Loving the food and excellent service.
One of the best sushi that I have. Had the omakase when I was there and it was just wow. Amazing and everything tasted fresh.

We celebrated our anniversary there and the staff made the effort to make it so special! We got the omakase and it was well worth it! Everything was so yummy especially the sardine and that hand roll!! 10/10 definitely recommend, will go back for more!
Be the first to ReplyMy boyfriend's family and I came on a Wednesday night with
My boyfriend's family and I came on a Wednesday night with reservations at 7. We were sat at a table for four adjacent to the bar seating. Service was impeccable! My boyfriend's mom had been here before, and Charles and the chefs have always accommodated to her food restrictions. Charles provided the best service and even gifted us with a spout of off the menu sake. Decor was elegant, sleek, and beautifully simple. Parking is free in a shared lot, and it was a little difficult to find because there is no big sign. We all ordered the 14 course omakase ($145 pp) and added a king salmon nigiri ($9.5). The chefs adjusted the first course for his mom to a uni topped tofu from a past omakase menu. The tofu was so delicious, well seasoned, and had almost a gelatinous texture. The uni was sweet, and it was such a memorable bite. Our first course was a sea snail salad dressed with a dashi jelly, crushed marinated tomatoes, and bamboo shoots. It was refreshing, bright, unami along with lots of contrasting textures. The second course was a seared scallop topped with yuzu foam and sat on a koji butter sauce. The scallop was seared, caramelized, and perfectly cooked, so incredibly tender that it melts in your mouth. Yuzu foam was tarte and koji butter was addictive. The third course was a black cod in a kabu dashi broth and topped with mustard green and a drop of yellow mustard. Cod was firm, flaky, and soft, broth was light, the mustard green stalk had a nice crunch, and the dollop of mustard was a nice kick. All the nigiris were so so yummy and perfectly seasoned. The fish was fresh, and its colors were so vibrant. We loved the mackerel wrap, and the squid was such a fun surprise! The last course was a soup with seaweed and oysters. It was a clear and simple broth that cleansed our palettes for dessert. For dessert, we ordered a scoop of black sesame ice cream ($9.5) and sake creme brulee ($9.5). Ice cream was dense and sesamey. The creme brulee was not very set and more liquidity but the sake flavor was prevalent. Overall, we had an incredibly great time trying out the different courses and nigiris from the omakase. The food was delicious, the kaze no mori sake was really good, and the service was top notch. Definitely a pricier restaurant, but you get what you pay for and it's worth it once a while. The omakase menu changes every 3-4 months. My boyfriend's mom is already thinking about her next visit!
Be the first to ReplyThis was outstanding.
I'm honestly left speechless. We went out for dinner for my husband's birthday and they had a little card that wished him happy birthday at the table. They also offered complimentary effervescent sake (or maybe it was champagne?) We chose items a la carte, but I definitely would be interested in the Omakasa in the future. Pretty much everything stood out. Hon Maguro, hairy crab, nodoguro, tai, shoyu ikura. We did order some fresh wasabi on the side, but I wasn't a fan of it. Same with the ginger. Something tasted off, but fortunately each dish didn't need the wasabi or ginger. We were on the fence about getting dessert, and I'm really glad we did! We actually ended up ordering another dessert because it was so good lol. I am not a huge fan of hojicha usually, but the hojicha panna cotta was unreal. They put a lot of thought into the texture of that dish. This is definitely "treat yoself" dinner, since it's definitely on the pricier side, but it is all worth it. Service is pretty good as well; Eve was our waitress and was friendly and knowledgeable and provided excellent recommendations. I ended up getting a cold sake as well, and I'm glad I did. I thought it was a little weird to drink sake out of a wine glass, but it didn't entirely detract from the experience. It's a pretty small restaurant, so it felt very intimate. The restaurant is located in a plaza with Safeway and other unassuming stores. Definitely will be back. No question.

