"One of the best dining options in Bankers Hill, Azuki is the local sushi bar that every neighborhood deserves. The modern two-story lounge with outdoor seating provides an intimate and friendly setting for high-end shareables, sushi sets, and one-of-a-kind rolls. Regulars rave about the crispy rice and spicy tuna — a pairing that consists of shiitake mushroom and jalapeños — and from the chef’s selections, the Caviar Three Ways with bluefin toro, uni, and Miyazaki A5 wagyu nigiri." - Roxana Becerril

We are glad we came for an early dinner. Walked in at 5pm since we are unable to get a table reservation earlier. We were told to wait 25 minutes so we took a nice walk at the Balboa park. All the items we ordered are good.

My first time here and it became an immediate staple. You can taste the quality of their ingredients and they pay a whole lot of attention to presenting the sushi well. I’m mostly vegetarian but I still loved it because they had enough options to get me full such as the miso glazed eggplant and the salad and the one vegan roll! The mochi cake and ice cream were amazing! Simple but amazing!

Had an incredible experience last night while visiting from Massachusetts. Want to thank your staff and most importantly our Sushi Chef Brandon for taking such good care of us. World class service, atmosphere and the food was of the highest quality. Will highly recommend and we’ll be back again when visiting the area.

The atmosphere was amazing, it really made you feel welcomed. The service was great. I sat at the sushi bar and out waitress and chef was amazing they both made the experience wonderful. And the food is indescribable. It was amazing and well made/prepared. I normally don’t like eel but they cooked it in a way that tasted awesome. I would 100% recommend this place.

Azuki has the gift. The best sushi in San Diego. The love and respect for food and service is undeniable. If you eat here you will always be glad you did. If I lived local I’d set up a weekly reservation to fill my life with joy.

BEST SUSHI OF MY LIFE… in Cali We love yellowtail so we asked IKU our sushi chef to please make anything with that specific fish, he was happy to do so and also recommended a fatty tuna called ChuToro. it was DELICIOUSLY INCREDIBLE,Melted in you mouth soooo good!. We could not stop ordering it, forever changed our lives when we go to sushi restaurants. Thank you to the staff, the service was amazing, glasses were full at all times. I can’t wait to visit SD again just to come back and hang out with our IKU.

My friends and I walked up a few minutes before opening on a Friday and got a table and was absolutely lucky because the food was fantastic and so many people were being turned away with only 14 tables available. This place is elegant and charming and a great place for a date or simply really good food. Probably the best sushi I've had in a very long time. Don't skip out on the amazing cocktails. The kakuni -pork belly dish - was so tender and melted in my mouth, still salivating thinking of the dish. If I can visit only one place in San Diego - Azuki would be hands down my place.

DOR:42724 WOW! This place was really good. 👌 would return back in a heartbeat! We had what felt like half the fish menu! Did not care about the bill on this one. The sashimi and nagiri were 9 outta 10 and had about 5 rolls, all 9 outta 10 quality price tho. Gotta pay to play. Please see the pixs for more info! 0 problems giving it my seal of approval #gorditoapproved #fatboyapproved
