Walked in for opening time right at 4:30. Was seated within a couple minutes. Staff is friendly. The vibe is cute, quaint, quiet, not overstimulating. I loved the guy at the bar that made our sushi. Super nice. The FOOD let me tell you, freshest sushi I've had. Got the mango roll and orange crush. Mango wasn't as sweet since out of season, but still a top tier roll. Orange crush was my favorite! I love lemon so I was wow'd by it. Overall 10/10 spot. read more

Went very last minute on a Friday night , the vibes, the hospitality & the quality of the food is very good! I've lived in clairemont my whole life and have never came here, will definitely start coming here more often! read more

The orange crush roll is crazy good! The fried cheese/crab wantons are a 10/10 and the salmon and spicy scallop hand rolls were incredible and fairly priced. This is my new go-to Sushi spot for sure! read more

Fresh delicious fish, fast friendly service, very chill ambience, and environment. Can't wait to come back.!!

My husband and I went here based on a rec from Reddit. We made a reservation over the phone only an hour out based on a tip in the reviews bc it gets busy and it's a small restaurant. It was very easy to do. Parking is limited and small but we were able to get one in the front of the restaurant. It gives off hole in the wall type of vibe and I would've have never noticed it from the street. Next to a LensCrafters and hair salon. We ordered salmon & salmon belly nigiri, Orange Crush roll, and Bomb Bomb roll. Everything was so fresh and filling. Now I understand why this place is like a hidden gem. My faves were the Salmon Belly nigiri bc it had the right amount of rice and the Bomb Bomb roll which had soft shell crab on top, which I've never seen before, paired well with the avocado on it. It was super delicious! Our server Angie was so quick and attentive. She was taking care of all the tables around us so fast, picking up dirty plates and refilling waters. Service was the best! Looking forward to coming back. read more

So good! So fresh....just really good! We got there right when they opened and there was a small line formed. It's a very small place, the 2 tables that sat more than a party of 2 already had reserved placards on them. We had to wait 5 min and were asked if we wanted to sit at bar or outside. I couldn't pinpoint why I wasn't completely satisfied but later figured out why. I asked my daughter(who loved it as much as I did) if the rolls were small because I never ate that much sushi. Besides that, we both had a slice of pizza when we got home. She said yes they were and that she noticed it. I visually didn't notice, but my tummy did. I would go back and not even care that they're a bit on the smaller side. They were delicious! read more

One of our favorite sushi spots in San Diego! Service is always friendly and it's a nice quaint ambiance and a true hidden gem in Clairemont. Hamachi Jalapeno is top tier, nigiri is always fresh and we love the bomb bomb roll, hot lover roll and the Fish Attach stack! Miso soup is great as well. read more

amazing and attentive service & high quality fish for a very reasonable price. have come back multiple times a month it's that good.

Best Salmon Skin Salad I've ever had!!! Chef dressing was balanced. And the salmon skin was crispy like bacon. Very, very, very generous amount of crispy salmon skin was provided to enjoy. Salmon skin has high concentration of Omega-3 fatty acids, Vitamins B and D and minerals like niacin, phosphorus and selenium. Convenient Take Out Window for pickup. The waiters were cordial and friendly and helpful. The restaurant was buzzing with happy patrons. Even the couple coming out was elated and joyful. I was very satisfied with my meal. Oops! Almost forgot about the Protein Roll. I liked it a lot. Some previous comments mentions a fishy taste. I didn't have that. I did wish I had a little cup to mix the wasabi and soy sauce for dipping (it was a take out). I definitely would order again. My wife wasn't so crazy about it. So, I reaped the benefits and had most of the roll for myself. read more

This place is great. From the salmon cheeks to the sushi we haven't tried anything we didn't like. And we are picky eaters. From Tina too. She's too shy to write a review The service is also top notch. Jin is the man. We'll see you all tomorrow :) read more

So delicious... Great menu selections. Very fresh. Service was excellent and very reasonably priced.

This is one of my favorite places in Clairemont and favorite sushi places in San Diego. They have a small location so you might want to get a reservation at night on a weekend. My favorite rolls are the hot kiss and hot lover. read more

Came here with my husband thinking they had happy hour but they ended it during COVID. We arrived at 4:30PM when they opened. We were immediately greeted and sat at the sushi bar. We ordered the crispy rice roll to start which was amazing! If you love crispy rice this roll is for you. We then ordered Hamachi Belly and Blue Fin Nigiri which was very fresh and flavorful. We asked for a recommendation on a roll and our server confirmed we liked spicy before suggesting a roll I can't remember the name of but wow was it good. By this time my husband and I were both saying these rolls were some of the best we have had in San Diego but the Volcano kinda ruined that. We ordered that as our last roll and it did not match the pictures on Yelp. It was much smaller and not very flavorful compared to the other rolls we had. That's the only reason I'm giving this place 4 stars. read more

