This is by far the most honest omakase place I have been to in SF. It reminds me of Japan where they let the quality of ingredients speak for itself, and not rely on exotic ingredients and fancy presentation for the wow factor. Everything is executed with precision: the sushi rice is seasoned perfec
It's a must go place if you truly appreciate Japanese omakase style dining. I've been to Jiro’s in Tokyo before (as in Jiro Dreams of Sushi), this place is easily just as good, if not better.

Some of the best, and most exotic, fish I've ever had. Our waiter was very knowledgeable and made great suggestions based on what we liked.

Sublime place! Definitely one for date night or with a a small group for a special occasion, given it is very small and more of an upmarket experience (but totally worth it!) They serve a set menu with optional matching sakes. We felt like we were back in Japan, everything from the freshness of the
After months of trying various different sushi restaurants in SF, Ijji is my favorite to date! It's most reminiscent of our visit to Japan. Each nigiri is perfectly sliced, seasoned, prepared and served. The detail seasoning to the rice and ratio to fish is perfect. It's simplicity of preparation hi
Clean and minimalist atmosphere, puts the nigiri front and center. Unassuming chefs and staff were very friendly, different than many spots these days where it feels so transactional. Ordered the omakase, the cherry salmon in season now, Japanese barricuda, and scallop, were all highlights. Will be
