Nice place with Vegan options

I was just hungry for something light. This is my third stop on the S.D. Vegan food tour. I had the House Brussel Sprouts and Vegan Karaage Chicken. The Brussel sprouts were served on top of a crispy noodles which was quite good. The presentation of the chicken wasn't good but it was tasty. Service was fast and the server was friendly.

Several Vegan Options!

I give the Sushi Deli 2 five stars! Although this is not a fully vegan restaurant, they do have very good vegan options! & does not disappoint at any visit, even better at happy hour.

A birthday wish come true!

Sushi2 far exceeded my expectations! From the moment I called to the day I finished my leftovers I would rate my experience 5 stars. I called Sushi2 @ 11:30a to place my order & was referred to Amelia in catering. What a delight! I told her that it was my birthday & wanted to order a Vegan Sushi Platter (among other things) for 2:30p pick-up. She said normally catering orders require a 24hr notice but she would make it work!

I picked up my order (Vegan Sushi Platter, The Jolly Green Giant Roll, Teriyaki Tofu, House Brussel Sprouts, Hawaiian Tofu Wings) and was impressed with the speed & courtesy of service. They even included a FREE BIRTHDAY order of Mochi!

The sushi was delicious!! The colors, textures & flavors amazed even our omni friends. The combinations captivated our tastebuds! We can't wait order again and continue our sushi adventure!

Pros: high quality food, very friendly staff , affordable

Cons: Offers meat/fish

Yummy sushi

Sushi 2 is so good that we got delivery from there 2 nights in a row. We have also been there in person and that was amazing too! I live sushi 2 because there is not a reliance on fake meat. I don’t enjoy meat substitutes so I get bummed out when the vegan options are too meat like. Sushi 2 has many vegan options so it seems like everyone can find something to their taste. Our favorite roll is the vegan Shauna roll. We also love the vegan ramen and the fried tofu appetizer.

Pros: Lots of choices, Not reliant on fake meat , Sushi, ramen, & more

Cons: Can be very busy

Loved it!

Plenty of vegan options clearly labeled. Very affordable too! For all that we ordered it wasn’t that expensive. None of the rolls we ordered were over $10. Offers outside seating currently during the pandemic. The Mango Punch Roll was delicious! I would not hesitate to return when I’m Diego.

Pros: Vegan options clearly labeled , Many vegan options

Vegan icon on menu

Plenty of vegan options. Easy to find options with the vegan icon on the general menu and a box featuring all of the vegan rolls on the sushi page. Rolls and bento box are great! Non-vegan friends happy with their meals, too.
The place is very busy, so the lunch service was a bit slow. Overall, very happy.
It's right next to Spreckels Theatre.

Pros: Vegan options well marked, Friendly service, Non-vegan friends liked it, too

Cons: Slow mid-week lunch service

Great selection!

They have many vegan menu items (all labeled), including appetizers. They also have a vegan sushi list, which has 10-12 rolls. I had dumplings and two rolls, all delish! I went with three omnivores and they all loved it. Highly recommend.

Pros: Labels vegan menu options , Knowledgeable staff, Great vegan selection

It was ok

Great location and beautiful interior design. I ordered the tofu curry and didn't like it very much (I was expecting a Thai curry flavor haha) but they allowed me to change my order to the veggie roll, which was ok. Overall, a great place to come after a long day at Comic Con! 😄

Pretty good vegan sushi, not so great service.

I went with my family to celebrate finishing exams and getting my first apartment. The music is terribly loud so you have to talk really loud to hear people around you. When I went with my boyfriend it was fine, but when I brought my parents, our waiter ignored us and refused to refill our waters. We sat there for an hour after ordering and walked out because our food never came. I think the waiter realized he forgot to put the order in and instead of letting us know we may have to wait he just avoided us at all costs. I don’t think I will be going back.

Pros: Lots of vegan options

Cons: Loud music, Slow service

Amazing!

I loved this place before I was vegan, but honestly I love it even more now! $30 all you can eat vegan sushi Sat-Sun 12-4! I had the Inari B, Tofu Roll and Vegan Crunchy Roll. The vegan crunchy roll is a must, I didnt care for the tofu roll and the Inari was amazing. I also has the Buddha Rolls for an appetizer and they were great! The cilantro sauce was wonderful!

Pros: Over 15 vegan rolls, $30 all you can eat or $7.00 8 piece rolls, Vegan Crunchy Roll

Cons: Miso soup is not Vegan

Great vegan options

Clearly labeled and reasonably priced vegan options. They have an AYCE vegan option on the weekend, 12-4p. Enough options to let you feel satisfied.

Pros: Vegan label on menu, Rolls from $5-$9

Creative Vegan Sushi

Sushi 2's Vegetable Roll ($6.75) is a solid vegan offering. Eight slices stuffed with avocado, asparagus, lettuce, and gobo then finished with soy paper and lemon juice that satisfy my sushi craving. But what I love most about this restaurant are the creative rolls. My favorite is the Mango Punch ($7.25). Filled with sweet potato tempura, seaweed salad, cucumber, and avocado then topped with inari, mango sauce, and spicy sauce. Teetering on the verge of being too sweet, the roll is pulled back by the buttery avocado and the briny seaweed salad.

I would like to sincerely thank Sushi 2 for having clearly marked vegan items. Also, as you may have noticed, this location has dropped the "Deli" portion of the name. This location was purchased 5 years ago by long time employee Kuniko Holmes and appears to still be emotionally tied to the Deli group, but now functions as a completely independent--and much more vegan friendly--business.

Pros: Clearly marked vegan options

Cons: Priced higher then related Sushi Deli locations
