I was in the mood for sushi and this was near the cafe that I was at, so I thought it would be a good idea to come here before I return home. The service was very friendly and welcoming, letting me know the rocket system worked when they realized it was my first time. There was a relatively calm yet crowded ambiance, with most of the tables being occupied except for the one that was conveniently closest to the door. I think there's also outdoor seating, but the rocket doesn't go all the way there so I assume the system for outdoor seating either works the same as a regular restaurant or it's just public seating. I decided to get the Cherry Blossom sushi, which was a bit of a wait. I don't recall how long but every now and then I could hear the sounds of the rocket belt and this likely didn't help with the wait. The sushi itself was pretty good, and I left feeling fulfilled. Overall a pleasant experience, I wouldn't mind returning if someone was interested in getting sushi in SF. read more

Rocket Sushi - Cherry Blossom - Sushi Bars Near Me - San Francisco, California

My son chose this restaurant and it was delightful! I thought it was going to be like any conveyor belt sushi place, but when we walked in, I didn't see the belt. After we were seated and the server explained that we just order at our table on a small kiosk, and our food will arrive at our table. The food was quite good and the ROCKET method of serving was super-creative and much more sanitary! Cute place! read more

sushi comes in rockets which is pretty neat! the self serve ipad is also very convenient

Looking for conveyor belt sushi and I found this one online. Easy to order on tablet and fun to watch NASA rockets conveyor belt to deliver my food. My tonkatsu ramen was steaming hot! Severs are friendly with my needs and refill my drinks. I came in at lunch and it's not busy but I can see they have togo delivery orders all the time. They have music and tv playing. It's pretty chill here. Servers don't bother us all the time which I like. Don't feel like being rushed to order or anything. Food are delicious and sushi are fresh. Sushi got devoured before taking pictures. XD Will come back next time read more

I ordered delivery. The food was mediocre but besides the point they made the delivery person wait over an hour on 2 sushi rolls and a tempura shrimp order. They did not update him until i called and told him to give them the phone. They do not answer their own phone. This was just awful and frankly reeked of racism too. read more

Could not eat my Shoyu Ramen The broth had a weird taste and smell like bad quality meat- and the noodles were a little slimy/too slippery: So I ordered a veggie sushi roll- that was ok 1 star for food Adding 1 star for ambiance and service Im sure if I had complained I could have returned the ramen but I didn't feel Like a confrontation today and ordered a roll instead. read more

Came here with family during the holidays. Happy to see some decorations out with Xmas tree and gingerbread man. Easy to order from tablet on table, food comes pretty fast on conveyor belt with NASA rockets. We ordered more hot food today as it's pretty cold in the city and they are pretty food. The sushi rolls are fresh and delicious. Servers asked if it's our first time when here and offered drinks and refill during stay. Will come back next time when we are in the city. read more

We got takeout and the food was well packaged. The restaurant looked busy for both pick up orders and sit down dining on a Sunday night, so definitely a louder environment. Rocket Sushi Combo - Large slices of fish for both the nigiri and sashimi. The rice with the tuna roll was a bit dry. Chirashi - Escolar Tuna and Salmon were both buttery and slices were thick. Vinegary rice was also good. Golden Spicy Salmon Roll - It's great if you like saucy rolls. It's a great takeout option. read more

This place is hands down me and my partner's go to spot. The staff is always super nice and attentive, and the sashimi and nigiri are cut THICK and fresh. So delicious - we seriously love it here! read more

I took my kid thinking it would be pure schtick. Turns out, it's great sushi at a not crazy price. The rockets are fun, but we'd go back even without them. read more

Solid rolls at a convenient location in central SF. I tried a few rolls and sashimi here, which were all pretty fresh and tasty. Ordering on the tablet was convenient, and our food came out on a rocket. There are a lot of large booths at this location, so it would be well-suited for a group meal. We came on a weekend, and it was not crowded for lunch. I would come again to satisfy the sushi craving! I'm not really sure how I feel about the "order on a tablet and have your food delivered to you by a rocket/robot" model though. As a result, you don't really have a chance to interact with waiters, and the novelty does wear off. read more

fast self service, clean space, and yummy options! was recommended to come here by a friend after they came here with family. Excited to return! read more

