Pretty surprised. We hit Himitsu, Banbu Sushi, very decent spots. My family was starving. We walked in and weren't too impressed. Tight seating, not too many folks. Service is pretty slow. The sushi here really hit the spot though. The otoro nigiri was legit. Fatty, nice slightly thicker slice. My wife ordered salmon sashimi for my daughter and my son. Daughter didn't want any, son killed it. Wife loves crispy rice which was pretty good. Thank goodness she likes nigiri too . All of it was very good, moderately priced. We don't hit Solana Beach often but glad we came here vs Pizza Port. read more

Went here last Friday. Was a little unclear when we were getting seated but we sat down pretty quickly. The guy behind the counter ended up taking our order and our server came to us only after about 15-20 minutes. We got 2 California rolls and they were delicious and not very expensive. Our servers were very nice and helpful, but had issues with organization. It's a great ambiance in the restaurant and a fun time. read more

Station Sushi - California Roll - Sushi Bars Near Me - Solana Beach, California

Gave this place a try on the recommendation of several girls from my hair salon who absolutely raved about it! They were not wrong! Location: It's a quaint place that was a little difficult to find. If you're trying to find it from Acacia Ave, it's behind the parking lot that's designated for Station Sushi and the Med Spa. From the lot, all you'll see is the back of the restaurant building. There's no signage that indicates that it's a restaurant, as far as I could see. But have faith and walk up to the front! Service: I walked in on a fairly busy Thursday evening and was still seated right away. My food (two house rolls) came out within 15 mins. Staff were attentive and friendly. No complaints here! They also have a drive thru window which I thought was super convenient and unique for a sushi place. Food: Delish! I got the Manhattan Roll and the Sashimi Roll. Both were yummy, though I preferred the sashimi roll since it's not always easy to find riceless rolls. Fish was fresh and the ponzu sauce for the sashimi roll was a great pairing. Wish I lived closer cuz if I did, I'd easily become a regular! read more

Not bad of a spot! Made a last minute decision to eat out after watching a show and this place was open. There was a line, so I thought it must be good and gave it a try. Food - Pretty good! Their options are pretty basic and they have the standards. It's like going to almost any other good Western-sushi spot (with all the toppings and whatnot). Their rolls are huge too! Just 1 or 2 hit the spot and got me really full. Service - Very nice and attentive. The guy was willing to help with any questions and helped seat us at the patio. No complaints! Ambiance - quaint spot with outdoor seating, which was helpful. Pretty sure they're dog-friendly because they just have a covered patio. They seemed pretty busy for late Friday night, which was a good sign. And they're right next to Pizza Port. Crowd was good, a lot of couples on dates, but very chill ambiance. Would go again if I was craving sushi and happened to be in the area again. I know there's a lot of sushi options so it doesn't stand out TOO much. read more

Location- it's a cute tucked spot with parish right in front in a nice shopping area. Food- the food was flavored and I love how the menu had pictures to it lol I have always loved a menu with pictures. The rolls I ordered were so big. I ordered 4 but with just one was enough. Now I can take it to go Service- the waitress was very kind and sweet with helping us find items on the menu. Support small businesses!! I will definitely come back here when I'm back in town. Seems like the locals love the people here. Overall this was a nice experience and I definitely will come back to this cute location. read more

They leave your uber orders out and let drivers say the names on the orders so people just grab them. If you call them, they say they didn't do anything wrong and refuse to redo the order. read more

I'm giving it 2 stars because my wife loved her vegi roll. I on the other hand had the spicy tuna roll and shortly after leaving that night I started feeling stomach problems (nausea, cramps etc). I spent the whole next day with terrible diarrhea and on the verge of throwing up constantly. It was the only thing I ate that evening before I got sick and I was a mess for the next 24 hours. I will definitely not be going back. read more

Really bad service. The waitress forgot my sushi roll order. I waited an hour before getting it. We had to ask to take our order several times, we had to ask several times about my sushi order & had to ask several times for the check. No surprise, they didn't take my sushi roll off the bill so I asked & they said no. Food & ambience wasn't good either. read more

I see long-long lines at the restaurant but regrettably I was not impressed. We ordered three different sets of sushi to share and they all tasted bland and almost identical. Lack of flavor was apparent. Perhaps we came in on day with not the best kitchen crew but I do not think I will be back any time soon read more

