Sunshine Kitchen

We’ve gone about 3 times now and every time, it’s always a hit! The calamari tempura is made fresh to order, so be prepared for the freshest calamari you’ve probably ever had! The staff is always kind, quick to help && offer their recommendations to new items. We purposely eat in the restaurant because of the vibe, the warm feeling, and enjoying great food. Don’t skip on the Tempura and Karage! Can’t wait to go back…most likely next week again ☺️

Sunshine Kitchen reminds me a lot of Teri Café, just tucked into a strip mall and more mom and pop vibe and the quality here is always solid. They have great lunch and dinner specials, and I keep coming back for the poke bowl because it’s consistently well-made, fresh, and very reasonably priced. This time, my kiddo ordered the karaage and french fries, and we also tried the yaki soba noodles. Everything tasted like it was made with care. If you’re craving a little island or Japanese comfort food without committing to a huge sushi bill, this place is absolutely worth a visit. You'll be able to order a dinner plate usually salad, rice, and your choice of a meat, or you can also get yakisoba, and quite a bit more. If you want a no-frills but yummy Japanese style food spot in Oceanside especially closer to the coast because you're craving Teri café, this is a great option.

Clean delicious food that isn’t over salted like many other asian food places. Wonderful staff who are kind, friendly and respectful. They tried hard to make the atmosphere peaceful but let’s face it, it’s in a strip mall. If this place was on North Pacific it would have a better view and the $9 lunch special would be $26. Thus, this is s value. Highly recommend.

I eat at Sunshine Kitchen a few times per week. A lot of menu options and the food is great!! The staff is very nice and the prices are good. Love this place!!

Price is very reasonable, the menu had a nice combo of Japanese dishes and Sushi. Definitely hit the spot for me!

The sushi here is tasty and fresh, and the location is really nice—close to the ocean. Only downside is you gotta stand in line to order, and they don’t give you a menu ahead of time. So you end up deciding what you want right at the register, which slows things down. Other than that, it’s great. Sushi comes out fast, and the staff is super friendly. Definitely recommend!

The food was excellent! We tried several dishes, including karaage, sushi, katsu curry, and a couple of others I can’t quite remember, and we were happy with everything. It was a pleasant surprise to see katsu curry on the menu. The service was quick, and the staff was very friendly. This is clearly a popular spot—though we arrived before the dinner rush, the seats filled up fast.
