Top Best Sushi Places & Restaurants in Cardiff State Beach

"$20 got me hot sake, a saiko miso (with coconut milk and lemongrass) and a bento box with mixed tempura, Cali..."

"When it first opened in 2014, Blue Ocean brought a dose of high design to the neighborhood as well as a welcome infusion of Asian cuisine. It’s since spawned another location in La Jolla, which serves a similar menu of sushi rolls, small plates, and entrees that range from Korean bbq ribs to chicken teriyaki, but the Carlsbad outpost is unique for its Japanese robata grill, which is fired up after 4 p.m. for a lineup of skewers that include pork belly, wagyu meatballs, baby octopus, and asparagus with bacon."

"Pacific BeachMultiple millions were spent outfitting this bayfront restaurant in the Catamaran Resort Hotel and Spa that houses a 25ftcold bar, an 800-gallon aquarium where fluorescent jellyfish float, and an airy patio overlooking Mission Bay. If you’re visiting for lunch, try the Drugstore Burger, a near carbon copy of the famous burger served at The Lodge at Torrey Pines (another luxury hotel property under the same brand as the Catamaran)."

"A post shared by CharollSushi (@charollsushi) on Apr 18, 2019 at 4:30pm PDT. Held at the Catamaran Resort Hotel, this Champagne Brunch isn’t to be missed. Held on Sundays only, you can enjoy your choice of champagne or mimosas alongside a freshly prepared entree as well as your pickings off the all-you-can-eat seafood and cold foods bar."

"Be transported to a tropical beach getaway at this California classic. The booth at table 31 surrounds you with water — you’ll be right under a soothing blue aquarium and have the best views in the house of the swaying palms outside on Mission Bay. Catamaran Resort, Hotel and Spa, 3999 Mission Blvd., Mission Bay."

"Though from the outside this Pacific Beach sushi restaurant looks like just another strip mall restaurant, it is almost undisputedly recognized as San Diego’s best sushi place. This sushi combination is just the beginning — if you’re adventurous you can try local live uni, beef sashimi and more. If you can, try and sit at the sushi bar to meet Chef Ota himself and so you can watch the masters at work and learn what’s fresh."

"Reservations are recommended for Sushi Ota, another candidate for best sushi in San Diego honors. Sushi Ota is way more traditional than, say, Harney Sushi, but the quality of the ingredients makes even the most common rolls and sashimi shine. Standout Quality: Impressively wide selection of fresh fish"

"Then roll south to the city’s best sushi at Sushi Ota in Pacific Beach, followed by tiki cocktails and decor to match at The Grass Skirt. Excerpted from the Fourth Edition of Moon San Diego."

"Modeled after a San Francisco supper club, this award-winning upscale dining room offers steaks and seafood. Fresh ingredients, quality recipes, talented chefs and delightful presentation combine for the ideal dining experience. Try signature items like their griddle jumbo lump crab cakes and dill-crusted salmon."

"Sushi might not be the first thing that comes to mind when you think of a family restaurant. However, if you were to ask my daughter and her friends what their favorite spot is right now they would say Kura. It’s a gamified revolving sushi restaurant where the more plates you empty, the happier the “ninja” is."

"What to know: Prior to the pandemic, wait times were very long for Kura. Now, lines are very short if any as they have a large outdoor dining area!. Also, spaces between tables actually allow for a 6 foot distance between parties."

"This tiny omakase sushi spot has just a dozen or so seats and a menu of impeccable sushi and sashimi, sourced from both local fisheries and the famous Tsukiji Fish Market in Japan and expertly served under the guidance of Chef John Hong. This is the place to slow down and notice every detail—like a fine wine tasting, the items are presented in a specific order designed to complement and enhance each flavor. In non-COVID times, the menu is divided into 50-minute ($50) and 90-minute ($100) experiences, but due to current seating limitations, they’re only serving the 90-minute bill of fare."

"In an omakase dining experience, the menu is (quite literally) out of diners’ hands, but at Hidden Fish, San Diego’s first all-omakase sushi bar, you’re guaranteed to have a fantastic meal. Housed in a minimal 13-seat space, the focus here is on the ingredients and the service. Diners can choose a 50-minute 12-course spread or a premium 90-minute experience, which includes 18 courses."

"Sent my burger back 3 times, finally got a decent bun that wasn't burnt, yes!. It took 4 tries to get the bun not burned!"

"Great burger options (both need and chicken) and delicious seasoned fries and ice cream. We love that they can offer "safe" gluten-free options..."

"The Wells Fargo Museum, located inside the Colorado House, features one of the company’s original 1867 Concord stagecoaches. The recreated and historically-furnished former hotel also houses actual historic telegraph machines and a variety of other memorabilia related to the banking and transportation company.

"We recommend the Family Drop-In Day recommended for families with kids ages 6-12. As the focus changes, check the calendar for what interests you. On these days, kids usually make a craft that reflects the current theme, play games or explore art via a treasure hunt."

"One of the best museums in San Diego to visit in 2019 is, without a doubt, the San Diego Museum of Art. Founded in 1926, this museum is located in Balboa Park. It has the reputation of being the oldest and largest art museum in the region."

"Its front doors are located in a gigantic, cathedral-style facade that took a full two years to build, and they can be seen from every direction if you’re in the neighborhood."
