Take the
detour.

Owner Sera was born and raised in Yokohama and has called San Diego home for nearly fifteen years. She opened the first Sushi Yorimichi in the heart of Linda Vista in 2021. The idea was simple. Bring the feeling of a real Japanese izakaya, the after-work spot where friends linger over small plates and a drink, to the neighborhood, at prices that stay friendly.

The food is authentic Japanese with a few playful detours. Tonkotsu and shoyu ramen sit beside a Tijuana-leaning birria ramen and an udon take on carbonara. Yakitori, sashimi, hand rolls and sushi bowls round it out, generous and genuinely affordable.

As one regular put it, there is a hominess here you would not trade for anything.