Great authentic sushi. Everything was delicious and the service was good. We went mid week and did not make reservations but it might be a good idea if going on a weekend. read more

Small sushi spot with about 8 tables and bar seating. Has its own small parking lot. We ordered rolls so we can't speak much in the quality of fish here. The Orange Crush roll had scallops crab and salmon in one roll. It is worth the cost for being able to get those three items in one roll but when you eat it together the flavors blend into one. If anything you taste most of the scallop. The Mango Mango roll was a surprise because I've never had mango with my sushi before but the texture of the mango matches up with the salmon so it works. This was a lighter combo and altogether, "easier" to eat because you can distinctly taste those two ingredients. read more

The sushi at Fish Attack is my preferred sushi in all of San Diego County. You DON'T go here for the ambiance but for the flavor. The feng shui is way off, so if you're looking for a dining experience, this is NOT the place! If you're wanting incredibly fresh and flavorful sushi...Fish Attack will take care of you!! read more

NEIGHBORHOOD SUSHI JOINT (3.25 stars) ... to be specific, Clairemont neighborhood sushi. I thought to myself, at least it's close to Convoy when deciding to eat here. If neighborhood locals like it then it must be something. Well, I was hoping to give a better review but it's going to just be an average one. Arrived 5 minutes before opening. None Japanese guy was setting up the signs and etc. However, rudely says "we aren't open yet" ... "we open in 5 minutes". Well, don't open the doors wide open and have an open sign hanging. And can't people wait if they want to? Calm down dude, not like there's an aggressive line of hangry people behind me. Server and sushi chefs ARE Japanese. That was comforting. Received very well service from them. SUPER SALMON ($12.50) - in: real crab, *krab, cucumber, avocado top: fresh salmon, sliced lemon. I'm a sucker for rolls that have that thin slice of lemon on top. Many people have rant about this as a popular choice and so I went for it because it was the safe choice. Why does my roll look depressing compared to all other people's picture of the same roll. Mine just looks, sad. However when it came to me the presentation wasn't flattering as I've seen similar rolls like this in other places. And the rolls itself were average-good but not the best. The roll was soft, not chewy, and I tasted all flavors salmon, crab, and lemon. But I couldn't decipher where the real crab was mixed in with the imitation krab. SHRIMP TEMPURA ($6) - 3 pcs Deep-fried shrimps served w/tempura sauce. I couldn't justify the price for these 3 pieces. The batter around the shrimp fell a little flat with the crunch, maybe another minute in the fryer would have suffice. Not a fan of the dipping sauce for some reason. MISO SOUP - felt like instant miso soup. Lacked onion, seaweed, tofu. Maybe I need to come back and try other items on their menu. But I am not in a rush to do so. Until the next review... read more

10/10 best sushi in San Diego - and I like Uni / quail egg / you name it. The quality is top notch here.

This place might have the best sushi I've had in San Diego. The service is great and I love the atmosphere, very calming and a good date spot. I'll keep coming back. read more

Never had a sushi spot that really stood out from the rest, this one does for sure. The service and atmosphere are also great as well. Hidden gem. read more

Great service , amazing quality sushi , really love this place. We're going to come back for sure.

We ate here about 5 years ago and did not like the quality or the ambiance. Since then they have updated the interior but the quality of the fish is still less than average sushi restaurant quality. The tempura shrimp in one of the rolls we had was mushy and cold. One of the best parts of any roll with tempura anything is that it is crunchy, warm and freshly cooked. The rice was not the sticky rice you would normally have in sushi. It was larger grain, saturated and had a strange texture, like it was premade rice or was sitting around for awhile. The garlic edamame was covered with a watered down teriyaki type sauce that was messy and not very tasty. The "crab mixture" was heavy on the mayo and had no flavor. The ginger was not crisp, it was soggy and small pieces. CONCLUSION: We will not be going back to Sushi Fish Attack. read more

This place is really really awesome. Showed up with that reservations we got a table outside, the service was really good. Sushi was excellent and you must try the spicy crispy Rice roll, uni nigiri was so sweet and tasty. Greta place and a must try read more

This used to be one of the best sushi restaurants in San Diego. Now they're hardly any different than so many other substandard sushi restaurants. While sushi rolls aren't found in Japan, I love them because of their complex flavors, textures, and quality ingredients especially the fish. They're intended to be enhanced sushi, cuts of sashimi mixed with fresh cucumber, seaweed, rice, and sometimes a sauce. But almost all specialty rolls here are made of cheap processed mixed fish called krab or cooked shrimp. This is not sushi by any standards. I'll be looking for someplace else to get sushi. So disappointed. read more

