It took 15 mins to get our drinks, 30 to get complementary edemame and 40 mins to get our rolls. They were mainly cone rolls. The food was fresh and delicious. The fish was so tender.

First off this place is super cute and the food presentation is just like the pictures on the menu,…read morebeautiful! For the most part the food was delicious with some exceptions. What was on point was 5 stars but what was off was off. The fried rice was delicious, a work of art! I had the mixto with chicken, beef, and shrimp, they were all delicious. The rice was topped with the crab like filling you would get in a California roll and some stringed beets and carrots. One ingredient that was a bit odd was the cream cheese. The not good was the ceviche roll had an overall bitter taste that was doable with enough sauce but the roll was very wet making the rice soggy. I would not recommend this roll. Also the udon was cooked well with yummy tempura but the broth was just plain weird. The location, view, and service were all great but the bottom line is the flavor, sometimes they nailed it and other times, not so much.

Food is amazing. Unfortunately, they aren't the best place to go when they open. They open at…read moreexactly 11:30 but when we showed they said they weren't ready and need at least an hour to set up. An hour after opening is ridiculous. 2 stars may be low but as someone that works in a restaurant this is ridiculous. Like I said at the start, the food is great. But they need to be more prepared, they should be ready right at opening time!

So I was waiting until I actually dined in and had the full experience to write a full review but…read morenow that I've moved out of the area, I'm afraid I won't get that chance now even though this place was bookmarked for me to try for the longest even while I was in the neighborhood. So I ordered through GrubHub and I still think everything was delicious! They have a combination of Chinese foods and Japanese sushis. I ordered an Adam and Eve Roll which was good. The 2 main stars of the show were the scallop roll and the salt and pepper chicken wings! Okay where do I even start?! The scallop roll came from the basic rolls so I was expecting it to be pretty basic. No one told me they were going to put raw scallops omg it was sooo good and soft! Melted like butter in my mouth. Then the salt and pepper chicken wings might be up there on top wings in SD because not only do they load that thing with garlic but they also dice up tiny red bell peppers and omg what a game changer!

I love Tsunami! We…read morealways have really good and fast service here. The beers are always cold. Drinks are delicious and aesthetically pleasing. Tsunami has an awesome Asian Mexican fusion menu. My go to roll is the OMG, but you truly can't go wrong. The sushimi melts in your mouth! And we tried the mole dumplings are delicious. Completely out of my comfort zone and everything I try on their menu happily surprises me. Can't wait to come back and try even more items! Worth the money yall! Come check it out!

The food was excellent, but unfortunately the service was very disappointing…read more We visited on a Saturday night, and the restaurant was not busy at all. There appeared to be four servers on the floor, yet most of the time they were standing around while only one seemed to be actively attending tables. After being seated, we waited approximately 10 minutes before anyone offered us water. Fortunately, we received menus right away, which allowed us to place our food order at the same time our server finally came to take our drink order. Throughout the meal, our server was largely absent. To make matters worse, the main dish I specifically came to order was forgotten. When I reminded our server, she assured me it would be out shortly. Fifteen minutes later, after my wife and I had already finished our roll, I asked to cancel the missing dish. Once again, I was told it was almost ready. The item I ordered should not have taken nearly an hour to prepare, and it became clear that the order had been forgotten entirely. What made the experience even more frustrating was that the restaurant remained slow the entire evening, with several servers standing around and no obvious reason for the long waits for drinks and service. The food itself was great, but the poor service significantly detracted from the overall experience. Very disappointing.

It's alright I guess. At least within IB, you don't exactly have many options. I got a dragon roll,…read moreand it was normal? The shrimp is kinda meh, but otherwise there's nothing specific to complain about (well okay, there's lots of things I could complain about, but nothing too major) The portion of pickled ginger is a bit bigger. Like with other joints, I'm curious as to what they have other than sushi. This place does have quite a lot of other options as well, including bentos, ramen, etc. I seem to recall having the bentos here years ago and thought it was not bad, so I decided to try their ramen. Americans do seem very confused about types of ramen as tonkotsu ramen is almost always listed separately. Most likely, we discovered that this phrase sells as Americans want that meaty broth. Miso, shoyu, and shio describe the source of seasoning, the "tare," while tonkotsu is a form of "dashi," the broth umami. So probably your most common ramen is a tonkotsu miso; they're not mutually exclusive. As a result, it's more common for Japanese restaurants to list your options for "tare," without listing the broth because it's assumed that the base is tonkotsu no matter what you pick. Your actual contrast to tonkotsu would be options like chicken broth or niboshi. Anyways, I got a spicy tonkotsu ramen, and....I'm not sure if this can really be called tonkotsu even. Ironically, the broth has almost no meat flavor, but the seasoning is pretty good. It's definitely not under-salted, although I don't think the flavor has much depth and the consistency is a tad thin. Plus, the pork in it was actually big, fat, and juicy. I can't believe I'm saying this, but maybe a little bit too fatty even. But I still loved it. On the other hand, no menma, no kombu, and not enough green things. It does have a decent amount of bean sprouts. I guess there's no kamaboko either, but in my experience, the presence of surimi is inconsistent, and it's more ubiquitous in American-Japanese ramen anyways. Both the seasoning and noodles are kinda Chinese instead of Japanese. I already pointed out that the broth doesn't taste like tonkotsu, but the noodles are also way too thin. I mean, you can technically have thin ramen noodles, but even the texture doesn't seem right to me. There's also just a lot of broth and not much noodle imho. Some of that isn't surprising as I don't think there's anyone Japanese here; I can hear them speaking Cantonese in the back. Finally, they provided three shrimp with my bowl of ramen for some reason. I think this would be more common with udon or soba; it's rather unusual for ramen. Also, those shrimp would always be bigger and crispy. I'm pretty sure these are the same as the ones in the sushi rolls. The sushi rolls hide their taste and texture. But laid out like this, you can see that these are pretty subpar, small and soft, a very sad imitation of shrimp tempura. Three stars seems fair.

Been here server times and always go with our friends who go there all the time…read more Waiters are nice and service is great. I wonder sometimes if they're nicer cause they know our friends lol.

A good little Sushi/Ramen hidden gem in Chula Vista. Heard a lot about this place so I finally came…read more& yes I'm a fan. First let me start with the customer service, it was great, from the door to getting seated to the waiters checking on us & the cooks smiling & the speed & quality of the service was all great. And the prices are very reasonable, they don't open till 5 tho, for dinner basically, weekends can get busy so get there early. The food was very good, I got the Chula Vita Ramen & I'd get it again, very filling & flavorful. The sushi was very fresh & good & filling as well, Abre La Boca Mucho was our fav roll, it can be shared with another person for sure, Viva Chula Vista was a good roll too. Miso soup was ok & no garlic edamame they have lemon butter edamame, if you like lemon & butter flavor you'll like it, it was ok but it lack a bit of flavor for me. My fav item here was the Jalapeño Popper as an appetizer, 8 pieces & man let me tell you, it was mouth watering & on point, it's a must to start with. Overall I good little spot & we come again for sure, keep up the good work Naruto & see you soon :)
