Tokyo Sushi Loha
A sushi spot near SDSU in Rolando that Roger remembered fondly from a 2006 visit for good sashimi and sushi, friendly and attentive service, fair prices, and generous portions, despite a noisy, crowded dining room.

“the sashimi/sushi here is bombizzle”
Based on a single 2006 visit, recalled good-quality sashimi and sushi with a bit of a wait; the restaurant near SDSU gets crowded and noisy with a party vibe. Prices on rolls and sashimi bowls were fair with generous portions, and staff were friendly and welcoming.
