Been a steady customer since Yoshi opened its doors, and still am! The food is sublime, the service attentive without being intrusive, the manager was kind and accommodating but the food remains the star! Thank you, Yoshi, for proving a restaurant opened before its time, can keep up with popular demand and offer creativity, freshness, and the most delicious sushi in the Bay Area!

We came in a group of four after a long day of work. I knew nothing about this place, so it was a lucky find. This is my best sushi experience, and I won't stop talking about it for a long time. The delicacy and subtlety of every bite were mindblowing. Everyone in our group was blown away at every course. I dream about the day I visit San Francisco again and can afford to enjoy their fantastic dinner experience again.
