SOICHI San Diego Reviews from The Last Year
I walked in having no idea that this is a Michelin rated
I walked in having no idea that this is a Michelin rated restaurant! I got seated at the sushi bar right away. The man next to me said that he made his reservation 4 months earlier. It was a delightful experience. The decor is simple but elegant and soothing to the eye. The service was excellent. The sushi chef's were amazing to watch. In fact I would recommend getting reservations at the bar. It was like watching a food ballet. I had a very pleasant conversation with the man next to me and the chef explained everything that I was getting.
The sushi, service, and presentation was exceptional.
It is a very intimate atmosphere and the staff is so welcoming. Our server encouraged us to try a few sake selections before ordering. So fun! My husband ordered the 8 course omikase for dinner and I ordered sushi al a carte. Everything was wonderful and delicious! My husband and I both agreed we experienced the finest service ever! Not an exaggeration and we are well traveled. It is definitely an occasion restaurant! We will be back!!!
Long awaited dinner at Michelin-star Soichi Restaurant
Long awaited dinner at Michelin-star Soichi Restaurant (only one of 2 Michelin star Japanese restaurants in San Diego). We had the 11-course omakase, and it was so delicious! We even tried two different sake (and got to choose our sake cup for the meal). Reservations can only be made on 1st day of the month for following month. It gets booked up fast, and we waited almost 2 years to finally get a table! It was worth the wait!
A great meal with wonderful service! Deserving of all the
A great meal with wonderful service! Deserving of all the hype! You really do need to plan well in advance and make reservations.
5 stars all around.
Thank you Soichi for being my favorite restaurant in San Diego to dine at for the last 5 years. They are consistent in providing stellar sushi, friendly service with a smile, great hospitality, and a fun but chill ambiance. If it's your birthday, the chef will make you feel extra special with a serenade. They also consistently provide gluten free omakase at the restaurant; I feel just as welcomed as any other diner. Thank you always. Parking isn't bad. Reservations go out on the 1st of every month at noon; waitlists are available... stay vigilant and be patient. It's worth it!
This place was amazing.
It really lives up to the hype. We did the omakase and was the best experience we ever had. Everything was so fresh and delicious. Sushi chef Daniel was exceptional. Every course was just amazing and the flavors were so balanced. Their service was also exceptional. The inside was intimate but also spacious. Highly recommend this place and we will definitely be coming back.
Undistinguished dining room made up for by some of the best
Undistinguished dining room made up for by some of the best sushi in San Diego with friendly and helpful service. Worth the trip.
We've been here a couple of times and love it.
The quality of the ingredients is top. Delicate preparation and presentation of dishes. Excellent service, too. We'll be back!
Soichi San, Raechel San, your staff.
.....you're the best. Food is beyond spectacular. Always a memorable experience when we visit.
Simply the BEST! We've been trying to get reservations for
Simply the BEST! We've been trying to get reservations for years even before their coveted Michelin award but unable to, then got to experience the best Omakase! Friendly, Family, Fine Dining, Finesse, Fulfilled is what you'll get.
Omakase Dinner is EXCELLENT!
My boyfriend and I have been visiting Michelin star restaurants when we travel. Soichi Sushi did not disappoint. We had the Omakase Dinner and LOVED it! We even got to meet Chef Soichi at the end of our meal and snapped a picture with him!
