Super friendly staff and incredibly fresh sushi!! My lunch special bento box was absolutely delicious and a great deal - one of the best sushi meals I’ve ever had. Strongly recommend checking this place out! Yum!
Great quality fish and great attention to detail. Loved the little bursts of flavours each dish had! The price was extremely reasonable for the quality of food. Would go again!
I’m a novice sushi eater, but this sushi is bomb AF. 🔥🔥
The fish melts in your mouth and leaves it watering for more. Friendly and attentive service, great spot for lunch.

This place has the BEST sushi. While there may be Cheaper places "around the corner on Broadway" that serve your marginal grade for convenience, Nara has the QUALITY everyone craves. Don't miss this!
UPDATE: July 2019 - Most Unfortunate, I Hate to report they are Now Permanently Closed. Tragic! The ONLY downtown Sushi Resto with FRESH food and Quality Unbeaten. So sad for this Owner.
Korean running Sushi restaurant low the bar but pleasantly good sushi. Service is quick and with lots of smile.
Sushi was great, however don't chit-chat with the sushi chef unless you want to worry about becoming a human nigiri.
The beef and chicken that my friends got were really good. I was unsatisfied w/ my fish. But everything else was good. The staff was super nice.
Enjoyed quality food. The owners were very friendly and service was good as well.
Amazing, the people there were very friendly and I recommend this place for people who love sushi.
Good fish, no waiting at all when I was there (around 12 noon)
Great sushi and friendly staff. I would give 5 stars but my girlfriend and I were seated directly next to another group on a bench seat when the entire restaurant was empty, excluding both parties. I don't know about you but when I eat out, I'm not fond of sitting within 1ft of another group I don't even know. Other than this, nothing negative to say. The food was great, the atmosphere was good, and the restaurant was clean and well maintained.
Passed up a super busy sushi joint to try out this place that was almost empty and was so surprised! Some of the best sushi and food I've ever had. Their original and creative sushi rolls were fantastic. The bento dishes both came with perfectly cooked and seasoned dishes. We left full and happy that night.
The lemon salmon roll is awesome! Like no other roll I've ever had, and I've had them all. Service is great. It's a family run business with lovely people. All smiles and very welcoming.
Wasn't sure what to expect when I got here since it was mostly empty and none of my friends have ever heard of it. Once we got our food we knew that this place was great. The sushi was great and the chicken teriyaki was way better than expected. Give this place a go.
I was in during the afternoon lull and had a fantastic meal. Very fresh and properly prepared sushi, cold beer and a great location in the Gaslamp District, directly across the street from the Balboa Theater. Nara will definitely be on my "Gotta Stop" list for San Diego visits from now on.
Great hole in the wall. Fantastic alcoholic options offered, try the bok bun ja (Korean raspberry wine) if you haven't had it before. You don't see it offered in many Japanese restaurants so it's special. Amazing quality of sushi, the salmon literally melts in your mouth. Large sashimi portions. Good prices for downtown. Unlike other Japanese restaurants downtown, their menu offers combo sushi dishes. Would come back again.
