Small hole in the wall shop on 2nd selling Japanese bento boxes for lunch. With a pretty small menu, options are fairly limited. Tried the Nagoya infused bento set, featuring eel, rice, and miso soup. While solid, I found the unagi sauce on the eel a bit too sweet. Additionally, the amount of eel was small in comparison for the rice provided. The options on the menu itself are a bit pricey as well. Intended to be a quick lunch spot, the price for the quantity and quality make it a tough choice for repeat visits. read more

It's okay. I ordered the teriyaki chicken today. The chicken is over marinated. I think so they can last longer but it was salty for me so was the soup. I like the set had the soup and edamame but I don't think I will order that again. read more

This place is a small shop where you order from the window but theres open seating in the building to the left of the shop. The menu is simple, but includes all the favorite classics (curry, sashimi, eel) The food comes out quickly and the quality is great! Prices are a little steep but understandable given the location read more

It's been awhile since I've had Grubbies now that I mostly WFH. Was in the office and was around the area for and grabbed their mini omakase! The sashimi is so so fresh and soft it basically melts! The selection for the day was a bit boring compared to what I've had in the past and it looks different from the picture. I know it's 'chef choice' so it's different every-time but I wasn't expecting to get two slices of the same fish each, so it was lacking a bit of a variety. I missed their cute furoshiki compared to the now brown paper bag. Either way I'd still come back for more read more

No fancy scarf tied up as a to-go satchel here, unlike their other location. However, same high quality sushi options. And it seems like it may be freshly made to order, since it took a little time, instead of just handing out of a fridge like the other location. Grubbies Nigiri Combo: Loved that the nigiri each had their own unique sauce/topping, so to add a little subtle flavor. Though the fish itself is very high quality, so that subtle accent is really all you need since you don't want to overpower it. Only 4 nigiri and one maki roll, but at least each piece is a probably two bites. A good fit when you want a light lunch, especially good for a warm day. The maki was very hearty though, with lots of salmon and avocado. Definitely on the more expensive side for grab-and-go, but a nice treat. Nagoya Infused Unagi Set: I normally never have this much unagi, usually just a bite or two in a mixed sushi dinner. It was intense! The cuts are thin and there's a lot of rice underneath, but it's kinda the right balance. Rich eel and luxurious sweet sauce. Japanese Style Bulgogi: I thought this was gyudon, but if they want to identify as bulgogi then that's their business. Not as fancy as the sushi options, since it's a little like Yoshinoya. It was tasty and satisfying, but if I'm going to pay over $25 then I might as well get the sushi. read more

Take a step too fast and you'll miss The Grubbies, the hidden gem takeout-only sushi spot, tucked away in FiDi. Despite having no seating, The Grubbies suits the neighborhood perfectly -- most patrons are simply finance bros seeking quick and easy lunches. And, with all due sincerity, I'd choose this place over Chipotle or Cava any day. I really wanted to dislike Grubbies--its quirky name, the seemingly small portions--but I just can't. For shy under thirty dollars, the nigiri set is outstanding. Every nigiri is crafted with care; the fish portions are generous with each nearly twice the thickness of the rice and lightly seared for extra flavor. The maki rolls are also impressively thick and double the size of traditional maki. Every morsel is a godsend. Even the wasabi is fresh, and the set includes a hearty miso soup with seaweed. Grubbies is a no-frills spot, free of extraneous garnishes or elaborate decor. They just do fresh fish on sushi rice, and they do it exceptionally well. I'll definitely be back. read more

A bit on the pricy side, but truly can't beat that level of freshness. The lady serving the food at the window was super sweet!