This is a place with minimal human interaction where you order your food from a tablet, and the plates will zoom right to you like a train! Most of the menu consisted of maki, so I didn't have much expectations for an authentic Japanese experience. However, the pleasant surprise was how huge all the food portions were I ordered 3 different types of rolls and regretted not just ordering 2 because of how big the rolls were! The disappointing parts were the big globs of mayo on top of Romeo and Juliet that completely masks the flavor of the scallop, and how the sushi combo had the exact same cuts of fish for the nigiri and sashimi pieces. Overall, this is a solid spot if you're craving sushi on a budget but you wanna come out feeling stuffed read more

Sushi here was pretty good. Service was average, leaning towards bad. We enjoyed our experience until a baby roach came towards us on the conveyer belt from the direction of the kitchen. That ruined the appetite of everyone in my party of 3 and we struggled to finish our plates. When we informed the staff, we were offered free soft drinks as compensation. After us insisting, they offered us a small discount off the meal. I didn't notice them take action to remove the bug. Overall it was a below average experience that didn't give me confidence. I'd go somewhere else next time. read more

Service here was very friendly and very quick! This was my first time and the rockets that zip to and from each table with tasty sushi on top are amazing! We ordered Miso soup, Seaweed salad, Chicken karaage, Romeo and Juliet Roll, Hamachi roll, and a Rock and Roll roll. Everything was so fresh and delicious, and we caught the buy $50 and get a sake for $1 deal, talk about a win! read more

The highlight of this unique sushi spot is definitely the rocket conveyor belt that delivers your sushi right to your table. One of the standout features was the interactive ordering system. You can place your order on a tablet, and within minutes, your sushi zooms over on the rocket conveyor belt. It's a fun and efficient way to enjoy your meal. Food is great and it's a fun time! read more

Updated review: Had the best time here as always! The food is always amazing. If you've never had sushi brought to your table via a rocket, you haven't lived. You order on the tablet and it gets to you by rocket. The service here is also amazing! Started with some decaf team and spicy edamame. The spicy edamame is really tasty and flavorful but it is on the spicier side. For the rolls, we went with Philly roll, 49ers roll and the XXX roll. My favorite was definitely the 49ers roll. It was really simple but super flavorful. Ended the night with some mango mochi and it was amazing perfect! Highly recommend this place. read more

This place is awesome! My husband and I have been twice within the past 6 months and each time we had a great time. The fish is fresh and the service is attentive. When you're seated your server takes your drink order and then you place your food order via tablet at the table. The pictures and description of the rolls, etc. is very helpful. If you have food allergies like I do, talk to the server when you are seated and they will help you navigate the menu. You can reorder drinks from the tablet as well, and get a refill on ginger and wasabi. They usually have a happy hour special. I think we got a large bottle of sake for free because we ordered more than $50. The food is delivered to your table by a rocket! It comes out on rails from the kitchen and zooms right to your tableside. Take the plate off the rocket and it zooms back to the kitchen. Such a hoot! read more

The service was great here! The ambiance was nice too and we were seated right away for Saturday night at dinner time. The food was a little disappointing despite the high ratings. The raw salmon didn't have much flavor and the rice to fish ratio wasn't that good for the rolls. The rice was also a bit mushy. Maybe we ordered the wrong things. read more

Convenient seating, extremely fast service, yummy sushi! Spot is pretty busy with online orders and is pretty fast at delivering food. However, because the service was so fast sometimes it felt like we were a bit rushed eating. The rockets were so cute delivering the sushi, but this is different from conveyor belt sushi where you order on an ipad instead of having continuous rounds of sushi flowing read more

Tho place has cockroaches one one walking on my sons hat and across the table. My son jumped up and started saying cockroach and the people working was saying please be quiet he didn't even get to eat his food. This is so disgusting do not eat at this place read more

