50 Best Sushi Bars near Larkspur

“Just popped in for lunch today and the environment was so sophisticated and relaxing. There was jazz in the radio and soft lighting and I was so happy to be out of the rain. The dragon roll was the best I’ve ever had and the service was excellent. What a hidden gem- I’ll be back!“

“Miso soup was good; not super flavorful but at least not overly salty like so many. Donburi was served in a flat plate with protein on top, rather than in the traditional bowl. I like the change; easier to get a mixed chopstick full of protein and rice. There is a lovely outdoor space where you could enjoy watching the bike path traffic but unfortunately it was not usable during my visit due to yellow jackets.“

“this is my favorite sushi place and i have lived in the bay area my whole life. they have the BEST ginger dressing in the world. i even use it to dip my sushi in. the chef johneth is very nice and knowledgeable, he even walked me through how he hand makes the dressing so i can do it at home! love the atmosphere, indoor, outdoor and bar seating. small, cute, clean, comfortable and overall nice.“

“Food always exquisite. Excellent service. Consistent food quality. I visit at least twice every time I’m in town!“

“Everything. Best of everything.“

“The best sea bass and the best sushi 🍣 Love it“

“I was seated right away at Ninja Sushi, which was a great start. The food came out impressively fast without sacrificing quality. Everything tasted fresh, flavorful, and well-prepared. The service was friendly and efficient, making the whole experience smooth and enjoyable. I’ll definitely be coming back next time I’m craving sushi!“

“Best sushi in the Marina District!“

“The best sushi place in the city!! Quality of food is 10 out of 5......“

“Found Sushi Tri while looking for ramen spots in Novato, but went for the sushi and wasn't disappointed. Went to dinner with our younger children(5+7), and there were other families there. Great menu selection with good prices, and quick turnaround on sushi dishes.“

“Nice little spot! Emphasis on little. Went in, was the only diner for a while until a few other folks came in. Sat at the counter that had a convenient foot bar. Staff was attentive. The music was really calming too.
Ordered the duck breast ramen for 1$18 and it was so good! Great flavors! Was so excited to eat, I burned my tongue a little🥲 Didn’t try any sushi, but if you’re looking for a ramen fix, you won’t be disappointed!“

“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.“

“The most amazing and traditional sushi near Golden Gate! I totally recommend this place!! You should come here, ask for the Nigiri Combo, you’re going to love it!!! The fish is VERY VERY FRESH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!Can’t wait to come back to SF, to eat here again!!!“

“Muy buena comida y muy buen servicio“

“Loved everything there, especially my daughter. Will always come back!“

“Even after a 4 year hiatus (work relocation) Tajikistan San greeted me at the door tonight with "So good to see you, two chicken bento, extra dressing!". Arigatou's is world class.“

“Omg! The Ribs are amazing!“

“What a wonderful place! We're very picky with our sushi, and this was great. The fish were all really good cuts, and the rolls were well made. The servers were also super friendly. I recommend their eel (donburi or rolls were both good textures/flavors)“

“This is a great little place to have sushi for lunch. I ordered a salmon teriyaki box and there was a generous portion of salmon, rice, salad, and veggies. My husband had a sushi box and said that it was very good. The prices are reasonable considering the location. The restaurant's very small so there's not much seating but it's possible to use a couple of picnic tables outside.“

“Dinner started off strong with flavorful chicken and beef skewers, and the salmon kama was a highlight—perfectly cooked and delicious.

The rolls were less impressive. The Rock & Roll and Spider rolls were drenched in eel sauce, which overpowered everything. I’m always a bit cautious when sushi comes heavily sauced—it feels like something’s being covered up. The sushi rice was also a bit soggy.

The uni, saba, and hamachi sushi were all fresh and enjoyable, though the uni portions were smaller than expected.

Bill came out to over $150. A little pricey for what we got, but with smarter ordering, I’d give it another try.

4 stars“

“Excellent sushi and service. Creative and fresh“

“Was here on Christmas Eve, and the food, service, and ambience couldn’t have been better. Had clay pot dishes, both beef and tofu, assorted nigiri, Dragon roll - all wonderfully fresh, edamame, a shrimp tempura roll, and sake. We we all delighted. Thanks for adding to a beautiful Christmas Eve!“

“Eating is a kind of happiness, taste is a kind of interest“

“Best sushi, hands down. I haven’t been to enough sushi places in SF to say it’s the best in the city. But what I can tell you it’s the best sushi I’ve ever had in my life. Be patient. It’s just mom and pop behind the counter, but it’s worth it.“

“Superlative. See my picture post. Ichiban!“

“Quality is key with any meal. Roger-San is all about quality. Sit at the bar if you can!“

“Sakura is a hidden gem! Their sushi is outstanding and the Miso soup with the tiny mushrooms is delicious. You are always "welcomed" when you walk in and checked on while eating, making sure you are well taken care of. Everyone I have brought there LOVES it!“

“A friendly and placenta place , I like the variety of dishes to choose .“

“Delicious food and friendly staff“

“Every dish truly amazed me!
The flavors, presentation, and attention to detail were outstanding.
I’m a huge fan of uni, and theirs was absolutely delicious — fresh, rich, and unforgettable.
The chef and staff were incredibly warm and attentive, which made the whole experience even better.
Highly recommend!“