Very good
Over the last 15 years I ate at 15-20 sushi restaurants in and around San Diego, amongst them Sushi Ota, Kaito Sushi, Hane Sushi, Sushi Tadokoro and now Soichi Sushi. These are all very good places to eat sushi. In the Netherlands (where I'm from), good sushi places are harder to find than in SoCal. In low quality sushi restaurants, the rice is often mushy (too little bite/resistance), grainy (the rice does not stick and falls apart when you lift it) or flavorless (perhaps due to no or poor quality vinegar?). Another common problem is that the fish is often without flavor and/or served too cold. While it is pretty easy to distinguish a poor sushi restaurant from a very good one, it is harder for me to understand why one very good sushi restaurant earns a Michelin star and another one does not. Our meal at Soichi was very enjoyable. The waiter was super friendly and helpful. We got to taste three different types of sake before ordering a bottle that was truly outstanding. I had the full omakase which consisted of several different courses, not only sushi. A large variety of different fish was offered which I really liked. The toro and scallop were excellent. My wife is vegetarian and ordered individual dishes rather than omakase. Including tip and tax the bill amounted to $350, which I think is a lot of money (although I realize prices have gone up significantly in the last couple of years). Is it the best sushi restaurant in San Diego? That's hard to say. Kaito Sushi and Sushi Tadokoro are also very good. If I had to pick a favorite, it would probably be Sushi Tadokoro. But then, there are many sushi restaurants I have not yet tried.
100% Recommend Chef Soichi San My Husband and I was able
100% Recommend Chef Soichi San My Husband and I was able to dine in with him at the bar! We loved every moment of it! Thank you and your staff for your kindness! We not only enjoyed the ambiance of friendliness and hospitality but we truly enjoyed every single dish that came out! We got the class full omakese menus plus added a whole bunch extra stuff after! All their appetizers were on spot so delicious! Can I say, fresh? Hello! Yes, super fresh and supper delicious. We've been to several omakese and Soichi lived up to their expectations. Thank you chef Soichi for a wonderful time and allowing my husband to enjoy his time here! We loved every single fish and seafood you gave us! I can't even name them to be honest! See my pictures for reference!!
We put ourselves on the waitlist for anything that was
We put ourselves on the waitlist for anything that was available and got an email, which we booked reservations ASAP! When we arrived, we were seated by the hostess. The restaurant is small with a 10 person seating at the bar and a few tables inside and two outside. We went with the nigiri omakase which was $110 because we like to order extra nigiri at the end (ones we didn't try or really liked). I will say, everything we had was delicious! From the appetizers, the oyster was fresh and the monk fish liver was tasty. The nigiri, everything was also fresh and delicious. The otoro melted in our mouths and the Hokkaido uni was creamy and sweet. Each piece got better and better. I think I've tried trigger fish once but it was so good, my husband order another one at the end of the omakase meal. That along with Japanese sardine. We were at another sushi restaurant a few days before and Soichi does Golden Eye Snapper much better. The hostess and chef were very attentive and made sure we had a great time. Overall, our meal lasted 2 hours. We did find street parking pretty easily. We would definitely return!
I thought I had made a reservation for this place.
I show up there and the host says that there are 300 people in the "waitlist". While I understand this is a popular place, the delivery of the message was terrible. I felt as if the host made fun of me in front of the entire restaurant. Extremely disrespectful. My friends drove all the way from LA to have a good time, while I was not expecting to be seated, I was expecting that my party would be treated with respect. I don't care how "good" the food is. Customers should be treated respectfully not received by an obnoxious host. I am never stepping foot in this place again.
I have been to Soichi perhaps 6 times, always seated at the
I have been to Soichi perhaps 6 times, always seated at the bar for omakase. Reservations are hard to get, but so, so worth it. This is an incredible, elevated sushi experience. Chef Soichi and his team send out incredibly creative and delicious creations, and share with you what you are having, where the fish was sourced, etc. Soichi is extremely engaging. If you're having omakase, you will receive pieces one by one, giving you time to savor each one. By the end of your meal, you'll be satisfied - but craving your next visit!
Awesome service! Good sushi and booze.
Friendly atmosphere that felt authentic. Heads up that food does come out slowly as they make it
Michelin star must try.
The evening couldn't have been better. We drove by and on a whim and stopped by this place not knowing it was a Michelin restaurant. Very intimate venue with 2 tables outside, 3 tables inside, and the sushi bar. We asked if there was availability for 2 and we were advised they were booked for the night. We walked outside to contemplate our next move when to our surprise said they could fit us in within about 30 min. They called me in less than 30 min to tell me the table was ready and seated us. The staff were super friendly and knowledgeable. After ordering an item we were checked in on and then made recommendations based on our likes. The food was AMAZING! This is a must try and they only open up the books once a month on the first of the month to book a spot for the next month. We got super lucky to get a chance to try out this great spot and will for sure be back.

