Mario MoyaMarch 23, 2018There is this box on the menu that gives you access to many things at a reasonable price, considering most sushi places are expensive to eat. Besides they have a green tea cheesecake that is magic!
Sugar Society SFDecember 15, 2014We splurged a little on the lobster filet mignon roll and it was definitely worth it. Has definitely set the standard for specialty rolls. Well worth every penny!
The fiery bincyo is a lovely, lovely starter. The signature rolls are absolutely delicious too - not traditional, but really interesting fusion stuff. Delicious. Strong recommend.
Want a filling veggie meal for lunch? Try the veggie bento box called Garden of Eden. So many little things to eat and all so yummy.
Ben WalkerSeptember 19, 2013I never leave tips but this place is incredible! The sashimi quality is better than I've ever tasted. The presentation is original and the desserts will make you wish you hadn't eaten as much.
Chad BDecember 11, 2012Choose from a fabulous array and very inventive sushi selections. Some of which are pretty much to die for. Pic below is called Sake Garden.
The Daily SipFebruary 2, 2011In addition to an array of creative rolls and small dishes (we liked the super dynamite roll and the buna beni), be sure to stop in on Monday or Tuesday to enjoy 50% off their wine and sake list
Where do I start? Get the Pyramid of Tartare, the Fiery Bincyo, the King Raffi roll, and the Avocado Top Roll. All so amazing!
Caroline JackMay 24, 2015Hamachi nigiri, seaweed salad are great but the rolls are underwhelming. Killer tunes & sweet vibe but more a place to be seen then to experience amazing food
Sarah RajMarch 21, 2014Definitely worth the money! The toshi kochi,spicy tuna and the berry kraut are worth trying!!
Camilla CalhounApril 8, 2014Yeah this place is really good. Fresh and fun scene. Low key. The avocado roll was a fav. Get the pyramid as an app!
Brian StraussDecember 31, 2014Great fish. A lounge feel with anime films playing on the walls. The kitchen dishes also shine along side the sushi bar.
Bohdan HnatkovskyyJune 5, 2015Very fancy place with delicious sushi. They serve a lot of warm sushi dishes, try one with spicy tuna it's fantastic😋
Ryszard SzopaJune 26, 2015Incredible sashimi. It's been since I've been a bit afraid of my food (shrimp heads), but it's was worth it. Amazing.- Awad SayeedJanuary 18, 2015You pretty much cannot go wrong with anything on this menu. Tried a little bit of everything and loved it all.
Shaheen LatifNovember 24, 2010Was there last week and had their Giants Roll--spicy tuna, cream cheese, topped with seared Salmon, and some other delicious stuff I can't remember. Anyway it was perfect and satisfying. ALSO--all th
Rebecca GobersteinMarch 18, 2012The name says it all. Japanese anime porn on the TV displays helps spice up the dining experience, in case you're too scared to order the funkier rolls.- The Basil Gimlet is good and goes well with sushi. Also, the dragon roll is great.
Rupert RApril 22, 2014One of the best sushi places in SF and been to a lot! Vibes, amazing food, great bar!
GO GIANTS! They play every sports game on the flat screens & always has awesome specials! Great place to enjoy GIANTS, A'S or SHARKS!! Tempura goes amazingly w/ Beer!
PiotrDecember 5, 2014If you're here for the first time - ask for specials and recommendations. It's sushi heaven.
Cédric LopezSeptember 9, 2014amazing and qualitative sushis! Just ask the staff for suggestions they're really helpful.
Jennifer HortonJune 5, 2013Hands down order the To Die For Roll and the Pyramid tartar as an appetizer - unbelievable!
Vivian WangAugust 13, 2015Not the most authentic but super fun! Get the volcano appetizer and sake cocktails :)
GeoffMay 13, 2013This place is pretty awesome. The rolls are great. And you must try the pyramid of tartar.
Rob GainerSeptember 30, 2013The Punch and the Tartare Pyramid to start...save room for the Chocoholic
Alice FerrisFebruary 12, 2013Try the Sashimi Combination - Tuna, mackerel, yellowtail, salmon, even ama ebi. Yum.
Trevor CortezAugust 2, 2013Start with the garlic edamame and check the board for which nigiri is fresh.- Shaheen LatifNovember 24, 2010All the deserts are amazing, but the best way to end your meal is with the green tea cheesecake and green tea ice cream. SooOOooo gooood!
Two must haves!! The Pyramid Tartar and the To Die For. Can't go wrong.
JamieFebruary 29, 2012eh. i'd say the ambiance is more of a draw here than the food. anime, dj's, happy hour specials. the place is always pretty packed though - so at least you know the fish is relatively fresh...
Great vibe! DJ on the wkds and Mangas on screen. The sushi, especially the roles, is actually pretty good!
Cheryl ❤️ MarquezAugust 10, 2012Try the Blazing Salmon, Volcano Shrimp Toast, Popcorn Prawns, King Raffi
Chris H.December 24, 2016Highly overrated and overpriced. Check out Live Sushi over on Potrero Hill for a much better Sushi dinner.