“I was skeptical about ordering because of the low review score but it was genuinely super great at a very good price point! Sushi is generally pricey especially in SF, so I was delighted at the price for the KK combo. $19 for 24 pcs is a steal.“

“Stopped in this spot while in SF and it did not disappoint. The sushi burritos were fresh, loaded, and super tasty. The sauces? Straight fire—took everything to the next level. Service was fast and friendly, and while the vibe is pretty basic, the food more than makes up for it. Solid spot if you’re looking for something quick, casual, and bomb.“

“woah. i dont really say real deal but real f***** deal. well balanced. superb quality. exceptional service and presentation. clean flavors. first time I have actually been left utterly speechless. 5 stars. 5 forks. whatever. this place is the jam......“

“Excellent food, excellent service. We loved it. We had Shrimp Tempura Roll, Sexy Roll, Edamame, Miso Soup, Kirin Beer. Can’t wait to go back again.“

“Happy hour menu is so good. The skewer platter is a great meal and also much love to the agedashi tofu. I drank a lot of hot sake and enjoyed just hanging out. I would avoid the beef tongue because it was a bit dry. The wagyu beef skewer was spot on.“

“9 items 🍱 bento & udon are awesome 👏“

“Staff were all really nice. Food was excellent. The sushi is a bit on the pricier side and I'm not cool enough to be able to tell the difference between a $15+ roll and a $10 roll. The miso soup was probably the best I've ever had.“

“Did a last minute date night dinner here, we ordered the Chef Choice's Nigiri and Sashimi and added a Foggy Paradise roll. All of it was fantastic. They were super accommodating regarding a shellfish allergy and provided great detail on each fish for our Omakase.“

“The food was absolutely delicious — the ingredients were perfectly balanced in both texture and flavor. The atmosphere was great, and I really appreciated the thoughtful touch in the restroom: providing personal hygiene items for women and even toothpaste. It’s nice to see such genuine care for guests!“

“Excellent Customer Service and Very Accommodating of my Shellfish Allergy. Ask for Michael if you need suggestions!“

“excelente comida, maravillosa atención. lo recomiendo al 100%“

“This authentic Japanese food was delicious and beautifully served. The cocktails were wonderful. The staff was attentive and really nice. We throughly enjoyed our evening here.“

“This family-owned gem is one of my favorite spots to visit. From the moment you step inside, you're greeted with a warm, welcoming atmosphere that feels like home. There's no sense of rush or over-attention, just a relaxed and pleasant vibe.

The menu offers a great variety of options, both cooked and raw. We started with miso soup and sashimi, paired with hot sake as an appetizer. For dinner, we enjoyed the Scope Special, Spicy Tuna Roll, Spider Roll, Dragon Roll, Lucky Stars, and finished off with the Chef's Special Roll. The fish was fresh, and every dish was absolutely delicious.

My friends and I had a blast, enjoying the food, sipping sake, and catching up, all without feeling rushed. If you're in the area, don't miss out on this hidden treasure. It's the kind of place that you'll want to return to again and again.“

“We have had a few amazing dining experiences here! The sushi is so fresh, the sake sommelier Stewart is really knowledgeable and has some great recommendations!!“

“The happy hour ( aloha hour) is stacked with yummy things. The coconut shrimp was absolutely perfect.
Good margaritas.
New updates location with twice the sw footage. Amazing radiant heaters for each table perfect for those romantic or date nights.

I've lived here a few years and never been. Will be coming more often especially for the spicy steak tacos. So tender and moist. Sorry. No photos. Ate too quickly. Here is a picture of the yummy pineapple beer.“

“Tokyo Express, back in the early 2010's, used to be really popular with a line during lunchtime. Some of my old co-workers used to enjoy coming here. Business has sure when downhill since the pandemic. There was only one other table occupied at lunch time on a Wednesday. The staff was really busy however packing up to-go orders. I had their Wednesday special, the tonkatsu $13. The pork fillet was a bit dry and not juicy, tender and properly cooked. The panko had a nice crunch. It did come with an alright tonkatsu sauce. With this dish, it should come with shredded cabbage served with a miso-ginger dressing or Japanese sesame dressing, but it didn't come with it. Since this is not an authentic Japanese restaurant, I didn't knock off stars for that. Service was non-existent as this is an order at the counter style restaurant and no tea or water was served. There was a free cup of miso soup and my food came out in a reasonable amount of time.“

“Server and bus person were extremely rude, wouldn't clear the table before we sat. When we asked to have the table wiped down we were snapped at and spoken meanly to. The server presented the check but wasn't clearing the table even when we asked so we could finish our drinks. Just wanted his money and completely ignored us. Although the food was good I'll never go back because the servers were so terrible.“

“Best sushi I’ve had on the west coast!!! Delicious!!!! The service seems to need a little amping up but the tastiness made it worth it!!!! Ask the sushi chef for a “special roll” you won’t be disappointed“

“I have been here 3x now and have had great food and great service. Mix and match Bento Box and Tempura are fresh. Everyone else around me always gets Sushi and I hear them say how good it is (I have not been adventurous enough to try Sushi). It is on Pine and Grant, extremely clean and nice view of Chinatown. Very reasonable prices. :)“

“Excellent Asian food and super friendly. Almost an insider tip! I can only recommend it!“
