    Dragon Roll
    Adrienne H.

    my friend was craving sushi late and recommended we go here. we arrived after 1 am and were the only ones there. We were greeted and seated as soon as we walked in. The staff is so nice and great customer service. We ordered miso soup and the dragon roll. Ive never seen sushi come out so fast. It was really good. I definitely will be back and love that they are open late. They have a good amount of seating and also have tvs to watch.

    First time ordering from this place. I ordered thru GrubHub on the Yelp app. It is not a high end sushi place but it is solid. The kind of place you order for girl dinner or a Netflix marathon. The fish was a tad thin but I am happy to now have a new, casual, easy, affordable sushi spot. Delivery was perfect. I tipped so the delivery person would come into the building and he did just that. They gave all the appropriate chopsticks, napkins and soy sauce.

    Haven't visited this establishment in decay. It's still here. Food was delicious. Service was great too. No happy hour.

    Late night sushi! Good enough for being open super late. We arrived around 12:40am and they said they are taking last orders though, so don't go too close to 1am. Food was pretty good except their tempura seemed really old and stale, and their scallop nigiri did not taste fresh. I loved the time they put into decorating the place though- one piece, totoro, kikis delivery service, and many more anime related decors can be found. Quite fun!

    I love that this place is open late night even after I get off of work late. The fish, Katsu and salmon balls are my favorite.

    Love coming here! Great service that's fast and friendly. Love the decor and homage to Haha Miyazaki with the pictures and movies. Food is amazing! Every roll ordered is delicious. Love starting off with hamachi Kama and trying new rolls each time. Just like any neighborhood in the Bay Area, you take parking with caution nowadays. But I will still come here on a late night. They're worth it.

    This is my favorite sushi spot and y'all gotta try it if you haven't been!! Easily my favorite because of the good food, and the place being decorated in anime!! It's fairly priced but everything is worth the price and wait! If you're stuck and don't know what to order, I recommend starting with the BBQ mussels and a roll of your choice! But if you want to try a new roll, I recommend you get the Oh Sexy roll. It's wrapped in rice paper and feels so clean and light. It's what I get every time I visit, in addition to another roll! I'll definitely be back!!

    I'd agree with the 3.5 star rating for this restaurants. The prices are slightly expensive but that's about right for the post pandemic SF Bay Area. The fish was not super fresh and was kind of dry but it's acceptable. You can tell by the color because it looks kind of dull. No octopus or egg or shrimp or eel with the nigiri combo

I decided to venture out and order something that wasn't one of those items, and honestly, I was underwhelmed. (Spoiler: it was the scallop roll.) It just wasn't for me. That said, their sashimi sets are fresh, and their baked rolls are consistently good, so I'd recommend sticking with those. SERVICE: 9/10 Friendly, attentive staff who made for a pleasant dining experience. AMBIANCE: 9/10 The restaurant is very clean, but my favorite part is the outdoor patio. The East Bay-inspired murals add so much character, and the fresh flowers make the space feel inviting. They also have outdoor heaters when it gets chilly, so it's a great spot to enjoy a meal outside. Parking can be a bit of a pain, but overall it's still a solid sushi spot that I wouldn't mind coming back to.

And I have to give a special shoutout to the house salad. It might sound silly to rave about a salad at a sushi restaurant, but the salad and the dressing are absolutely addictive. I don't know what they put in that dressing, but it's seriously that good. The outdoor patio in the back is another reason we love coming here, especially when we want to bring our dogs along. Great food, friendly service, and a relaxed atmosphere keep us coming back time and time again. If you're looking for incredible sushi in the Bay Area, R&R Sushi and Bowls should absolutely be on your list.

I dined here on a weeknight during a heat wave, and walked in as a party of 2 to be seated immediately. The host even provided options of which table we preferred.

The ingredients seem quality and the noodle texture has the perfect chew, which Mensho described them as "mochi noodles". I opted for the vegan ramen during my recent visit, loved all the veggies and the broth wasn't too salty. I had a couple bites of the wagyu from the wagyu ramen, the meat was very rich/buttery. I probably wouldn't want a whole serving of that, but a few bites satisfied the curiousity. Currently, Mensho offers a matcha pudding type dessert for $7. It was very tasty with a few bites of red beans and couple slices of strawberry. I was actually enjoying every bite. Prices have definitely creeped up over the years, glad to see that they're still using quality ingredients. Service was good. I'll come again during the next heat wave. Haha. #39/2026

Decent wine selection - Chardonnay was good. Restaurant itself is fairly loud, especially with a baby that kept crying. But it might have been crying because it was loud.

I could eat 2 of these with a bowl of rice and it would be a hearty meal! + Chicken karaage was solid--crispy, good portion, and a nice appetizer. It's basically a Japanese version of chicken strips that is way better than nuggets. + Salmon sashimi for the kids never disappoints. ~ Chirashi bowl was fresh and filling, though standard compared to other spots. There was a lot of rice which if we knew that we probably would've skipped the extra bowl I ordered to eat with my lamb chops. For the somewhat premium pricing, I wish they provided fresh chopped wasabi. ~ Stuffed mushroom skewer was just okay--tasty but nothing special. I guess for mushrooms it does taste kinda like a chicken meatball which could be a good thing. Service/Ambiance (4 stars) + Attentive and thoughtful service, especially accommodating a broken foot. They let my family wait at the bar instead of standing. + Ambiance is that classic Japanese vibe, busy but comfortable. Maybe not high-end, but definitely a place that feels special--especially now that we can afford it!
