Sushi Ichifuji - Review - Kearny Mesa - San Diego - The Infatuation
"This omakase spot is a whole lot fancier than the rastafarian sushi roll joint it replaced, but it still has an all-are-welcome feel. And although its itamae sushi chefs are more smiley than serious, they also give diners what might be the closest to a Tokyo-style sushi experience as you can get in San Diego without flying across the Pacific. The $160 omakase menu is available at the 10-seat sushi counter or the enclosed patio, and it nimbly shifts with the seasons. That means switching to a chilled chawanmushi (egg custard) during hot summer months and swapping in local lobster and sea urchin for their Japanese counterparts when they’re at their peak." - Candice Woo