I've had this place bookmark for awhile now and finally got the chance to try it out! Kind of a hole in the wall place. There parking can get pretty full and there's a sign that you can't park in the next plaza over where lens crafters is lol. Anyways , what I ordered : -Strawberry nigori- would pass on this next time -Orange crush roll- 5/5 I would definitely order this again! -Nigiri- hamachi belly, sake belly, toro, bluefin tuna The nigiri were really big pieces and the fish was reallly fresh and great quality! Definitely would order nigiri from here again! My friend ordered the spicy crispy rice , I would pass on this. It was executed differently from other places, just wasnt the best. Overall, the food was good but the service wasn't the best. read more

I eat a LOT of sushi, and this is by far the best one I have been to in San Diego. Their menu has such a large selection on unique rolls and their fish is so fresh. Everyone I have brought to this place is absolutely blown away as well. 10/10 would recommend!! read more

One of my favorites for Sushi. Recommend making reservations or you may not get it. Really good sushi. Service was good this time, I've had better here before. Still recommend trying it here! Great food! Good prices too. read more

This place is the bomb excellent sushi very fresh large pieces very good service and plenty of parking

This is the best so far I've been to in San Diego. I know I need to expound on that but the fact it is, you just need to come here to savor, understand and experience the party that happened in my mouth when we ate here. We had hamachi Kama, fish attach stack, ex girlfriend, bomb bomb, jalapeño bomb, dynamite, spicy crunch shrimp, Sapporo and an Asahi for me. All of these are top notch. Very nice people/staff. The sushi chef here mean business in their preparation of the "dishes". We sat at the sushi bar coz we don't have reservations and I personally think, they enjoyed seeing how our faces lit up every time we tried what was prepared before us. I would sit at the bar anytime. Just excellent! Oh parking can be a nightmare though So I choose to come as soon as they open. read more

3 rolls came out to 50$ which is fine if it were great and fresh tasting but only the Crispy rice roll was great. The rest were just meh- so doused in eel sauce we couldn't taste anything else... read more

Well after a year of covid and not dining out, yesterday we happen to pull up on suhi fish attack right as they were opening. no one was around. NOT 1 customer so we decided to dine in outside. they did a temp check at the door. I wasn't expecting it but i loved that!. we paid for our meal in advance before we even started eating. we got about 10 mins into our meal before another couple came so we busted the rest of it down and played like a ghost and disappeared. The food was of course still amazing. this place is one of my fav sushi joints in SD. they are taking full covid precautions and I'm glad my food money is going to a place that cares!! read more

It's kind of an oddly named sushi place, and kinda oddly located, but the quality was impressive, service excellent, and beer selection awesome. It's not a large restaurant but has outdoor seating available. Apparently they are also big in the take-out game as they have a dedicated window for that. Inside the ambiance is less traditional sushi place, not fully breaks you wallet upscale; its a nice contemporary vibe. Excellent for a nice night out or date night. They've got an impressive selection of rolls, but you can tell the high quality of the place from their sushi. If love to go omakase there and see what the chefs come up with. Loved their selection of Japanese beers beyond the Asahi and Sapporo (love those beers but it's nice to see where Japanese craft brewing is going). Overall a great experience, price point was pretty good all things considered. Recommended and looking forward to a return visit! read more

Off the beaten path in Clairemont is this sushi place of a gem. My sister recommended this place to me and it didn't disappoint. They have a small parking lot thou plenty of spaces after a Certain time. I highly suggest making a reservation. There is an open patio where we sat outside for fresh air and to be able to hear each-other. Impressive menu with a variety of wonderful items. For appetizers we started with: Edamame Hamachi Kama with ponzu sauce Seaweed salad Ordered two speciality sushi with scallops and salmon And real crab with avocado and lemon Sake for digestive drink and Perrier sparkling water Dessert Green tea and strawberry mochi Everything we finished. The hamachi is not often found in many sushi joints, thou this was made to perfection. Succulent and juicy. We didn't leave any scraps of food. Sushi fresh and creative menu I'm excited to share this place with family and friends and anticipating for my next return. read more

Customer service?!?! It's 4:30pm and we are walking in for dinner. 5 adults and 2 kids. "We do not seat tables over 5". Me: Ok since your entire restaurant is open, how about two tables next to each other? "Let me check. We have a table outside but you have to be out in 55 minutes. Just to let you know that with large parties it takes a long time to get the sushi out". Me: Technically we are 5 adults and a 2 yr and 3 yr old that won't eat sushi. Your entire restaurant is empty. Pretty sure it will be ok. What about inside? "No. Let me know what you decide. You would have 55 minutes. Thank you. We are locals, our second time here with attitude. Sushi is good. Not incredible. Definitely not fantastic enough to come with such attitude. Strike two and we will not be back. read more
