Fodor's Expert Review Sushi Ota

Fodor's Choice
One fan called it “a notch above amazing”—an accolade not expected for a Japanese eatery wedged in a strip mall in Pacific Beach. But it’s a destination for lovers of high-quality, superfresh raw fish from around San Diego and abroad; reservations strongly encouraged.
The front parking lot is very small, but there's additional parking behind the mall.
