Only had time for a quick lunch bite at Chef JUN but it was so satisfying! Food as art always pleases me and this plate was Instagram worthy! Tuna was fresh and beautifully marinated. The avocado lent a creaminess to the dish. The small fruit bites added sweetness at the finish. I will be back for a full meal soon!! They are open all day so you can get a full meal anytime. The service is so friendly and quick. I like sitting at the sushi bar. It's a clean Japanese inspired interior and very relaxing. Full open parking lot too!
We love the other Chef JUN location and have been several times! We had some friends in town visiting and since we were close to the Point Loma location we knew it would be perfect for lunch! We stopped in and got rolls this time and they were delicious! Our server was extremely friendly and she has also helped us out over at the Bay Ho location! Shoutout Elena!! You're the best!
We popped in because we w were craving Japanese food, and the last few times we visited were great! We were seated right away in a cute booth. The food came out very promptly. We had some gyoza, tempura, and two rolls - avati & red dragon. Everything was tasty as usual & Lily took good care of us. The place is very clean, charming, and spacious. I mean who doesn't love Cherry blossoms and moon light fixtures? I miss the little cat chopsticks holders (neko hashioki) but other than that, everything was great! We'll be back soon! Arigato gozaimasu!
Stopped by after picking up family at the airport and we needed to grab something at a drug store. We saw Chef Jun and decided to give it a try. Loved that they had really good happy hour specials, so we ordered drinks and edamame as each of us weighed the menu options. We ended up getting several rolls for some of us to share and one of us got a poke bowl. We all enjoyed the meal. .
So, what do you get when you put two people who absolutely love sushi together at Chef Jun Point Loma? A straight up f'n excellent experience! From the moment we walked in, the cherry blossom and full moon decor set the tone. It was warm, inviting and a little bit magical. Sat in a booth - didn't go for the counter because we were hungry and we both can and planned on eating. Service was excellent. Lilly took care of us like we were longtime regulars. Attentive. Friendly. Fun. Hospitable. It's people like Lily and how she took care of us like she did - just one of the reasons the experience was memorable. Then the food. The fish. The fresh clean flavors and presentation. Imagine a staircase to heaven with Nigiri on each level that curves up and around a bowl of Sashimi. Toss in two hand rolls and I wish I had taken a photo of it all. I only shot the individual servings. BTW, it was the Sushi Kaidan for two that we shared. As for parking, it was a Saturday night and it wasn't an issue. In a large shopping plaza, lots of open AND FREE spaces. If you're even remotely into Sushi, do yourself a favor and go to Chef Jun. It's elevated. Memorable. You're welcome!
When you get 2 Yelp Elites together who are both sushi lovers, you can expect an extraordinary dining experience. To maximize our experience, we went for the SUSHI KAIDAN for two. This was the deluxe assortment of sushi placed on a staircase of sushi heaven. There were 2 pieces of each of the following: amberjack, king crab legs, black cod, black sea bream, halibut, red snapper, shrimp, Hokkaido scallops, yellowtail belly with Hokkaido Uni, salmon belly with salmon roe, bluefin tuna with caviar, and toro with truffle. These were nice thick cuts and the presentation was beautiful. We loved how some of them were served on charred rice that gave it a rich smoky flavor. Twenty-four pieces of sushi was a lot, but on top of that, the Sushi Kaidan came with 2 handrolls and a sashimi plate that had the fried shrimp heads, Kumamoto oysters, salmon belly, yellow tail belly, bluefin tuna, red snapper, and shima aji. All of this was $199, which was a great deal! Honestly, the quality far exceeded our expectations and surpassed some of the high end Omakase restaurants that we've been to. Our lovely server, Lily, took excellent care of us, always making sure our water was refilled and ensuring we were satisfied with the food. We were both impressed with the quality of the fish and loved that it was reasonably priced. Loved the ambiance as well. Next time someone asks me what's a great sushi restaurant that I'd recommend, I will be sure to say it's Chef Jun! I look forward to a repeat visit soon!
The ambiance is very clean, minimalist except for the giant cherry blossom trees next to every booth. The service was just okay. With how not crowded it was, I would expect better service considering how many people were working there. Oh well The food was really good. The ramen was a lovely surprise. Proper toppings. Great seaweed and just the right amount of togarashi to give it gentle heat. I'll be back.
