Koryo is my little tucked fave sushi spot- they do not disappoint. I can come in - sit at the bar - have my salmon skin handroll and a Baked roll and be very satisfied - very easy and good. Took my dad and he got a bento box which he said was amazing ! The service is always fast and efficient. Ambiance is very nice - feels like you're in Japan with all the decor around the room - and they always have some anime movie / show playing on the tv. read more

An excellent choice for late night sushi! Koryo Sushi honestly took me by surprise. We were just going for a few rolls and some appetizers, but when we were browsing the menu, we were delighted to find omakase options. We ordered the 9-grid omakase which was only $80! It also came with 4 chef's choice nigiri, soup, and salad. That price for omakase in this economy was actually thrilling to discover. The overall fish quality very nice as well. The fish were firm and flavorful. My absolute favorite bite from the omakase was the hamachi toro. It was extremely buttery and rich. Also, the uni that they used with the amaebi was sweet and delicate. Whoever does their seafood inventory/ordering really knows what they are doing! It was a Friday night so service was a teeny bit slow, but it's only because of how packed the restaurant was! I really enjoyed all of the anime decorations. The upstairs seating area felt really cozy but bright. The downstairs seating area felt really dark. I definitely cannot wait to come back to enjoy their omakase again! read more

Chanced upon this place looking for a dinner spot. We loved everything we ordered. The rolls were delicious though small. The udon was our least favorite. We loved their tonkatsu! Service was a bit slow though it was worth the wait. Place was decent. We were placed by the door and didn't get to see the inside dine section. read more

my friend was craving sushi late and recommended we go here. we arrived after 1 am and were the only ones there. We were greeted and seated as soon as we walked in. The staff is so nice and great customer service. We ordered miso soup and the dragon roll. Ive never seen sushi come out so fast. It was really good. I definitely will be back and love that they are open late. They have a good amount of seating and also have tvs to watch. read more

First time ordering from this place. I ordered thru GrubHub on the Yelp app. It is not a high end sushi place but it is solid. The kind of place you order for girl dinner or a Netflix marathon. The fish was a tad thin but I am happy to now have a new, casual, easy, affordable sushi spot. Delivery was perfect. I tipped so the delivery person would come into the building and he did just that. They gave all the appropriate chopsticks, napkins and soy sauce. read more

Second time coming here, I truly enjoyed this space it's small and cozy great for couples or a group of friends. Service was great really kind we were a group of 5 of us and kept bringing the items we kept asking throughout our night. The price is worth the food the "too good for four" was more than enough for a group of five plus some ramen it was soooo good. It felt nice to receive some candies when we paid at the end. Definitely going to be coming back might become our new sushi spot to go to. Neighborhood is also pretty nice down the street there are even more Korean restaurant and nice space. read more

I was craving sushi late night and found this spot open on Doordash. I ordered a shrimp tempura roll and salmon roll. Both were pretty good, just a lot of rice for my liking. Pretty decent prices too. Would order again if it's late night and they're open. read more

Koryo better than Kansai idc. I love both but I appreciate late night spots. The workers I see are usually the same, I love supporting small businesses. It's a cool eccentric vibe. You can sit in the back or the bar. I personally enjoyed everything I've had so far. From the sashimi to the rolls. Everything is consistent. Additionally, it's pretty affordable. read more

All of the fish was fresh and the service was great. They're also open late which is great!

Good fresh sushi in a restaurant where the decor is a bit dated and drab. The sushi and the wait staff make up for any deficiency in ambience. read more

Late night sushi! Good enough for being open super late. We arrived around 12:40am and they said they are taking last orders though, so don't go too close to 1am. Food was pretty good except their tempura seemed really old and stale, and their scallop nigiri did not taste fresh. I loved the time they put into decorating the place though- one piece, totoro, kikis delivery service, and many more anime related decors can be found. Quite fun! read more

The service is phenomenal every time I come! Fresh fish no matter what time of day, the perfect stop after a late night bar hop. Most recently I visited and got to try a fully comp'd seared hamachi, WONDERFULLY cooked. Thanks to the staff at Koryo for the warm hospitality and friendly atmosphere! read more

Love coming here! Great service that's fast and friendly. Love the decor and homage to Haha Miyazaki with the pictures and movies. Food is amazing! Every roll ordered is delicious. Love starting off with hamachi Kama and trying new rolls each time. Just like any neighborhood in the Bay Area, you take parking with caution nowadays. But I will still come here on a late night. They're worth it. read more