Station Sushi in Solana Beach is a great place for casual sushi. They have a wide assortment of sushi, rolls, entrees, bowls and noodle soups. On this visit we ordered the following selections: Crispy Rice Spicy Tuna - 4 pieces. Great portion. At least 3-4 bites to finish one. Generous amount of spicy tuna piled on a rectangle bed of crispy rice. Very good and I would order this again. Yellowtail Jalapeno Roll - Spicy tuna, cucumber, avocado outer with Yellowtail, jalapeno, soy mustard. So good with the Jalapeno on top for a bit spice. Yellowtail was fresh and so flavorful. Rainbow Roll - California roll inside with outer tuna, salmon and avocado. Such a delightful and tasty roll. Sashimi - 3 pcs each of tuna, salmon and yellowtail. All three sashimi were fresh and delicious. Very satisfied with all the selections on this visit and would order everything again. Service was great from being seated promptly to getting our food. Parking is available either street or their lot in the back. I would definitely come back for casual sushi as their quality and prices are great. read more

Station Sushi - Rainbow, Jalapeno, Crispy Rice Spicy Tuna - Sushi Bars Near Me - Solana Beach, California

Big Portions. Fast Service. Friendly Staff. Clean Environment. I really can't complain. My food was terrific. My husband didn't complain about his food either. The sushi chef was super friggin' nice and accommodating. My only "complaint" is that the salmon skin was so minced up... And I'm the type to like it in strips. But every sushi restaurant is different so I can't REALLY fault them for that. I'd totally eat here again. read more

My friend and I stopped by here after wine at Carruth. We we're creating some sushi and run luck to find the spot! There's plenty of seating in the service was superintendent. We ordered a few rules to share and garlic edamame?. My favorite role is definitely Ford Roll, which our service also recommended. They do have seating at their sushi bar but plenty of seating on there heated covered patio. If you're looking for some casual Sushi this is a great place to stop by. read more

Went for happy hour so rated for happy hour prices, really average sushi overall. The tuna nachos, salmon nigiri, and fantasy roll were the favorites! Garlic edamame also very good! They did forget to bring our nigiri so had to remind them. read more

The food that I had at Station Sushi was amazing I had the salmon Sashimi and it tasted fresh and it didn't have the fishy flavor that some restaurants have I had a great time will go back read more

Haven't been in 5+ years but still awesome fish. Instead of yellowfin ahi they used bluefin. Love that.

Station Sushi 4.3 We had a large group of 9 for lunch. We arrived a bit early to secure a large table. We were quickly seated at two tables next to each other. Being first in the restaurant has the benefit of very fast service. Our drinks were served and we placed our lunch order. We ordered 3 Bento Boxes, two Tiger Rolls, a Ford Roll, a Slippery When Wet Roll, and Tuna Rolls. All of the sushi rolls were given high marks. The bento boxes were nicely prepared. Overall, an excellent lunch with friendly service. read more

very good rolls, fresh fish, nice use of imitation crab. Good outdoor seating,got the rainbow roll with yellow tail and real fried crab inside. Yummy and large enough for 2 for a light lunch and chat. Green tea was refreshing. Will return for more ! Perfect spot across from train station and before or after going to either the Fair or Del Mar Races! Service was ok cause it was almost empty- we got there very early. Ambiance is typical outdoor tables, but plenty of them. read more

It's a Solana Beach staple, worth trying if you're in the neighborhood. Located on Highway 101, Station Sushi serves a range of traditional Japanese entrees, nigiri, sashimi and house speciality sushi rolls. While there's plenty of good sushi in the area, this has always been my go-to when I'm visiting. It can get a bit crowded during peak dine times, but I've never minded. It adds to the smaller, local vibe. Just go with the expectation that there may be a bit of a wait. One of my favorite menu item's is the Sushi Burrito, which includes an assortment of sashimi, lettuce and veggies, wrapped in soy paper. It's about the size of a standard sushi roll, so my wife and I usually split one while we're looking over the menu. PRO TIP: It's a good choice if you're looking to have a drink with your meal or hangout for a post-beach Happy Hour. Beyond beer, wine and sake, they also have a limited cocktail menu. read more

Always a great meal, excellent appetizers: spicy garlic edamame, shishito peppers and crispy rice. Awesome rolls:Protein roll, extasy, baked lobster roll! Yum! read more

The service over the past year has become slower and slower. No idea what needs to be fixed, but over the past several visits dinner can take almost 2 hours (not including waiting for a table). Gave it another chance tonight and left after hearing the table next to us talking about not seeing a waitress for 25 mins trying to get another beer. Another table sent their daughters to find the waitress to ask for water. There were 4 other tables sat before us still waiting to order. Ended up leaving to go to our new sushi spot in Encinitas with much better service. read more

Food is delicious! Love the nacho app and the matrix roll!! Fresh sushi and fun vibes. Our server was Hannah and she made my friend's birthday celebration 10/10!!! Honestly, we would be back for any celebration because of Hannah! Station sushi has been our go-to for sushi for years. Just had an especially great time due to Hannah's attention to detail for our friend's bday!! Thanks Hannah and thanks station sushi! read more