Came here for a late lunch on superbowl Sunday. We were regulars of the Bay Ho location before the Point Loma one opened up. We came to this location because it stays open mid day. Ambiance inside is really cute with the pink cherry blossom trees everywhere. Service was attentive without being overbearing. Food is always fresh. We ordered the spicy garlic edamame, mixed tempura, rainbow roll, salmon skin hand roll, chirashi bowl, and the spicy chicken bento. Tempura could have crispier but the shrimp was cooked perfectly - not overdone like most places. Fish was all delicious. The yellowtail belly, salmon belly, and the scallops were all scrumptious. Spicy garlic edamame (and regular edamame) are always delicious - a must order. Prices are as expected in today's economy, but the chirashi bowl definitely needs more rice.
Hidden gem, in a strip mall in Point Loma. Took my teenage boys and we all really enjoyed our food. I had the ginger lime mule mocktail, and we shared the gyoza and tuna tataki as starters. Kid #1 and I shared two nigiri: uni and toro. Then we each had two rolls: BayHo, rainbow, Orange, and Ruby Red. Kid #2 is a little less adventurous and had the salmon misoyaki, which he raved about. Everything was fresh, really delicious, and the service was kind and attentive. Definitely going back!
My guy and I stopped here while we were shopping at TJMaxx/Homegoods nearby. This has now become our new favorite every day sushi spot! We were shocked by the quality for the price we paid. We loved the setup and our server was amazing (I can't remember her name)! I tried the Calpico Chu-Hi to start and wow! It is insanely good and dangerous! It has such a lovely taste and texture to it. I easily could've kept drinking it with no complaints. We started with the Chicken Karaage and it's different from any other chicken karaage I've ever had because they air fried them. These weren't greasy/oily, but still packed with flavor. I didn't use the sauce it came with either. For sushi, we tried the Avati roll (had a nice kick to it, but I would order it without pepper next time just because I'm not a big fan of pepper), the Chef's Special roll (very good again but would not have the pepper. I forget what fish was on top, but it was very buttery), and some Unagi (Eel) Nigiri (the BEST eel nigiri my guy and I have ever had! It was a huge piece of eel that was insanely buttery!) This place is too good. I wanna keep it a secret from the rest of you, but I also want you to experience the goodness.
Food: The food was amazing! We got the Jun San and I will say that each item for the set was amazing! The standout for sure was the 4 pc chef choice sushi as each item was well thought out and made me want to grab another. But ofc, all the other items were great too since each one was well thought out so you're getting more than just simply a regular sushi/sashimi bite. Location: There is plenty of parking in the area! Not only that, there is plenty of indoor seating so it doesn't feel like you need to worry about reserving really early on! Service: The service is definitely the standout! Our server Luis was very helpful in answering all of our questions about what to select and gave his thoughts on the menu and what each item would be best suited for the occasion! He even gave tips on how to best enjoy different items of the menu such as like adding more soy sauce vs having no need for more. The ppl there also made sure we could go at our pace vs a slower pace if we wanted to enjoy a true omakase experience. Overall: Overall, it is definitely worth trying! The pricing is definitely justified for not only the food but also the experience! I would come here again and recommend others to come! read more
**August 2026: Sunday Evening Visit** My friend and I were in the mood for a sashimi dinner while we were in San Diego, but unfortunately, many of the hot spots required reservations. We decided on Chef Jun since they allowed walk-ins, and the setting seemed like a great environment! With the location right in the middle of a plaza and ample parking Sushi Jun seemed like a great place to enjoy a good meal. We shared the Sushi Kaidan for two ($199), which included an assortment of sashimi and sushi, plus a handroll and miso soup. Honestly, the presentation was really impressive and for the amount of food provided seemed like it was appropriately priced. They arranged the sashimi pieces on a stair-like display, and in the center they had a bowl of freshly cut sashimi. We were also given the option to eat the shrimp head raw or fried. We both went for fried, and it was really good. The fried shrimp was crispy and made it easy to eat the whole thing. The setup was very impressive, and the snow crab sushi bite was my favorite piece. The "meat" was really tender, and against the slight char on the outside, the contrast really amplified the crab's sweetness. The ebi sushi bite was served raw and was very refreshing, and it was my next favorite. But for some reason, the other sushi and sashimi pieces weren't memorable. I think either the fish flesh was really bland, or other ingredients like the wasabi or other paired ingredients just overpowered the piece and the flavor combos just didn't tickle my senses. The top, more premium fish was the otoro. It was beautifully rich and fatty, but the truffle definitely overpowered it, which was a shame. They also provided a complimentary dessert - but it was very heavy and dense, which also did help me leave with a great impression. The meal was okay which really bums me out since I love sushi and sashimi. read more

