    Came here while on a weekend trip, genuinely the best sushi I've had in my life. I got the Diablo and Sassy Salmon, straight up life changing. Only bad thing about this visit is leaving and acknowledging that it's not in my home town. Also our server Angelo was the GOAT, very nice, funny, best service I've ever had. The vibe was also very nice, felt very romantic making it a great place for a date. 10/10 will definitely be coming back with the lady!

    This is my first time at this place where my wife and I decided just to have relaxing dinner night. The ambience of this place is casual yet can be a fine dining place. Im amazed with our server (Sarah) who happens to be the bartender as well. We watched her do all the orders for cocktails. She is also very welcoming making sure we are ok. The entire time we are here we watched her do all sorts of mixes. We ordered a mixed tempura and specialty roll. It taste good. For this experience I will give them 4.6.

    Yes. One of, of not the best sushi spots in Oceanside. LOVE this place. Amazing selection of sashimi, nigiri, rolls, etc. Whatever you're feeling they got it. It such a good vibe. Lit but not bright and not crazy loud or anything either. Our server, Madison, was awesome. Greeted us with a bright smile and was perfectly attentive the whole time. Helpful with recs and slight changes to a couple rolls as well. Definitely look forward to next time

    Definitely a fun restaurant with options outside of just sushi! Their sushi options are very fusion, with a lot of creme cheese, but overall most are really great. I love to make reservations ahead of time as they can get quite busy suddenly, but if you go early enough you can almost always just be seated. While I love their drinks at their speakeasy, The Lounge, they have their own wonderful drinks in-house too. I loved the lychee gimlet! I would go here for that cocktail alone. So refreshing and lightly tart but not overly sweet either. I do suggest going during happy hour as their happy hour drink and food list is great. Great way to try a lot of different appetizers. We loved the spicy tuna crispy rice. Just a lot of flavor packed into the tuna and the perfect crisp to the rice was just the best combo. We enjoyed the salmon skin hand roll too, but the spicy tuna crispy rice is a must! We did split 3 different rolls, and my husband had one extra. We started out with the pirate roll, the culichi-wa, and lightning. My absolute favorites were the pirate roll and lightning roll. Both just had so much flavor packed into each bite, along with delicious faux-Nagi sauce. I enjoyed the culichi-wa roll too, but not as much as the other two. The mango salsa on the culichi-wa roll was perfect though. My husband had the James bomb roll too. Fried rolls are not for me, but he liked it! He liked our other rolls more, but this one was still good. I thought the mayo made it feel like there was even more cream cheese, but for those that love cream cheese in rolls, this is perfect! Ended the night with some green tea mochi. Didn't realize it would be mochi ice cream, but it was still good. The whip cream with mochi threw us for a loop but then once we realized it was mochi ice cream, it all made sense. Great for one or to split!

    What a fun pace for dinner! We arrived around 8pm and we were seated right away. The vibe was very fun and there was even a DJ playing great music! We were served quickly and the food was delicious! Make sure to try the monkey brains. They are stuffed with so much crab!

    Orange Crush Roll - normally awesome, not today

    Made reso for V-day at 8:45p. Used to live here and always try to hit this place up when i visit. Last night was a miss. Rice was off, shrimp tempura was cold and soggy, and rolls didnt even look nor taste like normal. Not sure if place is slipping or it was a just a bad night and everyone was getting lazy towards end of a busy night. Service was also not great, deliver food with no wasabi or ginger, wait like 10 min + before anyone is even in the room to ask for it, eventually just asked someone else's server. I dunno, maybe give it one more shot and see if this is a glitch, but if not def will not be back.

    Amazing sushi. Rolls Royce nigiri was amazing. So was the Chuck Norris roll. Great service and breeze with all the doors open!

    Had a great dinner at Harney O-Side the evening of Memorial Day. Our daughter got bused to the train station from Irvine and we were looking for some good food. Harney's wasn't too busy so we dived in. We were seated fairly quickly, but then we sat and sat with no water, no server, for maybe 15 minutes. After 15 minutes twiddling our thumbs, I told my wife and daughter that if no one showed up within 5 minutes, we were outta there. A minute or two later, water arrived, and a couple minutes after that, our server. As it turned out, our server Natalie was great -- I guess Harney's was understaffed because of the holiday. We ordered lots of food and drinks right away in case the kitchen was slow, but our food and drinks started coming out pretty quick. Sake, beer, spicy garlic edamame, hamachi kama, crispy orange tofu, sushi rolls, and nigiri. The food was excellent, and my wife appreciated that LARGE vegan menu. Throughout, Natalie checked in with us and made sure we were happy. Overall, a great experience once we got past that first 15 minutes of nothing. Docked 1 point for that.