This place has been on my lunch list for so long and I finally tried it the other day - which maybe it was my mistake for waiting too long since they first opened. I'm not even sure I am reviewing the same store as the rest of y'all because... this was terrible. First, the menu is now very limited with just a few types of rice bowls (salmon, tuna, chef's choice, unagi, and chicken curry) and one nigiri option, which I got. I ordered online for pickup, but still waited a few minutes more when I showed up about 5 minutes after my pickup was supposed to be ready. No problem here tho, did not deduct stars. However, for about $35, I wouldn't say the fish was as fresh as some of these reviews described, and I found a piece of fish scale in my nigiri. The sushi rice was WAY overcooked (see below photo of mushy rice in the tekka maki roll). The dollops of ginger and yuzu pepper seasoning were simply shocking, and I could not believe I was having food from the same place that people have been hyping based on the omakase don (which they no longer have). Lastly, kimchi flavored seaweed? To complement what? It's as if the meal wasn't bad enough, they had to add insult to injury with this mockery. Have not had sushi this bad since maybe an airport in Texas, and that should tell you enough. I don't I think have been this disappointed in a long time. One star added for the lady at the front being friendly. read more

Always wanted to try this place & finally did ! It was a cute little shop on a busy street, but their service was so fast. We got the nigiri plate & chicken teriyaki. Waited 5-10 mins & food was ready. Felt so homemade like a mother's cooking & super delicious. Definitely will try their other items on the menu at the next opportunity. read more

I'll admit, I purchased this solely for the aesthetics and it definitely did not disappoint. The hanker chief reminds me of an Hermes hanker chief and the overall presentation was just so adorable. The truffle salmon was pretty good and tasted fresh. There were also bits of ikura in it which was nice. It also came with rice + seasoning, seaweed, and a miso soup. The miso soup unfortunately was very basic and pretty lacking. The meal was very filling and I'd go back again. Service was nice and the staff there was patient and explained everything to me. The wait was not too bad, maybe around 10 mins, which is pretty good considering it was during lunch hours for that area. read more

unfortunately the unagi bowls are not good - unagi is sliced and fanned over the rice so there's not many pieces. also looks nothing like the picture on their online ordering where there are two full filets (one kabayaki, one shirayaki) of unagi in each bowl. i liked their truffle salmon at the other location but grubbies in general is overpriced compared to ebiko. service was fine, this was a pick up order. can't speak to ambiance as there's no seating. read more

This is perhaps my favorite sushi spot in the city at the moment. Generous, fresh slices of sashimi and expertly prepared nigiri that balances all the right notes, including a subtle hint of wasabi folded in. My favorites are the nigiri combo and truffle salmon set, which stand out from an already strong lineup. The miso soup that comes with each order is also top notch and classic. Service is quick and friendly. As I work in FiDi, this takeout sushi setup works well and is often preferred. The experience is focused on the quality of the offerings, which I can appreciate. read more

Very simple takeout only place for some sashimi or simple Japanese bento entree. They only had a few options which probably makes it easy to prepare. We ordered the omakase set, which came with 7 pieces of sashimi (though it wasn't labeled and some fish were not what we expected given the description), rice, miso soup, and seaweed for $20. You can also include a drink with your meal, but it's extra of course. Order wasn't quite ready by the quoted time, but it came out within 5 minutes after we arrived to ask for it. They packed everything very neatly and separately and it even comes in a reusable small tote bag with their branding on it. Only caveat was it seems like our order did not come with soy sauce, but it did come with wasabi. All in all, it was a nice and light omakase meal for takeout, but still quite filling. The furikake on the rice was a great addition (actually wish they provided more). The fish was pretty fresh though I wish I knew what some of the unknown pieces were. read more

