Cherryfish is awesome! I came here with a group of 11 girls, which can be hard on any server, and our waitress was amazing! They always checked in with us, food came quick, and she was very friendly! The vibe inside is really cute & I can see the outdoor patio being beautiful when it gets a bit warmer. I got the spicy tuna on crispy rice and it was delicious!!!! The edamame (black garlic oil) was INSANE, SO GOOD! I would 100% come back and order those two again. Miso soup was also soooo good. A few of my friends got sushi rolls and said they weren't life changing, but my experience was fantastic personally. There are limited roll options, I do wish there were more read more

Happy hour review: wed-sun 5-6:30pm Stopped in to check out happy hour at a newish upscale sushi place in PB. This location has been a variety of restaurants over the years that don't seem to last. Cherryfish is pretty inside. Happy hour is offered at the bar or a sort of strange long skinny table in the middle. We sat at the bar which is way too high for the bar chairs. You literally feel like a child trying to sit at the grown up table. So odd. We were brought menus but then pretty much forgotten as the staff chatted and waited for the dinner rush. Eventually someone came over to take our order and we ordered the HH wine and a couple of appetizers. The food was brought out by the food runner without any plates, silverware or napkins. I had to bug the bartender/bar back for those. Then when the sushi roll came out I had to again bother them for chopsticks, soy sauce, dishes. He gave us one soy sauce dish to share, I guess. The food was ok, the roll was mostly vegetables with small pieces of fish on top. For a restaurant of this price point, I wouldn't return to try the full menu. The service just wasn't there, I don't want to feel like a bother to get basic things. Sad, because I wanted to like this place. read more

Cherryfish - Japanese Near Me - San Diego, California

Tried it once... Ambience is cute. Drinks didn't have much alcohol, especially for $19 lychee drink. Service was a little weird and wonky with multiple staff coming to the table including the hostess requesting our orders and bussing. But it was constant repeat interruptions and no server communication with one another. Food was mediocre. I can find better sushi elsewhere. Probably good for younger crowd in PB but not for anyone who truly values their dining experiences. read more

Cherryfish is a new Japanese fusion restaurant in Pacific Beach. The location is small but well designed. The outdoor patio is comfortable and cozy. Inside has bar seating and family counter seating too. Booths and tables are available and roomy. The staff is so friendly and well trained. Happy hour menu has delicious selections from sushi nigiri and specialty rolls to katsu and uni bites. Every dish we saw coming out looked fresh and craveable. It's going to do very well in this location. Parking is an issue but it's on the street and free. They do not have spirits for cocktails; just sake, beer and wine. We will be back to try other plates! read more

A new wave of flavor just hit @pacific.beach @cherryfishsd creations by Chef Marcus blends refined technique with fresh coastal style. The menu features miso soup, swordfish skewers, kimchi flatbread, beef tenderloin, spiny lobster, lychee crème brûlée with strawberry miso, and matcha affogato with sesame ice cream. It's the kind of place you visit once and immediately plan your return. read more

We started off with drinks and not going to lie my drink was horrible lol i got the shishito because i wanted the smoke bubble on top i saw in pictures. It looked cool but was hard to get down. That being said it doesn't change my rating because the food blew it out of the park. The crispy tuna was hands-down the best I've ever had. Then came the kanpachi sashimi, the fish was incredibly fresh and melted in your mouth, i think about this dish regularly. We also did the uni and wagyu fried rice, both insanely good. Service was great and i liked the moody lighting and cherry blossom decor. read more

