Lumi Locals Only Menu Highlights
The Lumi locals only menu covers both drinks and food, and the prices are impressive for a rooftop sushi spot. Drinks start with $5 Kirin beer, an $8 Toki Highball, $6 Hahn Pinot Noir, $6 Schug Pinot Grigio, and $7 Soto Junmai Ginjo sake. It’s a great menu that pairs perfectly with sushi night.
For food, the Lumi locals only menu keeps things fun and shareable. We ordered shishito peppers and edamame for $5 each, which are perfect starters. They also have a rock shrimp tempura for $9 that the table next to us loved. The wagyu meatball skewer was rich and flavorful at $10, and I plan to get the eggplant skewer for $6 next time.
Sushi Rolls We Tried at Lumi Locals Only
Sushi is where the Lumi locals only deal really shines. Rolls start as low as $5, including the California roll and avocado cucumber roll. The spicy tuna and spicy salmon rolls are just $6.
For something more elevated, the seabass serrano roll and charred yellowtail roll are $9 each and absolutely worth ordering. Getting rolls like these at this price, plus 20 percent off the full dinner menu, is rare for downtown San Diego.
Why Lumi Locals Only Is Worth It
Between the secret menu pricing, the dinner menu discount, craft cocktails, and rooftop vibes, Lumi locals only makes Mondays feel special again. It’s a locals-only perk that actually feels like a reward.
If you’re a San Diegan, Lumi locals only should be on your Monday night rotation. Just bring your ID, come hungry, and enjoy one of the best sushi deals downtown. It is available from 5:30 p.m. until closing.
