Let me tell you that I was initially thrown off by the name, but now am a long time regular. Great spot if you're looking for fun rolls at a reasonable price. It's small - so the wait can be long, but they do allow you to make reservations via phone. read more

This has become my favorite sushi restaurant! My fiancé and I stopped by on a whim because of the restaurant's name, and we were blown away by the quality and selection of the fish. The toro had beautiful marbling like wagyu beef, the kanpachi was so fresh and delicate, and the ankimo was melt in the mouth delicious! Special mention for the hotate (scallop) nigiri, the scallop was beautifully cut and had a buttery mouthfeel. They also have an extensive sake and Japanese beer list with many brands I have never seen at other restaurants. The Dassai 45 was a great pairing with the nigiri we got! The space is intimate, set for mostly tables of 2, though we did see tables combined to seat parties of 4. There is always classy jazzy music playing, and the vibes are chill and cozy with warm lighting. The servers are attentive even during busy times, and are very professional. I highly recommend stopping by if you get the chance, and make sure to call for a reservation because the small space fills up quickly. Be aware that parking is limited and some spots are reserved for other businesses. read more

Make a reservation at 8 Friday night and got seated right away. Ordered the most popular fish attack roll, a big bake roll and fried baby octopus appetizer. And regular edamame (so bland). The bake roll is full of cheese, yuk. But the octopus delivered above expectations. Should have ordered garlic edamame instead. Small, intimate interior, nice deco. Solid dinner read more

The caterpillar and rainbow rolls are fantastic. Super fresh! And pickup is easy and convenient.

Amazing sushi restaurant in Clairemont. Be careful, they have been working on the main street for awhile & there are some major potholes. They are only open for dinner. I have been here 2x within the last 3 months & both times have been wonderful! Customer service is super friendly & attentive. You cannot go wrong with any roll here! & they have beers from Japan too. Salmon Belly Nigiri: So fresh! Fish Attack Special Roll: Tasty, like a rainbow roll with tuna, salmon & other fish. Sushi Pizza: A must order! Crispy rice as the "dough" w/ delicious spicy tuna, yellowtail & sauce on the top. Hot Kiss Roll: My fav roll, so flavorful! Bomb Bomb Roll: A go to if you are a fried soft shell crab fan. Super Dragon Roll: Love this eel roll! Gyoza: Good. Shrimp Tempura: Lightly breaded. read more

We got the Hot Kiss Roll, Double Kick Roll, Sushi Pizza and Spicy Tuna Hand Roll. All of them were made wish very fresh fish. The rice was perfectly cooked and plates were beautifully crafted. Service was very polite and they were busy for a random Tuesday night! The interior is modern and upscale with a fantastic choice of jazzy music. The prices are reasonable, and I would 100% come again. read more

I came here on a whim with some friends and was completely blown away. The fish is incredibly fresh--they have toro and belly--and the portions are generous without sacrificing presentation. You can tell the chefs take real pride in their work. We ordered a variety of rolls (the Firecracker and Crispy Salmon were standouts), plus a few nigiri, and every bite was perfect. The flavors were balanced, creative, and never overpowered the quality of the fish. Service was slow at first, but friendly. The vibe is fun and casual, but still clean and modern. Perfect for a night out with friends or a laid-back date night. Prices are reasonable for the quality, too. Can't wait to come back and try more. This place has officially become one of my top sushi spots in town. read more

This is my favorite local sushi joint! The staff is always friendly, they greet you warmly when you arrive and are very attentive to your needs throughout the dining experience. The rolls are inventive and taste fresh and I love the simple and welcoming decor. It's usually busy with people on dates, gathering with friends, and families celebrating milestones. It's a go to spot that never disappoints. I love their baked roles and their sushi tower and sushi pizza are really fun too. I usually get the large hot sake which is a lovely accompaniment to the meal. I love this place and would recommend it! read more

Sushi Fish Attack is my go-to neighborhood spot and a true hidden gem. The service is always warm and attentive, making every visit feel welcoming and relaxed even though the place is often packed. Come early. What really stands out is the quality of the fish--consistently fresh, generously thick-cut, and absolutely delicious. Whether you're a regular or stopping by for the first time, it's the kind of place that keeps you coming back. read more

Our Great new find! We loved the deliciousness and freshness of the fish and rolls. Our new go-to spot locally for sushi.

