Editorial Review: (View User Reviews)

Café Japengo’s executive sushi chef Jerry Warner was recently named "Sushi Master" at the statewide Sushi Masters competition. Among his honors were Best of Show, and first prize in the Governor's Roll category, in which chefs could only use California native ingredients. Try his winning "Terminator" roll (get it?) a creative blend of scallops, tuna, crab, and quail eggs, and other incomparable creations at his impossibly hip restaurant. Although the dishes are obviously to-die-for, it’s the chic, club-like atmosphere that draws many of San Diego and La Jolla’s most attractive and eligible. And it’s this combination of factors that has caused Japengo to win the prize for top sushi bar by San Diego Magazine for seven consecutive years.

I absolutely loved this restaurant! They have a great sushi menu...if you're a sushi fan, I especially recommend the Funky Roll and the Tootsie Roll! Aside from sushi, the BBQ Salmon is to die for!
Conclusion

 Perfect restaurant for its innovative cuisine!

The atmosphere here is great, the sushi is fantastic. It's a good place to stop by and just have a drink or have a meal, and as such, it's really good fr those times you are unsure about how long your meeting with a client may last. The staff is great at taking care of you, yet staying out of the way as well.
Conclusion

 If you want to impress, go to Cafe Japengo.

Cool, hip, and trendy atmosphere. I love it here. If you're searching for japanese food in La Jolla, Cafe Japengo is the place to go. It's a bit pricey but worth it for the well-sized portions. The hawaiian roll is my favorite and highly recommended if you want to try something new.
