I'm a fan of their food! Super fresh fish for a decent price. Wonderful food presentation with an efficient takeout experience. Check out their website for additional details on the menu and place an order during their business hours. They also have poke bowls, ramen, nigiri, sashimi, omakase nigiri, and more. https://sushichefsf.com/menu/40152863 Don't be fooled by the amount of food that you see. The sushi rolls are quite filling. Kamikaze Roll (asparagus, spicy tuna, albacore) $16.95 - Delicious, fresh fish! I really liked the combination of flavors here. A5 Wagyu Roll $25.95 - More expensive than the other rolls, but every bite was satisfying. Eat this right away for the best taste. Sunflowers Roll (mango, eel, crab, salmon) $16.95 - My favorite! This roll was perfect in every way. The sauce, filling, flavor, texture, and size of the roll made me feel so happy. It just melted in my mouth. Agedashi Tofu $10.95 - Great portion size with lots of tofu. Miso Soup $2.50 - Standard miso soup, slightly on the salty side. Side note: Their wasabi is really good. :) read more

So I've only had this place for take out but it does not miss! My only gripe is that it is a little pricey, but I guess it's San Francisco so what can ya do. No more pricey than Domo near me. All the rolls here are great - the lion king, dragon, 49er, etc. They serve up interesting and creative flavors that include things like mango in a spicy roll. And the preparation is always beautiful! Def a great find, wish it was closer to where we live! read more

Cute small sit down sushi place along Columbus. I saw there was places to reserve but we walked in at around 7:45pm on a Friday night and there was only two other parties there, one at the sushi bar and the other at another table. The set up is very cute and we ordered some rolls and a ramen, a bit pricey for my liking, but not bad. They have a decent omakase and sushi deal which price wise I haven't seen a decent one around the area. I got the duck breast ramen and the broth was so delicious and the four pieces of duck were nice and juicy. My partner got the lion king roll which some of the rice got stuck to the foil since it was baked but otherwise good. The spicy tuna roll was also not too spicy and a classic. We also got pork gyoza which were nice and crispy and fresh. Would def come again on a date night! read more

Happened to be in the neighborhood, so I stopped in. Absolutely delicious sushi! I enjoyed two rolls, which were absolutely perfect. I can't wait to come back to try the chef's sampler for Sashimi. Wagu is available, and it looked wonderful. I can't wait to return to try it. Thank you Sushi Chef! read more

Went here 2 times for lunch, the first time I ate 2 rolls there and it was delicious I was alright. But the second time I ordered takeout and omakase (10 pc nigiri) was in the order. I ate it and had food poisoning. 3 hours after I ate it l started to feel really sick and had diarrhea and vomited. After this, I threw away the whole order of sushi afraid that the other sashimi and rolls were also contaminated. After this bad experience, I think I will not come here again. read more

First meal in San Francisco and it was incredible! Stumbled upon this spot while walking around and had a delicious lunch. We got the folsom, rainbow, and lion king rolls - they flavors were delicate and complex. And the seafood was so fresh, it just melted away in our mouths! We also got walu (super white tuna) nigiri and they werw divine little bites! Service was attentive and kind. Ambiance was cool and relaxed, with jazz music softly playing in the background. Definitely recommend! read more

Sushi Chef - The Uni Tasting - Sushi Bars Near Me - San Francisco, California

Incredible sushi! I am super critical about my food choices - especially sushi. It's truly my comfort food after a long day or when I want to relax so choosing the perfect place is important. I always fear that the sushi quality may not be fresh or the rolls that the restaurant makes are way too saucy and not appetizing but Sushi Chef blew my expectations out of the water. I went with the Lion King roll and the Rainbow roll both of which were 10/10. *Disclaimer: I am celiac so choosing gluten-free rolls is very important.* I called the restaurant to ask for what substitutions I should make and the lady that answered was SO kind and so helpful. She informed me that I should go ahead and order anything I'd like and the chef will ensure that there's no gluten. They even packed a special container of gluten-free soy sauce and spicy mayo. If you're looking for a sushi place and confused with the hundreds of options on DoorDash, Uber Eats, etc. - just do yourself a favor and stop the search.. order Sushi Chef now. read more

The one of the best gyoza to my test definitely recommend. If you're coming to visit San Francisco come to sushi chef it's delightful. read more

So the food was pretty good. The sushi and sashimi was fresh. We got each the omakase and the sashimi platter plus appetizers. What made it less pleasant was the service. We spent like $270 for two people there for lunch and felt rushed as they wanted to close on time or something. Don't pretend to be a higher class restaurant if your service is just going to be average. read more

Food is below normal sushi standard, the portion is little. Service is poor, none of my questions got answered by the server regarding the dishes. I just ordered a few nigiri, o-toro sashimi, uni tasting and a salad. The bill came up around $140 and two of us weren't even half full. I ended up cancelling the ramen because I just can't bare sitting there for another round of disappointment. We then went to a different Mexican infused sushi restaurant for one of the best o-toro I had in SF. Message me if you want recommendation. Ambience is good tho, the only thing made me stay for a total of 40 minutes... read more

Food was delicious and beautiful. Service was quick! It is small but the tables are spaced out well and the ambiance is pleasant.

