    Gluten free musubi
    Melissa B.

    So excited to find this delicious musubi spot after becoming obsessed with it in Hawaii! This is easily the best I've found in San Diego since coming back, and I'll definitely be returning to try more of their specials. I went with the classic this time, it's generously sized, super filling, and easily a full meal. Be sure to place your order early, especially on weekends, as pickup times can be a few hours out. That said, once your time comes, pickup is quick and seamless.

    What a hidden gem! I love musubi and to see someone local making it, is awesome. You place an order online and get a text when it is ready. This is just down the street and is a great mid day treat. Will be ordering again!

    Order online https://www.thismusubilove.com Food is ONO! Service is great! These Spam Musubi are online order only and self pick up. Conveniently located in Leucadia at the Beacons Townhomes. Come try all the flavors! Classic Katsu Shrimp BBQ Chicken Mac Salad

    The food was excellent. I would highly recommend the Bachans Chicken, Tropical Heat, and Vegan. Very reasonably priced. Very easy to order. I will be coming back!

    Good grub Superb little takeout spot tucked away in quiet Encinitas, This Musubi Love is making some noise with some seriously good omusubi! I picked up an order of the Katsu Spam and Bachan's Chicken. The Katsu Spam was excellently fried, perfectly crispy, and the saltiness was balanced by a sticky, sweet soy sauce on a bed of sushi rice. The Bachan's chicken came with crunchy pieces of fried chicken glazed with a sweet sauce and spicy mayo on a bed of sushi rice. Really great spot, finding the entrance was a bit tricky (maybe getting a bigger sign could help), but one phone call and they helped me find them no problem.

    Can't get enough of these! Katsu spam is my favorite but you can't go wrong with spam and cheese. Definitely try out the bachan's chicken and shrimp if you have a friend to share with. It's super easy to order online but up you have to order before the lunch or dinner window opens to pick up at the right time. Support local!

    I had been wanting to try this place since I heard about it, and I was not disappointed. They had a bunch of different types of musubi to choose from. I ordered a tempura shrimp, katsu style spam, and regular spam with avocado. All were super delicious and it took less than ten minutes from the time I ordered online, to someone bringing my food out to my car. Musubi is the ultimate comfort food. I'll definitely order from here anytime I'm in Leucadia.

    I went here 3 times in 1 week! Amazing authentic Hawaiian musubis that he makes fresh, and really the only place in Encinitas/Carlsbad you can get any. I love the variations of musibis he makes anThe owner is super chill and I just think his business is unique and creative.

    Cannot rave enough about this place. Amazing musubi, great owners, such an easy, hassle free ordering system. Great happy hour on Thursdays (BOGO 50% off 3-6PM)! Minutes away from beacons, bring your musubi to the beach and catch a gorgeous Leucadia sunset!

The owner, I think, is always here and she is SUPER kind and welcoming, and there is always good vibes in the restaurant. Restaurant is always clean inside and outside. Restrooms are always clean and service is always fantastic and fast. The food is super fresh and satisfying. High quality sushi. Great portions for price. They always accommodate us with extra ginger or spicy mayo upon request, free of charge. We experience today birthday here and they go above and beyond to make the moment super special. Music playing , Hawaiian hats , a big show. Great vibes. (Even coming from someone who doesn't like attention drawn to them) This place deserves 5 stars!

    This was my second visit to Sushi Kuchi in Carlsbad, and while the food was once again excellent,…read morethe service unfortunately wasn't on the same level as my first experience. We started with edamame and miso soup, followed by the Pink Roll and my returning favorite, the Vegas Roll. The Pink Roll was fresh and flavorful, with spicy tuna and cucumber topped with salmon, avocado, and spicy mayo. The Vegas Roll was just as good as I remembered, salmon, crab, avocado, and cream cheese, deep-fried and finished with eel sauce and spicy mayo. There's a reason I ordered it again, and recommend it to anyone going. Unfortunately, customer service was noticeably lacking. We honestly couldn't tell you who our server was. Four different employees seated us, took our order, brought the food, and eventually brought water. Nobody checked on us during the meal or asked if we wanted anything to drink. I finally had to flag down a random waitress just to get water, which was never refilled. It was busier than my previous visit, so I understand the staff may have been stretched thin, but the level of customer care definitely slipped on this visit.

It was beautifully presented, fresh, and delicious! For the price, I thought it was a great deal. It came with three thick slices of seven different types of sashimi, plus uni and seaweed salad. My favorites were the albacore, salmon, and yellowtail. We also tried the caramelized eggplant as an appetizer, and it was so good and addicting! We were completely stuffed by the end of our meal. We sat outside on the patio and loved the bright decor and chill atmosphere. Service was quick, and our server was super sweet and attentive. It was the perfect lunch after a good workout. I would definitely come back!

    Blue Ocean deserves the right to go into my Top 10 list of Sushi restaurants. Everything we…read moreordered was amazing. Each plate had its own design, everything was so beautiful. It's a little more expensive here compared to other Carlsbad sushi restaurants. But with your very first bite, you'll immediately realize why this sushi is a bit more expensive. It's worth it! It was a great day. The sushi melted in your mouth. Each plate of sushi was decorated by a sushi master. I've had my fair share of sushi in my life. I stated eating sushi in 1984, I'm 66 now and I still love a sushi restaurant with a bit of flare. Blue Ocean checked all of the boxes. Nothing, not one thing we ordered disappointed us. It was just the opposite, everything we ordered was absolutely delicious. It really was perfection on a plate. The service here was a level up from other sushi restaurants. It's an amazing day when great food gets combined with stellar service. Then and only then, you know it's going to be a great night out. It only takes one bad bite to send you reeling. The ambiance and the decor of Blue Ocean is top notch. I don't think anyone else can truly compete with them. We moved East 18 months ago. We have not found a sushi restaurant that can even boast reasonable sushi. But Carlsbad can. Well done Blue Ocean, you all made my day! From start to finish, your team was spot on with whatever we needed. It was the perfect storm. Sushi for everyone! We ordered the Earthquake cut role, Padres, 3 cuts of Blue Fin belly sushi, Sweet Shrimp, spicy Yellowtail cut roll, Albacore sushi, and there's more that I can't even remember right now, but we enjoyed every single bite. I highly recommend Blue Ocean. You will not be disappointed.