I've ridden my bike or walked by Rocket Sushi without going in for a while, yet have been there twice in the past few months--once for takeout, and once for dine-in. When I dined-in, it was pretty busy given they were closing in ~30 minutes! Their menu is so extensive, it's almost intimidating! They offer a lot and all that I've had has been delicious. I liked the Cherry Blossom roll, Romeo and Juliet Special Roll, and Caterpillar Special Roll. Family Affair Special Roll was the weakest but still good. Fish is fresh and portions are hefty. If you dine-in, you can order on a tablet and dishes are delivered via rocket on the side. Very cool, very fun, would be enjoyed by kids as well as people of all ages! Service is attentive--my hot tea was refilled quickly and often without me needing to say anything! read more

Hands down my favorite place to order take out from. A random place I landed on but so glad I did. From California rolls to chirashi bowls no one has really done it better for takeout than Rocket. read more

Choo choo! All aboard, last stop... my mouth. A wonderful experience and the Sushi Train™ was a novel mode of service in the moving sushi experience. That said, the prices are crazier than an Amtrak ticket. read more

Love rocket sushi man my go-to spot for sushi, chef roll is hella good order that and chirashi if you're by yourself

Love Rocket Sushi! Has been my go-to sushi spot since I moved to SF. One of my favorite rolls is the Romeo and Juliet

In San Francisco's sushi scene, Rocket Sushi reigns supreme. Rolls so tasty, quick, and neat, Zooming rockets bring the treat. Lady Gaga fills the air, "Rah-rah-ah-ah-ah"--everywhere! Chopsticks dancing, stomachs swoon, Nigiri grooving to the tune. Delicious bites, a funky show, Was it dinner or disco? Who's to know? One thing's certain, bold and true: Rocket Sushi--we love you! read more

Fish Quality: 4 out of 5 Service : 3 out of 5 Ambience: 4.5 out of 5 Rolls: 3 out of 5 Rainbow Roll: Shouldn't come with Eel Sauce, which drowns out the flavor. It isn't advertised with eel sauce, 4 out of 8 pieces had a tolerable drizzle, the other rolls were rather thick beyond normal bite size, so slightly much, for texture purposes, although quality is present :) read more

My boyfriend found Rocket Sushi for my birthday based on the great Yelp reviews. I am now obsessed. The fish was some of the freshest and most delectable I've ever had, specifically the tuna. The service was so sweet and fast! The food came out so quickly and it arrives to your table on the fun little boat thing. The restaurant is pretty big too, so it would be good for larger parties. read more

Birthday dinner date ! So birthday girl wanted sushi and came across this spot. We read the reviews and sounded pretty good. We arrived around 8 and were seated right away just the two of us. We sat ordered some drinks and explored the menu on the iPad at the table. Plenty of great options so many items I wanted to try! You order up to 4 items at a time and when it does come to the table it's is being served from a robot rocket ship that travels along this rail way with your food neatly placed on top! It was so awesome to see it fly in with the food! Definitely a cool part of this place. Food was very good nice and very fresh! If you love a good sushi spot you should try this place. Thank you to the very helpful staff and chefs that made our food thank you! read more

Probably hands down my favorite sushi spot in SF! From the moment we walked in we were greeted it with such great hospitality, the workers were very sweet. I like the layout of the restaurant and it's nice and bright. You are able to order your food from the tablet at your table and the food comes to you on a rocket. It makes ordering so much fun. All of the rolls I tried were amazing. My absolute favorite one was the chef special roll with wagyu on top. It was something I've never tasted before and left me wanting more. I ordered two of them and still dream about them since. This place definitely takes the lead at my top 5 sushi restaurants. Will be back again and again! read more

I just looked for a random sushi place with ramen and we decided to go here. We were able to get seated quickly. This place is cool since you order on a tablet and a train brings you the food. The waitress bringing drinks was great too and the prices themselves for the drinks were not bad either. I got a California and Philadelphia roll and they were both amazing. Also, I tried the ramen that was just ok. I would definitely go back for the sushi. read more
