Sad to see this place go down hill so much. The last time I gave this place a chance the sushi was warm and the portions were smaller than before. I used to love this hole in the wall but tonight really turned me off.As I'm driving away it's 8pm on the dot and their business hours-including the one on the door- states they close at 9. We drove 15 minutes out to eat a quick dinner here. The cashier told us they are only accepting take out orders.. even though right before we walked in another couple took a seat at a table. Please update your hours if you are not going to accommodate customers within reasonable seating time. Won't be returning.

I used to love this little sushi restaurant. But I haven't visited in a few years and last night we met up with family here for my birthday dinner. Narumi Sushi has always been a small restaurant, but recently they have changed. The dining area is almost non-existent now. Zero wait staff and you must go to the register to place your order. Even when dining in, everything was served in plastic, cardboard and styrofoam. Plastic utensils, plastic water cups, etc...It was a very underwhelming and cheap-feeling experience. I would compare it to a very small/somewhat grungy taco shop or burger place.It seems like they are almost solely catering towards takeout. If you are dining in you will be waiting in line with people picking up to-go and Uber Eats/Door Dash delivery drivers.The inside of the restaurant also smelt like fish and not fresh fish, which is telling in itself. Seafood/sushi restaurant are NOT supposed to stench. Soy sauce is only in little foil packets like McDonalds ketchup. Sushi rolls are mostly rice and panko flakes and all 3 of our different rolls tasted almost the same, even though they had different ingredients.A few years ago the food was pretty good. The service was also good. But now every aspect of this restaurant is mediocre at best. Very sad :-(

Food was OK not really a fan. Eddie tasted like that it was frozen. The cracked chicken stuff was amazing. Get that 10 out of 10. Everything else was basically a five..

Great affordable take-out sushi spot in La Mesa. Although they do have a couple of booths and three or four chairs with a sushi bar, they don't do table service. I personally don't mind that as we usually get it to-go anyway. What keeps us coming back is how good and affordable the prices are. Whenever I'm in the area, I make it an effort to get my sushi fix, and it always hits.

A great affordable option for sushi in La Mesa, but be prepared to wait or do takeout as the place is small. Only two tables and a couple of seats by the window are available to dine in, so we saw many customers doing takeout. The utensils and plates are also all takeout making Narumi a casual spot. Spicy Yellowtail Handroll (4/5): Convenient if you don't want to commit to a roll. The yellowtail they use was really fresh here. The spice comes from a spicy mayo so it wasn't spicy at all though.Maki Maki (3.5/5): Salmon and yellowtail are the main fish in this roll. Toppings were loaded with freshly chopped jalapeno and sesame seed. I t was a fresh tasting roll but more heavy from the cream cheese.Truck Stop Roll (5/5): Similar to the maki maki, this also contains salmon inside and yellowtail on top. I liked this one more only because the ponzu, chili oil and green onions were more cohesive toppings. Protein Rainbow Roll (5/5): Very vibrant and lots of fish and toppings in this one! It's a no rice roll so you are getting all the good stuff, shrimp, tuna, crab, salmon, yellowtail, and albacore are all included. Really delicious and does provide all the protein!Overall, I enjoyed the rolls at Narumi and found it to be very satisfying. They do differ from a lot of casual sushi restaurants in San Diego in that their rolls are higher quality and not all with filler imitation krab. They offer more with handrolls, cooked entrees, nigiris, lunch specials, bentos, and lots more.

Had 2 orders of Nabeyaki Udon to-go but our orders were missing the shrimp tempura, which we noticed after arriving at home. Aside from the missing shrimp, the flavor was pretty nice. I usually get ramen or soba noodle soups, but the udon was a good texture. For takeaway, the soup came put together already & not separated, which I didn't mind. We got flakes on the side.For $11, it's a pretty good meal for a 20min waitIt's quite small inside, 2 tables & about 8 bar top seats.

Very disappointed. This has been a reliable sushi joint for a while. Tonight we ordered $85 of sushi via grub hub. We were then informed that two items weren't available and since that was most of the order we told them to cancel the order. They wouldn't do that. They sent us to the restaurant who sent us to the processing agent. Nobody was helpful or made any effort to solve our problem. We still have no idea if or what we will receive or what we will end up paying. I will never order from these clowns again. That the restaurant didn't try to fix the problem is the most egregious fact. We reached to the processor, the delivery service and the restaurant and nobody was willing to help a regular customer with a problem caused by the restaurant.

Definitely not the caliber it once was. Sushi is not nearly as fresh and the rolls aren't rolled consistently - often times very uneven and oddly shaped. We only do take out and do not eat in. I wanted to give a 3 star rating, but giving them a few more chances before that kind of change in rating. I'm rooting for this great shop!
