This is a place I go to when it’s been crazy at work and I just need a place to unwind, enjoy an amazing meal in quiet. The server is so kind and attentive and combined with the ambiance, it’s truly a gem.

Stopped in here for a quick bite while I was waiting for my car to charge. Quick service and excellent quality sushi. The spicy tuna roll was great and he the service was quick and friendly. Definitely recommend stopping in if you’re charging your Tesla and have some time to spare for a quick bite.

I look forward to coming here every week during my lunch break. It is such a calm and relaxed atmosphere where I can unwind and read a book with green tea and my favorite sushi roll. The service is amazing and they are all so kind. I bring friends and family here every chance I get and am always told that this place exceeded their expectations. 100% recommend

Fresh and delicious sushi at Kotobuki! Ordered takeout of the sashimi bowl (tuna, salmon, yellowtail, comes with miso soup), hamachi jalapeño roll, rainbow roll, and dragon roll. The rice tastes really good and makes for a really nice chew. The staff is very friendly and waited about 20 minutes to pick up my order. Recommend!

My friend and I picked this place randomly since the reviews looked decent. It’s a very small restaurant with limited seating. There is plenty of parking in the lot. We were there right at 5pm and seated right away. Server was sweet, but very slow. Toward the end of our meal, we waited at least 20 minutes to get her attention to give us our check. Otherwise, the food was okay, very limited menu, and nothing special about the sushi rolls.
Food review:
Sashimi: (4/5) Simple but tasted pretty fresh.
Seaweed salad: (3/5) Very hard, not that good. We could only eat half because it didn’t taste fresh.
Yellowtail Jalapeno sashimi: (5/5) Very delicious, the jalapeños were very spicy but otherwise fish was very fresh and overall dish had good flavor.
Salmon avocado roll: (4/5) | get these everywhere l go and this one was just ok. Idk if the avocado was off or what but wasn’t my favorite.
Rainbow roll: (4/5) This roll was pretty good! I appreciate it was made with crab instead of shrimp because I have an allergy. Probably my favorite thing we ordered.

Wow! This place serves really fresh tasting sushi. The teriyaki chicken was super tender and a little on the saltier and saucy side, but the rice made it less salty. The beer was delicious also. Overall wonderful owners and servers, very clean and just a hidden gem.

Kotobuki is an absolute gem! We will definitely be coming back. The fish was fresh and absolutely delicious. We got the hamachi jalapeño roll, the soft shell crab roll, the fatty tuna sushi (forgot the name), and the broiled yellowtail cheek. This is a great date night spot with ample parking!

This is a cute place for sushi. The menu was basic which was good, helped me decide easier what I could choose from my options. The fish and rice were fresh. They were the best I have tasted so far in San Diego. The prices are fair. The teriyaki chicken was also very good. My kids ate it all up. I likes that it came on a bed of salad. The miso soup was good as well. I highly recommend for a classic sushi restaurant.

This restaurant is always extremely slow, and the host/server often refuses to seat us, claiming tables are “reserved” even though no one shows up. I went with two coworkers, and the server was rude and took a long time just to take our order. The experience was so poor that I decided not to return and did not leave a tip for a single sushi roll. Honestly, I wasn’t even going to leave a review until I found out the host told my coworker a few days later that her friends were “cheap.” That comment was unprofessional and uncalled for. If the service had been better, I would have gladly tipped. It’s clear they only care about money, and with just one server/host and one cook, the restaurant is poorly managed.

Thoughtful presentation, pleasant atmosphere, excellent food.
Some of the menu options are more subtle than the Japanese food most Americans will be accustomed to, making this a good choice for both those looking for the familiar as well as those hoping to expand their culinary horizons.