Use to always walk by this place on the way to work, so finally got around to trying it. This is definitely a hole-in-the-wall place and I highly recommend trying it out. I would preorder because they usually sell out of their fish sets later in the day (I checked around 4/5 PM, and they sold out of fish). I placed a pickup order for 12:45 PM and ordered the Mini Omakase Set + Sweetened Tea. When I arrived, I just had to wait a few minutes because someone was ahead of me. They definitely looked busy in the back! My total was $27.00 (20.95 for Mini Omakase, 1.99 for Tea) Mini Omakase Set came with a total of 7 pieces of Sashimi, but I'm not 100% sure what I received because there were no labels. I believe it was 2 Hamachi, 2 Salmon, 2 Scallops, Ikura, and something else (see photo). The quality of the Hamachi and Salmon was 10/10. Tasted very fresh and basically melted in your mouth. The portion of rice and miso was hefty, so it definitely filled me up after I finished everything. The Sweetened Tea was alright. Maybe because all the ice melted before I got to try, but it tasted watered down. I feel if the ice did not melt, the tea flavor would be stronger. For packaging, instead of using plastic/paper bags, they used branded reusable bags. They packed the bag with everything you needed: napkins, alcohol wipes, chopsticks, spork, toothpick, ginger/wasabi, and 2 soy sauce packets. Really glad they provided all that made eating very easy. This place is super accessible via public transportation. Just a few blocks from a Bart/Muni exit. You could definitely walk by and miss this place, the sign is not super prominent and the store is just a pickup window. It's near Sweetgreens. I know there is another location on Sacramento Street, but haven't gotten to try it yet. Definitely taking my S.O to this place after work! read more

I really like this place, the sushi/sashimi is fresh and the presentation is cute! it's on the slightly pricier end when it comes to lunch places but i think the value is there. I docked a star because I went there and forgot to get a receipt so I can reimburse. When i tried to call them, they didn't seem to have a valid phone number I can reach. Not sure if they monitor their reviews but if they do, I would love to update my review if this can be resolved. read more

I work in the financial district and have wanted to try this place forever - in the past I was hesitant because of the high prices but today I finally decided to give it a try! Unfortunately it was about the become the most expensive meal but also the worst meal I have had here. I got the miyazaki wagyu set, which was priced at $39 plus tax. The "wagyu" - I have had miyazaki wagyu before and the beef did NOT taste like wagyu. The outside was hard and the inside was chewy. The portion was nothing like the pictures and were mostly broken pieces. The pickled vegetables - 2 pieces of carrots, 2 sliced pickles, and 1 sliced mushroom. All of them were tiny. The rice - also tiny portions. Finished in maybe 6 bites. Lastly, the restaurant owner did not allow payment over credit card, saying their "systems have been down". Instead, he suggested payment over cash or to an individual Zelle account, which he included tax amount also. Will he be reporting this income? VERY suspicious. read more

We have been out of SF for a few years, and when we visited it, The Grubbies was on the top of our to visit list. We went there on our first day of visit and absolutely loved it.

After ordering, the cashier gives you a stick to beat the drum for a wish. I took that stick and BANG BANG BANG as loud as I could and scared the bejesus out of everyone in line. And that's how you do it. This truly is a HOLE in a WALL restaurant. It's all to-go only. You get in line to order, step to the side and wait for your order to-go. But the food is so amazingly fresh and every bite is just heaven. Their sustainable packaging is just adorable! I love the scarf as a package! Expensive but its worth it. read more

What a funny name the grubbies, it doesn't really sell this place as a great Japanese raw fish to go spot, so I guess I'll have to do it for them. Not that they don't have enough business, because during lunch time, they're packed and there's usually a line. I really like their chef's omakese sashimi. The fish here is always fresh, the portion and price are worth it, and it comes with this little scarf that I usually can you give away to a co-worker, my mom, a cousin, or any person who wants an extra small scarf. The Omakase sashimi comes with miso soup, rice, and a decent amount of sliced fish. They are extremely quick, so the line goes fast, they are friendly, professional, and I highly recommend this place for anybody who's working nearby, or even tourist who need a quick bite to eat. read more

The smallest sushi joint in town with a short wait. Grubbies has two locations and neither have any seats, but this location has a long bar-like table that could fit 6-7 standing people. Most people just order for to-go, which Grubbies makes super easy to do as they wrap all take out orders in these sturdy but silky ornate scarves. Small menu and almost everything here comes with a side of miso soup, white rice, and seaweed. I almost always get the full omakase which is about $40 and comes with 8-10 different types of fish - they have thick, fresh cuts of fish. I've never had bad quality fish here, but my friend says she often gets a stomach ache after we eat here lol, still doesn't stop her from coming back.. Recently, they started selling nigiri set special which comes from your choice of 5 different nigiri and a maki roll. The rolls are THICK, so it doesn't seem like much but the set will fill you up. P.S. THIS IS MY 600TH REVIEW WOOOOOOO!! read more

