"not the most authentic sushi restaurant, but its limited menu sushi quality, presentation and service is definitely above average for the opposite, which says a lot for someone who is sharp wary the bar / food disotomy prevalent downtown. most often visited by natives who have some other possibilities to dinate in the evening, it serves as a niche with a quite pleasant, unique atmosphere and location due to the adjacent balboa park. I give four stars, because as so many city center facilities, mysteries may appear on their bill if they are not careful. anyway. hive is a great place worth visiting with friends or solo as long as they do not expect a real Japanese sushi experience (at a much higher cost)."