me and my boyfriend came for the full omasake ($150 per person). let me tell you it's worth everything. from the tasting dishes, soups, fish, dessert, drinks, etc everything was so flavorful and fresh. the service was so excellent, the staff and chef explain everything on the dish. the staff is so attentive and friendly. the only downside was the parking. there is no parking structure or parking lot. you have to be lucky enough to find parking on the road!
Everything from the food to the service and ambiance was
Everything from the food to the service and ambiance was 15/10. I cannot believe how great the meal was. Soichi's wife greeted us when we first arrived and our table was not quite ready so she said we could grab drinks at her daughter's restaurant next door and she would come get us when the table was ready. When we were able to get seated, Rachel reviews the entire menu with us and allowed us to sample the sake before deciding on a bottle. We ended up getting 3 different bottles throughout the night. One was Dewazakura Ginjo Ouka and another being Sohomare Karakuchi Junmai. For dinner, I selected to do the nigiri omakase while everyone else I went with did the full omakase. Everything that we ate was spectacular. I'm still learning to love raw fish so getting the nigiri option was perfect for me. Nothing that we ate was super fishy and more so melted in your mouth. I'd have to say the last course was my favorite. Lots of tuna and a hand roll!!!! I ended my omakase with a scoop of matcha ice cream and it was the perfect end treat. Next time I go back, I'd like to sit at the sushi bar without a doubt. Overall, one of the best restaurants I've ate at and will definitely be back!!
Exceptional experience here!!! From food, to service, to
Exceptional experience here!!! From food, to service, to ambiance, everything was great! After checking in for the reservation, I was promptly greeted by the host and guided to my seat. I tried the nigiri omakase and loved the full course! All the fish is super fresh and the chef is very informative with explaining where the fish came from and how it was prepared. I felt very welcomed and part of the journey. Chef Soichi is very generous and will answer all your questions. You have to come try all the dishes here! All the fish has a unique flavor and melts in your mouth! I am already exited to come back and try other dishes!!! You won't regret it!!! Cheers guys!!!
It took us eternity to get reservations, but sooo worth it!
It took us eternity to get reservations, but sooo worth it! I couldn't believe how delicious the sushi was and the chefs were so cool and funny! It was such a pleasure eating here.

Great Service - amazing dinner!!
Read about the site in NYT and bought a reservation at Mother Wolf in LA 2 days later. Worked great and the food was amazing!!!
Worked perfectly!
Got the reservation (that I couldn't get anywhere else) and was able to entertain a group of friends at the infamous Bern's Steakhouse.
Got into Nobu Malibu
Wonderful! My parents are visiting and we have wanted to go to Nobu Malibu for years. I tried getting a reservation myself but it was next to impossible. So glad I was able to buy a reservation on appointment trader for a decent price!
Very easy
Was very hesitant going into this experience but am glad to say that it worked out very well ! will definitely use appointment trader in the future
Fabulous Lunch
I was veeeeeerry skeptical that this would work, particularly at a restaurant as hard to get into as Nobu Malibu, and it was perfect! We had lunch outside on the patio and it was fabulous!
Great reviewer team
Just wanted to take a second to shout out the reviewer team. Even though they probably review hundreds of listings and bids a day, they still take the time to leave great comments and respond relatively quickly. Thanks!
Incredible
I got a reservation to Don Angie, which I've been trying to book for weeks! I am very happy with this service.
Best platform out there!
Super simple, easy, and fast to secure reservations for hard-to-get restaurants and locations!
This app is life changing
This app has opened my world up to so many wonderful new experiences I would never have the chance to have without access to this awesome app! 10/10!
Worked perfectly
Was a little nervous at first but was pleased to see that the booking went through flawlessly.
Highly recommended.
Success on Short Notice
Was able to snag an indoor table at Don Angie through an absolutely seamless worry-free process.
Worked perfectly, thank you!
