I’ve been missing kamameshi since our visit to Hokkaido and we loved that this place specializes in it. The scallop and mushroom kamameshi did not disappoint. It was so flavorful and fresh that it didn’t even need any additional flavoring or sauce. The soft shell crab was perfectly crisp and went great with the lemon and salt on the side. This is the perfect place if you want a small bite with some drinks or a fun easy dinner. I wouldn’t say it’s great for groups or a fancy night out since it’s more of a casual vibe but definitely nice to check out.

I have been wanting to come here for so long! As someone who lived in Japan for 3 years, I was looking for authentic Japanese food, not sushi or romen but the authentic dished and I found that here! The inside was small but inviting with plenty if room.

I walked in and was immediately seated at the bar and handed two menus. A food menu and a drink menu. I took a look and decided to stick to water.

For food I ordered the Tako Kara (fried octopus), the Tan Shio (grilled beef tongue) and the Creamy Mentai Udon. The Tako Kara was fried perfectly and paired so well with the lemon, it honestly tasted as good as the ones I had in Japan before. The Tan Shio was cooked perfectly and well seasoned. I added some lemon juice on it but it honestly didn’t need it because it was so good! And the Creamy Mentai Udon was amazing! It was exactly what I was hoping it would be. Creamy, delicious, well balanced with a bit of heat. My first bite of it really just relaxed my shoulders and made me feel so nice because it was so hot and this cold weather really did call for some warm noodles!

Over all it was a great meal. This had got to be one of the best Japanese restaurants in San Diego!

the food was good and typical japanese cuisine. i wish they put more uni on the creamy udon and the seafood kamameshi had like 2 scallops, 3 shrimps, fish roe and it was like 30$. i feel like you can get a better deal in other japanese restaurants, but that’s just my opinion 🙂

A small but very good bowl of curry. The beef tongue is very tender and flavorful, the curry is well seasoned. The portion is a bit small but I enjoyed the food. Great service and cute restaurant.

Soo good. The eel is tender and melts in your mouth. The creamy mentai udon is the kind of dish that tastes even better after each bite—it’s absolutely packed with flavor, and the roe is a nice touch of spice and umami. Portions are perfect for sharing with another person!

Incredible seafood at Wa Dining Okan! Was not prepared for how delicious everything was. We ordered the chirashi bowl, zeitaku udon, scallop and uni carpaccio, and grilled rice ball broth with eel. The uni was amazing. Great service, food comes out quick. We sat on the dog friendly patio. Highly recommend!

Service was horrendous. They need way more than two waitresses for the whole place and I felt so bad for the waitresses because you could tell they were so stressed out. Food was only ok – portion sizes were incredibly disappointing. They did not match their pictures on their menu at all.

Summary of what we got and what was good vs skip:
rib eye skewers = SKIP, so bad
salmon & avocado rice bowl = good, just really small portions & mostly rice
curry udon = i’d recommend! best thing we had of the night, good portion size too

Probably won’t come back, but happy we tried it

I had the hamburg set lunch and mu daughter had katsu curry. The food was outstanding. I loved the salad dressing, the miso soup like my mom used to make,steamed veggies and the hamburg steak was covered freshly grated daikon and so delicious. A reasonably priced and very filling.
We also loved the atmosphere. It is small inside but they do have outside seating.

We were visiting from out of town and heard about this place and wanted to try it out. The restaurant is quite cozy with only a couple of tables and the bar. There was already a line waiting for the place to open when we arrived around d 4:45pm on a Friday. We were waiting in line for a while but then we saw the note that all in a party must be present to be seated, and we had to give up our place in the queue as we have toddlers napping in the car. We were lucky to still have a table once everyone else in the queue were seated and we woke up the kids.
Menu offers a large selection and a lot of things look amazing. We ordered salmon sashimi, scallop skewers, beef tongue skewers, tonkotsu ramen, and kettle rice with sea urchin and salmon roe. Everything was delicious! The sashimi and sea urchin were especially fresh and tasty.
Also want to thank the wait staff for being patient with our party with several small kids, appreciate it!

Had many items here overall good

Sliced wagyu was good.
Ramen was just ok.
Sweet potatoes tempura excellent.
Cartilage very good.
Garlic French fries was lacking any taste of garlic.
Fried squid good.
Udon cabanara feels like it’s missing something saltier like port belly would have been amazing in it but other that was too bland for me.
The mentai udon I liked the best but if you don’t like salty items you may like the uni udon more it’s more balanced.
