“ This is a really nice sushi restaurant that is only 2 minute walk from my place. I wonder why I never noticed it before. The sushi I had was perfectly made and the waiter was very friendly and the ambiance of the place was excellent. I may come back here again sometime. If I can give them 10 stars I would. ”
“ Sushi Zone Forever! My sweet little neighborhood sushi spot may have changed hands, but it's as warm and wonderful as always. I've been eating here for decades (since even before the previous owners), and this spot somehow continues to maintain its unique charm. Plus, Eddie is still there and remembers all the regulars and neighbors, and the friendly new owner, chef and servers are catching up on names and faces very quickly. And of course, the sushi itself is sublime. My "only at SZ' go-tos are still killer (spicy hamachi, both hawaiian rolls, various nigiri) and the new expanded menu is already yielding some fine new go-tos and specials as well. The quality of everything is as great as ever, and it's pretty exciting to have so many new options now, too. Hooray for Sushi Zone! ”
“ The best sushi restaurant I've been ever tried before. Their service is really good and the waiter is really helpful. Baked mussels are my favorite ever. Yum yum ”
“ I've been wanting to try this place for a while -- pleasantly surprised by the quality and service! Salmon tartare and baked mussels had to be my favorite out of all the dishes we ordered. Salmon tartare was exceptionally fresh. Baked mussels were recommended by the chef and I'm so glad we got it! Not too fishy and creamy in a tasteful way. I'd skip the Hawaiian rolls and order more of salmon tartare instead! Service and ambiance were good too. Place is small but not too loud. Definitely coming back. ”
“ Found a hidden gem in an alley. It was a chilly night so I decided to get some warm sake to warm me up. The area is a bit quiet but definitely worth visiting. Everything we ordered with delicious and fish was very fresh. Food highlights -Toro Toro roll - 5/5 This was my fave roll. Buttery toro with seared salmon on top. Can't ask for a better bite. -Spicy mango salmon - 4/5 not really spicy but a great roll with the hint of sweetness from the mango -Volcano - 4/5 crisp tempura crunch with spicy tuna -Walu sashimi - 5/5 this was very thickly sliced and rich. Melted in my mouth delicious. Sake avocado tartar - 4/5 solid appetizer with fresh salmon and avocado mixed in round mold. Baked bass 4/5 creamy mixture that had a nice texture from the mango and fish Stuffed jalapeno 4/5 it had nice kick with a fish mixture Ambiance Some bar seating at the chefs table and a few tables inside as well as outside. A smaller family owned sushi spot where you can get some excellent quality fish and a reasonable price. Service Staff were attentive, friendly and checked in at appropriate times. Overall I can't wait to come back to try more of the menu! ”
“ Everything was great spicy hamachi,spicy salmon mango,Seabass mango on mussel shell Thank you Terrance I love be back again for sure ”
“ Delicious. Good taste/good music. Loving it. Friendly too. Baked Bass and Toro Toro delicious, a must to try out ”
“ One of my favorite sushi spots in SF. The baked appetizers are great but kinda expensive. The service is top notch, and the ambiance is homey/hole in wall vibes. Would recommend the Taro Taro roll. ”
“ Yay they are finally open again. I work nearby and used to come here under the old management. They were closed I think for 1-2 week after the old owners retired. I was by myself and I already had dinner so I got Sashimi plate because I couldn't eat too much. Man I just wanna say the fish was prepared really well. Extra smelly liquid were extracted and the texture was very nice. Not in a fancy location or anything but will be my to-go spot again when I feel like sushi! I think they added new rolls as the new sushi chef has worked for 20 years before finally opening his shop and added his twists. ”
“ Final days of the long and illustrious reign of Hideko, Giuseppe and Yoshi. Last night is 7/27 (don't worry, the new sushi chef is a twenty year vet and training alongside Yoshi as we speak). Thank you all for two plus decades of making Sushi Zone my favorite sushi spot in SF. ”
