Best Asian Restaurants in Sorrento Mesa

Food, vibes and decor were amazing! 10/10 for sure and will be going back. I would note that we went at 7:15 on a Saturday and the music turned up around 8:30. We didn’t mind but could be notable for some people. Best dishes agreed on by the group: #1 wagyu sliders, #2 tuna tartar.

My friends and I celebrated my birthday. The food was delicious , service was good, and good prices for happy hour.

Was a little confusing on how to order, but we all eventually got what we wanted. Thanks

First time dining at AKA and it was excellent. The food was great and the restaurant had a cool vibe, a little clubby with a DJ booth that I believe got started later in the evening. The best part of the meal was the cold apps, including the miso snapper and tuna poke, but all the dishes were strong.

I recently moved from Los Angeles so I've had incredible sushi experiences and have been lucky to befriended some of the best Sushi Chefs in Southern California. As I transition to San Diego a lot of the highly-rated Sushi places on Yelp have largely been focused on Sushi Rolls (nothing wrong with that) but personally for myself the best experience is usually the opportunity to engage the sushi chefs at the sushi bar and listen to how the sushi was prepared vs getting a tray of sushi that needs wasabi and soy sauce. To each their own but I can say that if you want a true sushi dining experience then Boto Sushi Del Mar provides that. It is a cute little restaurant and one of the longest sushi bars I've seen outside of Nobu or Roku. I had Omakasa by Chef Gary and everything was close to perfection with a variety of different dishes aside from the core Nigori sushi and some Sashmi. Each dish was delivered individually and explained how it was prepared by either the Chef or by the great staff. Enjoyed my first real exploration of Sushi in North County and will be back.
