" If you're looking for a top-notch sushi experience, Lumi is definitely the place to go. The environment was vibrant and trendy, and the food creativity blew my mind. Loved their fusion approach! Tried several dishes, but the pork belly kabob was a standout for me. Service was quite attentive; I felt well taken care of throughout our dinner. Can't wait to visit again! " (*Curated Review*)

" Lumi is fantastic! The blend of Japanese and Peruvian flavors is unlike anywhere else. We tried the beef skewers and the sashimi, and both were delectable! Spectacular views from the rooftop; the ambiance paired wonderfully with our meal. The service was gracious and attentive. Can't wait to go back again for dinner! " (*Curated Review*)

" Just returned from a fantastic dinner at Lumi! The rooftop view is breathtaking, and the food was absolutely to die for. I loved the sushi pizza and the fresh ceviche. Every bite made me feel like I was in Japan but dining with a Peruvian twist. Highly recommended for anyone looking for a unique dining experience in San Diego! " (*Curated Review*)

" A perfect spot for brunch! The mimosas were delicious. I had a couple of sushi rolls, and they were good but not spectacular. The atmosphere was buzzing, but it could get a bit loud. I enjoyed my time there, but I might try to go for dinner next time to experience the different menu options. " (*Curated Review*)

" While I had a pleasant time at Lumi, I think it wasn’t quite the expected culinary adventure I hoped for. The atmosphere is lively and the staff attentive, but I found the food to be average. Nothing was particularly bad, but I had better sushi experiences elsewhere. However, I appreciate the effort and creativity in some of the dishes. " (*Curated Review*)

" I visited Lumi based on several recommendations, and while I had high expectations, I found the dishes to be underwhelming at times. The service was quick but impersonal, and while I enjoyed the atmosphere, the food didn't wow me as much as I thought it would. I’ll consider giving it another chance in the future. " (*Curated Review*)

" I had a good evening at Lumi despite a few hiccups. The food was flavorful, especially the sushi updates, but some rolls were a bit fishy in taste. The rooftop was lively, and the view was beautiful, but the music was perhaps a bit too much for my taste. Overall, I had fun and would consider returning but with different food choices. " (*Curated Review*)
