About Sakesan Sushi & Robata

Sakesan Sushi & Robata is a modern Japanese restaurant serving sushi, ramen, and other Japanese street cuisine. The sushi is excellent, with fresh and flavorful pieces, including the cherry blossom roll and nigiri. The restaurant is known for its super fresh sashimi, particularly the hamachi carpaccio, and offers a variety of rolls like the Inside out roll and Godzilla Roll. While the ramen, especially the tonkatsu black garlic ramen, has received some criticism for being watery and bland, other dishes like takoyaki and dynamite mussels are praised.

The restaurant features private karaoke rooms, making it a popular spot for celebrations, such as birthdays. The largest room accommodates about 12 people comfortably, and the minimum spend is around $450, which is easy to reach with food and drinks. Customers enjoy the cozy atmosphere and friendly, efficient service that enhances the dining experience. However, some have noted issues with the karaoke system, including technical difficulties and space constraints. Regardless, the food remains a highlight, with many enjoying the great value, such as the deal of 1 dozen oysters for $12. Overall, Sakesan is recommended for anyone looking for a nice family-owned sushi restaurant in San Francisco, and happy hour is available on weekends, making it a great option for groups.
