Fair. Really meh. I love sushi - but good sushi. If I wanted grocery store sushi, I'd drive to the local chain food market and pick some up. It seems obvious that most of Su Su Sushi's business is take out. Pre-packaged stuff as soon as you walk in. Draft beer is on the menu (hoping for a good rice lager), but all of their beers, sadly, are bottled only (you have to grab one out of the cooler case by the door). I opted to eat there, since I was ordering soup and didn't want to lug that back to where I was staying. Ordered a California Roll, Miso Soup and a cold Jasmine tea. First out, and it was pretty quick, was the California Roll. Waited for the rest of my order, because I was thirsty and didn't want to start eating until I got something to drink. Waited for my soup and Jasmine tea. Waited. Ten minutes later, out came my soup. Yes, it was hot. But I waited for my Jasmine tea now. Another ten minutes and out that came, with a shrink-wrapped top on it and a boba straw? Very perplexing. Sushi tasted like it had been made way earlier in the day. Rice around the roll was VERY pasty. Not a whole lot of flavor. Wasabi was enough to add a kick, but a small squirt of wasabi was all that was given. Miso soup was not bad. Broth was interesting; not the worst I've had, but certainly not the best. Jasmine tea was refreshing, but I wish it had come out with the rest of my food. Decor is nothing to marvel at. Basic tables like you would find at any primarily take-out restaurant. But it was hot in there. Door is open with a ventilation pipe of some sort pointing outward, but that didn't help the feeling of slowly melting in your chair, without anything to cool you down (my tea), and then eating pasty-rice encrusted sushi. I've walked by here so many times I can't even count. Next time, I'll keep walking. There are other sushi restaurants in the area, albeit they are much pricier. When it comes to sushi, you really do get what you pay for. read more

This family-run business was welcoming and full of fresh options. We enjoyed both traditional sushi rolls with rice as well as healthier rolls made with rice paper. Eat here for high quality at a great price! read more

This sushi place deserves a 5- star rating for the following reasons: first, the sushi were made fresh and delicious; secondly, the service was great- there's only 2 of them in the restaurant and yet they delivered the food quickly. I also loved the friendly service; and lastly , the price was very reasonable and affordable. read more

Su Su Sushi - $15 with tax - Sushi Bars Near Me - San Diego, California

Sushi was excellent. We went for an early lunch and were the only ones in the restaurant. Ordered two salmon nigiri and our server didn't indicate that there are six pieces per order - it wasn't stated on the menu and I assumed two. Is too much nigiri a bad thing?? Small restaurant, with a decent amount of seating. Appeared very clean and organized. Would definitely go back!! read more

Fresh, fast, and no frills neighborhood sushi restaurant. Great happy hour and amazing variety. I think there's two people working, one making sushi and the other taking orders. Just a nice family restaurant getting through life one sushi role at a time. read more

Service is the only reason they got a 3. I would have given them something lower, but the guy was nice enough that I feel bad to give anything less than a 3 The food was disappointing. I got two rolls, with one that was supposed to be deep fried. Extremely disappointing to see it come out. Ambience was average. read more

Service was non existing. Was here at noon and the dot not have the ability to take cash, also Thrusday are apparently not 20% off even though the sign at the door says it is. They told us it's not at lunch tome read more

Su Su Sushi - Not 20% off ???? - Sushi Bars Near Me - San Diego, California

My favorite spot to get a quick lunch! I work in the area and like to walk to Su Su Sushi to pick up some rolls. You can either get pre-made rolls from the refrigirated area or you can order rolls at the counter. Staff is very friendly and food always comes out quick. read more

The service was okay, a little unorganized but we got our food pretty fast. the vibe of the place is very casual. The food on the other hand though was not good. The price for rolls and quality was not good, rice was overcooked and mushy, i had ordered a roll with a addon and was okay with the additional fee, but they had taken out an ingredient that was a crucial part of the roll? I don't think if was fair game for my buck. Nasty . read more

