Tappi sushi 2 — Restaurant in San Diego

I had a terrific lunch from this place. They make some very delicious rolls. I had the mix tempura, salmon sashimi, the Barcelona Roll, and I asked the sushi chef to surprise me for my last roll, adn he made the T-Town Roll named after Tierrasanta, which turned out to be the best thing I ate during my visit. It is not to say the rest was not good because it was very good.

The tempura arrived piping hot and crispy. The tempura shrimp were dynamite. They had a succulent texture and great flavor. The veggies and root vegetables were also very good. I really liked the onion and the sweet potato.

I am a fan of salmon sashimi. The salmon was good and good and offered a good silky texture and flavor. The Barcelona roll was very good. It had shrimp tempura, gobo, cucumber, and krab on the inside; and seared albacore, avocado, green onions, and spicy ponzu on the outside It was very flavorful. Finishing it up with the spicy ponzu was perfect.

The T-Town Roll was amazing, and it is no surprise that it's a neighborhood favorite. It, too, came with shrimp tempura inside, but it had tuna on the outside topped with a jalapeno slice and spicy mayo that was torched and seared. I loved this specialty roll! The torching gave the jalapeno a nice charred flavor. The tuna was great, and so was the shrimp tempura inside. This roll is a winner.

Isabel was my server. She was very sweet and attentive. She made great suggestions, too. The sushi chef, Rany, was very cool and in good spirits. They offer inside and...

Very bad service! Avocado in the Suchi rolls was not fresh at all, rice did not taste good.

Reason of my one star mainly for:

I placed an order to go for my 3 little daughters, 15 minutes later I came to the restaurant to pick it up but after paying for it I realized that I needed the chopsticks helpers for the little ones to assist eating the Suchi, I was given two by an indivisual then another server comes to the cashier during transaction and spoke in their language along with a third person where they decide that it was Twenty Five Cents charge for the chopstick helpers, I felt very uncomfortable with the situation because none of the other Suchi places charged for them, so I handed my card again for a total of fifty cents charge then they tell me they have to charge me another fifty cents because it is under $10 limit for the Credit Card use! Hello I just paid you guys over 20 bucks a minute ago!! Please explain to me how can anyone come back to this place when you feel that you have been humiliated as a customer with their services?!! To make this event worst is after getting home I discovered that their chopsticks helpers are too big and did not work what so ever, I will never ever go back to this place again, even if you are in Japan you will definitely be able to get better...

We just ate here, today; it was my second time attending. I ordered the special, Las Vegas Roll and my mother ordered the Chibi soup; the Las Vegas Roll was over cooked and the chicken in the soup was old, along with the egg and other items tasted less than fresh and seemingly spoiled. The waitress assured the dumplings were made same day and made no comment on the poultry. The soup was not eaten and the server misunderstood me, thinking we wanted to take the soup home, still charging us for the uneaten item. The food looks good but does not taste good and the service was poor. Unfortunately I will not be coming here again because there are so many other more amazing places to eat in the area; especially from someone who avidly eats at Japanese restaurants. No thank you to...