the food here is so good! we got the Jun San menu and was not disappointed, they take you through appetizers, sashimi and nigiris. our favorite was the seared cod which had so much flavor and was a pleasant surprise because i would not have ordered this on my own. our server Luis was amazing and patient, he walked us through all the options and always made sure to check up on us as we ate. the parking was easy as it is in a shopping plaza in sports arena. the interior is so pretty was high ceilings. we will be back! read more

I was looking for a low-key dinner spot for my family and I. Thankfully, we came across Chef JUN. They have great options, great servers and the food was delicious. I ordered udon, a few sushi rolls and a hand roll. The food tasted fresh and my family loved it. read more

Beautifully designed! The decor with cherry blossom trees and moon lamps hanging from the ceiling starts off the dining experience with a fantastic impression. In addition, even though the restaurant became quite busy, the noise level is manageable and does not distract from the experience. Our server greeted us happily and enthusiastically. She acknowledged that one of us was celebrating a birthday. Service was provided at a great pace to start, but as it became busier and busier, (note: I overheard our server say that it was busier than she had ever seen), there were two mix ups in orders. Both were dishes bright to our table that actually either belonged to another table or were duplicate orders. We politely corrected and declined the additional plates. They offer three distinct sushi courses at reasonable price points. If you are comfortable with putting your trust in the chefs (they ask about allergies) then this may be your choice of culinary adventure. It was ours and we were pleasantly surprised (see photos). The food was fantastic and fresh. The only item to note, as it was the first time to taste for one in our party, was the uni. Lots of hype with uni as a special treat, but unfortunately the coloration and a bit dark and the taste was a bit fishy. Not the fresh creamy, ocean taste of the finest uni. One small disappointment in what was so many other home runs. I always judge a meal by one simple metric: would i come back? The answer for Chef Jun...yes read more
Why haven't I come here sooner LOL Food: Avati Roll (7/10) -- Peppery with a nice balanced sauce, not too heavy. A little spicy kick but nothing overwhelming. It had that seared tuna flavor that I love because it's a bit smokey. Orange Roll (8.5/10) -- This is going to sound dramatic but it was an explosion of flavor the second I tasted it LOL. Super flavorful, fresh, and CITRUSY. Light spice that just boosts the flavor without taking over. Fire Fire Roll (8/10) -- I was told this is their most popular roll across all the Chef Jun locations and really represents them. It was really good! Creamy filling, seared smoky top, and a subtle eel sauce flavor that ties everything together. Service: The loveliest service ever. We asked for recommendations and got a detailed rundown of their most popular dishes. He even suggested options based on our preferences. Constantly checking on us, really friendly, and very conversational. Ambiance: Such a lovely sushi spot. I love cherry blossoms, so having the trees as the main decor all around the restaurant was honestly so fun for me. Even the utensils were cute! They have a tiny cat as a chopstick holder. The space is clean, well-decorated, and even though it was a bit crowded, it wasn't loud at all. A calm and chill dining experience. read more
16-Nov-2025 Today our normal sushi spot was closed, so we tried Chef JUN and it was a very pleasant surprise. The ambiance is the best we've experienced in San Diego. It is one of those "instagramable" type restaurants with the beautiful fake pink trees and good lighting. We tried the house rolls and they were amazing!! With no wait and great service we think this place may have just snatched the number spot for sushi in San Diego. Thanks, Ashley & Lindsey read more