A cheaper option for sushi in the area and convenient if you're looking for grab and go sushi. On the fridge counter they were offering Pork Buns, a few basic rolls, and appetizers like gyoza and krab salad. You will need a few minutes to read the menu as the font is small but they have many options. We noticed they use a machine to roll the sushi, so definitely not the authentic roll you are looking for, however, pieces come out neat, the sushi rice is good, and the nigiris are big for its size but a decent cut of fish. We ordered the Salmon Combo and Hot Crunchy Roll. Salmon Combo (4/5): Six pcs of salmon and tuna sushi, two tuna nigiri, and two salmon nigiri and drizzled spicy Mayo and eel sauce. All of it was pretty balanced and tasty. Hot Crunchy Roll (4/5): Imitation Krab with sriracha and spicy Mayo. Topped with delicious fried onions. For a deli type of establishment, it's not bad, however, it's not as cheap as I originally thought it was. For what it is, I give it a 3.5. Another downside is they charge extra for things like spicy mayo. read more

Imma a 2x's a month Sushi eater. My friend gifted me new chopsticks straight outta Japan so they needed to be broken in. I had the California crunch roll and Salmon avocado roll. Oh yeah, and my guest had a mango/strawberry Boba. Me, personally I can't get in the Boba culture but she said it was delish...and she's 12 years old. Unlike a traditional sushi dining experience. there is no flair, no pre-eats, no high affluent choices. And that is what makes this eaterie relevant. Delicious rolls that are plentiful, in a non-pretentious environment. You could easily dine-in and go and if you have at least an hour, it could be a quick date or lunch or solo, or just because. I appreciated the Calypso juice choices. No soda fountain machines, only cans. And the only free refill is water. By the way the ginger was extra good. High fives So reasonably priced even on a college student budget Excellent service from greetings to expeditious clean-up after customers Fresh and fresh Soy sauce brand is good and not too salty Meh No appetizers except seaweed salad Thumbs down Parking, not their fault but still a factor Despite the gratuity backlash, this place deserves it "If you compliment yourself, you don't have to rely on others." read more

We came here at about 3:15 on a Saturday. We were the only customers there. The servers were attentive and kind. Ee loved the casual atmosphere. We had 4 rolls, an order of bao buns, a Sapporo, and an order of nigiri. Everything was excellent and it ended up being only $80. We will definitely be back here next time we are in SD. read more

Food: 2/5 Service: 0/5 Ambiance: 0/5 Wow. I can't believe people rate this place well. I stopped by because the average rating was decent and the prices are much lower than sushi spots in central San Diego. Definitely will not be back. Bring your headphones because there is no music here and the only sound is their extremely loud AC mini split unit. So annoying. For 1 roll, 1 sashimi order and 1 hot sake, total came to $47. Surprising because from the prices on the menu, it should have been $35. Well, they charge extra for two water and wasabi and ginger on both dishes. Really? Just include them in the price. Service is absolutely non existent here. No staff in the restaurant when I arrived at 6:15pm although 3 tables sat. I waited and finally yelled "hello?!" and a man walked out from the back. He gestured the bar because I was alone. Sure. He goes in the back again after I take a seat. 15 mins later and no water or anything. A female server comes out to her tables and then sees me and looks surprised. So the guy didn't tell anyone that a new customer came in... smh. I was ready to order by then so the lady took my order. I waited another 15 minutes for my water and 25 minutes for the sake and sushi. The food is Ralph's quality. I wish I saw the other review that said that. I ate about half my food and then decided I couldn't bare to stay any longer. I wanted to ask for the bill, but again, no staff for a long time. I finally got up from the bar and went to the host area. Again yelled, "hello?!?!?" and the lady came out again and took my payment. I rarely leave less than a 20% tip, but are you kidding me? This restaurant is over 2 years old, they should have their sh*t together by now. Terrible experience. read more

