Himitsu sits at 1030 Torrey Pines Rd G in La Jolla, a few minutes from the coast in San Diego. The restaurant is built around a sushi counter, with no other seating configuration listed, which places the focus squarely on watching the preparation unfold. The cuisine is Edomae sushi, the traditional Tokyo style of preparing and curing fish before serving.

Service runs across most of the week but not daily. Tuesday through Friday, Himitsu opens for a midday sitting from 11:30 to 2:30pm, then reopens for dinner in the early evening. Thursday and Friday dinner service runs until 9:30 or 9:45pm depending on the day, while Saturday is a single continuous service from 11:30am to 9:45pm. The restaurant is closed on Sunday and Monday.

Himitsu is positioned at the top price tier on OmakaseGuide's scale, consistent with a counter-only omakase format, though the restaurant has not published specific menu pricing. Reservations are handled through OpenTable, and the restaurant can also be reached directly by phone for questions about availability or seating.

Given the counter-only layout, seating is presumably limited, though an exact seat count is not listed. Anyone planning a visit should confirm current pricing, any tasting menu structure, and seating capacity directly with the restaurant, since these details are not part of the published information available here.