This place is incredibly delicious. I've never eaten at the restaurant itself but when I go to pick it up my order the staff is always very kind. Presentation is beautiful. One step above average with wooden takeout boxes and orchid decor. Here's what I get- and HIGHLY recommend! It's the perfect combination of smoky, warm, cozy rolls with fresh sweet and tangy compliments. For two: 1) Sunflower Roll - baked Mango, Eel, crab and Salmon wrapped with a sweet, spicy and warm saucy rice. 2) Rainbow Roll - crab and avocado topped with 4 types of fish- salmon, hamachi, etc. fresh and clean- a good test of quality sashimi! 3) Philly Roll - My partner loves this more than I do but the smoked salmon and cream cheese does give this meal combo a smidge of Californian comfort. 4) Lion King - Baked rice with crab, avocado, Salmon 5) 49ers roll- avocado cucumber (nice fresh crunch) with salmon and lemon give this fresh, tangy contrast to the decadent combination of rolls. I've reordered this combo at least 5 times and can't go wrong come join me in this enjoyable heaven of an experience! read more

Top quality in my opinion. My second visit since they opened 7 months ago. I enjoyed everything!!! Come check out this cute restaurant if you are in the area or if your even far away . Great service . Enjoy ! read more

Best quality fish in San Francisco. Very friendly and attentive staff. Also amazing for take out & delivery, which can't be said for most sushi restaurants in the city. As an anecdotal example, the first thing I wanted to do to make me feel better once I found out I had a torn ACL was to come to Sushi Chef. Please support this incredible local business! read more

After having had many sushi places in SF, this spot shot to the top. We went for weekday dinner and ordered seaweed salad & edemame, the sashimi was incredible, and the rolls were even better. Each sushi dish is carefully prepared and the ingredients are top tier. Comparable to Mama Noko or Elephant Sushi, but this place is more intimate. 10/10. Planning to go back soon. read more

We came in for lunch on a Friday, and ordered the 49er, spicy tuna, and California rolls. I can honestly say this is the best sushi I have ever had. The lemon on the 49er roll and the crab in the California roll were outstanding. Our waiter was kind and attentive, and the vibes were calming and laid back. I recommend! read more

Came here on Thursday to grab a quick dinner around 815 PM. We were able to get seated quickly but it took a bit of time for the server to come back to take our order. We got miso soup, the crazy dragon roll, and the veggie dragon roll. I felt like the miso soup was quite good and the dragon roll felt good but not super special. The presentation of the food and the decor of the restaurant were quite modern and nice which I didn't expect. Overall, for what I paid for I feel like I got a good experience and would come again for sushi if I was in the area. read more

I tried to find a decent option for a quick BDay dinner and ended up with Sushi Chef. And we were not disappointed! Fast service, delicious food and nice not-too-fancy ambiance. We ordered Sunflower roll, beef ramen and hot dry sake. All was great! Roll is a bit sweet as for my taste but my partner liked it a lot! Sake was also very delicious, I never was a huge fan of this drink but at this place really like it! 5 starts for service, serving and location also! read more

Highly recommend (in no particular order) - 1) Oyster was very fresh since it happened to be delivered from Seattle, WA, that day. Came with side of Tabasco and ponzu sauce 2) The uni tasting - uni sitting atop salmon caviar (3 pieces) - nice 3) O-Toro (nigiri) - tender, fatty, tasty 4) A5 Waygu (nigiri) - tender and delicious Good, but because we had the above dishes, I prefer the above dishes - 1) Salmon belly (sashimi) - pretty good but after having the fattier o-toro, I prefer the o-toro over the salmon belly 2) Rainbow roll - slightly higher quality rainbow roll than I'm used to, compared to other restaurants 3) Mixed tempura - I categorize their tempura as "good", but I'll mention that my sister *loved* the crispness of the tempura. ------- Other comments- Plum wine - nice, pleasant plum taste Ambiance - calm and classy. Service - very attentive read more
