50 Best Sushi Bars near Belmont

“I was pleasantly surprised by the quality of food at this sushi place! The prices might be a little high for the amount you get, but the quality is absolutely there. As long as you keep in mind that you might need to order a little more than normal to fill up, this is an excellent place to get sushi from.

The only not-so-great thing is that the chopsticks they gave me had jagged pieces of wood coming off them, and I got a bit of a splinter, but that's okay I won't hold it against them. 😆“

“So bomb!!! Service is A+ and the food is delicious. Love stopping in for lunch during the week. Very affordable also...“

“No parking. No place to eat. Sushi isn't meant to be delivered in my opinion. You have to order online. Their QRcode on the door is outdated and doesn't actually take your order. Price doesn't really make sense when there is no dine in option...“

“My brother and I were in from out of town trying to decide between a few restaurants, and were both SUPER glad we chose Sushi Kuu. We each got Curry Ramen (pork and chicken katsu) and split a NewNew Roll. The roll was awesome, perfect balance of flavors. But the ramen absolutely stole the show. The curry broth was insanely delicious. I would consider flying across the country again to get a quart container of it. HIGHLY recommend this spot.“

“This is my go to spot when visiting from Texas. The sashimi is by far the best quality I've had anywhere.
They have started getting busy so I would recommend getting on the waiting list before you get there. Inside the service was perfect.“

“It is rare that I would give a 5-star review to a restaurant that scores 4 on the food. However, I'm giving VK an exception. Yes, restaurants are about the food, but also the overall experience and the value.

VK has recently emerged in San Mateo and we visited for breakfast. This is not your high-end fancy breakfast place. This is a down-to-earth every day local eatery type of vibe. Of course not commercial as IHOP or Denny's and definitely a step above. It also isn't an Instagram shot type of a place. It truly exists to serve hearty food. And that's what it does.

The atmosphere again is a standard eatery. Sort of a diner, sort of a vanilla look & feel. I had the Steak Omelet and instant I could feel that this wasn't your commercial grade quality. The chef had used great ingredients and cooked it with care. Seasoned well, it was tasty. The side veggies also were done right. The pancakes were not top grade but could absolutely stand its own. The only reason why I retracted a star away was because it just missed border of being "special". Great food. Great taste. Just a bit too vanilla. Oh, and one of my pancakes still had a bit of runny batter in the middle, but that's okay.

Service was great. Coffee was bold and good, considering they brew these in pots.

All of the above, at a price point that is surprisingly equal or just slightly above IHOP.

VK's is absolutely a solid addition to the neighborhood. It isn't a place you come for. It is a place you go because you can rely on it. It is a working class, every day type of spot. And they are not shy about it. Will absolutely return.

Parking: Plenty of parking in the plaza.“

“The service was great and the food was fresh. I loved the shrimp tempura and the different sushi options - of which there were many.“

“Sushi was delicious and service was great! Not a romantic spot though because it’s loud but fun if your going with family and friends. Music is good!!“

“This place has very authentic sushi. Imported Japanese fish are fresh and flavorful. The other appetizers and rolls are excellent too. The only negative is they are very busy so our dinner felt a bit rushed. But if you are looking for good food, this place is one of the best Japanese restaurants on the peninsula.“

“La comida es super deliciosa 👌 y el servicio que ofrecen es excelente“

“Excellent food ! Fresh fish . Melts in your mouth . Small intimate atmosphere.“

“Hamachi shots were insane. The tofu was some of the best I’ve ever had, super soft and fried just a bit for the perfect thin, crispy texture. The sauce for the tofu was also so yum!!! Crab was pretty good, though both the crab and tofu got soggy quickly due to the sauce. The o toro nigiri was honestly the best thing from this dinner. SO. TENDER. Salmon toro and Ebodai (butter fish) were also tender, but the o toro was unmatched. Honestly could’ve passed on the yellowtail maki, it was very rice-y but still good. Yuzu cheesecake was a great way to end this magical meal. We are moved.“

“Enjoyed omakase 8pcs with some age dashi tofu, nigori sake and the white peach panna cotta!“

“It's a relaxing environment after a long day at work. The sushi was amazing & most rolls are already made w/rice paper which we love. A must try!“

“An amazing sushi experience, highly recommended“

“The food tastes great! There are a lot of options, so even if you don't like sushi there's plenty of options, like miso and udon. The staff are always patient and attentive. There are many affordable roll options, and the menu is decently priced for the area as well. Great place to go with a partner or a group of friends.“