Was looking for a new sushi spot to try and decided to come here, saw that it had good reviews and it did not disappoint. Everything tasted very fresh and the appetizers were fantastic, including the stuffed jalapeños. The service was great and our server was very attentive. Great decor and lots of space as well. Would definitely come back if I was in the area! read more
I love a good lunch special and Chef Jun delivers with the Poke Bowl and Miso Soup combo. Food came out beautifully prepared and was quite fast. The rice at the bottom of my bowl had a fabulous nutty taste, and it was piled high with fresh greens, pickled cucumbers, seaweed salad, avocado, and corn. I always find corn to be kind of a funny poke topping, but I know it's popular. The server was very attentive and came to me right away. The ambience at this location is much nicer than the original location at Bay Ho, and I venture to say that my dining experience overall was better! I've been to the original location twice, and was not impressed. I also love the super chill music that was playing in the background. My lunch was so relaxing. I really enjoyed myself. read more

Wow!! What a treat this meal was. If you're looking for a more casual, at your table omakase experience without the hard to make reservation, multiple course seating or high price tag ($$$$ vs $$$), the Kaidan is your best option. Perfect for date night or solo date night as they offer it for two or one persons. The sushi kaidan for two came with 12 different types of premium nigiri, 2 hand rolls and an assortment of sashimi. Plenty of food for the price you pay and high quality fish. I left extremely satisfied. My mouth is watering just thinking about this place! read more
Made a reservation and didn't wait to order but the later it got, the place got really packed. I thought the food was good, the salmon oshi was my leas favorite but the quality of the fish was great. The main downside was the service. It took us almost a whole hour to get all of our food and our server never filled our water, I had to ask other workers for more water. I definitely think they are understaffed. The restaurant itself was very pretty and looks clean, there's Sakura trees everywhere. read more
Chef Jun Sushi hits all 4 corners of being an AMAZING restaurant. Food, service, ambiance, and decently priced! My husband & I go to Chef Jun Point Loma probably too much honestly, but this place has been so reliable and lovely each time we can't help it! Food: 10/10 Sushi & appetizers have never disappointed. Food arrives to your table FAST. As someone who hates waiting long, I appreciate that tremendously. Sushi rolls are a great size. Not too small and not overly large and full of too much rice either! Not a fan of sushi with way too much rice. Fish is always tasing fresh and seasoned so well! Salmon oishi is soo yummy and unique! And we love trying a different roll each time we go! Service: 10/10 Besides the food being incredible, the staff and service is always more than pleasant. Honestly feels like they went through hotel hospitality training because our servers are always so hospitable!! I wish all restaurants had such attentive servers because it truly does add to the ambiance and experience of it all. Overall, I'm a Chef Jun stan and I hope this second location continues to flourish because it is truly a great sushi restaurant. read more

I have always been a huge fan of Chef Jun, been going to their original location for a long time. I came here for lunch and discovered they have the best lunch. 16.99 for a giant poke bowl and miso soup is a crazy deal! It was so much food with very premium fish. Thank you Chef Jun read more
The food here was decent. Got the crispy roll and it was flavorful and delicious. We did get it to go since we had our dog with us so ate it outside the restaurant at the tables there. It was good. I think it would better if eaten inside and served with all the sauces added for you but was happy they didn't add them on a to go order or the crispiness of the roll wouldn't get more soggy. Partner enjoyed the havati roll as well. More than average in price but the freshness I think was worth it. read more

Came here for dinner Saturday evening, we had a reservation but there were plenty of tables available. Was pleasantly surprised of the value and quality of sushi here! We got the Kun combo which included miso soup, 3 piece shashimi, 3 piece nigiri and a hand roll. Everything was super fresh and looked high quality! Was also impressed that it also came with uni as well! Everything was really flavorful and presented beautifully. Our server was also really friendly and helpful with describing the different dishes. Will def come back again to try what else they have on the menu! read more

Amazingly tasty sushi in a beautiful space under the cherry blossoms. Almost as good as the sushi was the presentation and dishes they were placed on. Our sushi arrived spaced out so that we could enjoy a dish before the next one was brought out. read more

