This Potrero Hill sushi bar is a great value . The quality of the fish is quite good and the prices are very reasonable. Don't miss the Salmon Nigiri or 49er and read about it on WinstonWanders below! Read more

Carmen Sutter

Omakase has fantastic variety with large pieces of fresh sashimi & nigiri . Get the live scallops for sure. Starter of oyster , uni, quail egg & tobiko was amazing.

Alice M

Make sure you get something from the specials menu! The island poke was fresh & light & delicious. The lunch bento boxes are a good deal , more than enough to fill you up.

Kian Lavi

Some of the best hand rolls you’ll ever have. Get the one with shiso leaf

Chris H.

Literally every roll I've tried is delicious. What a hidden gem on Potrero Hill !

Connie Chiu

Chef 's special oysters and the sashimi assortment are to die for. Butterfish , amberjack, blue fin tuna , salmon , hamachi , albacore , just all melt in your mouth. I can't even.

Thomas Colton

Best for a quick and/or quiet lunch in Potrero. Fun options like scallop burgers and cheaper lunch specials . A little pricey but if you can swing it, do it!

Tazza D'Amore Cafe

1) Ask to sit in Mai's section - she is the lead and best server ever. 2) Get the Rainbow Roll , Crazy Monkey, and Veggie Swamp Roll. 3) The Chicken Saba Noodle Soup is to die for.

Fresh seafood from Tsukiji Market like aji, toro , and hotate.

Yenie

Live Uni, blue shrimp and amaebi nigiris are amazing!! Love aji tataki and scallop mini burgers . Chefs special oysters are great too.

Liz N.

The fish is extremely fresh. Try the BF toro , chefs oysters (oysters , uni, quail egg , ikura , tibiko & ponzu ) & the aji tataki. Yum!!! Plenty of parking to;)

Romeo & Juliet Roll, tasty udon broth, & coffee flavored mochi . No disappointments here. Fresh sushi indeed!

Paulina

The lunch bento box is decently priced. $10.50 for two items or $12.50 for three plus soup and salad .

Sherene Arjani

Anything on their specials board is worth a try. We loved the fresh walu and the Romeo and Juliet roll.

Ryan Tamares

Good service for our visit 1/18/19. Fresh fish , great flavors!

An Sheng

Maybe we didn't order the right things.. but our dishes didn't have much flavour. The fish was decently fresh. We got the uni shooter , nemo, cucumber sashimi roll, chirashi . All were underwhelming ????

Not to be an asshole but if you think this is good sushi ... you have no idea what good sushi tastes like. Basic white people sushi roll spot. Mediocre service. Mediocre fish quality.

Joseph Thibault

Live special. Nuff said.

Sashimi was so good!
