Want to extend your life? Look no further than sushi!

It’s no secret that diet contributes to life expectancy, and sushi is one of the most healthy things you can eat, as fish is lean protein high in omega-3 fatty acids. Plus, the combination of vitamins and minerals that come from sea life, including vitamin D, vitamin B12, zinc and selenium, is almost second to none. Meanwhile, the carbs from the white rice provide energy, fiber and folate. All rolled up into one, sushi just might be the perfect food, especially considering it’s flavorful, fun, nutritious and vastly broad ranging.

Japan, where sushi is a way of life, has one of the longest life expectancies in the world, and nutritionists are in unison in agreeing that it’s largely tied to the citizen’s steady diet of clean raw fish, rice and seaweed.

Further, sushi is known to improve gut and heart health, boost the immune system and help with the body’s natural detoxification process.

Temaki Sushi bar is no exception! We have the finest San Diego Sushi, ad we only use the highest quality ingredients!

Great for weight loss!

Japanese dishes often consist of a range of simply prepared healthy light ingredients. Sushi is no exception—if ordered in its simplest form, which means when it’s not adorned with glazes, sauces, or breading, it is a great choice for a weight loss diet. When there is no added fat, sushi can be a healthy staple in your diet. Make sure you keep track of your macros, but rest assured that you’ll always feel satisfied while eating food that is inherently healthy for you!

Did somebody say antioxidants?

Sushi is a prolific source of antioxidants, which slows down cell damage, prevents permanent oxidative damage to the skin and slows down overall ageing. These antioxidants preserve the cell structure of the skin, help keep cells younger both externally and internally and are integral to anti-aging diets!

Who knew that simple, unfussy food can literally add years to your life!

You know what we say at Temaki Bar Handroll & Sake: “Eat Here … Live Forever.”

About Us

Literally translating to “hand roll,” Temaki San Diego Sushi Bar celebrates the tradition that all perfect hand rolls should be eaten within seconds of the chef passing them across the counter — while the rice is still warm and the fish, fresh and chilled.

In keeping with tradition, Temaki Bar’s hand rolls are prepared counter-side and made-to-order, highlighting the freshest seafood featuring blue crab, yellowtail, salmon, and more.

Temaki will celebrate traditional sushi-making with Chef Jojo Ruiz, local veteran chef and San Diego native at the helm. Ruiz began his career as a sushi chef and is heading back to those roots, with the added bonus of his seafood sourcing and sustainability practices that earned him recognition with the James Beard Foundation as a Smart Catch Leader.
