Our Journey: A San Diego Tradition

For over two decades, Sushi 2 has been a cornerstone of authentic Japanese cuisine in San Diego. Our story is one of tradition, community, and a commitment to excellence that has only grown stronger with time.

Founded Over 20 Years Ago

We first opened our doors more than 20 years ago, bringing authentic sushi craftsmanship to the heart of Downtown San Diego. From day one, our mission has been simple: serve exceptional food with genuine hospitality.

Original Downtown Location

Our original home at 135 Broadway in Downtown San Diego became a beloved destination for residents, office workers, and visitors seeking quality sushi in a welcoming atmosphere.

Relocation to North Park

In recent years, we made the exciting move to the vibrant North Park neighborhood. This relocation allowed us to serve a new community while bringing our established traditions to a fresh, welcoming space.

Unchanging Quality & Service

While our address has changed, our commitment has not. Under owner Kuniko Holmes' continued leadership, we maintain the same dedication to quality ingredients, skilled preparation, and warm service that has defined us for generations.

We invite you to visit our North Park location and experience the same authentic sushi that has delighted San Diego for over 20 years.
