dont let the location or building appearance fool you. the quality and prices is unmatched anywhere

You get what you pay for. It's super affordable and sushi/sashimi is decent. It's always so crowded now so we almost always just order to go to save time. read more

Since moving from SF I've been searching for a great, cheap, but quality spot and this is it. The variety of rolls is overwhelming. Know what you want before you go since you order first. The ambiance is nothing special. read more

Only okay sushi for the price. I had a fine experience when I went my first time and ordered take out so I thought it would be fine to come back with my little brother. We came on a Sunday night and it was a little busy but the service was so terribly SLOW. We waited for 50 MINS for only 3 rolls to go!!.. Don't think we'll be coming back again read more

The quality of the sushi rolls is what you pay for. It's inexpensive so its good but not great. The rolls are huge and very filling. There is a lot of options. read more

I believe in trying anything twice... But I won't be doing that for this place. The tempura was bland. The vegetables in the udon was old and seem rotten, and my escolar tasted old too (had to spit it out) read more

cant find a better place came here for years best sushi around defenite go to period. read more

I still think that for the price this place is decent...but full disclosure...I got the rainbow roll, and the sashimi on the roll was defrosted, and didn't have much flavor. the crab in the California roll was very sweet. TheRainbow roll that I just had Friday at Coach sushi was so much better. read more

This place is good for exactly what me and my buds go here for, good sushi and beer at a cheap price! this place was not the type of place to go to if you want to be waited on and have that five star service. They are there to offer good food at a good price. The rolls are delicious and again cheap! What I would spend here is easily 25% less than any other sushi place. Yeah, they have mexicans making the food, who cares and grow up! People act like the chefs and cooks at other restaurants are exactly from the type of restaurants ethnicity. Im willing to bet that the cooks at Olive Garden are mainly mexican but you'll still eat the food and find it delicious! If anything more power to the brothers and sister for expanding their horizons and learning another culture! read more

I liked this place. It's so cheap. We got so much for under 30 bucks! The lion king roll tasted like there was tuna instead of salmon on top? Idk, maybe we were trippin. What would keep me coming back is the thick cuts of sashimi for 8 bucks. read more

Ever heard of the saying "Don't judge a book by its cover"? This place serves good sushi for a pretty decent price! It's my go to place whenever I crave Japanese food. Try their Bay island read more

Most of the chicken was not cooked and the whole meal was gross. Must be new owners or different people manage it.

My daughter and her friends turned me on to this small, casual sushi spot. Having tried it several times now, I'm a big fan. Located in a converted "fast food" joint, the ambiance is nothing to write home about. But the humble surroundings belie the tasty treats hidden within. The menu is extensive, with well over a hundred different selections, including a hundred or so very inventive and inexpensive rolls. You order at a counter, and then your selections are delivered to your table. Water is self-serve, and there's a drink case filled with selections, including export versions of Ramune soda. If you've never tried Ramune soda, it's worth doing so just to experience the unique sealing system, with the ball in the top that you press down to open. The versions sold here are only "ok" in my opinion -- but then I first encountered this classic Japanese soda at the top of a hill outside a temple in Japan during a recordbreaking heatwave, when I was so parched and overheated that anything remotely wet would have seemed like divine nectar. So it's not a fair comparison, and I suggest you try some just for the fun of it (I like the green ones). But I digress... The portions at Fat Fish are generous, especially for the price. My out-of-town visitor the other day walked up to the counter and immediately over-ordered, getting a tempura appetizer, miso soup, and two rolls. He wondered why I only ordered one roll and a salad. After the food arrived, he understood! My housemates were thrilled to take up the slack, when we brought the leftovers home. The tempura was crunchy and not too greasy, with a nice selection of vegetables. I'll be getting that again. The rolls, as mentioned, are quite generous, with plenty of white (not pink!) pickled ginger alongside. The Futomaki was full of fresh ingredients, and I repeated my favorite order of a 49er roll, which includes salmon and a thin slice of lemon over a CA roll. I've tried the 49er roll elsewhere, but been disappointed. I'm never disappointed here by the very thin, very fresh and juicy lemon slices over the fresh salmon. Yum. (And now I'm getting hungry!) Our whole order -- 3 large rolls, salad, miso, and tempura, came to less than $40, and fed more than 3 people quite adequately. If you're jonesing for a sushi fix in San Leandro, and don't have much cash in your pocket, head on over to Fat Fish. If you don't like the ambiance, you can always take it home, or to a nearby park (there's one at the West end of the cross street of the corner it's on.) Highly recommended! read more

The food was quite cheap considering it to be sushi, however the quality and taste was not Grade A quality it was more of a solid B+ the portion size was fair, their Bentos were okay I had the teriyaki salmon with white fish katsu, which came with a salad, side of rice, and miso soup, the miso soup however was too salty, and one time the white fish katsu was over fried and thus burnt and dried, however I also had their sushi I tried the caterpillar roll and spider roll they were both not bad, since I enjoyed unagi more i recommend the caterpillar roll which had cucumber, imitation crab meat, Unagi, and lots of avocado, the service is good, and if you have a girlfriend that loves sushi and want to have a happy wallet I would recommend this place, note that dinner time it can be kind of crowded, and parking is limited. read more