This is my favorite sushi spot and y'all gotta try it if you haven't been!! Easily my favorite because of the good food, and the place being decorated in anime!! It's fairly priced but everything is worth the price and wait! If you're stuck and don't know what to order, I recommend starting with the BBQ mussels and a roll of your choice! But if you want to try a new roll, I recommend you get the Oh Sexy roll. It's wrapped in rice paper and feels so clean and light. It's what I get every time I visit, in addition to another roll! I'll definitely be back!! read more

Came for a quick birthday bite, I WOULD WRITE 10 STARS IF I COULD! Food was beyond expectations, the staff specifically Carter and Belin were so attentive and kind going above and beyond with their service , definitely coming back. Highly recommend the short rib appetizer and the jalapeño crunch rolls. And DONT FORGET THE STRAWBERRY MOCHI FOR DESSERT!!! read more

exceptional sushi rolls, large variety, the rise is just right! Also the prices are very fair. It opens late although parking can be difficult. read more

I'd agree with the 3.5 star rating for this restaurants. The prices are slightly expensive but that's about right for the post pandemic SF Bay Area. The fish was not super fresh and was kind of dry but it's acceptable. You can tell by the color because it looks kind of dull. No octopus or egg or shrimp or eel with the nigiri combo read more

Delicious sushi is served here! My sister and I loved all the rolls and maki we ordered. Huge selection of sushi, so something for everyone. Don't remember which rolls we ordered but all of them were very fresh and servings are generous. We sat at the bar since the dining room seemed a bit dingy. Service was quick. Definitely coming back and have recommended this place to others. read more

Recognition This sushi restaurant may not have a solid 4 or 4.5 star review but I'd give place a 5 star. The chefs that prepared the food needs to be recognized. I have ordered 2 rolls and a appetizer. I have not gotten any food poisoning which is a good thing. Most restaurants nowadays don't care about the healthiness of their service. Id like to take a visit one of these days to sit and dine in to see what vibe they roll with. I've had pretty good rolls and these reached my standards. I had tried the basic dragon roll, 49ers roll, & edamame. It was so good that I forgot to take a snapshot of it lol. Visit this restaurant if you want to grab something light to eat! read more

Koryo Sushi is located in a small plaza with limited parking, the inside is not as big either and they can get a bit busy at night, since they are open late night (until 1:30/2:30 AM depending on the day). The service was lacking also, maybe because they only had like 2 people waiting tables (from what I seen) and it was busy. I tried my usual, which is an order of sake nigiri and 2 orders of sake maki rolls. The nigiri was decent - a good cut of salmon. The sake maki was lacking - the salmon portions were small and a bit on the fishier side. read more

It did the job to satisfy my craving. Not too pricey and very yummy. They have a good amount of sushi selections. The ramen came very nicely packaged and fresh. I wasn't given utensils but was in needed but next time one can specify if you'd like silverware. And the soda was a bit too flat. Other than that i would order from here again read more

Koryo Sushi - Sushi and sashimi combo - Sushi Bars Near Me - Oakland, California

My go-to sushi spot in Oakland. Usually order takeout from here. Typically they're fast and efficient. Food quality definitely meets the price point. Staff is always friendly. Orders are carefully put together. Fish is always fresh. If you decide to eat in, the dining area isn't anything fancy, but the food makes up for it. They usually have seating available, even though it is a tiny restaurant. I've tried to justify eating at other sushi restaurants in the area, but always come back to Koryo! If you eat here, you know exactly what I mean. Thanks Koryo! read more

Such a vibe the food was bomb and the servers were nice. I definitely would go back I really loved how flavorful everything was. We ordered the ramen with fried chicken, tempura which was delicious, miso, beef gyoza and sushi. 10/10 read more

I have been here many times since living in the Bay Area. I really enjoy going here, especially since I am night owl and they are open very late so they are always an option if I am hungry late at night. I have always had a positive experience when dining in and ordering pick up. The service is always good, helpful and nice. I like that they have the sitting area in front of the sushi chefs. I like sitting there. They are somewhat reasonably priced. Its pretty average pricing. They have a lot of different rolls and appetizers. The restaurant is inside of a plaza with other stores and restaurants. There is not that many parking spots inside of that plaza so I would plan to possible have to park on the street or down the street and walk (a short walk usually). I will continue to go here while living out here. I would recommend this sushi restaurant to anyone looking for a solid sushi place to go to that is pretty reliable in taste read more

