Such a tasty sushi spot in the middle of north beach. If you're in the area and trying to escape some Italian food for a bit, this is a great spot to eat! Our server was hilarious and offered great recommendations. read more

Sushi On North Beach - Sushi Bars Near Me - San Francisco, California

Sushi on North Beach is a sushi restaurant that offers a great selection of fresh seafood in a very authentic Japanese restaurant. This is a great spot for a dinner with friends & family! The Nigiri was the highlight of our dinner and the Uni was to die for. All of the fish was extremely tender and full of taste. My favorite roll was the crispy spicy tuna, and the warrior role. Ended up getting seconds of a few of the selections! Suggest this spot to anyone visiting the area. read more

This place has a nice ambience and the chef seemed cool. The staff is nice and the food is decent, but it's a little pricey for what it is. The spicy tuna for example is $10 and only comes with 5 pieces. read more

Came around 8:45pm-9pm for a late dinner after volunteering and there was a lot of seating available (surprisingly it did fill up with families near 9:30-10pm). Lots of nice wood tones and the bar seating allowed enough privacy for diners to eat while not staring directly at the chefs. Ordered the North Beach roll and a vegetable tempura appetizer. The appetizer was crispy, delicious, and a lot of different veggies. The North Beach roll came with a bonus mini tuna roll (one bite) and the roll was just the perfect portion for one person. Service was quick and the servers would check up on you. I did overhear that if you have a table of 5, that they request you make a reservation since they only have one table that can accommodate a group of that size. Overall, food was delicious and came out quick. Spent about $30 on the meal is on par with other sushi places. read more

Cute sushi spot right off Little Italy! Was craving something fresh and this did not disappoint! We were seated immediately and service was 5/5 throughout the night. The restaurant closed around 9 but the waiters/waitresses were kind enough to let us stay even past then. There were many rolls to choose from, although most limited was in the salmon roll department. The roll I ordered came with mango and avocado (the mango was a first for me) but I would highly recommend it! Reasonably priced, around $20 for the roll after tax and tip read more

Sushi On North Beach - New time, happy hour from 5-6pm!! Nov 2025 - Sushi Bars Near Me - San Francisco, California

I'm giving two stars to be fair because the servers here are always very nice and cheery and I guess that counts for something... BUT THE FOOD. okay let's start here, when I first came here with my guy, we had a decent time, the sushi is nothing to write home about but it's a few blocks away from my place and it's just a nice eff it, junkfood place to go to when you want sushi but don't want to go across town for it (now I totally will, you can't mess with sushi). The first time we came the walu tasted a bit sour but we were ok with everything else. The second time? Awful. We had the sashimi combo deal and when it came, the tuna literally tasted rank, we both could not swallow it, it was that bad. Same with the hamachi, just an unbearable fishy nasty taste. Why would you send that out? We sent it back and they took the platter off our bill willingly but never again will I go to a meager sushi spot again, this is a lesson that unless you are a 4.5-5 star place I WILL NEVER EAT SUSHI FROM HERE OR A PLACE LIKE THIS AGAIN. Since then (this was this past Sunday) me and my guy have both had indigestion problems. So take this as a lesson guys that sushi needs to be sold at the highest quality. I don't mess around with old food ever and it was a shame that they served that with no qualms. It's a shame too, because the roll we ordered afterward (summer roll) was pretty tasty, my appetite was just gone by then. read more

This place actually has such a good deal during happy hour. I remember we got 3 rolls, and each was only $7! And the quality of the roll was really high. The spicy tuna roll was for sure my favorite would definitely order again! read more

Came for happy hour went right when it opened on a Monday and got seated right away. They have happy hour Monday to Friday from 5-7pm. I got the fried California roll (very interesting and a mouthful; probably won't get it again), sake avocado (pretty standard) and salmon sashimi (pretty standard). Our waiter made a lot of jokes as well and put us in a good mood! Would come back again for the happy hour! read more

Just had a spectacular dinner here tonight! I have been a regular for quite sometime but it was great to see a friendly face behind the sushi serving up dish's. Linda you have been such a great part of our experience coming in and I have to say the assortment of nigiri I had tonight was fabulous! Also everyone should order the hamachi mango shooters! (Best appetizer ever) The sake collar plate was amazing (first time I tried it). This great dinner was combined with great service. the host was very kind and welcoming, and the food came at great pace. Very proud of the new owner for the work she has done! read more