Hours: 9am - 9pm according to the very kind employee who helped me out today I live in the area and just realized this new addition on a Starbucks run. Great location and looks like a great setup for both dining in and takeout. It was just before 11am and there were already a handful of options to grab and go: California rolls, Dragon rolls, dumplings. I grabbed a prepared Golden Dragon Roll and ordered a Tuma Poke Bowl. Service was quick and friendly and they were playing the World Cup game. It was empty barring one other person doing a pickup, but it was kinda early for sushi. The quality of both was incredible! VERY FRESH and delicious, and a good price. I'll probably frequent this place often on teleworking days. read more

Takeout convenience is the best attribute of this newly opened sushi spot in the Bankers Hill neighborhood. Su Su Sushi is certainly not a dining destination like the more well-known Japanese establishments nearby. With that being said, they have a lot of table space inside which I don't know how they will fill up if the big selling point is grab-and-go sushi. There is bar seating too, however I don't when or if an alcohol license will be granted. The menu had a long list of basic sushi and poke bowl choices, including catering capabilities if you needed party tray quantities. Don't expect nigiri, sashimi, or exotic fishes though. Only a core set of maki roll varieties were premade and placed on refrigerated display next to the service counter. The setup was a larger version of what you see in the deli section of the local grocery stores. The size and prices of the rolls were similar with these being more freshly made. The top row of the display had plastic containers each holding three BBQ pork buns. I chose one of those and a Chef's Special for my order. I asked the buns to be heated because I was dining in. The dough was fluffy, but the BBQ pork filling was low. A better ratio of meat to dough would have been an improvement. The Chef's Special was 15 pieces of a California Roll base with salmon and/or tuna wrapped on the outside of 12 of them. They were arranged in a colorful formation on the tray. If buying average quality maki rolls to-go are what you are seeking to satisfy a craving, then Su Su Sushi is an alright option if you live or work in its vicinity. If you want gourmet, higher end sushi, then there are better places for that on the same block. read more

My new go-to spot for delicious sushi takeout at a good price. I'd definitely recommend.

Ordered and Picked up a party platter the morning of ! A bit scared of trying new sushi spots but this one was amazing !! Office loved it !

They make rolls with soy paperr!! I was very surprised and impressed because i just moved here and i really don't know anything about this place. They really did patiently listen to my picky taste and try their best. I'm very happy and glad with the results. The rolls are very fresh and yummy good and their price is pretty fair for a restaurant in downtown. Can't wait to try it again! read more

Check the prices. Wall says one thing (markedly higher than prices were just three months ago), and cash register will ring up something even higher. Two small bowls = $35?! The fish is store (read: Ralph's) bought. If you're desperate for crappy calories and have no other options, it's fine for one time only. Market Place is a better option or the burrito place on Fir. read more

My friend and I had a wonderful meal here. The spicy tuna rice cake, toro, and red snapper were fantastic. Our sushi chef is always wonderful and kind. The only thing I would change is updating their wine menu. I ordered two glasses of one particular wine. When the bill showed up, they had charged me more and told me they no longer had the one I ordered. Nobody came to let me know or ask me if I would like to switch. Other than that, we had a great time. read more

Not sure if the workers were arguing but it definitely seemed like it. We were not greeted and they just stared at us. When I said hello she just grunted. I ordered a coconut boba since we just stopped in from our walk. Neither of the workers said a word the entire time. The boba itself wasn't edible. It was watery and tasted like straight sunscreen. And the boba was MUSHY!!!! Like really soft... The food might be ok, but we don't care to find out. Horrible experience! read more