I brought my friends here for the first time and they absolutely loved it! Shishito peppers: (5/5) These were cooked perfectly and covered in a delicious sauce. Cherry blossom roll: (5/5) This is my favorite roll. It confirmed how good it was when we decided to order two of them! Chu Toro sashimi: (5/5) This was on the specials board. It comes with five good sized pieces. We devoured them so quickly. The fish was so fresh and literally melted in your mouth. Definitely recommend trying this. It's bomb. Ex boyfriend roll: (4/5) Overall good flavors, but nothing special! Probably wouldn't order again. read more

Went very last minute on a Friday night , the vibes, the hospitality & the quality of the food is very good! I've lived in clairemont my whole life and have never came here, will definitely start coming here more often! read more

Quality sushi with a variety of menu items! We ordered the Bomb Bomb, the Fish Attack Special, and the Dynamite Salmon. Each specialty roll was flavorful and handcrafted to perfection. The sauce on the Bomb Bomb was a standout, and the quick and attentive service was great. The ambiance consisted of dim lighting and a nice chill vibe. I highly recommend checking Sushi Fish Attack out and trying these rolls! read more

Really great service. Jin was very thorough and made sure we were well taken care of. If I could give them 6 stars I would, because what sushi place do you know will modify their rolls per request? We asked for a non-spicy dynamite roll and a crab-less dragon roll, and they delivered without hesitation. It seems this place is busy enough for a reservation, and while we didn't have one and had to sit outside, we were kept warm with heaters and didn't have to wait at all (we watched plenty of people wait though). The inside is really nice and their bathrooms are clean, love everything about this place to be honest. Will be back when I'm down in San Diego! read more

I guess I've found my new sushi joint in SD. The fish was super fresh and melted in my mouth. My favorites are going to be the protein roll and fish attack stack which is perfect for the people who don't want rice. Extra point for the ginger being crisp and fresh too! The service was 5/5--all very kind and attentive, and the ambience felt like a lowkey local spot. I can't wait to come back!! read more

The reason I like this place is because it is a small sushi restaurant, but it is formal. The servers are very quick and don't talk too much, which is great. The sushi they have here is top-notch. Feel free to tip the sushi chefs. They have good deals on drinks and have a variety of different choices. They even have a menu with pictures that you can point to. read more

Sushi fish attack is a hidden gem we came across when looking for sushi in the area. It is a smaller sushi restaurant that looks family-owned and the workers are so kind! The quality of fish was good and it was affordable! This place has o toro and chu toro and yellowtail, salmon belly nigir!! My fave! They have a good selection of food and it definitely satisfies my sushi craving. Thank you!! Also the largest they can accommodate is 5 people just fyi! read more

First time trying and I'll be back. For the price point, probably the best quality sushi I have ever had. Rolls were fresh as well as nigiri. Plenty to choose from. Place is quiet and laid back, no frills. Server was extremely attentive and accommodating with our special requests. My single critique is that the crispy rice, while very tasty, is off in ratio. There is way too much rice for the amount of spicy tuna. Either add more tuna or make the rice portion a bit smaller, would really elevate the dish. Happy to have a new cheap casual fresh tasty sushi spot. read more

Walked in for opening time right at 4:30. Was seated within a couple minutes. Staff is friendly. The vibe is cute, quaint, quiet, not overstimulating. I loved the guy at the bar that made our sushi. Super nice. The FOOD let me tell you, freshest sushi I've had. Got the mango roll and orange crush. Mango wasn't as sweet since out of season, but still a top tier roll. Orange crush was my favorite! I love lemon so I was wow'd by it. Overall 10/10 spot. read more

