Eiji

Great service, great food! Don't forget to try the oboro tofu . Also, best ichigo-daifuku (strawberry mochi ) outside of Japan! Order one when you get there because they sell out fast!

One of our favorite Japanese restaurants in the city . Sounds weird but they have great homemade tofu . Sushi is also creative and well-executed. Takes rezzies (rare for a sushi place around here)

This place is a real hidden gem - it's pleasantly low key with really high quality food. Strawberry Mochi and the tofu are highlights. They also open for lunch with a tasty and filling $15 lunch menu .

Oboro tofu -- hot, custardy homemade tofu eaten with condiments -- is a standout dish at this tiny, soothing Japanese restaurant . Look to the specials for seasonal sushi and cooked fish offerings. Read more

Favorite sushi spot in SF. Authentic is the first word that comes to mind. Oboro tofu , fresh sushi , and strawberry mochi are the musts.

Have been coming here for 10 years. Consistently phenomenal. The shad, the miso black cod , the chirashi and Mochi strawberries are my favorite. Oh and of course, the tofu .

The oboro tofu is made right when you order-! If the miso black cod or sardine sashimi is on the specials board--ORDER them. You won't regret it. Request mochi at the beginning because they run out.

Consistently great sushi and tofu . Their strawberry mochi is out of this world. Super cozy spot with limited seating . Get here early or make a reservation .

The oboro tofu , warm tofu that hasn't quite set yet, is quite an experience. Do get it!

Get the strawberry mochi . It’s so good they only limit you to one order.

Tiny authentic spot with delicious fish and extensive sake list. Definitely order your meal from the 'Specials' board for the best choices, you won't regret it. And call ahead to make reservations

They have sushi in here which is a good thing because they almost have everything that I like about Japanese cuisine right on the bat. Great place to take someone for a date.

They weren't kidding about they Oboro tofu , it's absolutely delicious. Make sure to put a little Tamari sauce (pure soy sauce ) in there.

Food blogger Sean Timberlake says, “The oboro tofu at Eiji in the Castro, is made on the spot in the restaurant . The texture is light and fluffy, exactly like eating fog, but it’s warming and soothing

Great place for amazing food!! I have to say that we were so satisfied with the service and the food in here. The taste is really unique and we had a great time.

"The food being served here is so tempting to see. I love the food presentation. Also the interiors and the furniture are exquisite. Good job! "

At $15, the sushi lunch set is a steal. Non-fussy, traditional nigiri made as it should

Such fresh fish and fantastic tofu . Get Ankake tofu and any sashimi you like. Finish off with strawberry mochi . This place is a true gem!

Amazing Gyoza and sushi . Intimate space with great service.

Very good sushi . The service, kelp salad , and desserts were even better. Need to try the fresh tofu .

My favorite Japanese restaurant in the Mission-Castro area. Known for their tofu but also have some of the freshest ???? in town

Outstanding tofu . Solid options for vegetarians and great spicy tuna to boot.

The ???? mochi is the best! Make sure you get one after your meal. The ???? mochi is okay.

Wow, that's some amazing Japanese - from the tea to the super fresh sashimi and house made tofu , everything was special.

Tofu ! And great sashimi and sushi . Little restaurant like in Japan

I'm not a fan of sushi , yet I loved every single dish in this place. With about $45 per person you can get a decent dinner .

Fantastic tofu , but also some great sushi . Go for the daily recommendations in the blackboard. We had top notch Ankimo , Sanma, Hirame, and a great eggplant dish . All Japanese staff btw.

Get the homemade desserts - strawberry Mochi was my favorite. Order it ahead of time with your reservation !

The sushi is great and the roasted salmon is divine. Fresh uni too! Very authentic .

Best strawberry mochi here for desert but need to reserve ahead because it is a small restaurant .

Home style Japanese with a nice mix of cooked dishes and sushi . The toro ribs were super tender.

The great homemade tofu made in a clay pot right there is wonderful, a whole new experience. And the black cod and eggplant are close seconds.

authentic Japanese restaurant , I love the salmon skin roll and their sashimi . come earlier if you want the strawberry mochi , they always run out by the time I'm done with dinner !

Delicious duck soba , ohitashi, and daily sashimi and nigiri . Cute spot

Oboro tofu and the chef selection sushi set were a very satisfying combination

Great sushi lunch menu including miss soup for $15.

For the price, the fish is fresh. The tofu selections are also very good. To the comment before about sushi rice being warm: chefs train hard and keep their hands cold; rice is not supposed to be warm

It’s a good quality fairly traditional small local sushi place. It’s not super ostentatious or showy but the food is good. Medium price for what it is, definitely not cheap .

Oboro tofu is one of a kind. Their toro and ikura are good too. Kindara is a bit too oily though.

Favorite in SF. Homemade tofu !

Strawberry Kochi, Tuna Belly Steak and any of the home made Tofu are to die for. Come hungry!

Their homemade Tofu is soft and tender, fresh and delicious. Sushi here is good too.

Ankake tofu > oboro imo. Eggplant with walnut miso is amaaaazing. Basically an eggplant brûlée.

Great ambiance. Definitely get the oboro tofu and any one of the desserts .

The mochi ice cream Kyoto style seemed like a much better idea than was its execution.

Excellent sushi for reasonable prices. Best I've had in SF.

Oboro tofu & ichigo mochi ! Plus the osusume du jour is always great.

Definitely get the eggplant with walnut miso ! Chef 's choice sushi is super fresh.

Amazing fresh homemade tofu with Japanese condiments

The sashimi was out of this world. So fresh. Soooo good