I've ate here twice now for their omakase and highly recommend it! My first time was good, but my second time here was great. The restaurant is located in a strip mall with plenty of marking. There's no obvious sign, so it can be easy to miss. The omakase course includes three appetizers, 10 piece nigiri, and soup. I'm not sure if the appetizers are seasonal, but when I went in March, there were tsubugai (sea snail), scallop, and black cod. We also didn't sit at the bar, so I can't comment on that. All of the appetizers were seasoned well, and a great start to the night. The fish in the omakase was buttery and fresh! Honestly, everything on the omakase menu was delicious. At $145/person, the price is reasonable. The service was great. My friends and I all enjoyed the sake recommendations from the worker, and she was kind enough to give a sample cup that a few of us shared before we made a decision. It was my friend's birthday, so they also brought out a complimentary item for him. We had two people in my group who couldn't eat wasabi, and the chef was able to accommodate this; the worker also gave the non wasabi nigiri to the correct people. They've had instances where the non wasabi dishes were brought to the wrong person before at other restaurants, which then makes it become a guessing game of is there wasabi or no wasabi. The lighting in the restaurant is dim, giving it a relaxed vibe. Overall, I'll definitely be back for their omakase!
Be the first to ReplySuper challenging to find The sign os a little
Super challenging to find The sign os a little larger than a postcard That said; I can't think of a more worthy culinary quest than the "Search for this Holy Meal"! Party of three, we ordered 2 お任せ a couple of a la carte selections to share. The plan worked well, but next time I would just order three お任せ . Service was non-intrusive and efficient. Presentation was beautiful. The dining room is modest inside and designed to allow two seatings of about 90-120 minutes duration which was quite adequate. The food was absolutely marvelous from melt in your mouth toro to the savory kani kamameshi. For a delightful and very special feast for eyes and palate, this will not disappoint; not, however for the faint of wallet.,

Definitely my favorite sushi restaurant!! The Omakase experience was excellent and I highly recommend it. The food was amazing and very high quality! The service was great and the atmosphere is private with an aesthetic and minimal space.

Sushi Jin is a top-notch sushi spot in the Bay Area! We visited for our anniversary and were impressed by everything - the food quality, service, ambiance, and cleanliness. The appetizers were delicate and beautifully presented, and the sushi featured rare ingredients that surprised even me, a Japanese food enthusiast. The chefs and staff were incredibly welcoming and made our special day even more memorable. We'll definitely be back to try their seasonal offerings!
Be the first to ReplyEverything from service to the chefs was great.
Super authentic Japanese menu and decor! I'd say the omakase was really worth it! 14 course. We dined at the bar which made the experience much worth it!

Impeccable service, unique omakase starters, followed by perfect size and proportioned nigiri, and great selection of Sake. Minus tiny deduction for the menus not including a dessert. So we ordered two desserts and they were so delicious. Overall highly recommended.
Be the first to ReplyVery unique appetizers, and flavorful pieces of nigiri.
Service was outstanding. Plentiful parking in a safe area too. Check out their bathroom, they have a candle heating up some essential oils or something. I highly recommend this place, you will not be disappointed.

