- NNathanVIPSan Diego •2 reviews5.0Dined todayTakaramono was one of the best surprises I have had in San Diego. A hidden gem, small-hole in the wall sushi restaurant that is the perfect go-to for a special occasion. The service was personable and the food was remarkable. Overall, the experience dining here was memorable!More infoTakaramono sushiPrice: Expensive• Sushi• La Jolla•4.8
- DDanielVIPSan Diego •35 reviews4.0Dined 6 days agoThe food was the highlight of our visit. We ordered a grilled salmon poke, and we truly enjoyed it. However, the service left much to be desired. Lastly, the place could use a bit of a refresh—it’s clear it hasn’t been updated in quite a few years.More infoPacific Catch - La JollaPrice: Expensive• Seafood• La Jolla•4.6
- IImmanuelSan Diego •4 reviews5.0Dined on 25 Dec 2024Food was good, service was good. If I had to say one thing, the back little dining room is nice, but we found ourselves competing with the noise of washing dishes and flatware being dumped from a bin repeatedly.

- SStephenSan Diego •22 reviews5.0Dined on 13 Dec 2024This qualifies as a neighborhood find for us and we are luck to have it. The sushi is wonderful and the service is great. I would describe their menu as delicate; focusing on the wonderful taste of the fish and avoiding heavy sauces. The sauces are excellent, just applied sparingly but sufficiently. Highly recommend.More infoSushi MoriPrice: Expensive• Japanese• La Jolla•4.7