Since we have moved to the area, this is our go to restaurant. You can find a cheap sushi and beyond. It's a fast food style that you can order at the counter and go find your seat. I think this restaurant operates by Non-Japanese. The interior is kind of awkward and no japanese mixture. Please be sure taking your jacket off when you want to dine in. Otherwise, the smell will stick with you all day long. read more

Very reasonable price to eat sushi when you don't want to spend too much money or just simply craving for some sushi or undons. Sushi itself is nice and it taste fresh whereas the deluxe bento is the most value menu in the whole menu. Overall, this is a nice place to escape reality for couple of hours. read more

I go and eat here like twice a week, and I just love this place so much! Sushis are very delicious especially the baked ones! Prices are decent too! So much props to this sushi bar. read more

So for the price not bad. I'm just gonna say this generally all their employees are of Latin descent. I ain't mad, I'm Mexican and black. When I first came their rolls were loosely wrapped and the skill and technique with which they prepared their sushi left much to be desired. Over time they improved, customer service is lacking, food is still in the you get what you paid for arena but not bad. I'm unsure if the language barrier causes the holes in service, professionalism and quality but ...you get what you pay for. Oh yes their boss(asian)sits at the front door on computer and just does...work? I dunno. Occasionally pops up to ring orders... I go here for cheap quick sushi fix. Don't usually dine in because it doesn't enhance the experience. I write this keeping it real , deuces. read more

Went here on someone else's recommendation. Small, small, and dark and dingy. We're self proclaimed sushi-snobs so not coming back here.

The best sushi I've had. The staff isn't so happy or look a bit mean but who wouldn't have a funky face smell if you work around raw fish all the time. Affordable lunch boxes and always busy! Call 20 minutes before picking up! read more

Great sushi for a good price, I love the atmosphere... When I first went the outside looked questionable but after trying it I was amazed... The only thing is it's a bit slow but worth the wait... I recommend the pink lady.... read more

If you are looking for sushi that is cheap and tasty, this is the spot! The portions and prices are decent. I've been coming here every time I crave for sushi and haven't been disappointed. read more

I always go here whenever we crave sushi, but the last couple of visits the sushi has been poorly made. The taste was the same, but the sushi breaks down and it all falls apart. Sooo time to find a new sushi place. read more

Ordered a simple sushi order. Used Door dash. Delivery person did not deliver. Called restaurant and they said that it was not their problem. Did not like the attitude or the service. read more

My disclaimer. For the price. My husband and I have been coming to this restaurant from the beginning. I have to admit, my husband, who doesn't like Sushi found them first, and raved about their food and prices, so I HAD to try them out. They were GREAT! Yes, for a sushi place, very reasonable prices. Sometimes the music video's can get a little loud, but you just ask them to turn them down if it bothers you. We've come to like them and think they are hilarious to watch. Japanese youth culture! I have paid like a third and twice as much and sure, had what some people would term "better" stereotypical Japanese ambience - the sedate Japanese music with gesha dressed woman and the like. But, I think this is a difference category of stereotypical Japanese ambience. Japanese youth culture! So what can someone who doesn't like the raw fish thing? Teriyaki chicken! Edamame! and Tempura! One of my personal favorites is the Seaweed Salad. The first time I went there it was REALLY spicy, but they've gotten the message, and it is just plain good now. Not all the rolls or Sushi are raw fish based either, just ask: broiled eel, and by the way, when shrimp is pink/reddish like, that it IS cooked. JUST ASK! They are more than willing to tell you! And, if you don't see what you want, ask about that! LIke if you want a dish has certain items in it. They've pointed out items on the menu that I hadn't noticed; and made suggestions. I found a couple new items (for me) to try, just watching them prepare food. I go by looks for my choices, so the picture menu is quite handy for me. They do have a regular written menu by the register, FYI. I have to say that I asked the owner about the 9/18/2010 review. The woman had been unaware of the Cal law. He spoke to her, his wife. (She spoke limited English.) He was very concerned and apologetic. She now knows service animals are perfectly okay to be inside. read more

I use to really like this place until their worker spilled soy sauce on me and then just laughed about it.