Ambience (5/5): I came here with a friend after hearing it recently open, and the overall aesthetic was really great. I think this is probably the crowning point of the restaurant. Service (3/5): I think it was fine, our server was a bit odd. We asked about the menu for recommendations but we didn't really get anything concrete in return. It sorta felt like they didn't know the menu well.. Food (3/5): We ordered a good number of items off the menu to try things out, and most of the items were lackluster than that excellent. I think the fantastic items included the Sashimi Kanpachi and the Swordfish. Both of these were very flavorful and great. We couldn't help but notice though that the quality of the dishes varied a little bit between our table and other tables--which is what leads me to remove a star. The other items we got were: (+ positive) Shishito great (+ positive) the Spicy Tuna dish, which was good; (= neutral) the Spicy lobster roll, which was fine but was a bit heavy on the mayo; (- negative) the Toro roll, which was fine but there was so much daikon in the roll, it destroyed the overall taste and texture of the roll itself; (-- very negative) the Salad, which is very, very small, very salty and lackluster for about $15. (- negative) the Lychee Creme Brulee, which was good but it was very sweet and hard to finish by the end. It felt more like a pudding to be honest. Overall, the aesthetic of the place is the highlight of the restaurant; but I do hope that this place can continue to grow in quality control of its dishes. I think many items swung too far into their flavor profiles that could use some more moderation. read more

Cherryfish has opened where a longtime cantina followed by a short-lived wagyu restaurant used to be in the PB neighborhood. One of the owners also operates the cafe right next door on the corner of the street. During my visit, the outdoor front patio wasn't fully set up yet. The dining area layout didn't change much with a bar in the back right of the room. A central countertop and multiple small tables provided the rest of the seating capacity. The interior of this place has always been intricately decorated, and the revamp was no exception. There was plenty of hanging greenery, and the wall murals were creative. The grand opening was late last week in the middle of the rainstorms that hit the SD area. Because of the precipitation, the opening night crowd was likely much less than anticipated. I was able to snag an empty spot at the bar that could seat about 10 people. The menu concept was Japanese fusion with about half of the offerings split between appetizers and shareable small plates. Sushi, sides, large plates, and skewers cooked over charcoal made up the rest of the categories. I initially ordered the Swordfish Belly Skewers and Spicy Lobster Rolls which were two of the ten 'Share' choices. Perhaps it was the day one jitters, but the kitchen was very slow in preparing my food. It couldn't have been due to a large volume of orders because the dining area was not even half full. I think the staff noticed the long wait and offered a complimentary dish of Shishito Peppers to pass the time. The peppers were blistered nicely, however I only ate a few as I wasn't a fan of the texture. After half an hour, the two dishes were brought out. The skewers came as a pair, and each had a tranche of grilled swordfish belly. Tangerine, mizuna, and beet char siu were the other ingredients that decorated the plate. The fish was cooked well while the tangerine's fruitiness provided a refreshing citrus contrast. The rolls came as a duo on sesame brioche buns. Instead of New England lobster as the seafood filling, local spiny lobster was used as the protein. Yuzu tartar and crispy leeks were the toppings. The tartar was heavy and obscured the meat. I would've preferred less dressing to be used. I still had an appetite after consuming these items so I ordered the Snow Crab Handrolls to finish my meal. Again, it took quite a long time for the food to be prepared. The two rolls were wrapped in sesame leaf with avocado, cucumber sunomono, kimchi mayo, and smoked trout roe as the accompaniments. The last component was quite noticeable as the salty trout eggs added a smoky flavor to enhance the crab meat. Pricewise, the cost was a bit expensive for the portion size, but I have experienced worse at similar upscale Asian restaurants. The bartenders who served me were very pleasant and apologetic for the waiting time. For their service along with the quality of the food, I rounded the rating of my dinner at Cherryfish to a four star level. read more

Came here the other night with a big group. We sat inside, the space has a lot of room for tables and pretty decorations. Our server Paige was friendly and attentive and took good care of our large group. I had white sangria which was a refreshing drink. The cocktails look interesting but they don't seem to have a full liquor license yet so only beer, wine and sake based drinks. I ordered the Kanpachi Sashimi which was a small share plate and I thought it tasted great! A good amount of fish for the price and a really interesting flavor. Miso soup is unique and delicious and the edamame is great! read more

