“came here for their $38 sashimi omakase. which was really good and fresh. great for the price for the selection we received & portions. sashimi came with a side of sushi rice. we also got the truffle ramen which I though was okay but my daughter loved it. Also got the snow white roll which I though was pretty good also.“

“The Ashley roll a vegetarian option is just out of this world. We've come here so many times. today I I've decided to order something different for a change. Ordered their bento lunch box, salmon teriyaki, and it was also excellent.“

“This is our regular Japanese restaurant that we come regularly. I usually order unagy fried rice, veggie dragon and caterpillar to share. My husband usually order a bento box with chicken karaage and beef teriyaki while mom would have a bento box of salmon teriyaki and chicken teriyaki. It’s always good. Considering we are regulars, the waitress was very surprised when we ordered the following. Today we ordered veggie tempura (yummy), miso ramen, honey tonkatsu ramen, and mother ordered Charshu ramen. Not bad. Soup was not salty and it was enough.
Update: 06/05/2025
Wanted to have a lite dinner. We ordered: tempura morí, caterpillar roll to share, Charcui ramen, spiral ramen, tempura udon, vege ramen, and chicken don. Not bad. The soup was not salty. Portions was just right. We all finished our dinner and appetizer.
Update: 07/08/2025
Felt like noodles. We ordered: Seafood Ramen, Miso Ramen and bento boxes. We shared: Tempura Miro and Caterpillar Sushi. Yummy.“

“I have come here to celebrate many special occasions. The food and cocktails are excellent, and the service is flawless. The amount of food served for dinner omakase is perfect, but I can never turn down an extra nigiri or two after the set menu is completed.“

“Kuma on Valencia is the real deal. I’m picky about my sushi and this place keeps passing the test. I’ve been three times in person and even ordered delivery twice, and every time the fish has been fresh, generous, and just really good.
If you want to splurge, go wild with their nigiri - so many cuts to choose from and all beautifully done. The toro handroll is so decadent I’m salivating thinking about it. If you don’t, the rolls are deliciousssss. My most memorable bite so far was their Zeitgeist roll with toro, eggplant tempura, and purple rice. Honestly a work of art.
The sake menu is awesome, the staff is genuinely kind, and the sushi bar has that fun buzz without being too much. It’s the kind of spot where you can go casual on a weeknight or post up for a longer dinner and just keep ordering “one more thing.”“

“The food and service were so good. The server was so kind and nice! She made my night! And the sushi and other food was amazing. Super fresh! While it’s not high end ambiance (I almost didn’t walk in… so glad I did), the prices were right and everything was spot on. Highly recommend!“

“Don’t know how I just found about this gem in soma! Seems like not many people know about it. We were skeptical about the photoshopped photos and the name 😅 and the overwhelming 5 star reviews, but it was so legit. On a slightly pricier side compared to your average sushi restaurant but comparable to Akari and Kombu and we liked that they have so much more options.
The chirashi set was great, loved that they had oden as well. Area is sketch and don’t make our mistake of going to the sushi place next door!“

“Excellent sushi, great ambience, wonderful service. The best sushi restaurant in San Francisco. I love sushi and eat sushi a lot. This place is by far the best and we had a wonderful experience. The chef Ono san knows so much about fish and sushi. You can trust him to serve you the entire omakase menu. I will make sure to come back more again and again.“

“Good for lunch. Really value for your money. I had the sashimi lunch set and my wife had the chicken wing and salmon sushi set and both were really fresh and good. Will definitely come again ! Weekdays - reservations not really needed, but I've come by on weekends and you should make reservations.“

“Best sushi in the city. The chefs are super talented and the waitstaff are always great. Food is top notch. Good selection for different fish and apps. I usually go for omakase, but sometimes the kira kira or ninja roll. The atmosphere is not too loud. You can usually find parking within a couple blocks.“

“I was looking for a high end sushi restaurant close to the Orpheum as I had tickets last night to see Les Miz. Nakama Sushi showed up when I googled for such a restaurant type. It was my first time to this place. Very attentive service. We ordered to special chef's omakase dinner. Wow! 4 amazing appetizers, the sweetest sashimi (so fresh and melts in your mouth tender), with subtle delicious flavors, chawanmushi, sushi hand roll, miso soup and a lovely dessert. Well worth it. Loved the food, loved the experience.“

“I was told to check this sushi restaurant out because I very picky when it comes to eating raw fish. The hamachi was delectable buttery fresh just the way I like it. The service was immaculate the food was divine. The ambience was peaceful. The feng shui of the restaurant makes you feel like you are at home. I highly recommend the establishment to anyone who cares about clean food properly prepared. This is a must go to restaurant if you enjoy sushi. 10 out of 5 stars is my rating. I always over order when I enjoy my first course. The prices are very reasonable for the quality of food and service that you receive.“

“This seems to be a popular spot in the neighborhood, due to the flavor and price point of the menu items. I dined in with my son and his girlfriend and they love it. We had the Romeo & Juliet, BTS Roll, Caterpillar Roll, and Agedashi Tofu. My favorites were the Romeo & Juliet and the Agedashi Tofu. The staff was polite and attentive. I'm glad we didn't have to wait for a table. I really enjoyed spending time with my son and his girlfriend at one of their favorite eateries.“

“I rarely leave reviews for restaurants but I couldn't not do it for Lion. The owner and her husband Chef Tom were so incredibly sweet; what would have been tricky to serve my in-laws and a fussy 1 year old ended up being the most amazing experience. The service was top notch and fast, the inside of the restaurant is fun and romantic, and on top of that, ALL our food was phenomenal - my husband and I agreed that we want to keep coming back and make it one of our regulars. Thank you Lion for such a memorable night for our family 💜“

“We had an amazing dining experience! The food was fantastic, and the host was incredibly friendly and helpful. We followed his recommendations and ordered the chef’s choice bowl, sushi tacos, salad, and toro—and he was absolutely right. Everything was so delicious, I nearly swallowed my tongue! I think my favorite was the sushi tacos—they were out of this world. Highly recommend!“
