Seriously memorable experience. Great personable service, beautiful presentation, and truly delicious fresh fish. The poke bowl had some am I g sauces and sesame seeds, also had a few slices of fresh ginger which paired so well with the dish. The salmon burrito was freshly made and warm. The inside was very nice and clean. The menu was simple to understand. The concept of having fresh fish on display in the front as you order, getting to point and pick out which fish you want is fantastic. Very excited to come back.

Delicious food with quality ingredients.

Poke was fresh, but with an unwanted creamy sauce. Green Thai curry was flavorful, thankfully not sweet, perhaps needed more cooking. Disparate flavors hitting at different times. Nico burrito tasted fresh.

Coconut was one of the best I’ve had in the US. Balanced and not sweet. Pro tip: you can ask them to crack it open to scoop out the flesh

Tried the Nico taco and fish sandwich (Nico style though not on the menu-thanks!), guac and pico. Everything was tasty and creative without being over the top. Needed some salt for our preference (which we got) but other than that, fresh and enjoyed. Bit of a long wait and constant line out the door but was able to grab a table inside.

This place is a total gem. The fish was fresh, fresh, fresh. The flavours were light but punchy. And we’re yearning to come back for more!

Started with the spicy tuna ceviche which was phenomenal. Exquisite tuna — refreshing and punchy flavours.

Then my boyfriend got two tacos — swordfish and halibut — both receiving rave reviews. I got the halibut plate (which is GF without the sauce) and it was yummmmyyyy!

Such a hidden gem. I’m absolutely obsessed with this place and come here 1–2 times a week. Easily the best fish burrito I’ve ever had—super fresh, packed with flavor, and surprisingly light.

They also sell fresh fish to take home and cook, all locally caught by them daily. Supporting local fishermen and entrepreneurs while eating this well just makes it even better. This is a must-visit—I can’t recommend it enough.

My new favorite casual restaurant in San Diego! I would recommend getting anything with the “Nico‘s fish” especially the burrito! Their food is so fresh and leaves you feeling great.

A constant line and the owner walking in fisherman’s boots are definitely a sign of this place being the right choice to eat some seafood and fish.

I went for an ahi tuna salad and a swordfish sandwich with lemon-garlic sauce. Both were amazing. The tuna meat was so tender and delicious, but the swordfish sandwich stole the show as it was simply exceptional. They know how to grill fish (it was very juicy, which isn’t always the case as non-pros overcook it and it is too dry), together with some veggies, that homemade lemon-garlic sauce, and a toasted bread it was simply a heavenly taste.

Their spicy sauce was also spot on + no need to buy drinks as there is free lemon water, which leaves more money to be spent on fish

a word of caution for the hungry: be prepared to wait. Our journey from the front door to finally getting our food took nearly an hour, and we saw the same story unfolding around us. Many people arrived with bright smiles that slowly faded into “hanger,” a common side effect of the long wait. We also had to clean our own table because the staff behind the counter have to prepare the dish and also doing the orders. Staff are tired and unfriendly.

But here’s the good news: the food itself lives up to the hype. The poke bowls were fresh, flavorful, and wonderfully tasty. The quality of the fish and the vibrant mix of ingredients made the entire meal a genuinely delicious experience.

We got the poke burrito and ahi poke. They were both delicious. My only complaint is the sinew left in the poke cuts. It’s the connective tissue that is typically cut out of fresh ahi poke. Still delicious. We enjoyed the service and smiles.