I just threw away $17 because the food I received was inedible. I ordered a poke bowl and they came back to me after several minutes to tell me they were out of my first choice of protein because they "couldn't find any shrimp in the freezer". I should have cancelled my order then and there and left but I changed to tuna and left with my to go order. I got back to my office and discovered that the tuna was really mushy and the rice had a thick layer of mayo all over it which was not listed in the menu- I hate mayo and would have asked to have it left off. After 3 or 4 bites I binned it because it was so awful. The kid working the counter was sweet and I feel bad for leaving this review but man my food was terrible. read more

Very good sushi rolls. Nice addition to my neighborhood. Been here a few times. You don't have to purchase the premade rolls in the display case unless you're in a hurry. They always made mine while I waited. I've had the caterpillar roll, tempura shrimp roll, California roll and Philadelphia roll. They were all good and fresh. They also have Poke bowls on their menu. I think once they get their liquor license and begin serving beer and wine, it will be more attractive for dine-in. read more

I love poke and it's hard to find a very good place, but this is it! I always get the chef creations with tuna, it's simple but so fresh ! And they prepared it with such great care! Another plus side is the price, less than $13 ! Next time I'll try the sushi, can't wait! read more

I were having a sushi craving and yelped it and saw a place that is closed by my office. Seem to be a new place. I am stoked!! I came in and checked it out and find it was in the place of a old sandwich shop that I gone to in the past. They are friendly helpers behind the counter. You can picked up the packages or ordered from its menu. My case I picked the packages from the counter and having myself a Sangria! They offer free jug of water if you dinned in here. They have cute decorations of mason jars for the most of their inner lights. The woman help me open up my bottle of Sangria! Super nice of her. read more

So good and not expensive at all, I had their bbq pork buns and they were so delicious, I also had the Volcano roll and my husband the Cali roll, they were great and made fresh. There's also premade ones up front if you have a short lunch break. We went when it has just opened and there was no people, so I'm not sure if it's different when busy but the lady up front was very nice and attentive she was the only one working at the time. The restaurant was very clean and had lots of TVs for entertainment. read more

Wanted a quick snack before the zoo and decided to stop here. It was very empty. We were greeted kindly by the sever. Unfortunately, the vibe was off and the menu was kind of weird with lots of items crossed out. Our server didn't know what a sake bomb was so we stuck with water. The sushi rice was mushy and just awful. The nigiri was okay... I probably would not recommend anyone coming here unfortunately. read more

Sushi was bland and boring. Service were terrible, and the cashier was so blasé that none of them greeted us. Did not even want to serve us beer on tab.

My boyfriend and I visited San Diego and looked at a couple of spots on yelp for sushi, this place caught our attention and it did not disappoint!! We highly recommend! Everything was made to perfection, very fresh and flavorful. We got the tempura shrimp roll, Volcano roll & Dragon BBQ eel roll as well as a side of edamame and seaweed salad which also exceeded our expectations. Everything such as tables and the cups were very clean and service was quick! The men who helped us were also very helpful in giving suggestions on choosing what to get. This is definitely a go to spot that anyone should try! And as my boyfriend said, it was "Oh so yummy in his tummy". read more

Ended up trying Su Su Sushi on a whim because it was close by and highly rated. I'm not sure if this place is under new management because the server said the menu was new and they didn't have some items yet. The sushi was edible but the quality felt the same as grocery store sushi. We were about the only ones there on a Saturday night and the service was very slow and once we got our food we never saw the server again. Super casual place, not sure if I'd come back to try more. read more

My son and I have been coming here for a while and the last two visits have been a disaster. The quality of the food and service has spiraled downwards. Today I ordered a tuna and salmon bowl to eat in the restaurant and I was directed to take a to go bowl and later found out that they added spicy mayo which was not listed on the menu. Also, they added items to my son's order that were not requested. The ambiance is not great but it was tolerable because of the food....with the food going downward it's not worth it to go anymore. It was fun while it lasted. read more

Excellent sushi and a great selection of sake. The ambiance is a little odd - kind of a cross between a fast food restaurant and a sports bar. It felt a little expensive for an order-at-the-counter place, but the food was great. read more