Rating: 3.5 stars We came here as a group of 7 on a Saturday night at 6:30 PM. We made a reservation beforehand so we were able to be seated right away even though all of our group was not there yet. The restaurant has a bit of an antiquated appearance but was cozy. We were able to order items off of their happy hour the first half hour we were there. The rolls that came out were ok, very rice heavy and the quality of the items was hit very impressive. A lot of the rolls also had lettuce in it which is an interesting choice. However, they came out very quickly. We got an order of the croquettes which was quite oily and its flavor was light and nice though. Their vegetable tempura had a nice assortment of items but the breading was not the best. I also ordered a nabeyaki udon. The flavor of the broth was great. There was not the best assortment of items in the udon and the egg was topped in an interesting way. Though the food was not the best, their service was amazing. Our server was so bubbly and friendly and really came by to take care of us throughout the meal. All in all, though the food did not stand out, the service was truly stellar. read more

I like going here, it's close to my house, they are friendly and I go often, but today, a little disappointed. We were totally rushed and were not told they were closing early tonight until after we were served. So, we kind of ate fast and then during conversation kept getting interrupted, so they ask if we're ok, which kind of felt like "you guys don't yet?" Ambience is chill, services is friendly but hate to be rushed. read more

Go to their happy hour!!! Such a good deal such as california roll for $5 or other sushi rolls ranging from $5-$9 as well as their drinks. The sushi was fresh and the service was impeccable. The staff was so quick every time we ordered and also super friendly! read more

Not great sushi. Not great service. Go to Ebiko instead or even Luke's local. My to go order took 35 min

Great staff and service. Comfy location in North Beach, will a very solid happy hour from 5-7pm. Affordable rolls and sake, with everything tasting fresh. If you're coming from Fidi or Soma, easy access to Sushi on North Beach from public transit. They're doing things well here and I wish them continued success. read more

Sushi On North Beach - Happy hour menu..Available M-F, 5-7pm as of 2/29/24 - Sushi Bars Near Me - San Francisco, California

This is a gem. The new owners got their stuff together and wow, I love this place. The owner spoke to me briefly and it sounds like there are some exciting ingredients coming in and a fresh injection of creativity from the counter. Incredibly welcoming and leaps ahead of the old NBS The poke is a sneaky steal. Massive cuts of beautiful fish for ~$14. If you let the chefs are the counter make you what they are loving that day- you are in for a fun night. Great beer and sake list as well. read more

Cute homey Japanese restaurant in north beach. We arrived at 7pm on a Saturday night and were lucky enough to be seated instantly but there was a steady stream of patrons lining up as we ate so I would expect a wait typically. Food itself was pretty good. I ordered a spicy dragon roll. I wasn't too hungry so it was just enough but I could also see someone needing to order more to be full. Bf ordered the Higawari Teishoku set, which came with agedashi tofu, choice of gyoza or chawanmushi (egg custard), a grilled fish, rice, sashimi, and dessert. For all of this, the price was really good. The reason for 2 stars off though was that his set was missing the sashimi, rice, and dessert. We figured it would come as a second course but after taking our dishes away, the waitress simply just brought our check. We were confused and had to ask her about the items that we never received, which ended up involving a lot of back and forth and confusion on her part and waiting on ours. Then, after they finally brought the sashimi, we had to again remind her about the dessert, which ended up taking an additional 20 minutes to come out for some reason. I know they weren't churning the ice cream up back there so I have no clue why it took so long. We considered just leaving multiple times. The whole thing soured our experience quite a bit as it involved us waiting for a really long time. Also never got the rice but figured it wasn't worth asking about. read more

It's not great but it will do. One cannot expect much wanting sushi in North Beach. The food was decent & generous portions. The service was kind and efficient. The ambiance is standard for the area. This is a good standby if you live in the area and do not want to bother to go far. read more

First time eating here. It was excellent with a nice low key atmosphere, friendly service and very good food at fair prices. It seemed like there were a lot of regulars eating there - always a good sign. I had the chirashi and the fish was very fresh and tasty. A salad and miso soup were included in my meal which I didn't expect. My wife had the bento box which had a generous portion of tempura which was light and crispy. She opted for the sashimi and grilled salmon which added a couple of dollars more but were well worth the extra cost. What a gem of a restaurant in North Beach! We definitely plan to come back! read more

Stopped by this local spot for a little lunch break from the grind! The spicy tuna was tasty and it was dope to see a sushi place provide this style of beef teriyaki! It is a little hole on the wall serving pretty good foood if I may so so myself. The food came out not too fast but not too slow either, just right. read more

The food is really good. I'm not a big sushi person but their take on the spicy tuna was the best I ever had! Got a standard bento box; generous portions. The server was outstanding. One of the warmest, nicest people I could ever hope to serve me. read more

Always fresh and good seafood. Reasonably priced lunch and happy hour prices. The people working there are friendly too.

