"Yes, you should dine alfresco at almost every other San Diego restaurant, but at Himitsu, you'll want one of those eight coveted front-row seats at the sushi bar, a semicircular table that offers an up-close view of Chef Mitsu Aihara and his team. (If you don't get a bar seat, there are 20 other seats on the leafy, semi-covered, heated patio). Thanks to its compact size, location at a busy intersection in La Jolla, and exquisite sushi, it's often crowded, and reservations are a must. You can order à la carte—look for the wagyu with uni, soft shell crab roll and kinme dai sushi (snapper)—but do the omakase and thank us later." - Archana Ram