Just finished grubbing down on a mini meal and for $21, I'm impressed! First off, if you don't know this place and walking down 2nd St, you'll miss it. The place is takeout only and there are a few photos of meals in plastic page protectors displayed (note to owner, change the page protectors - they look shabby) with prices scribbled with a sharpie. First impression, it's not the type of place I'd consider for lunch. However, reviews look good and what the heck, yolo. I paid for the mini and a couple of minutes later, the lady hands me a bag. I look inside and there's a lot going on in there. Package of sashimi with a tiny orchard decoration, miso soup, a small serving of mayo, a small serving of wasabi/ginger, sushi rice sprinkled with furikake, and a napkin. Loved the fish shaped soy packages! Also, a package of dried seaweed! Go back to my place and opened the chopsticks package.....hard plastic chopsticks! A spoon, a wet wipe, and an alcohol wipe! Sashimi was very fresh....nice satisfying firm bite. Rice was good but was a little wetter than I would have preferred. Miso soup was none eventful. Lots of sheets of dried seaweed. If you work downtown or going to the Salesforce park, it's a must you try this place at least once. Hands down the best bang for my buck I've had in awhile.

The Grubbies - Omakase Mini Omakase - Japanese Near Me - San Francisco, California

This is a hole-in-the-wall place that serves Chirashi! It's conveniently located for persons working in the area and makes a perfect "grab and go" lunch/dinner. In fact, Grubbies basically caters to the working individual because there isn't any seating inside this restaurant and it's only open on weekdays for lunch/dinner. I love Grubbies because of the quality/quantity of the fish and the cute presentation. Each order comes with miso soup, seaweed snacks, rice and a small fish shaped soy sauce bottle. The entire box is wrapped up in an adorable patterned silk scarf that you can keep! Some of the boxes are premade so I've never had to wait too long for an order, even though the line is long and there are only 1-2 employees working. Each chirashi box may be a bit pricey - My two favorites to get are the Salmon ($18) and the Omakase ($39). However, each chirashi set comes with a lot of fish. The omakase (chef's choice) has a really great assortment of items such as salmon, tuna, roe, uni, shrimp head, etc...basically whatever the chef feels like putting in there. At this price point, I can't help but wonder if my $39 would be better spent at a sit-down restaurant instead of on a small box full of raw fish. I feel as if Grubbies is good for a quick bite but if I had the chance I would probably pick an actual restaurant to receive a better value. I would rather be served freshly cut fish at a restaurant than a premade box that is quickly wrapped up in a silk scarf. Note that this place can close once they sell out for the day! Grubbies is also on Postmates and can be ordered for delivery! read more

I've been here two times for lunch and there's a few things I love about this place. Quality of fish - I've had their salmon ($18) and mini omakase ($15) and both times, the texture and quality was top knotch. It also comes with a generous number of pieces so you definitely get what you pay for. Packaging - they wrap it up in silky handkerchiefs and how can you say no to such a cute package Portion size - all orders come with your fish, side of soup, sushi rice, seaweed, soy sauce, and I got a pack of Hello Panda one time too. Easy to order - you can call ahead to place an order to pickup at a certain time (and pay when you get there). This makes it super convenient when you want to just pick it up to go back to the office when you're on a time crunch. Just be aware of which location you are placing the order to. Overall, I highly recommend this place to anyone who's looking for a cute sashimi lunch/dinner in the FiDi district. read more

It's hard to notice The Grubbies if you're not on the lookout for it! I ordered the Mini Chef's Choice on Grubhub for $18.50 before sales tax (I had a gift card) but noticed that on The Grubbies' website, it's $15. The miso soup was salty, which made me wonder if they added anything else to it besides the miso paste and seaweed. There was a good amount of four kinds of sashimi, since I felt pretty full! The greens under the sashimi don't look like what's advertised on the website-think chopped salad that comes in the plastic sold at the supermarket. I think because of the pandemic, they're packing the meal in a brown paper lunch bag and not in a scarf. read more

Awesome food. Quick grab. Order ahead makes it easy. No seating but there are parks nearby.

