Elynn LeeOctober 23, 2014Very good quality sushi. Really loved the chawanmushi, too. Came with a bunch of friends, ordered a lot, and were really happy with this. Service was quick and servers were nice!
Miso spup is AMAZING!!! Service is awesome too. Loved the sushi but LOVED the King Crab Roll. It's a glorified Cali roll but so worth the extra to get the king crab.Saving this to my "regulars" list.
Kathy McKinnonDecember 11, 2015Sesame chicken is da bomb! I had the sushi medley, really good!! We should of bought a second plate of sesame chicken, I kept eating my babe's,.it's that good!!
JacKEYJanuary 19, 2017The restaurant looks plain but let it not deceive you. Great sushi and California roll. Try Sushi&Sashimi platter - a wide variety of fish. Served with miso soup and some salad. Highly recommended.
Ricardo Polisel AlvesAugust 2, 2022Very good and fresh ingredients. I brought my two young daughters and they really enjoyed it too. Service was excellent.
Irina LeonidovnaMay 24, 2015Salmon sashimi was good. The rest was o-k. Fresh, not amazing though. 49er and San Francisco roll were ok too. If you in the area- good sushi. But not my best in SF (that would be domo, otoro, puzzle)
Jamie HutchinsAugust 11, 2014Ankimo (monkfish liver), Hamachi collar, Shiro Maguro Toro (albacore tuna belly), Tai red snapper), Oh Toro (fatty bluefin tuna)
Abrar AlsuwainaMay 20, 2023Their sushi is very fresh and light. Place is cozy and suitable for quick sittings. Service is nice. A little pricey tho!
- Elynn LeeSeptember 7, 2015If you can splurge on the Copper River King Salmon, DO IT! It's so amazing and well worth the price. The servers are really nice too!
Cindy lauNovember 13, 2014Get it all. But if you can't do that, get the king crab roll. And try and sit at the sushi bar.
Missy BergenSeptember 3, 2012Be prepared to have a wait time or make a reservation. Miso was the best I ever had and the sushi and sashimi was amazing. MUST for sushi in SanFran.
Juan Ignacio CastagnoSeptember 25, 2016It is very good, but I sat on the bar and noticed there's only one senior itamae, so not everything that is prepared is accomplished with the same precision.- Nate BeattyFebruary 27, 2015The salmon teriyaki combo is a good deal. Lots of very delicious small courses - soup, salad, sushi, salmon, rice.
RaniaFebruary 6, 2020Relatively easy to find spaces for late dinner. Sushi is average but worth trying their cod
Andrey KlenDecember 14, 2014Udon is great. And if you are lucky they won't ask your ID for a glass of wine.
- Bud FlagstadApril 13, 2014Excellent Sushi and service. Went on a Friday night at 8:30pm waited 20 mins for a table without reservations and loved it.
Sasha FreedmanAugust 8, 201549er roll was amazing! So was the white fish sashimi with ponzu. Everything was great and the waitress was wonderful
ZhannaOctober 24, 2017Good 🍣. Salmon sashimi was very fresh. I recommend roll 709 (but without jalapeño, if you don't like very spicy 🌶)
Blake CharvozAugust 10, 2014Miso soup and Tai roll! Excellent service, delicious sake, killer rolls.
- Bud FlagstadApril 14, 2014Back for the 2nd time in one trip! The Sesame Chicken and Kokuryu Sake Flight is the best I have ever had!
if you sit at the bar at lunch, do yourself a favor and odder the sashimi lunch. simple and solid.
Em LópezDecember 1, 2016704 roll is very good! Servers are nice and most people shout "thank you/arigato" when they leave.
Ana QuiñonesJanuary 29, 2015Loved the nigiri! Fresh and delicious. My usual favorites: uni, amaebi, sake, hamachi, all shined.
Sahar AJanuary 18, 2016Can't go wrong with the tiger roll & crunch roll. Also the sesame chicken is really tasty. :)
Tracy ColeSeptember 30, 2013Very busy, but nice friendly service. We had a delicious 3 seafood salad and lots of sushi. The Poke roll was quite delicious.
Good, fresh fish. Tasty and reasonably priced for sushi. Definitely best sushi in lower nob!
Niharika KohliFebruary 20, 2018Spicy tuna and Negihama were both good! Their wasabi was a bit dry. On the whole, seemed reasonable for SF.
Really awesome and attentive service. Cozy, but not cramped. The chef's special is one of my faves.- Simon RojasJanuary 31, 2016Order all of the five specials for spicy group sushi madness. They're really good.
- Simon RojasJanuary 31, 2016All of the signature sushi rolls are really good, and a tad spicy, recommended!
Khaled HijabAugust 9, 2015Best sushi and Sashimi salad in SF! The ambiance and service are both unique.
Billy AndersSeptember 11, 2013Sushi is fresh and delicious. Sanraku roll is very similar to a dragon roll. Just get the dragon.
Lauren RoseAugust 21, 2014Woods and sea.. Amazing! Urchin + salmon roe in an avocado with some delicious sauces.
Emma PintoNovember 8, 2014Everything!! Excellent sushi and good price!! Very friendly service! I just loved it!
Joseph KanginanJune 13, 2019katsu donburi, beef teriyaki, rainbow roll were good. chicken teriyaki & chicken udon were below average. With such expensive prices, we expected to have higher quality of food. Hope they can improve
Marc R?erSeptember 22, 2014Great Japanese restaurant, good sushi and make sure you order one of the desserts
Diana LowJanuary 29, 2014Nice food with friendly staff. Seems a lot of regulars go there. Teriyaki salmon was great!
Abdulelah Al-GosaibiAugust 3, 2017Service was really good. Salmon sashimi was great. Salmon skin Maki not so much.
David ROctober 29, 2018Enormous portions, you literally only need to order the combo to be more than full.
