San Diego Sushi Tour

The AFK San Diego Sushi Tour is a small-group evening walking food tour focused on fresh, high-quality sushi sourced from the Pacific Ocean.

San Diego’s coastal location gives local sushi chefs direct access to some of the best fish in the country. This means the experience is built around seasonal, rotating selections — based on what’s freshest and most interesting that day.

The tour follows the Japanese tradition of omakase, which means “I’ll leave it to you.” Instead of ordering from a menu, you’ll trust the chefs — and our guides — to curate a progression of dishes that showcase the best fish and techniques available that night.

What to Expect

On the San Diego Sushi Tour, you’ll:

  • Visit multiple sushi restaurants

  • Enjoy a chef-curated omakase-style experience

  • Taste fresh and seasonal fish varieties

  • Experience rotating menus that change regularly

  • Learn about fish sourcing, preparation, and sushi techniques

  • Walk an easy route through real neighborhoods

As you eat, our knowledgeable guides explain each fish and dish, giving you a deeper understanding of:

  • Where the fish comes from

  • Why it’s in season

  • How it’s prepared

  • Which part of the fish you’re eating and how that affects flavor and texture

You won’t just eat sushi — you’ll actually understand what makes it great.

Why San Diego Is a Great Sushi City

San Diego’s proximity to the Pacific gives chefs access to a wide variety of fish that many cities simply don’t get. Combined with a strong culinary scene and experienced sushi chefs, this creates a sushi culture that’s fresh, dynamic, and constantly evolving.

No two tours are ever exactly the same — which is what makes this experience unique.
