" I had high expectations given the reviews, but unfortunately, the experience fell short. The food was mediocre, and I expected more flavor from a sushi restaurant. The ambiance was somewhat noisy, making it hard to have a conversation. The staff was friendly, but I don’t think I would revisit. " (*Curated Review*)

" I keep hearing about Shino and finally went with friends. The sushi selection was impressive, but I found the rolls a tad more on the creative and fusion side than traditional. I did enjoy the unique flavors but left craving classic nigiri instead. Service was quick, and the place was buzzing with activity. I would recommend it for those open to trying new combinations rather than strict traditionalists. " (*Curated Review*)

" This sushi restaurant is definitely one of my go-to places! The quality of the fish is fantastic, and I love trying out their daily specials. I was blown away by the freshness and the taste of everything we ordered—especially the Bluefin tuna! The staff is always friendly and accommodating. Highly recommend making reservations. " (*Curated Review*)

" I recently visited Shino Sushi + Kappo, and I was very impressed! The sushi chef was super knowledgeable, explaining exactly what we were eating and the best way to enjoy it. The traditional nigiri was sublime, and the rolls were creative and flavorful. An excellent experience overall, with a cozy ambiance that makes you feel at ease! " (*Curated Review*)

" If you're looking for authentic sushi in San Diego, look no further! Shino Sushi + Kappo had some of the freshest fish I've ever tasted. The presentation was impeccable, each roll was a work of art, and you could tell the ingredients were high quality. The atmosphere was welcoming, and I felt right at home. Highly recommend the Fatty Toro and the Kitchen Sink roll! " (*Curated Review*)

" While I enjoyed the sushi at Shino, there were a few misses during our visit. Some rolls felt a bit flavorless compared to what I was expecting. The ambiance was lively, but the constant noise from the bar made it hard to enjoy a quiet dinner. I’ll likely give it another go, hoping for better luck next time. " (*Curated Review*)

" Had an enjoyable dinner at Shino. The atmosphere has a nice low-key vibe which makes for a pleasant dining experience. I particularly enjoyed their unique rolls and the sake, though I felt the overall portions were a bit smaller than expected. Still worth a visit if you're in the area! " (*Curated Review*)
