What People Are Saying About Zensei Sushi
The Editor
Amy Eddo

In Short – Innovative sushi rolls, sake concoctions and fresh-spun tunes invoke a trendy Tokyo café vibe in San Diego's North Park. Local pride shows in the display of revolving artwork and inspires rolls like the 30th and Upas (spicy tuna inside, tuna and avocado on top with a spicy sauce). Save room for the main event after a tasty selection of appetizers such as fried gyoza with spicy mayonnaise, flame broiled chicken yakitori and several tempura options.

Zensei Sushi, not reccomended
by SDexplorer at Citysearch
I was surprised that this place had such great reviews. Every roll we ordered, at 12.50 a piece, had chipotle sauce on it. Gross!
- Pros: Great vibe.
- Cons: I knew what I was looking for and I still walked right by.

Top quality food, excellent service: A real find.
by mjsmjs at Citysearch
Thank you! We were four adults and three small kids in town from Santa Barbara and Houston to do the Sea World, Legoland, etc tour. We all eat Japanese food frequently and Zensei was a real find: excellent food, broad menu, incredibly friendly and thoughtful service, reasonable prices, and mellow ambiance. If we lived in San Diego, Zensei would be our regular weekly Japanese fix.
- Pros: Varied menu and delicious food, very friendly service
- Cons: TV on all the time

Any restaurant creditable of making the Zagat rating is a place worth trying. For 2008, Zensei Sushi was one of the few selected in the Zagat, listed amongst America's Top Japanese Restaurants.
