I could easily spend all my money here, and it would be worth it. Gorilla Eats is AMAZING every time! The tiger roll is my fave , but every item I’ve ordered has been great. Definitely a must try!

I had the California roll, dragon roll, and Tina Nigiri. And as a sushi lover I can say this place is hands the down BEST sushi I’ve ever had, whether you are vegan or non vegan, you will enjoy!!! I am blown away at the flavor, and quality!! Great service also!!! This will definitely be my go-to sushi spot while I’m down in San Diego!! 100/10!!!! I’m ready to try what more off their menu!

This a order and pick up type of place, which is perfect for a movie date and staying home and eating sushi. This is the most delicious vegan sushi in San Diego! Everyone must try! Even non-vegans will love it! Its a little bit high in price but the quality is so worth it!

This is the best vegan sushi in San Diego! Good sized rolls and reasonable prices. Consistently delicious as well, I’ve never been disappointed! The Eureka! roll is my favorite and always fried to crispy perfection. Definitely give this place a chance!

We got this delivered. It was so delicious! Our favorite was the tiger roll. The textures were on point and it did not taste fishy. We didn't mind paying a small amount extra for ginger, wasabi, and soy sauce. It's less wasteful to only get what you want! Thanks for having such a wide variety of options and an all vegan menu!

My husband and I almost didn’t order here once we got there because we didn’t realize it was take-out only, but I am so glad we did. This sushi is amazing, and the nigiri was so realistic I got nervous for a second that it was real. We got the salmon nigiri, umami roll, Philadelphia roll, and the Panama roll and they were all amazing but the Panama and the Philadelphia were my favorites. Ordering was easy on the touch screens outside, and our order only took about 15-20 minutes to be ready. They send you a link to unlock a locker at the front of the store to pick it up which was super easy. I will definitely be coming back!! So good if you’re eating vegan, just want to try plant-based sushi, or as an option for anyone who is pregnant and having a sushi craving!

I was stressed out ordering because I was afraid I wouldn’t get the best possible thing (for my own taste), so obviously I over-ordered. To be fair I’m used to eating avocado rolls and I can eat a lot of those. The menu was impressive and I think if I could do it again I would stick to simpler rolls. I love a mock tuna. But less ingredients is my own preference. It was really great to see such a creative and exciting vegan sushi menu. For my review, atmosphere is hard to gauge because this is a to go only, pick up from a locker kitchen. There’s not really an atmosphere to be had but there is novelty in the experience. I recommended reviewing the menu ahead of time so you don’t experience the same fomo I did while ordering at the kiosk!
