High quality but overpriced. Would rather go to their sister restaurant Live Sushi (unless you compare it to Omakase which is next door lol then it’s not expensive 😅)
Tried the wagyu & snow crab roll (good but not wow), poki salad (too salty), agedashi tofu (wish it was more crispy), chutoro nigiri (amazing but pricey) and chirashi bowl (overpriced for the portion).
Would go to either omakase or a more casual place, Okane sits awkwardly in the middle and feels like a place to go when people can’t get a reservation next door lol
Food was excellent 5/5 really good toro quality and nice sushi rolls but getting a lower grade because service was rushed and not exxellent… waiters staring at you while you taste the wine. I had 3 different sushis 2 glass of wine in maximum 1:15
What a sushi experience. As a NYer, I have my fair share of amazing sushi spots, Okane is right up there with them. This cozy, intimate, yet lively spot was perfect. Appetizers were really good, went with the carpaccio and beef skewers. Then we hammered down 5 sushi rolls. Honestly, they were all fantastic. Attention to detail is immaculate, and the service was top notch. Looking for sushi in San Fran, go here you will not be disappointed.
Two of us dined in for dinner.
Delicious sushi overall and orders arrived on time for the most part.
Nori was slightly chewy than I woul've liked ( not saying it was soggy. Just a bit too chewy ). And our order of miso soup never arrived until we finished our meal. Other than that, was very satisfied with the place :)

Came here for dinner and sat inside. Service was great and staff wore masks all the time!
Sushi was excellent. 🐟 tasted very fresh. My favorite was the special rolls. I usually ask for their recommendations and choose a few from the list.
The restaurant also has some hard to find Japanese 🍻. Overall, a great place for very tasty 🍣👍.
The sushi is delicious!! Been to a ton of well known sushi and omakase spots and we really enjoyed every roll we ordered. Fish is good quality, flavours are good, and the staff were great. Toro was delicious especially. I would not recommend the quail eggs.
We went on a Wednesday night and the place was almost empty (prob also from APEC). Would totally recommend this spot.
If you happened not able to book michelin stars omakase next door, this place will decently satisfy you!
Good variety of japanese fish, one of greatest uni I ever had (even compared to japanese spots in Tokyo)
Definitely recommended for some good sushi!
Reserve the 4:30 pm spot on Sunday. You won’t regret free street parking and no crowds outside when you walk in :)
10/10 would recommend the Omakase menu. It was about $500 for three people including drinks and alcohol.
$95 Omakase price point. 7 courses including 1 spinach appetizer, 2 oysters, 4 pieces sashimi, 8 nigiril sushi, 1 snow crab steam eggs and 1 green tea cheesecake. The overall experience was good, especially customer service was top. Wish the portion could be bigger🤞
Really great dining experience. Everything was delicious and uniquely prepared. The amberjack was the best fish I have ever tasted. The server was so friendly and helpful and joined in our jokes. Place is cozy and intimate but still good for groups or a date. We tried almost everything on the menu and are planning to go back!
Be sure to ask questions otherwise they will automatically opt for the most expensive option dish for you. Like the oysters I ordered, they didn't verify if I wanted the ones with uni and ikura on it or not. Otherwise, foods are great and service is okay but could be better considering the 4 of us, 1 is a 6 year old kid spent $427 on just dinner
Food and service were fantastic. You can definitely taste the quality of the fish and ingredients. Had multiple rolls and a few appetizers which were all great. Super friendly waitstaff that we’re extremely accommodating and knowledgeable.
Incredible food, good service and a very unique sake selection. The best sushi experience I've had anywhere outside Japan. I actually thanked the chefs with a small tear in my eye 🙈
We will visit Okane everytime we're in SF.
Still one of the Japanese favs in SF. If you’re looking for some real good nigiri, or Japanese specialties in general, Okane is an awesome choice.
Make ressies if you can. They do get packed. Some groups looked a little bothered that they had to share a communal table. It’s easy. Call them or book it online.
As far as price point, it’s cheaper than their sister restaurant, Omakase, next door. They share the same bathroom, but are quite diff vibes. We basically tried every seasonal nigiri option, Okane handroll, and tried a few apps. The edamame was a bit overcooked. The staff was a little tough to get their attention at times. But overall, still a good experience. 4 stars.
Great sushi. Adorable location. Excellent service . We really enjoyed our lunch. We had the Cobra on their specials menu, the Harajuku and the Akihabara. All were excellent
high quality sushi that comes with a high price tag! be prepared to pay $80+/pp but definitely worth the splurge for special occasions.
nigiri: overall, all pieces were delicious but the o-toro and sake toro were my favorites - so creamy. amaebi, kinmedai (snapper) and kamasu (barracuda) we’re also good but would pass next time.
ginza roll: soo good! i love any roll with torched fish on top and the little kick from the jalapeño balanced the creaminess
shinjuku roll: also tasty with the waygu smokiness highlighting the roll