I've found my new casual sushi spot! Our party of 2 arrived on a quiet Monday evening and ordered 4 rolls to share along with their chu toro sashimi nigiri (special). The first roll (Vegas roll) came out, and we consumed it slowly while waiting for the rest of the food. But the rest of the rolls and sashimi took quite some time, even though the restaurant wasn't busy. Vegas Roll (4/5): we wanted one of the rolls to be either a deep fried or a baked roll so that we could try a variety of different rolls and so it wouldn't be overwhelming with solely raw fish rolls. I love salmon and cream cheese, so to me, it was good. Thousand Island (5/5): light and refreshing. The fish was fresh and the cucumber wrap was a great substitute to rice and seaweed, otherwise our overall meal would be carb overload. Orange Crush (5/5): scallops and salmon are some of my favs, so I knew I had to order this roll, and it did not disappoint. Seared Tuna Roll (4/5): I'm not the biggest fan of seared tuna; but this roll was actually pretty good. Chu Toro Sashimi (5/5): this was on their special board and was priced at $28 for 5 pieces. It melts in your mouth. DROOLS Overall I give the place 4.5 stars, very close to a 5. The food was slow in the beginning. And I'm not big on decor and I'm a simple gal, but the interior looks really low budget. However, I can't wait to return. P.S. the kizami wasabi is a must. read more

Fresh delicious fish, fast friendly service, very chill ambience, and environment. Can't wait to come back.!!

Wow! This year I think I've tried every sushi bar in the UTC area. This place was hands down the best tasting and freshest. Small restaurant that gets very busy. Definitely recommend making reservations. Just got a bunch of nigiri as their specialty rolls didn't sound very good as most had imitation crab. Will be back when I'm in the area. read more

Sushi was good. I took a look at the rolls and I asked the staff members which one the most popular. They recommended me the signature roll and it has the restaurant's name on it. I noticed they take a very good care of their fish meat, it actually tastes better than many of the other sushi place that I have been to in San Diego. Thumbs up. As for the other dishes such as teriyaki chicken, I actually cannot recommend it. It was almost overcooked. I appreciate the fact that it is made to order, but it's certainly did not do chicken the proper justice. Granted why am I ordering a chicken in a sushi restaurant right? I have to because my kid don't eat sushi yet he's too young. read more

I've been looking for a new sushi spot and heard about this place from a Reddit thread about affordable and great quality sushi. The restaurant website recommended making a reservation, so I called before I decided to go and got a reservation very quick for 2 people. This was already a great sign for me as usually there are sign up lists, so it helps to know and have a spot waiting before showing up. The parking lot is relatively small, so be sure to come early. There is limited street parking as well. It was a busy Saturday early in the evening and the noise level was somewhat loud, but my wife and I were seated right away because of our reservation. We had just finished reviewing the menu and our waitress, Angie, came by (perfect timing) to ask for drinks. She was very friendly and very quick and you didn't have to ask to have your water refilled because she was so attentive. She has only been there for a few months, but I thought she was an owner or something because of how good she was! My favorite thing we ordered was the nigiri. Sake (Salmon) Nigiri and Sake Belly Nigiri had a very generous fish to rice ratio and was so melty. The Bomb Bomb roll was my wife's favorite and my close 2nd because it comes with soft shell crab. It was so smooth and crunchy at the same time. The Orange Crush roll was a sleeper because it comes with super thin lemon slices you can eat with each piece of sushi. I feel like you can't go wrong with anything from Sushi Fish Attack. This place has taken the throne of my favorite sushi spot in San Diego. read more

I cannot believe I havent reviewed this place yet. Its been our favorite local sushi restaurant in Clairemont for a while now and we are definitely regulars! We always make a reservation (typically calling same day after then open at 4:30) and its usually a good idea. They fill up quick all throughout the week, but you can usually sit at the sushi bar if its last minute. There are two rolls that we ALWAYS get and I highly recommend: Orange Crush and Seared Tuna. Every time we get those, and then a 3rd of something new to try and nothing has stood out enough to continue along with those two. I would say that Orange Crush is one of their most popular items. Its all about this thin slice of lemon on top - totally makes it! I dont usually get salmon-based sushi but this one is just phenomenal. The accent of lemon just makes it so refreshing. And then the Search Tuna is a lovely compliment to it being really savory and delicious. They are both so good! It's been a while but I also highly recommend the Fish Attack Stack. The staff is always very friendly and attentive. I love that they always wave you goodbye and say "See you tomorrow!" It's charming and always gives me a laugh. Love this place! read more