Cherry Fish is a really cool looking spot. The aesthetics and overall vibe are definitely the highlight of the experience. It's modern, stylish, and a great place visually, but unfortunately, that's where it ended for me. We tried this place about a week ago without really looking over the menu beforehand, so we weren't quite sure what to expect. We ordered the edamame, gyoza, wagyu fried rice, and kimchi pizza. Our friends also ordered a few sushi rolls. The edamame, and fried rice were good. The gyoza was ok. The kimchi pizza, was interesting , and not in a good way. I'm not sure if the soggy texture was intentional, but it just didn't work. It wasn't a dish I'd order again. One of the sushi rolls our friends ordered seemed to be a hit, though. My drink was just okay. Overall, the menu felt pretty limited, and while some items were decent, nothing really stood out. The aesthetics were by far the best part of the experience. Unfortunately, I don't think we'll be returning. read more

We were a little disappointed with this place, I will say the highlights were the white sangria, Kyoto drink and edamame. Everything else we tried was not good. I felt like I was being pranked. The wagyu fried rice tasted like bbq sauce, the uni potato bowl was so odd... the miso soup was incredibly salty and the sushi roll with daikon radish and a sliver of tuna was just ok but nothing I'd ever wish to pay for. I hope they can switch up the menu and flavors moving forward! read more

A big group of us went last night and I have nothing but excellent things to say about it. Food, service, ambiance 10/10 The food quality and taste is on par with what you would get at a Michelin star restaurant. Space inside is chic and beautiful, very warm and trendy. Staff was very friendly and attentive Happy to see a place of this caliber open in PB read more

Cherryfish - Outside looking in - Japanese Near Me - San Diego, California

The first thing I want to say about this restaurant is that it's beautifully appointed and pretty inside. Great ambiance. I had to pay $20 to make a reservation in advance, but went ahead with that because it was opening night and we were celebrating my husband's birthday. It said that fee would be applied to the final bill, so I wasn't too worried about it. We arrived for our 6pm reservation, and the restaurant was still pretty empty. When I called they let me know they had happy hour from 5 - 7 pm, but once we arrived was told happy hour was only at the bar. Since we had our teen kids with us, sitting at the bar wasn't an option. I think they sensed our disappointment and they offered to honor the happy pricing for us. Very nice, we were grateful for that. Something to be aware of though, if you are expecting happy hour in the dining area. It took forever for the food to start coming out, not sure why since the place was still pretty empty. But once it did, we quickly realized that the portion sizes were super small and was not going to satisfy a table of 4 people. For how expensive everything was, I was expecting larger shareable portions from the shares menu. I think this place is more for couples/date night and not families. Since they are brand new, we had no reference pictures anywhere to understand how much we would get with each item ordered. We had the edamame (great! But they forgot to put it in and it came out last), butterfly sushi roll, which was underwhelming, lobster rolls which they said would be 4 pieces but came out as 2, shishito peppers (fantastic but watch out for the red ones, super hot) swordfish skewers (good but dry/overcooked), wagyu fried rice (tasty but had negligible wagyu) and the sake grenades flight (favorite was the strawberry one). Also had beer (hubby) and rose wine. They brought us two free desserts to make up for the hiccups, the cheesecake (more like a sponge cake honestly), and a lychee crème brûlée which was delicious and we really enjoyed. However, after reviewing the receipt, it looks like they didn't end up honoring the happy hour pricing, and they didn't apply the $20 reservation fee. It cost $14 for 2 diet cokes, which... really? Walked out of there with a large bill and everyone still super hungry. We would have ordered more food, but did not think the portions were worth it. I'd say this is a cute spot for date night appetizers and cocktails, but not for family dining where you hope to have enough to eat, unless you are used to $350+ night outs for dinner. I really wanted to love this place, but I regret not picking somewhere else for hubby's birthday celebration. Seems you're paying super premium prices for cute decor. read more

The ambience was lovely and our waiter was very attentive and friendly. Well, the food was okay - it didn't wow us and we did not feel it was worth the steep prices for the small portions. The tartare lacked flavor and we could tell wasn't the best quality. The lobster was flavorful, but the sauces that it came with never came out and we had to tell our waiter. The butterfly roll had great flavor as well, but for almost $20 it only had cucumber inside and a thin piece of eel. Overall, Cherryfish was great in terms of ambience and service, but for the price of the food and what we got we wouldn't come back. read more

Overall, Cherryfish offers a well-rounded experience where atmosphere, service, and food come together effortlessly.

