    My first time experience to dining here. Very pleased with the freshness of my sake bowl. It was beautifully presented to my table. I just did not want to start eating but rather admire its presentation . Once inside , I was transported into another part of the world. I loved the authenticity of this sushi bar/restaurant, adding to having an itamae calling from behind the bar when the orders are ready . Very good service . I will be back!

    Came here for the first time during happy hour, where many menu items are 50% off, making it a great opportunity to try a variety of dishes. We ordered the baked salmon roll, baked lobster roll, beef bulgogi entrée, and spicy chicken teriyaki entrée. The baked rolls were the highlight of the meal--both were incredibly flavorful, fresh, and absolutely delicious. The beef bulgogi was also very good, and I especially appreciated that it came with a generous amount of vegetables. The only disappointment was the spicy chicken teriyaki. It had very little teriyaki sauce, was overloaded with onions, and the chicken itself was quite dry. Overall, it was a great first visit, and the happy hour specials offered excellent value. I'll definitely be back to try more items from the menu.

    MIZUKIYAMA SUSHI @ DEL MAR This place is located in the Del Mar Highlands plaza, which is honestly a really nice area to walk around. There's a good amount of shops and restaurants nearby, and parking was easy since the garages are free, which is always a plus in this area. My friend and I came here for dinner because we were craving sushi, and overall I'd say the experience was just okay. The restaurant itself was clean and had a nice atmosphere, and the lady helping us was friendly throughout the meal, so the service wasn't bad at all. For food, I ordered a tuna roll, my friend got the nigiri platter, and we also shared the calamari. Everything came out pretty quickly, and presentation-wise it looked decent, but the sushi itself honestly wasn't my favorite. The fish didn't taste as fresh as I was hoping, and some of it had a slightly fishy taste that threw me off a bit. The calamari was probably the best part of the meal since it came out crispy and flavorful. Overall, I wouldn't say the food was terrible, but it definitely didn't stand out compared to other sushi spots in San Diego. It was decent for what it was, but probably not somewhere I'd personally go out of my way to come back to.

    Good deal and nice food !

    Good value , really worth to try . And they have happy hour 3:30-5:30pm 7 days a week

    All set to try their lunch special of 2 rolls!  Salad and miso soup were great...

    OMG! The best baked scallops roll ever. If you like creamy, spicy and on the sweeter side, this is outstanding. Very generous amount, lots of crab too. Spicy tuna was so flavorful not needing at should. Great service. Kind, smiles, and patient. Food paced just right. Enjoyed that the sushi chef said hello. Quiet, comfortable, clean. Looking forward to coming back for dinner! Omakase for $100. Salmon and Camacho kama!

    Crispy Rice
    Mojdeh A.

    I have noticed this place has mixed reviews but surprisingly it is awesome the food is fresh. The spicy tuna was great and very spicy. The waiters are kind and the food comes fast. The crispy rice is something you need to try. The ambiance is cozy and looks like it has been here for a while. The food is fresh and sooo good. If you're hungry check this place out now. -Arsam

    Great sushi & service & happy hour! I get the House Special Roll, Yellowtail Nigiri, and miso soup. All delish!! All items with sticker aren't on happy hour.

    Garden salad
    Christina H.

    Love the sushi here. And the service is excellent. We had the garden salad and the seaweed salad. Loved both. Especially the ginger dressing on the garden salad Then we had the mango roll and the fantasy roll. Loved both of them and would order again. My husband had the Korean bulgogi which didn't have enough flavor/sauce but the portion size was good. Sat at the sushi bar which was a lot of fun! Nice air conditioning for the summer.

    Very disappointed with our recent experience at Gami Sushi. The quality of the sushi was extremely…read morepoor compared to what we expected. The fish did not taste fresh, and several items seemed like they had been sitting out for far too long. Unfortunately, the situation became much worse after our meal. Multiple people in our group became sick afterward with symptoms consistent with food poisoning. While it's impossible to know with absolute certainty, this was the only meal we shared, and the timing strongly suggests it was the source. We've eaten here in the past and had much better experiences, which makes this visit even more disappointing. Based on the poor quality of the food and the illness that followed, we will not be returning.

Miso soup was flavorful yet not overly salty. What really stood out was the homemade salad dressing. You can taste the freshness, which was so much better than any of the store bought stuff. They used fresh ingredients to make their own dressing and it was absolutely delicious! They really won me over with the salad dressing! In fact, loved it so much that I had to request the restaurant to sell me a small container. I normally don't like much dressing in my salad, but this was an exception. The food presentation was a bit on the sloppy side, the rolls weren't well made but the taste was there. For large parties, they have the large sushi boats that looked pretty! We ordered a pot of roasted rice tea to share. I liked the teapot. It was such a clever idea! When you place the pot over your cup, the pressure automatically dispenses the tea. When you lift it, it stops. I might have to buy one of these! Service was excellent! The server and restaurant owner were very friendly. I'll have to come back here with friends and family!

The crispy tuna was ridiculously gold! The rice is crispy, the tuna and avocado is so delicious. Has the perfect rice and tuna ratio. This is a must get. All the sushi here is buttery and just melts in your mouth. I loved the salmon belly, toro, and tuna cheek. You can taste the quality and freshness of the fish. The A5 wagyu is insanely good! It's smokey, buttery soft, and rich. This was our favorite dish of the night. The bring the tuna cheek in this cool smokey container. I used my chopsticks to split it in half and it's so soft it just cuts through so easily. For rolls, I really liked the workplace roll. It had a little hint of coconut, crispy, and creamy texture. The ice cream was interesting! I'm not an uni person, but the uni ice cream was creamy and really good! The black truffle is pieces of black truffle with vanilla ice cream. It has a strong truffle flavor, but somehow works lol The matcha creme brûlée has a strong matcha flavor. I thought it could've had a more balanced, creamy flavor.

I consider myself a sushi lover and find myself eating it on a semi-regular basis. After a while, you begin to tire of the go-to spots and that's what happened to my husband and I. So, I took to Yelp to help us find a new place to enjoy and that's when Ken Sushi Workshop popped up! The first time we came, we had our two kids with us (10 and 5 years old) and were seated right away in one of their igloo style dining tables outside. We ordered a variety of nigiri and I have to say how wonderful everything was. The fish is fresh and the presentation of it all was delightful (my husband loves their eye droppers for soy sauce!). We returned again, this time just the two of us, and once again we really enjoyed our experience. Service was welcoming and attentive and we couldn't have asked for a better time. Definitely going to keep returning and appreciate all that Ken does!

There has been a lot of new housing development and the neighborhood is now very crowded. The food has declined in quality, but that is not the primary problem. The main issue is that they are absolutely understaffed. I am currently sitting at this restaurant and have been at the sushi bar for one hour and have yet to receive a single piece of sushi, despite having ordered the moment that I walked in. Additionally, they used to have a special where you would buy two beers and receive a free small socket. The prices have increased and they have an eliminated all of the specials (i.e. no free sake). I can't comment on the food as nothing has come out yet. There are only three sushi chefs. It's not that the restaurant is even so crowded. It's that they are filling a majority of online food delivery orders. Sad