Did a quick stop before a meeting for a roll. The sushi bar is inside and most of the table seating is outside. Lots of variety of house sushi rolls. A lot to choose from. Have to come back to try more. They accommodated our time constraint and made a delicious salmon roll . Fresh and delicious. Staff friendly and service good. They have happy hour 3-530pm. read more

First and foremost I need to thank and compliment our waitress, Presley. She was so patient with my MANY questions and truly wanted us all to be happy. The food was good and we enjoy the patio. Thanks again to Presley ‼ read more

Sushi was really good -- it was actually my first time having sushi. I officially consider myself a sushi guy now, so thanks. I had a firecracker roll. Also had a deep fried gyoza, which was new to me. They're usually pan fried, which is an option here too. Deep fried is the way to go! It was actually amazing. Great happy hour prices from 3-530pm Sunday thru Thursday. However, the owner was pretty strict about it. My res was at 5pm; did not get seated until 515. Didn't get to place our food order until 528pm and staff refused to honor the HH prices...only reason for the 3 star. read more

Station Sushi is one of the best in the area! The fish is always super fresh and the rolls are so worth the money. You can tell they put a lot of time into their food & service! If you're looking for a cute place for a date, to hang with friends or meet with a client this place is great! read more

I ordered the Tonkatsu ramen and it was the worse restaurant food I've ever eaten and I'm from Bakersfield, the broth was full of cooked carrot, broccoli and what seemed like a whole onion it tased like nothing but water and salt and the noodles were like eating overcooked top ramen which might actually be what they were I would have gotten a better meal, which is to say one I could actually eat, from a cup of noodles read more

Horrible. Fish wasn't fresh. Literally no shrimp in shrimp tempora roll. Rude staff. Stay clear

Our favorite suishi place in Solana Beach. We visit SB 2x a year and make sure we go to Station Suishi EVERY Time. The selection is incredible and so fresh. This last time Sarah was our waitress and was great !!! read more

We walked by Station Sushi earlier in the day and sushi sounded good so returned for dinner on Thursday night. We sat outside on a very nice night and service was quick and welcoming. The sushi was really good and we enjoyed all three rolls we ordered. We also had a large hot sake and beer. It was a nice casual vibe outside with some Thursday Night Football on. I'd recommend it for a nice casual night out in Encinitas. read more

I come to Solana beach twice a year and station sushi is always on my list of places to eat! I only get takeout so I'm not sure how the service or ambiance are but the food is TOP TIER! My brother ordered the chicken fried rice which was huge and so yummy! Rice was cooked nicely with lots of flavor. We had several rolls, the spicy tuna and California were amongst them, both large sizes. We also got the Ford roll which I couldn't stop eating. I would definitely recommend a visit here if you like sushi! read more

Honestly a little disappointed. Service was ok, but I wasn't a huge fan of the food itself. Just didn't really taste that good to be honest. Portion was big, but I'd rather spend more money at a place like Shimbashi for better sushi. read more

Good food and relatively close to the Cedros District, the Belly Up, across from the train station and one block away from Fletcher Cove in Solana Beach. The tempura was delicious and cooked well.

Walked in last Sunday, the patio was disgusting; dirty tables everywhere. Went inside, the place is awful, looks like an ugly storage area with a sushi bar. CLEAN UP YOUR ACT PEOPLE!... What an offensive and shameful eatery... Hideous beyond words!... read more

Newly revived and definitely worth a revisit in good 'ol Solana Beach. Haven't been at Station Sushi in quite some time and I can definitely attest that is is worth considering. Food and options are refreshed with enthusiastic hostesses and eagerness to please. My wife and I have been visiting Station Sushi every couple of weeks and appreciate the customer friendly and laidback experience. Good sushi and roll options. Definitely check out the toro chef's special for lunch and dinner. Will not disappoint! read more

We were able to be seated right away on a Monday night, but our food took a bit longer than we expected. We also had to verbally flag down a waiter in order to get our check after we were done eating, even though our plates were stacked at the edge of the table and we were trying to make eye contact with multiple servers. I know we were in Solana Beach, but I would not classify this as a two dollar sign restaurant. The sushi was good. Nothing special for the elevated price, although some of the rolls were fairly unique they did not sound appealing. Unfortunately we were there on a hot summer night and despite being a shaded patio with fans it was uncomfortably hot. The inside was worse. read more

All aboard the sushi train, because Station Sushi was on a roll! We ordered two rolls and were blown away by how much food we got--it was definitely rice on track for a perfect meal. The service was fast, super friendly, and made the experience even better. Honestly, we were soy surprised to see so many bad reviews on Yelp. Maybe those people were just having an off night, but our visit was fin-tastic. Everything hit the spot, and we'll definitely be back for more. This place gets a thumbs-up from us--it's a raw-some stop for sushi lovers! read more

Excellent portions and taste. Great menu for classic Japanese cuisine with added ability to find vegan choices as well.