Cherry Fish is exactly what PB needed - super creative cocktails, a funky vibe, and insanely good food. The toro and yellowtail roll were my absolute favorites, so fresh and flavorful. The wagyu fried rice blew my mind too, especially with that ramen-style soft-poached egg on top (never seen that before!). Our group also loved the kimchi pizza - the dough is actually made with kimchi, which is such a fun twist. The chef came out to chat with us each time we were there and you can tell he puts so much thought and care into everything. He said brunch is coming soon, and I'm already excited. Finally, a high-quality sushi spot in PB with a legit vibe. read more

Drinks were 5/5! They were unique, fun and yummy! Food was probably a 3.5/5. The edamame was flavorful and spicy and the perfect thing to snack on. The rolls however overwhelmingly tasted like the vegetables instead of the fish in them. For $30 a roll, I want the fish to be the main attraction. Better off trying just nigiri or saving the rolls for happy hour. Cute outdoor patio space! read more

Cherryfish - Akami Roll, Butterfly Roll, Spiny Lobster Roll - Japanese Near Me - San Diego, California

We live in the neighborhood and decided to try this new place. Spent $400 for 2.5 people (2 adults and a kid) for a meal that we didn't enjoy. First off, the service was not great. Had one server for too many tables. Our food came out way before our drinks. Only after I asked a kitchen staff member if we could order more drinks did our server come to ask if we wanted more drinks during our meal. My husband just ordered wine which he enjoyed- especially the Rosé. However, my cocktails were blah. The Passionfruit cocktail tasted like Kool-Aid with cayenne pepper and the Thai Basil cocktail tasted like basil leaves mixed with simple syrup- something I would want as a coffee syrup, not an entire cocktail. We ordered the lobster gyoza, edamame, sunomono, and Kimchi Flatbread as appetizers. The lobster gyoza was so fishy tasting that my husband couldn't stomach it. The Flatbread was okay but was pretty soggy, and the sunomono was too salty. However, their garlic edamame was very good!! For our main course we just ordered nigiri's. The best was the Waguy nigiri!! However, the yellowfin nigiri was too spicy, the o-toro nigiri came seared (which was odd to us) and it didn't taste too fresh. The chu-toro was fairly good though. Our son ordered the beef tenderloin. My husband and I both thought it tasted like straight-up fish. It had a strong fishy taste. My son dipped it in soy sauce and he didn't mind it. I thought the food was overpriced for what it was. Decor and ambiance were very nice, but didn't care for the choice of music. Would I come back here again? No! read more

Really cute vibe , service was fine. - decor of this place is spot on. an empty restaurant on a Thursday night, should have been a sign that the food would be sub par. we ordered a sushi roll and two nigiri rolls. Expensive, and very terrible sushi. Truly barely edible. Had to go get an insomnia cookie after to wash it down. Will not be going back or recommending this place. read more

I had the pleasure of dining at Cherryfish last night, and it exceeded every expectation. The moment you walk in, the design makes a statement: a vibrant blend of pink, green, and black with striking artwork throughout. The attention to detail is evident in every corner. What truly sets this place apart though, is the commitment to both quality and health. This is a Seed Oil Free Kitchen, which is a rare find. Chef Marcus proves that you don't need inflammatory, highly processed oils to create incredible food. Chef Marcus has a higher standard of ingredients and this level of intention deserves recognition. Every dish we ordered was exceptional, both in execution and presentation. It's clear the menu revolves around high quality ingredients, but what elevates it further is the precision and creativity behind each plate. The food speaks for itself! Standout dishes included the kanpachi sashimi, which was paired with a delicate blood orange sauce that added bright, refreshing contrast; the kimchi okonomiyaki, layered with bold, balanced flavor; and the wagyu nigiri and Australian wagyu steak, both perfectly executed and melt in your mouth. The Japanese Caesar offered a unique, twist on a classic, and even the vegetable dishes, like the broccolini and Japanese sweet potatoes, were perfection. We also tried the uni, kanpachi roll, and finished with the matcha affogato, which was the perfect ending: not overly sweet, and nicely balanced. Not a single dish missed the mark! I cannot wait to return and try the rest of the menu. read more