This is a crazy holiday season in NYC and I was very pleasantly surprised to see that AppointmentTrader works! Will be using again!
Worked flawlessly!
Worked so well! I was a bit nervous, but everything went very smoothly. purchased the reservation, and got into the restaurant seamlessly.
Love this app!
So glad I came across this app :)
Quick table in Miami
I didn’t have my hopes high as it was a party of 4. In 24 hours I had a carbone reservation available! I was very happy as my family really wanted to come here
Prime time, great meal
So easy and had a prime time which I can never seem to get on normal res apps. So worth it
Got impossible NYC res
instead of waiting weeks I got my 4 charles reservation instantly
Worked perfectly to get into Carbone. So delighted
perfect
Worked well, got me into a restaurant with no availability
I was skeptical, and I still don't really know how they managed to find this hard-to-find reservation, but it was a win-win from my point of view, and I'll use this service again.
Last minute reservation for Delilah Las Vegas
Got a last minute reservation, dinner for 2 at Delilah Las Vegas: super impressed! The process was simple, transaction seamless. We had an amazing time! Couldn’t be happier! 😍
It works!
Ok at this point I've attended a reservation purchased on AT by a friend and sold a reservation personally. Both worked pretty smoothly, nothing sketchy about it. A few areas for improvement including a way to more directly communicate between buyers and sellers, but the app always seems to be in development. AT customer support is really(!) responsive and helpful too if you have questions!
Money transfer
As a seller, I like the fact i have the ability now to transfer money out of my AT account and into a bank account. Makes getting the money much easier then the process before.
Love this app
Got to go to places otherwise unreachable
Easy Access
Very easy to get into one of the hardest restaurants to reserve in New York.
Payouts Blocked Because of Sell Through Rate
Does anyone know how AT plans to handle cases where a seller is quitting the platform but has a sell through rate <25%? The error message I got said to fill more bids or find other ways to increase the rate.
Is AT really going to block sellers from withdrawing their money? Especially revenue made before the sell through rate was introduced??
Tune into NBC News - Top Story Tonight 7:40p ET
Let’s go. Get more people placing bids!
I will give you 50% of ALL of my PROFITS if you teach me how to make profits?
LOL. Thank you The New Yorker.
Appointment
Transferring reservations is not supported in AT. Why not just use the name in the AT screenshot?
Buyers interested in Bern's Steakhouse: PLEASE READ
Same goes for 4 Charles and I Sodi
Prepaid Reservation Fee
Agreed. Ultimately not addressing this month after month is clearly resulting in a drop in certain venue’s rankings & sales.
Congrats on 3 mil
🍾🍾🍾🍾🍾🍾🧨🧨🧨 now on to 30 mill!
Need to cancel a bid, not getting a response… how do I do it?
Click on "Take off the Market Option" in your portfolio
Working on your bid?
Your bid has been “matched” with a reservation. From the time a reservation has been located, the seller of the reservation must connect with moderator to give transfer information for reservation. If the seller;however, does NOT respond to reservation transfer, then your bid is reprocessed and returns to the first step, which is connecting your request to a reservation.
Process after bid is accepted.
Hey @EvocativeFold67, welcome to appointmenttrader! Once the reservation is in your portfolio, you definitely own the timeslot, the review team would not have approved the trade if the reservation wasn't confirmed - so you are going :-) Judging from your post you bid today and are going tomorrow - don't worry as long as you initiated the name transfer, you are good - the transfer service has to work with the opening hours of the reservation team of the respective venue. You will likely see the transfer confirmation a couple hours before your reservation time.
Where do the Reservations on AppointmentTrader come from?
Mostly from people who don't need their reservations or appointments any longer. AT has no relationship with places listed and acts as a platform connecting buyers and sellers making sure that listed reservations are real and that privacy is not compromised when transacting.
What happens if my bid expires unanswered?
Hey @FluffyStar64, thanks for the question! When you place your bid the amount gets transferred in a deposit account, the second you either cancel your bid or a few minutes after the bid expires the funds are moved back into your main account from where you can refund it to your payment method or use for other transactions.