My sister and I decided to try this place out after a friend of ours recommended it to us, needless to say we'll no longer be friends after this. This place is pay before you order, including tip (now I know why) and you seat yourself and wait for your order. My sister and I ordered a shrimp tempura roll and instead received shrimp tempura. After I nicely went up to the register and asked for my correct order the lady says "you ordered tempura, next time order the shrimp tempura ROLL. After I explained to her that I did she just kept saying it over and over. Even if I was wrong you don't need to scold a customer continuously after the point as been made. I get it, say shrimp tempura roll next time (even though I did!). Then as I was sitting I asked her how long it might be, and she said it'll take some time but next time I should order the shrimp tempura ROLL. Again?!?! Really?!?! I might have believed I was wrong if it hadn't been for the fact that my sister also ordered an item that we never received. Aside from the rude service the food left something to be desired. All our rolls were stuffed with imitation crab meat (even the SHRIMP TEMPURA ROLL!) as well as our baked scallop roll that was drenched in sauce. If you're gonna be rude at least have good enough food to back it up. That was our first and last time going there, save your money and go somewhere the people are kind and make good food. read more

Excellent small time local sushi place. The rolls are huge and taste excellent. The prices are cheap. Most rolls are under $7. The venue is an old taco shop, very homey. Sapporro Beer on draft is $2. Amazing value for your money. Best sushi I've had in the East Bay and just as good as most places in SF. read more

Place is not bad especially if you don't want to spend so much cus you know sushi food is pricey, but you're craving sushi. It's definitely better than buying sushi at Safeway or gas station sushi. I would always order to go and eat at home. Place is not clean and bathroom is dirty. That's why I eat at home. Workers are pretty friendly, never had any problems. The BEST thing about it for us is its only a couple of blocks away. read more

Me and my girl went by this place to get a chicken teriyaki bowl to go and we unfortunately decided to get sashimi as well... I don't like to write bad reviews or reviews in general, but i feel like I should let someone else know...I took one bite of the salmon and I got a foul taste of chemicals in my mouth. The tuna had a sour taste and no sign of freshness at all. I wonder how long they keep their fish before serving. The only thing that was half way decent was the chicken teriyaki bowl. The chicken was dry and overcooked. I might get it again if they put more teriyaki sauce on it and cooked the chicken just a little less. If you want better sushi or fish, just drive down the street a little more to Angry Fish... read more

Yikes. I was in the area and thought of dropping by since a friend recommended it. Never again. Rolls were soggy, so much rice vs actual fish and lastly my tuna smelled. Stopped eating and left... Oh, customer service non existing.... read more

Not all Sushi you have to pay through your nose to get high class quality and taste. This is one place which no doubt is already popular - we stood in line before the restaurant even started to take orders. Its fast food Sushi, quick service, excellent taste and unbelievable price. I would go there again if I am in the neighborhood or craving for some instant Sushi. Worthy of five stars. read more

Good sushi. Reasonably priced menu. Not a lot of seating. I prefer to take my food to go. One of the only complaints that I have is that you have to ask for your credit card receipt. I don't like that and I don't trust it. They always want to give you your order receipt. They look at me crazy when I ask for it. Lol. I need to make sure I'm not being charged extra. read more

We went there 3/22/2014, ~2:30pm. We went in, the restaurant was empty except for one table. Stood there waiting to get a table, saw 2 mexican waitresses and 2 mexican chefs. The 2 chefs were watching the overhead TV, they saw us, but decided to continue to watch TV. The 2 waitresses were talking and smiling to each other. We had eye contact, but they also decided to continue standing there looking sloppy and ignoring us. We were there for 1 minute and 20 seconds. Did not have a chance to try the food, did not get any service. No matter how good your food is, this is unacceptable. To this restaurant owner: Congratulation on hiring the best waitresses and chefs, and I hope your business will success with the great service! read more

This place may not look like much from the outside or the inside for that matter, but this place is truly a hidden gem. This is the best priced sushi ever. The fish is very fresh and they have a huge variety or rolls. This place is a must try read more

extensive sushi menu, prices fair, looking for the real deal it's not here but an ok place to get your sushi fix.

This place is not all that clean the tables and floor was disgusting. I ordered the lion king and it was bland and rice feel apart immediately. Really bad customer service was not really greeted gave me dirty looks. They do not offer more tea or anything. I recommend the crunchy tempura it's delicious. read more

The food is pretty good for the price, but their staff is rude. My boyfriend and I went in to order and the girl who took my order not only messed it up, but snatched my boyfriend's card when he asked her if he was supposed to insert his chip or not. Once we sat at our table, the same girl who rung us up for our food also served us. She slammed my plate of sushi on the table and that's when I started getting really irritated. I understand that sometimes we don't enjoy our jobs, but we did nothing to upset her. It makes me sad that one of my favorite places is starting to fall off due to the way some employees treat their customers. I'll probably just doordash next time. read more

Sushi rolls are big but not really authentic Japanese. You order and pay at the counter first. I had better quality, but the price is not bad at all for sushi. still, not real Japanese but definitely worth a quick craving. read more

Tiny place, order at the counter and then they bring it to you. It's kind of small and doesn't stick out; I probably would have never gone in had I not gone with friends who frequented it. It was my first time having a 49er roll and I fell in love at first bite. Lion King roll is always a good choice also and recently I tried the Crispy Alaskan and it was realllly good. It's a fried roll with salmon, cream cheese, and a tasty orange sauce on the inside. Parking lot is kind of small but there is some street parking on E14th or further behind the restaurant. read more
