I hosted a private party here, and the chef was so kind to create a special menu for my event. Everything is very fresh, and my guests were amazed by the great taste of their food. We especially loved the uni, o-toro, and oyster. The smooth texture and sweetness of the fresh sashimi were all so amazing.

Incredible sushi! I am super critical about my food choices - especially sushi. It's truly my comfort food after a long day or when I want to relax so choosing the perfect place is important. I always fear that the sushi quality may not be fresh or the rolls that the restaurant makes are way too saucy and not appetizing but Sushi Chef blew my expectations out of the water. I went with the Lion King roll and the Rainbow roll both of which were 10/10. *Disclaimer: I am celiac so choosing gluten-free rolls is very important.* I called the restaurant to ask for what substitutions I should make and the lady that answered was SO kind and so helpful. She informed me that I should go ahead and order anything I'd like and the chef will ensure that there's no gluten. They even packed a special container of gluten-free soy sauce and spicy mayo. If you're looking for a sushi place and confused with the hundreds of options on DoorDash, Uber Eats, etc. - just do yourself a favor and stop the search.. order Sushi Chef now.

Atmosphere was awesome, such great vibes. Food was delicious, high quality and very very well made. Obviously the sushi rolls were good, but the appetizers were awesome too!We came as a part of four, were seated immediately at the bar and had an awesome time enjoying wonderful food!

Best quality fish in San Francisco. Very friendly and attentive staff. Also amazing for take out & delivery, which can't be said for most sushi restaurants in the city. As an anecdotal example, the first thing I wanted to do to make me feel better once I found out I had a torn ACL was to come to Sushi Chef. Please support this incredible local business!

Excellent fish, and the attention to detail really shows off the quality of the sushi and their flavor. Welcoming atmosphere and very polite service. Even the bathroom was comfortably clean! 10/10 would recommend.

Wow. What an amazing spot. We got out of the din of CNY. Nice modern but warm interior matched with fantastic food and lovely service. Def has become one of our faves.

Very cute little sushi place - got seaweed salad and a crazy roll and was very pleased with the tempura shrimp in the roll. The plating was beautiful as well

We celebrated Valentine's Day early this year and I picked Sushi Chef as our dinner stop before seeing the show at Club Fugazi. Upon arrival, I noted it was much smaller than I expected, with about 5-6 tables and I think they're reservation only, or at least strongly recommended. We were quickly seated and the staff were very prompt and helpful as we worked our way through the menu. We both had a drink, an appetizer and shared a few rolls. Compared to the other sushi restaurants we've been to, this feels a bit more "fancy" but the prices are still very reasonable - which works well for a date night or if you just want to treat yourself without blowing your budget. We enjoyed everything, B was especially a fan of their garlic edamame. After tip it was a little over $100 for the two of us, which was less than expected. We're not in the area a lot but I'd definitely return and recommend it.

This place are quite small, they only have four tables and a sushi bar. We went there as a group for the new year party, and we ordered a lot of food! They were all pretty good! The tofu was very tender and the fried tofu skin was just right. Also the Japanese wings were great, they served it with mild spicy, meat was very tender. Two ramens were good too except the broth was too oily for my taste, the rest were normal good.

Small but beautifully appointed restaurant with great nigiri and maki mono. Really enjoyed it.