I'm going to chalk it up to the new opening that the service was not great. Immediately upon ordering drinks they informed me that the Shishito would come with no foam due to malfunctions of the foam machine. They were also out of the gyoza. We were constantly missing utensils or napkins and halfway through our meal the lamp on the table ran out of battery. This would be no problem had the restaurant been busy but there really weren't a ton of people there. The food and pricing was also upsetting. We got the Akami roll given how appetizing it seemed from the menu only to find that it is a cucumber roll with a thin slice of tuna on top... for $28... diabolical. The shishito peppers and spicy tuna crispy rice was very good, I would say the wagyu fried rice was decent, but cooking a wagyu takes skill and this was overcooked. I did like the snowcrab handroll... thought it was a refreshing bite. Overall though, our meal + one drink each for 3 ppl felt very overpriced considering that the food is decent, nothing really special, the portions aren't substantial and, again the "pricier" items like meats came in small portions on the dishes. read more

Absolutely fantastic! Food is impeccable, the broccoli romanesco, and kanpachi rolls were to die for. Wagyu fried rice was real good too. Big fan of the cherry blossom and black decor, drink glasses, and the monkey wallpaper in the bathrooms?? Love it! Paige was an excellent server, she knows the menu like the back of her hand and was extremely attentive. We heard her talking with some other guests and when she found out it was their anniversary, she said "oh you should have told me! I'll be right back" and grabbed them something nice. She was great. Nick the manager is fantastic as well, very attentive and appreciate that he was visible and helping check people in. 10/10, a new favorite spot in SD! read more

We checked out this place after hearing about it from neighboring Palmys. The vibe was fun, and our service was great. Loved our waitress! For the price, we expected more from the food. Wagyu was amazing, as well as the cocktails, super yummy! Other than that, I wouldn't write home about this restaurant. read more

We love Cherryfish! The greatest happy hour in town - delicious food, reasonable prices - it's a hidden PB gem for sure.

We went there for my daughter's bday on a Tuesday and it was packed! So glad we made a reservation! It's a new restaurant off Cass St and the ambiance and food were awesome. The kids had a non alcoholic Ube drink that was delicious and the Wagyu fried rice and the lobster gyoza - chef's kiss . Totally recommend! read more

My friend and I went here after seeing it online for good sushi and drinks. We tried to give this place every benefit of the doubt but our experience warranted me giving my first bad yelp review. We sat at the bar and ordered a round of drinks and a kimchi appetizer to start. Drinks came on time, but the appetizer was no where to be found for an hour. We kept seeing the dish be brought around to tables that arrived after us so we asked the bartender if she could cancel the order. Her response was that it was on the line and coming out now, but instead we saw her run to the POS system and put the order in. Fast forward to 30 minutes later (1.5 hours since we ordered), and the food was still not ready, so we asked for the check. At this point we were STARVING and the bartender didn't apologize or offer any type of compensation for the lack of service. This was a crazy experience and feel overall bamboozled by this restaurant. read more

The food was phenomenal. PB really needed something like this. Blown away by the vibes and the decor. The service was phenomenal. From the edamame, the mocktail to the swordfish to the crème brule, I was truly blown away. The fish on the sushi looked extremely fresh, a red tint I hadn't seen in a while. The crème brule was caramelized perfectly. The garlic edamame had a taste to it that I hadn't tried yet with garlic but it was great! The wagyu fried rice was sooo good.

I tend to avoid reviews based on a single restaurant visit, and we've only been there once, but it was great. We are going again tonight. Some friends wanted to check the place out and try some apps. We sat at the bar and the service was great. We enjoyed the happy hour specials, which led to us spending hours there. The wine selection was pretty decent for a Japanese restaurant. If I could offer a suggestion, it would be to add a Pessimist or Daou red to the by-the-glass list. I know, a lot of local places offer that, but it's for good reason. It is consistently decent and people are familiar enough with them that they will likely be consumed within the requisite 24 hours after opening. My two cents worth of advice... read more
