Why do I keep coming back? It's close by. The rolls falling apart is annoying, so I just want other people to know that the quality is poor if they're coming here for the first time.

(3/5) * Modern sushi…read morespot with some Japanese-inspired décor. Bar area with Japanese liquors displayed when you walk in. Table seating only; no booths. * Menu is accessed by scanning a QR code. Personally, I prefer a physical menu so I can see everything at once instead of being on my phone during dinner. * Service was slow with only one waitress working. Long waits for drinks, ordering, and follow-up service. * Lemonade was disappointing--very bitter and tasted more like watered-down lemon juice. * Sushi rolls looked good and were decent overall. * Udon bowl was huge but only filled about - 1/2 of the way. Portion size didn't match the price. Taste was okay, but the kid said hes had way better. The fish cakes were definitely the highlight. * Tempura was good, but I was disappointed because the menu description led me to expect something different than what was served. * Spicy salmon hand roll was just okay. * After mentioning confusion about my order, our waitress never checked back, refilled drinks, or followed up with our table. * Asked about available discounts (military, AAA, etc.) and was quickly told no before I could finish asking. * Best part of the evening? The adorable baby at the table next to us who provided the only entertainment. Overall: The food was average with a few highlights, but the slow and inattentive service significantly impacted the experience. We still left a tip, but unfortunately, I don't think we'd rush back.

Went back but was only able to catch their dinner menu, no salmon teriyaki :( but their udon was good. The vibe here is also excellent, the staff got along really well, our orders were taken extremely fast.

It felt like I was in Japan again! Just kidding I've never been ;( To the restaurant! ADD THE SALMON TERIYAKI TO THE MENU AGAIN please I am on my hands and knees. Arigato Gozaimas ititakimas!!!!

The menu was easy, they don't have a ton of options but there are enough for different taste buds. I ordered the chicken bowl and the chicken teriyaki plate. Both were fulfilling, my daughter loved the rice and the sauce. I loved that the chicken teriyaki came with salad and the salad was actually fresh and crunchy. They have your usual drinks like water and soda. They also have delicious corn bread (I know corn bread in a teriyaki place? But then again is a Japanese place in Mexico) the corn bread is homemade too, you totally need to try it. I will go back for more for sure! Lastly, this place won't break your wallet but it will remove your appetite.

Their sushi and fish are pretty good quality & one of our favorite things is that happy hour is buy 1 get 1 beer & sake all day lol When we came back to try AYCE seafood we had a few questions about the menu and our server was super patient with all our questions and requests. I genuinely think it's worth the price just because the amount of appetizers that come along with it. There was more than enough food to go around and we didn't even get to 3 rounds of seafood before we got full haha It's a clean restaurant, good service, and in a large plaza. The plaza it's located in can get really busy though because of the TJ Max & Marshals so I would plan accordingly on the weekends. The only reason I put 4 stars instead of 5 is because although the flavoring in the seafood is delicious.. I think they add way too much butter in the mix that it literally drowns out the seasoning. So what we started doing is digging to the bottom of the bag with a spoon, scooping out some of the seasoning from there and adding it to a sauce cup with some salt & pepper. Then we add the butter from there. The flavor is there, it is.. you just have to dig for it lol other than that our experience was great. We'll be coming back often.