“Fantastic evening at Robin. The omakase restaurant had a hip, night clubby feel to it as the interior was dark with dance club music, but the sushi was definitely worthwhile. Erin and Abby provided friendly and efficient service, which contributed to the overall positive experience. Free parking lot next door makes it easy to find a parking space.“

“All 13 of us thought the food and prices were good. They didn't have enough iPad tablets so our large party had to order on two, and when they brought out large platters of sushi, we couldn't tell what was what or if they made it all.“

“Kamu Sushi in South San Francisco is a cozy, small gem that really makes every visit special. Their beer and sake is top-notch and pairs beautifully with the meal. The extra spicy edamame is a fiery delight, while the seafood options like lobster and mussels are impeccably fresh. The nigiri and Spicy Spider Roll round out an unforgettable culinary experience. A must-visit for an intimate evening of great food and drink. Cheers!“

“The best sushi place in SF…I am a sushi lover. The fish there are so fresh and the Uni are premium. From the sashimi to the Kobe beef, everything is top. Their pricing is also very reasonable. Eric and Phoebe are very nice and provide excellent service.“

“Always great food & service! Clean, friendly & fresh food! Thank you again!🤗♥“

“Thank you for the fresh Uni, and very awesome customer service. Highly recommend!!!“

“The sushi presentation was excellent and made me excited to dig in! Very unique and delicious assortment of sushi and flavors. I felt that the takeout sushi was more economical than if you were do a sit-down omakase at another location in the bay. Pick-up was quick and smooth.

It would have been great if I had recieved confirmation email within a week, instead of following up with the business. However, I understand that this a small business and it can be hectic for the owner to manage communications, logistics and sushi prep for several customers.“

“Great food and great people. I always have excellent service and great food when I eat there.“

“From the warm greeting everyone receives when walking through the door to the attentive and super friendly service, this place is amazing! The sushi was outstanding… hands down the best sushi I’ve ever had! The texture, taste and presentation was top notch. Wish there was a location on the east coast!“

“This is my and my husband’s favorite sushi restaurant! This is a must-visit restaurant when friends or family visit. This is a restaurant recognized by everyone! It's a little pricey (but not terribly expensive), but it's really worth it⭐️⭐️⭐️ I really recommend this place! In particular, salmon belly and eel sushi melt as soon as you put them in your mouth. Be sure to order it haha. The place itself is small, but the sushi quality is so good that we go often haha.

This is my go-to sushi place in the bay area! I really recommend this place because once you put the sushi into your mouth.. it melts. Especially I recommend unagi(eel) sushi and salmon belly sushi! The price is a little bit high, but reasonable price - because it is definitely worth it. Also all the employees are so kind and nice here :)“

“Cozy little Japanese restaurant with super friendly servers. The owner works at the counter. I come for Ishiyaki Hitsumamushi (Stone Bowl Seafood Rice) which I don’t think is served anywhere else. I also had tuna bone marrow for appetitzer and black sesame cheesecake for dessert. So many other dishes I want to try so will be back.“

“Good sushi for good price“

“Love their service and their sashimi and sushi. Very good and �!“

“This place right here has the best sushi rolls for the best price!! They hook it up fat! They are always friendly I'm willing to do whatever you ask to you're liking to accommodate your sushi experience! At this spot I always get the most sushi rolls for what my money is worth!! You can order ahead of time so you can come by in and pick up your food when ready! Great thing also about this place there was a time when I lagged to pick up my order and I was still treated with the upmost respect I'm kind customer service as I would if I picked up on time!! Must try to teriyaki chicken is super good 🤩💯“

“Great food. Good portions. Our server is very nice, friendly, polite and professional.“

“Mmmmmm, so good. And open for lunch. I had the um, I don't remember but it was kind of like an everything roll. Accompanied by two cold Asahi - fuhgeddaboudit. Service was quick for it being a busy lunch spot. Staff is super nice. Definitely check out next time in Palo Alto. I'm addicted to sushi. Cheers!“

“Cute and cozy restaurant with a picturesque Japanese inn-like aesthetic. Great fish quality and friendly, efficient service. Very pricey - went with my husband and ordered 2 rolls between us, along with some unagi and the bill was over $100. I could see this being a nice date night place, given the ambience and the cocktail menu looked promising as well. For us, the price to quality ratio wasn't as worth it for more regular dinner nights out (for that, we recommend Akami Sushi just a few min away!)“

“Great walkable neighborhood“

“😋Best super fresh sushi, without spending what is typically outrageous prices for this area. Good portions, delicious sushi, and really everything on their menu. We go back again and again.“

“Had the chirashi bowl it was delicious one of the nicest I’ve ever had. Fish was very fresh and there were many varieties. Rice was cooked perfectly and the egg omelette and cucumber complemented the flavors excellently. Compliments to the chef.“

“Family run spot in San Bruno. Located on El Camino Real, it's easy to miss if you drive by.

