Soichi is a counter-only sushi restaurant in San Diego's University Heights neighborhood, run by Chef Soichi and focused on Edomae-style omakase. The format is seasonal and set by the chef, with no à la carte menu and no lunch service.
Service runs five evenings a week, Wednesday through Sunday, from 4:30 PM to 9:30 PM; the restaurant is closed Monday and Tuesday. Reservations are managed through Tock, the standard system for booking a seat at the counter. Given the counter-only format, seats are limited and advance booking is recommended.
The restaurant sits at 2121 Adams Ave in San Diego and falls into the luxury price tier, reflecting the chef's tasting-menu approach to Edomae preparations. Diners can reach the restaurant directly by phone at (619) 677-2220 for questions not covered by the online booking system.
Soichi also offers gift certificates, available as physical cards or digital certificates, either online or in person. For anyone planning a visit, confirming current pricing, seating times, and availability directly through Tock or by phone is the most reliable approach, since omakase pricing and nightly seating counts can shift with the season.