Great food and a lovely omakase!! It's a small spot, but definitely worth the experience. I can only speak for the omakase menu, but I believe you can dine here for a regular sushi dinner
Be the first to ReplyWow. I'm not usually one to spend $200 per person on a
Wow. I'm not usually one to spend $200 per person on a meal, but when one of my best friend's came into town and requested good sushi, I found this place on Yelp. They offer an Omakase course for $145, and the experience was excellent. You do not have to do the omakase course though, and they do have an extensive a la carte menu. They have two dinner seatings: one at 5:30PM and the other at 7:30. It's a small, simple restaurant, and everyone who dines at 5:30 does have to leave by 7:30. One of the reasons I chose this spot, is I love having wine with my meals, and not that many Japanese spots offer wine! They had white wine, as well as numerous sake options. The service was great. Everyone was friendly and introduced each of the courses to us. I liked that there were warm dishes throughout the course including a deliciously juicy black cod, along with a soup at the end. Usually when we go out for simple nigiri/chirashi, I don't necessarily like every fish, every sushi presented in omakase was just amazing. The fish was so fresh and tender. The chef lightly flavors everything for you, so you're not given any additives to season yourself. Every bite was exquisite. I wanted to get a whole tray of every fish. The only dish I didn't care for was the sea snail appetizer, mainly since it was firm in texture. It's described with fancy words that we had no idea what we were eating, until I asked during the last bite haha We ended the meal with desserts, black sesame ice cream and Hojicha Panna Cotta which were both super creamy. (not included in Omakase). My husband asked if the Omakase was enough food, and I'd say that without the dessert I wouldn't have been full, but satisfied enough from the array of flavors. Overall, great experience.
Be the first to ReplyWe had the most incredible experience dining here on
We had the most incredible experience dining here on valentines day. Excellent and super friendly service, very attentive and explained everything in detail without rushing through the menu, down to what order to eat things in, and how. The interior is just gorgeous, minimal japandi aesthetic that they just knocked out the park. The omakase was a masterpiece, easily the best we've had, including Japan and New York. Some of our favorites: The scallop in koji butter was ridiculously good, i wanted a glass of that butter to drink, and the yuzu was the best usage of foam in dining I've experienced, balanced the dish perfectly. The mackerel handroll, as well as the other mackerel nigiri. I adore mackerel so this isn't surprising, but my girlfriend is not a fan yet she loved these. The black cod - on par with nobu, just perfectly cooked and buttery. The uni tasting platter was just next level indulgent, they go hard on the portions. The santa baraba uni in particular was some of the best we've had. The wagyu nigiri with sesame oil and salt - a korean's dream. Also, their nigiri rice is just 10/10. In our opinion Sushi Jin could easily be michelin starred, and will be back soon.
Be the first to ReplyVery nice experience.
I love everything except the wagyu croquettes. Wagyu croquettes are too oily.
Be the first to ReplySimple intimate space where tables are spaced 1.
5 ft apart only. Not sure what to expect and were glad we did one omakase only while the other person ordered 2/3 of the cold and hot a la carte, which was perfect amount for two yet keeping under $300 (not including drinks). Their omakase nigiris were all seasoned, if you like that. Personally I prefer mine untouched. The timing of food was off and chawanmushi at the beginning fills you up prematurely. Table service could improve: some kept reaching across the table and tangling with us when clearing plates instead of walking to the correct side. Similarly, they would squeeze between two occupied tables to lay down and bend to talk about the new food rather than approach from the empty side. Overall best to order a la carte of both sushi and cooked dishes.
Be the first to ReplyWas able to make a reservation 2 weeks outs on a Friday
Was able to make a reservation 2 weeks outs on a Friday night! This was going to be my first omakase and I would love to go again bringing more people. The staff was amazing and friendly, especially the server Nomi. I'm not a sake person, but the two recommendations the servers made were so easy to drink and tasted really good. The food came out steadily serving the people in the same time slot as you. Every single bite was delicious; my favorite being the barracuda. If I'm ever town again I would definitely come here again for possibly the a là carte because the other items sounded just as good.
Be the first to ReplyDelicious! Great atmosphere.
We love coming here. The omekase is a wonderful experience. They have room for a small number of tables so it is a very intimate setting.
Be the first to ReplyIt was delicious.
Really good experience. We tried Chef 's Choice Nigiri andFlowering Tofu
Be the first to ReplyGreat meal and finally a great sushi spot in the Peninsula!
Great meal and finally a great sushi spot in the Peninsula! The service was outstanding- especially the hostesses. I've been to Japan nearly 15 times over the past two years and this is as close you will get to Tokyo standards. Chef Jin was great, attentive and always cared for us. The chefs behind the back work super hard and it was great to see their passion. The hostesses were very attentive and even greeted us out the door with a bow. We will be back!
Be the first to ReplyI consider myself a sushi snob.
I've eaten sushi all over the Bay Area and Japan. All the good sushi joints are run and owned by the Japanese. Sushi is an art that requires many hours/years of training. And the Japanese inner circle all go to the same Japanese owned spots. I live near this joint so I thought I'd give it a try. I noticed immediately the chefs aren't Japanese. Then I noticed the rice consistency wasn't right. Then I noticed the waiter didn't understand personal space when exchanging plates. They didn't provide soy sauce or wasabi. I asked for some and was charged. Not very classy given the price of omasake. The waiter was very pushy about ordering more and saying it was last call. We had dinner at 530pm. No class at all. Not something the Japanese would do. There was hair on a piece of my sushi. Totally ruined my experience. I give them credit for trying. But the sushi and the whole experience wasn't authentic Japanese for me. And class is something they don't have. Not coming back.
Be the first to ReplyOver all the fish quality is super good.
Speciall Kampachi, after 14-day aging and the texture is totally different. We don't like the Omakasa but because their nigiri rice just not that great! We prefer to order whatever we like from the menu.
Be the first to ReplyOverall the food is good.
They have good quality fish. The cut I think can be better. I think it's important to mentioned to the customer what is omakase etiquettes. When we went to eat there is bunch of friends that is sooo loud in the bar. Making it our dinner not as enjoyable

The chef The food The Atmosphere The music But the chef & food . We did Omakase style, everything we got along with a few recommendations that weren't on the menu tasted great. The chef's apprentice (servers) were also helpful, informative, and very sweet and added a nice touch to an already inviting interaction. Definitely recommend people come and allow the experience to flow.
Be the first to ReplyAmazing experience.
Each course was a perfect bite. Small, cozy atmosphere. Everyone was available whether it was for a la carte selection or saké refresher. Nomi and Jenny were wonderful and so knowledgeable about the sake pairings and best ways to enjoy each course. Kingsley, I was told, prepared some or most of our courses and I must say he did a wonderful job. No complaints on any of the courses; each course was unique and brought a great flavor along with it. I will be back very soon to experience this again. Thank you for the great evening!
