Local restaurants (and neighbors) Saiko Sushi and Sapori Italian Restaurant are expanding.
First off, Saiko Sushi is opening up their second location at 2884 University Ave in North Park. They have had wonderful success at their 116 Orange Avenue location and it was time to expand over the bridge.
From their website:
Saiko Sake & Sushi Bar is a recent addition to North Park’s eclectic dining scene. Our space is beautiful and contemporary with exposed ceilings, local artwork and a striking mural. Enjoy sunsets and all of the action on University Avenue from our outdoor patio. In North Park we are very serious about sake, and the owners are currently the only two Certified Sake Professionals in San Diego. We select only premium sakes from regional breweries in Japan to complement our progressive Japanese menu of appetizers and sushi. Our wild caught local fish is FRESH and hand-picked daily by the Chef.

In addition to Saiko’s expansion, their next door neighbor, Sapori Italian Restaurant at 120 Orange Avenue, has also expanded their foodie offerings over the bridge with a new restaurant called Pizza E Birra. It’s located at 3625 India Street. Congrats to locals Laura and Raffaele Petrazzuolo.