    Spicy Tuna Crispy Rice
    Kris G.

    This is a great local downtown Oceanside spot for sushi. They have more traditional offering, but also very creative ones as well. I'm a big fan of their Ana roll. It has the tempura shrimp and the soy paper. I also love the nigiri and we always get the spicy garlic edamame and the spicy tuna crispy rice. They are so flavorful and the spicy tuna crispy rice has a good mix of crunch and spice. Other solid choices are the Culichi Wa Roll and the Diablo roll. We have also tried the salmon filet made with capers, lemon and a garlic butter sauce served with mashed potatoes, and asparagus. Pretty good as well.

    I live in downtown Oceanside, where many restaurants exist. In the eight years that I've lived here…read more, I've eaten at many of them at least once. I always wondered about Rosewood, but haven't tried it because it is Japanese which I know nothing about. Yesterday I had to try it. Maren, my server, reviewed the menu and suggested Shio Tonkotsu, a popular Ramen dish. I chose chicken over pork and was overjoyed by my choice. The chicken was so delicious as was the Ramen and the broth. Rosewood is a new adventure for me and I have to try their other dishes. I'll let you know what I think because Rosewood is going to get another visit. I forgot to mention their outside patio is a fun place to enjoy a meal.

We settled on Oceanside in hopes of finding good food, as our weekend (end of Feb) had been full of a poor results. This place came up as very well rated on Yelp, as my friend and I searched for places to eat. It was a Saturday night with great weather. The red flag I should have read into was that the lone guy working that night was a one man show. He was doing it all in the front of the house. I tried to get us a table to sit outdoors but he just couldn't get to the table to clean it. After about 20 minutes he finally came and just moved all the bowls to the empty table next to it and wiped it down. When my friends finally arrived we all sat down to sticky menus that had NO descriptions. What you see on the website is exactly what they have on the menu. We had to wait to ask the server/host what each menu item meant. It took a while to get our food from when we ordered. Thank goodness for good company, I didn't clock it. The food options were limited and keep in mind for those who have children, most of the options come with a spicy kick, you'll have to explicitly tell them "no spicy"! There was a party who had been sitting for a while before we got there and a kiddo took a bite of pizza and was crying, screaming from it being so spicy. With my ramen the portions are tiny for what you pay, with 1 piece of meat, not enough noodles. Flavor wise it was spicy and bland. We ordered a couple appetizers which were not very good. The edamame was overly salty and soaked in soy sauce and the karaage was probably the only good thing and that was a little overfried. No one in our party finished our food or took any of the leftovers home. Save yourself the trip, not worth trying the "unique foods".

My son heard us mention sushi and perked right up, but we told him not likely around here. Just for fun, we Googled it and then read the reviews and were taken aback at the fantastic reviews. Son plays an amazing game, they win! Grammie wants to take us to lunch so we give her the address. She gets there before us and we all sort of look at one another and say let's give it a try.

I always enjoy dining there with my family because they have good food that we can all enjoy together. Every year for my birthday I go to Gonzo! I simply love eating at Gonzo. First of all, I can't get over how scrumptious their food is, it is so tasty and packed with flavor. If you stand in line to order, as soon as you sit down you will have already been served. I don't know how Gonzo prepares their meals so fast, yet so delicious. Also the fact that they cook their food fresh daily is crazy to me. I've been to many ramen restaurants and no one compares to Gonzo's. My go to on the menu is the tonkotsu ramen with gyoza and chicken karaage. Gonzo also offers a very unique atmosphere that makes you feel like you're in Japan. They have waving cats, a big banana neon light, posters and a floating ball on top of the water station. The ball is so cool but I am still puzzled on how it works. Their decor can not be matched. They also have a TV that is always playing Anime. You can also sit inside or outside so if you feel like sitting inside, sit inside but if you want to sit outside, sit outside. Gonzo also does not offer reservations so there is always a place to sit. If there is nowhere to sit just get It to go, truly there is no other ramen stop better than Gonzo. Lastly, the people there are super nice, and always check up on you, they are very polite, and they always say your welcome. While you wait, you can enjoy your appetizers until your main meal arrives. Also if you ask them for a free ticket to their store, they will give you one, each member of the family gets one. You can go next door and trade them in for tokens, these tokens can be used to play claw machines so you can win stuff. But what tops that off is that all of the employees are welcoming and happy. Gonzo Ramen is the best restaurant in the world. They offer good food, an amazing atmosphere and the people there are super nice not to mention the location is very conveniently located near my house. I seriously think about Gonzo all the time. Gonzo is that go to place for me and my family.

