The Sushi Bus - Oceanside

Decent sushi for a truck. There's a guy making the sushi and the set up is pretty legit. They were set up at Ironfist. Don't expect the finest sushi you'll ever have, it's good for what it is. A sushi van. We ordered the 2 rolls, forgot the name to it but one was good, the other not so much. One of the rolls they put this sweet raspberry sauce on it... Didn't go well with fish, seems like they were trying to be too creative... In the end it didn't make sense... I appreciated that they work hard and actually have a sushi bar station. Maybe lay off the raspberry sauce and stick with something less sweet.

Food truck that was parked outside Ballast point brewery, and my traveling companion and I settled down for some beer tasting and a side of sushi. We ordered vegetable and California roll and both were made before our eyes. As we were eating one of the employees brought over three of their sauces to try with our Sushi. The garlic daikon sauce was our favorite but the mango habenero and sweet chili were not far behind in taste although a bit too spicey for our pallette. Each roll was 5 bucks and accompanied our tasting nicely.

Ahhh Sushi Bus. You and Craft Breweries go together like Milk and Cookies.... Kanye and hatred... ...Sushi and Beer? This isnt your FoodNetwork five star sushi experience, I will give you that. But when I walk into a brewery and see the guys setting up the sushi counter there usually in the back by the brewing equipment, I breath a little sigh of relief as I know...it will all be OK from here on out. The sushi is a bit more rock and roll than traditional. You'll find some funky rolls, some fried items... but you can always depend on them for some great specials like fresh octopus or fantastic eel. My go to is usually the chronic roll or a simple eel hand roll... Hmmm,,,I think Ill go find em and get me some sushi goodness right.......now.

I was excited to finally try Sushi Bus at Coronado Brewing Company since I've heard good things about them. I like how their menu is straight forward and ranges from simple hand rolls to beer battered fried rolls. I opted for the San Diegan (inside: spicy tuna and cucumber, outside: tuna, avocado, garlic daikon and marinated red onion) for $10 and it was more than enough with a refreshing pint of beer. I really liked how everything was clean, fresh, and tasty....words typically not associated with the combination of sushi and food trucks. Also, this may come off as random but it was really nice that they used wasabi that actually had a kick! Perfect for washing it down with a cold beer!

I was so excited for Sushi Bus. This was a business that I 've been wanting to follow and every time that I had the chance to head to find them, I was always busy and never had the chance to make a simple pit stop. Now please, keep in mind, as you continue to read this review, this review comes from someone who 's parents owned a sushi restaurant for 14 years and also I 've been in the customer service business for more than 8 years now. Finally, last night, I walked into Booze Brothers and I see people carrying sushi, and I thought to myself.. SUSHI! SUSHI! OMG, SUSHI BUS IS HERE!!! I went outside to Booze Brothers patio area and walked up with my friends. When approaching, I was greeted with not so smiling faces and studied their menu. After taking a look at what they had, I ordered the San Diegian Roll, and waited about 10 minutes before getting my roll. I wish there was a little more sanitation when it came to making my roll because they were just out in the open and no gloves or anything. At least when I 'm at a sushi restaurant, I can always see people washing their hands and I know it 's clean. The sushi was just ok to me. Nothing really stood out, nothing really wowed me. There was tuna inside a roll with some pickled onions, tuna, and avocado on top. Again, it was just a roll. I wish with Sushi Bus, there was more of a cool aspect too it so that I could remember it. I know it 's a traveling food truck, but I just wish there was more.
