ICHIBAN PACIFIC BEACH located at 1441 GARNET AVE, SAN DIEGO, CA 92109
Inspection Date: 2026-04-17 | Status: Ordered Closed
Ichiban Pacific Beach is a long-running Japanese spot on Garnet Avenue, right in the heart of PB’s main drag. It’s the kind of casual, no-frills sushi joint locals duck into after the beach: simple booths, quick service, and a menu that leans on familiar favorites rather than flashy trends. Regulars come for straightforward rolls, nigiri, and comforting staples like teriyaki and tempura at approachable prices.
With its convenient location near bars and shops, Ichiban often serves as a pre-night-out sushi stop or an easy weeknight dinner option. While it doesn’t chase the spotlight, it has the feel of a neighborhood standby that’s been quietly serving Pacific Beach residents and surfers for years.
San Diego County health inspectors have ordered ICHIBAN PACIFIC BEACH to temporarily cease operations following a recent inspection. The closure stems from violations including vermin. The restaurant, located at 1441 GARNET AVE, SAN DIEGO, CA 92109, will remain closed until all health code violations are addressed and the facility passes a follow-up inspection.