I live in the neighborhood and have walked past the plaza more times than I can count. After a late night, post First Friday I was on the hunt for something tasty to eat. I found my way to Koryo, sat at the bar and quickly had my order taken. Sashimi, spicy tuna roll, and a hand roll to end the night. I was lucky and received two free hot sake shots. Right place, at the right time. I'll be back. read more

Unbelievable taste sensations still receiving after I got home from Koryo Sushi. I can still taste all the delicious fish I experienced here! Koryo really took me by surprise! We were on our way to the sushi restaurant on Telegraph ave, but, we had to park a wee bit up a side street. Passing Koryo my wife suggested we try it for a change. Boy O Boy did we luck out. Not only was the fish fresh and extraordinarily tasty, the prices were very reasonable and the staff were an absolute pleasure to have wait on us. read more

Koryo Sushi - The chefs prepared a special birthday dish for my spouse. So yummy. attaboys/attagirls - Sushi Bars Near Me - Oakland, California

The best thing going for this place is that it's open late. So, if you're a little drunky and want something other than fast food to feast on, it ain't a bad choice. Other than that, this place is average at BEST. Came here with a friend after having a few drinks at a bar nearby. The interior consists of two adjoining rooms; the first room near the entrance that features a small sushi bar, and a second room that's strictly for dining. We got there just after 11:30 pm and there were only a few other people inside. The décor is pretty simple, nothing too fancy. I will point out that it was very cold inside. Service was pretty attentive and also very accommodating considering the fact that we were laughing our asses most of the time that we were there and stayed until closing time. They have a late night happy hour that offers some pretty decent discounts on some of their appetizers and select sushi rolls. As far as the food goes, I really wasn't all that impressed. We ordered the following: *HH Deep fried chicken karaage - Wasn't a fan. Had a weird taste and the consistency was way off. *Mixed tempura: The only thing here that I thoroughly enjoyed. Nice and crispy tempura battered skin and the veggies tasted great! *Rainbow roll: Just alright. It did not taste fresh at all but the portion was decent for the price. *Salmon skin hand roll: It was pretty tasty but the roll was fairly small *HH Gyoza: It was pretty good but nothing to write home about. Another thing to note is that their restroom is scary as hell. Graffiti every damn where and it wasn't the cleanest. I would only use it if it's an emergency situation. All in all, this place was just okay. It's nothing that I'd ever go out of my way for. It was nice to try it, but I'll be sticking with the competition right across the street for my late night sushi eats. read more

First time going to this place and it did not disappoint. It wasn't crowded the day I stopped by but could see it getting busy during the weekends. It's a nice comfy place. Service was friendly. I ordered our sushi to go and was served hot tea while I waited. Sushi was tasteful. Sashimi was fresh. Will be one of our go to places for sushi. read more

Pretty good I got grilled mackerel. Haven't tried the sushi yet. Not sure why this place has low reviews.

This was our Friday night spot during the early months of the pandemic. We'd first DoorDashed it and then began calling them directly and picking up the food. The quality of the fishes were great for the price. We would order a couple of rolls and the sushi combo. However recently we think the quality of the food and the fish have gone down. I also hate to note this but one of the last times we went to pick up food, while I was paying I noticed none of the sushi chefs (2) had their masks on. :-/ I hope the quality of their fish increases back to where it was and that they increase their safety precautions for the safety of their staff and their customers. read more

Good sushi but unless you're white or Asian I wouldn't recommend dining in. I suspect my wife's attire makes them uncomfortable and they're afraid for their patrons and their image. read more

If you must satisfy your late-night sushi cravings and happen to be in the neighborhood, I'd say Koryo is your best bet in the area. The food and service are both mid. The ambience inside is a bit outdated and dingy, but overall you will enjoy your food here more than you would across the street at Kansai! read more

Please save yourself and don't come here. First, our menus were missing pages. They were ripped out We were slowly served some "fresh" soju that tasted like watered vodka. We were starving so we ordered an edamame appetizer and it came AFTER our food. We were waiting for our food for about 30 mins and there was one other party with us, then two more parties came in and got their large orders before us. On the plus side, they had Ponyo playing in the background. read more