I've walked by this place 100 times and every time thought "who goes to north beach for sushi?". Well one night we decided to try it and now I understand why people come here! The meal was great from beginning to end. From the miso soup to the dinner entree. Trying to level set with myself on how somewhere can stand out with miso soup? It's probably one of the most generic Japanese dishes and yet something about their's is different. Something they've put in it really exudes umami and sets you up to enjoy the rest of the meal. My entree was the seafood dinner. What a great deal! Even after adding the $2 to upgrade the standard salad to a seaweed salad. There was so much food; I was stuffed (and I have an above average appetite). The sashimi had that perfect buttery texture, the roll was filling and tempura was tasty. We also went off menu by our waiter's suggestion and got a green dragon roll. Wow. I will definitely be ordering that again. My best description of the flavor is that it's like the Spicy Sweet Chili Doritos. The staff was also super friendly. Our waiter was cracking jokes whenever he came around. It added to the character of the restaurant and the quality of the meal. We really enjoyed this dinner read more

BFF and I came here for lunch last week and it was my first visit but her 4th or 5th time. The current owner is retiring and it's unclear if the rest of the staff will be staying on after the end of the month. We both order the seafood bento lunch special and I couldn't believe I ate the entire thing. She sun the rice with a bowl of salad instead and said it was very good. Service was nice and unobtrusive. There's daily specials on their board. I would like to return to try their sushi and sushi rolls one day but not sure if things will change with the new ownership. read more

Not worth it..tourist trap. Overpriced and not fresh. Avoid at all cost. We went with a party of 7 and had to pay for low quality food and was charged 20% gratuity for practically nothing. I also think they paid for the review so don't believe the reviews. read more

The Dinner Sets to the rescue! Over the last few months, Sushi On North Beach has been our last minute savior! When we have no dinner plans at home (read neither one of us has bothered to shop and cook), we call Sushi On North Beach and order to go! Over this period, their Dinner Sets, namely the California Dinner and Seafood Dinner have become our favorites. To be honest, Seafood Dinner, my favorite, is a bit too much for me to eat, but I can't resist it! It comes with everything I like; Sashimi, a roll, tempura, salmon or seabass teriyaki , miso soup, rice and salad! Every time I tell myself, I am not going to eat it all, and then I do! The California Dinner comes with beef and chicken teriyaki, a roll, tempura and of course miso soup, rice and salad! It is not as big as the Seafood Dinner, but still pretty filling. They have good Sake and wine too, but I have not tried to order any to go (I am not even sure if one can). They guys working there are great and get you setup on time. So if you call and they say your order will ready in 20 minutes, get there on time or your miso will get cold! read more

Great sushi spot! Angela is amazing - everything from the food to the service is 5 stars!

The sushi is great and the service is amazing! This is our go to spot in the neighborhood. The owners and staff make you feel at home but you know you're definitely out for a special meal.

I placed my order on the phone before I arrived. Even though I got there before the time estimate they gave me, my order was ready. The servers were friendly and helpful. CA Dinner Box: Nice sized portions. Everything tasted fine, except for the beef - it was a bit tough/chewy. Tamago sushi: Eh, not that great. Tonkatsu: Very good, nice sized portion. Overall, it was a good meal. I would recommend! read more

* Takeout during SIP: call them directly at 415-788-8050 Can't believe it took me so many years and a pandemic to try out the neighborhood sushi spot. The seafood lunch combo is a great deal for the price and variety. I think the combo was built for dine-in where you can easily enjoy a little bit of everything - salmon teriyaki, mixed tempura, California roll, tuna sashimi, miso soup, salad, and rice. I appreciated the care in packaging the many items for takeout. Even the salad, which is often a throwaway few slices of iceberg lettuce elsewhere, had a nice mix of fresh veggies. No stand-outs per se but all in, a very satisfying lunch for all that you get at around $15. They also have happy hour specials extended all day during the current SIP. Call ahead to pick up and it'll be ready in like 15 minutes. read more
