Dive Into Waite & Sea: A Bold New Sushi Bar Experience from Chef Davin Waite

Chef Davin Waite and restaurateur Jessica Waite are taking it back to their roots with Waite & Sea—an intimate, no-holds-barred sushi bar experience hosted inside the original Wrench & Rodent Seabasstropub in Oceanside.

Available Monday and Tuesday nights, this 12+ course tasting menu is as much a journey as it is a meal: personal, experimental, and rebellious in all the right ways.

Limited Seats. Limitless Imagination.

Each night is capped at just 16 seats, giving us a front-row view into Davin’s creative process—where food is a conversation, tradition is honored and challenged, and sustainability is always on the plate. Expect unexpected flavors, bold textures, and a narrative woven through every bite.

Sustainability, Culture, and Full-Send Flavor

This isn’t your average omakase. It’s a deep dive into Davin’s philosophy: celebrating the oceans, respecting the origins, and pushing boundaries with every course. For those who want more than just great food, the optional wine pairing adds another layer of complexity and fun.

See you there!

Seats are limited, and the experience is unforgettable. Ready to Waite & Sea?