Another plus! The place was busy busy and sooo noisy. We were fine with the wait to take our order (about 15 minutes), which gave us enough time to peruse the menu. We ordered the Omasake box with side of sushi rice, Salmon Teriyaki entree with xtra veggies and no rice, a side of Kale salad, and Passion Fruit Cheesecake for dessert. No menu drinks; just water, which came aplenty, as our glasses were never empty while we continually guzzled down our h20 (this summer has been such an excruciatingly hot one) - another plus for this continued h20 service! Now for our order: The Box came immediately, and without hesitation my companion dove in with chopsticks already waiting in hand. I picked on his meal, while waiting for mine. The Salmon entree came about ten minutes later, while I salivatingly and happily endulged myself with its delicious flavor. The Kale salad came quite late (almost like an after thought) as we were almost done with our main orders. The salad had an odor that wasn't quite pleasant - as probably most extremely green veggies do smell when grilled. I liked the taste; my companion did not, as he stated it tasted too bitter. I requested a side of ponzu sauce to tame down the bitterness, and I also ended up tossing some shredded white garnished radish noodles (left over from my companion's box meal) to mix in with the kale salad...hmmm, tasted better, but we eventually requested to have our salad to go. My companion was still hungry after his boxed meal; I was not, but we both agreed not to order anything more, a we awaited the dessert. The cheesecake dessert was the best part of our meal here, as the taste really pleased our still hungry palette. And yet another plus! All in all, the meal was pleasant. A little pricey (over $100) - thank goodness we skipped the drinks, less regular h20. Would we return? Sure. Service was great, and food was pretty good. Just a bit pricey... but then again, most sushi and seafood eateries are. There is plenty of parking and a plethora of other eateries nearby. If ones palette begs to differ from sushi or seafood.

    We came in for a late dinner while in the area. I've had it bookmarked for a while so it was…read moreserendipitous that we happened to be in Vista for a birthday party just around the corner. The restaurant is small, cozy, welcoming and aesthetically pleasing. It isn't well suited for larger parties as most tables are tables for 2 unless tables are pushed together. They do have patio seating and heaters outside, but it didn't appeal to me being so close to the street/loud traffic. Gabriel checked us in, seated us, took our order, served our food and waited on us for majority of our visit, I would give him 10 stars just on his impeccable service. The food though? The food was AMAZING!! Everything we ordered was the best we have ever had anywhere. The buns were very kawaii (and we ordered ever single one to try). The fillings were savory, but we also loved their seasonal panda bun with ube filling while the kids preferred the nutella bunny. Best chicken karaage we've had by far, the coating almost tasted like it was rolled in kinako powder. The ramen broth was "chef's kiss" with so much flavors, the crab rangoon were jumbo and the filling was delicious, but the chicken katsu was also the best we have had anywhere (including Hawaii). The breading was just top tier crunchy while the chicken was thick and juicy. There isn't one bad thing I could say about this place, from the service to the food, I would make the drive out here again. Super duper, highly recommend, don't sleep on this little place, you'll regret it!

    Okay, I found out Harumama Ramen + Sushi was in my neighborhood so I had to check it out. I wanted…read moreto see if it's the same as another one I've been to about 20 minutes away. Since I'm a lover of information, I looked up "Harumama". It's a combination of two words: the Korean word haru, which means "day," and "mama". Together, it translates to "mom's daily food". The name reflects the restaurant's mission to serve dishes prepared with the same love, care, and attention that a mother gives to her family's everyday meals. How lovely is that?! Anyhow, I was able to find street parking and walked into a clean dining space with a nice atmosphere. It wasn't too busy. Again, the staff was very attentive and provided stellar service. My food came out pretty fast. I loooved how my Drunken Noodles had the right amount of chicken and peanuts. Overall, another fun flavorful time. I'm still a Harumama fan. I can't wait to try more dishes. I highly recommend this location to the Yelp Community!!
