Scoring 98 out of 100 on San Diego County’s health inspection, Riki Sushi at 3930 30th St anchors the North Park sushi scene on the 30th St dining corridor. The restaurant sits next door to Crafted Coupe, where diners continue the evening with handcrafted cocktails after a sushi course. Nigiri, sashimi, and house-original specialty rolls like the Salmon Bomb and Roy’s Special share the menu with udon noodle soups, teriyaki bowls, and full bento box sets. Those looking for a pastry finish can head north on 30th to Donut Factory for fresh doughnuts and coffee. The sushi counter’s most technical work goes into its multi-course nigiri progressions — sequential tastings of seasonal fish that showcase each cut’s texture and fat content across a full omakase-style sitting.
