For the price you pay, the omakase items are substantial enough to fill you up. The chef's creativity brings you dishes and experiences you have not tried before. Chef knows what to serve as seasonal items. There is a balance of cooked and sushi items. Nice sake of course.

A wonderful omakase experience and sake pairing. The staff were very welcoming and Chef Jason is a master of his craft. The fusion between Chinese and Japanese flavors during the appetizers was very well done and a great homage to his roots. All of the nigiri courses were all excellently prepared and of incredible quality.

It was a wonderful experience. The team at Sushi Shin goes above and beyond to ensure you're well pampered. The only downside to our visit was the business meeting happening right next to us. It really kills the vibe when you 70 percent of the room is there for work.

Top quality ingredients, both local seasonal produce and relatively rare seafood imported from Japan. Loved the detailed information provided by the chef. Very attentive service. Super happy with the experience.

Not a fan. Premium ingredients but execution just wasn’t there (and hasn’t really been there for a while now, in my personal opinion).
If you’re Chinese, I think it’s fun because Jason often explains things in Chinese but for basically anyone else it’s just not an experience I’d recommend

Had high expectations, but it was just okay. The Chinese chef served some Chinese dishes, which took away from the true omakase experience. The space was tiny, and even with an assistant, it felt a bit chaotic. My first disappointment at a Michelin-recommended spot.

Jason is awesome. Top 2 sushi place in California. High quality nigiri and shuko. Sake pairing is insane. Juyongdai and jikon～

Tokyo style omakase that's flawless. It's a lot of courses 25 to be precise and every course represents the best of Chef's experience from youth to adulthood. It's a feast and you need to skip lunch to fully appreciate the creations. The fish as expected is all fresh flown in from Tokyo paired with a lot of fresh California produce. I thinks it's one of the best omakase in the bay area

4th time here and always amazing. Not the most traditional omakase as Chef puts in his own creative touch which I think all tastes amazing.

Food is good, but the chef is a bit arrogant and makes us feel uncomfortable when we asked questions and discussed with him. He doesn’t really know well about sea urchins, and always says we are wrong lol
Amazing food and service! Very unique menu that is seafood forward but not just pieces of sushi. Really loved the variety!

Absolutely love it. This is my favorite Japanese restaurant and I would recommend it to anyone who enjoys Japanese food, with well balanced innovations.
I came a few times, and each time the food was soooo good, yet the menu always has a few innovative dishes. The most amazing part is it's getting better - even I thought this is the best already.
The chef is very friendly and kind. The dining atmosphere is great as you can chat with the chef and also the other customers as you're friends.
The sake pairing here is also great as you can get so many rare sakes that are kept at their best flavor.