The restaurant itself isn't too large, but there's seating for groups of all sizes. The menu is pretty extensive and has a good variety. We ended up getting a sashimi combo, one roll, and the lamb appetizer.

The sashimi itself was pretty tasty with no fishy smell. We got a good variety of sashimi, but my favorite was the salmon. The lamb was delicious as well and we're a good size.

Service is good and the staff is nice. We got our drinks refilled often without us asking.“

“Not my usual sushi diner, but we wanted to try out a new place. This restaurant has 2 stories with a staircase.

The service was average. The serving staff couldn’t speak English. We didn’t know Spanish so we had to communicate with body language to ask for some water. The staff that actually took our orders knew English, but he was missing the first 10 minutes, counting from when we finished scanning the menu.

The food was very good. Fresh sashimi and sushi rolls. The only thing that could be improved was the plain udon. As far as I know, even Japanese plain udon contains seaweed, fish cakes and tempura crumbs. This one had none. Literally, just udon and broth, not even chopped green onions.

Vegetarian options: They have veggie dishes, look for the descriptions.

Parking: Free parking after 6pm

Kid-friendliness: Kid’s high chairs and plastic utensils

Wheelchair accessibility: I think first floor dining area is for disabilities and elders.“

“The sushi is fresh and tantalizing.
Three sushi chefs work non-stop ever since I sit down.
Inside is big with sushi bar and teppan seatings.
They have 2 more places at SFO Airport.
You'll find out. And do enjoy!“

“The food is excellent. I visited about a month and a half ago. We had a family of 4. We each ordered two to three rolls, and beer. We all loved the food and I cannot stop thinking of the Honey walnut roll. Super fresh. The only thing disappointing is that our waiter basically left us or went on break halfway through our meal. We were still wanting to order more. He didn’t tell us he was leaving. He didn’t pass us off to another waitperson. It was odd, confusing and kind of disappointing. We had to keep asking waitstaff as they walked by, for additional items, as well as the check. We basically had no additional wait service, unless we sought it out. If they wanted us to come to the counter and order- that would’ve been fine, and the staff could bus, but we were definitely seated and treated as if we would have service at the table at the beginning. We watched other staff wait tables for the entire meal of other patrons. Not sure what was going out with our waiter (shorter guy).
Anyhow the food was great. I’ll probably try carry out next time instead.“

“Wandered in after getting disgusted by the parking situation at another nearby restaurant. Very pleasantly surprised by the attentive service, taste and quality of the food, and the availability of gluten free options. Crab cakes were really good.“

“We walked in for a quick munch. Surprisingly we were the only ones there at 2pm. Service is great!“

“Family operated business establishments are always the best!! Food is superb!! Price is competitive!“

“Great service, food was delish. Chef made special sushi dish ( not on the menu) that was FIRE! My new to go place.❤️❤️❤️“

“We sat at the sushi bar and the two chefs were very nice and helped us make our choices. We had several different rolls and all were fantastic. We also had the tempura cheesecake and it was outstanding. The servicE was excellent and prompt, the staff is friendly. We can't wait to go back!“

“Their all-you-can-eat option is the best deal going! Try everything on the menu- very fresh, so yummy and discount for cash payment“

“Fantastic food and good prices Excellent service“

“YES THIS SUSHI IC SO CLOSE TO OUR HOUSE AND CHEAP!!!! YOU GET A FREE DRINK WITH ORDER! ( not including water, that’s always free)

Kid-friendliness: Not many kids go there, but they are still kind to kids who do go there.“

“Absolutely amazing❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️ best sushi!“

“I had pretty low expectations for a sushi place attached to a La Quinta, but this place was spectacular. The fish was fresh and prepared well, the presentation was very nice, and sitting at the sushi bar was a cool experience. Service was a little slow, but they were absolutely packed with customers. It's not hard to see why. I've paid twice as much for sushi half as good. This place was excellent.“