Solid place to stop by for a mid-afternoon snack. It wasn't too busy, though we went in around 2pm on a Sunday, so we were seated immediately. Ambiance was just right for the time of day. The presentation of the food was very nice and the staff was knowledgeable about the menu. Food was great, I would recommend to a friend and would come back if in the area and it was convenient. read more
This place is really cute inside! Big open floor plan with cherry blossom trees lining the tables. Each table is set up with tiny cute porcelain cats which our daughter loved. Service was quick and friendly. We ordered 3 rolls and a ramen. Sushi was okay, nothing crazy spectacular but definitely not the worst. Green tea seemed a bit more like matcha which was interesting. Enjoyed the experience but don't think we would return. There were quite a few other patrons inside so maybe it was just us and what we ordered. read more
A different and more modern vibe compared to the Bay Ho location. Clean & Fresh. We did the Sushi Kaiden for 2 and a half size tofu ramen for the little. Broth was great, and presentation was lovely. Service was quick and efficient. No complaints here! read more

I love it here. Thank you for the awesome service, thank you for hearing me when I said I love uni and including it on my chefs special, thank you for not judging me when I ordered a second small sake. I spent the whole time on my phone at the bar solo and you guys were so perfect. Cheers read more
Came here on a Friday night at 7:30pm with a reservation. I put in the notes that it was my birthday but nothing was brought out or said about it. Food was mid, not great. The only things that were good were the handroll and the miso soup. My group ordered the Jun San ($48). The rice on the sushi tasted old and dry, and we weren't the only ones that thought this way as the table behind us left all their rice on a plate. Soba was way too sweet and did not taste right. One of the seared fish tasted like it was seared 15 minutes before they served it to us. I liked our waitress and she explained each dish to us. The service was good and she did what she could. However each round took nearly 30 minutes to come out and a lot of tables were just sitting there waiting not looking the happiest either. Will not be coming back here again as it was a bad experience, not worth the $200 for 4 people that we spent. read more

Chef Jun should be a San Diego sushi staple, and we cannot rave enough how much we enjoyed our visit!! The Rosecrans location has a large (and free) parking space. Around 6pm on a Friday, the restaurant was walk in, but we still made a reservation; however, by 7pm, there was a wait). We had excellent service! From being greeted so happily and able to choose a booth under the gorgeous cherry blossom decor to the attentive service and even taking our photos at all the angles. We opted for the Kaidan For Two, which is similar to omakase - chef's choice of nigiri, sashimi, and hand roll - served on a wooden masterpiece. A MUST TRY. It was a variety of fresh seafood, from salmon, tuna, white fish, uni, octopus, shrimp, squid, etc., all with an amazing balance of natural sweet and umami. They were all well complemented with an assortment of roe, truffle, real wasabi. The absolute best was the fatty tuna with truffle. We'll take more please! A sheet with all the different fish would be helpful, even with the clear detailing of each by the waitress; we could not avoid the intruding customers wanting a take a picture of our meal before we could even do so. With giant portions, this could easily cost more elsewhere! At the end of our meal, Chef Jun came out to greet us and serve our cheesecake, which was also delicious - rich and balanced citrus! Such a friendly chef who is as talented as those of the great Soichi Sushi and Sushi Sonagi. read more
Glowing reviews drew me here on a friday night. Expansive seating and very full of patrons but we got a table in about 5 min. They had some pre set menus and I picked their second tier which was 45 dollars. It had edemame, sashimi, nigiri, a hand roll, a unique salmon rice dish, miso soup and udon on soba noodles. The acoustics were rather intense and it was pretty loud. Not super relaxing, but if you have a child you wont feel to guilty about them not being super quiet I guess lol when items were brought to the table they were explained, however I had to ask someone at one point to please take the clearly empty plates that built up. Also the items were not delivered in the order of the menu which is not the norm for most japnese spots as they have a reason behind when items are served. It took a very long time to actually get the food too. I felt over all things were good, but the sashimi although fresh wasnt texturely super melt in your mouth. The nigiri was yummy. I think next time I would just get the 7 peice option they have. Udon base could have had more umami flavor. I really like the hand roll and the salmon dish they had. It was like pureed salmon that was then blow tourched on rice with a light sauce. There are gems for sure on the menu, but on a busy night some service/expediting was lost for sure, and some items could be tweaked to bring them to another level. read more