This was Muffins Muffins, right? I remember they served banh mis, donuts, and duh, muffins, and the space was so small I used to call it Muff-Muff, yeah with a hyphen. But now it looks like an anime version of Queer Eye transformed it, and apparently something like that did happen as this has become a spinoff of the buzzed-about Sacramento Street chirashi takeout window that started as a lunchtime-only operation but expanded their hours to the evenings. Good news for me since I don't work in the area and could only come in the evening. It was about 7PM when I arrived and raining pretty hard as I was perusing the bilingual chalkboard menu under my tattered umbrella (photo: http://bit.ly/2BoEAqA). Sure, it was expensive although I didn't see mention of the infamous but likely justifiable $200 price tag attached to the uni flown in from the motherland. Chirashi is my favorite way of eating fresh sashimi, and for the longest time in my childhood, I thought my mom made up the concept and added green tea to turn the maguro into almost a ceviche. But no, it's an increasingly common sushi alternative at Japanese restaurants since it's usually cheaper because it takes less artistic dexterity to prepare it. Just ask Jiro who likely pooh-poohs such concoctions. But hey, I was willing to throw caution to the wind kamikaze-style and order the $35 Omakase out of the seven choices offered. The quiet young man in the window said they were out and immediately contacted his Sacramento Street colleague to see if I could walk over there to get it. Did I mention it was pouring? Fortunately they were out, too, so I settled on the $15 Mini-Omakase which turned out to be the right portion of me anyway. Just like a scene in a sweets shop on the Ginza in a Yasujiro Ozu movie, the server put together all the components of the Mini-Omakase and wrapped it decorously in a scarf that wouldn't have looked out of place in my late mother's bureau back in the sixties (photo: http://bit.ly/2nQntqk). I took my pretty package home on the 14 where I was eyed by befuddled passengers with their greasy fast food paper bags. When I got home, I quickly unwrapped the scarf and put it away with the notion to regift it to some fashion-challenged acquaintance. The fish looked abundant and fresh with a lacquer of soy sauce - two thickish slices each of maguro, salmon, hamaichi, and escolar with a topping of salmon roe (photo: http://bit.ly/2BpWMjx). It tasted fresh, not Tsukuji-top-of-the-morning-fresh but fresh enough for that hour of the evening when the shop could have been closed. It came with the obligatory cup of miso soup, some gohan, a small package of nori to create your own makeshift maki, and fresh ginger and wasabi in a tiny cup (photo: http://bit.ly/2Bovqu8). So for a touch of Tsukiji at my home, it'll do on a sometime basis. Itadakimasu! FOOD - 4.5 stars...fish flown in from Tsukiji but is it worth the effort? AMBIANCE - 3.5 stars...Muff-Muff turned into a tiny Ginza-style counter operation SERVICE - 4 stars...somewhat subservient TOTAL - 4 stars...itadakimasu! read more

This is a cute little spot to get sushi/omakase and I initially heard of this place cause someone took a nice picture of the food and it was circulating the net so I had to try it! I ordered 2 omakase sets, and an additional salmon. I also saw that it came wrapped in a handkerchief so I wanted that (but like other reviews, I got it in brown bag so it may just be the other location that has it) Location/Wait time: Location is not the best if you're driving since there will be a tough time finding parking, but that's everywhere in SF these days. I had to have my bf drive around while I waited for the food. I ordered two days before and had set my pickup time to be at 12, however I did not get my order until about ~12:20 so that took longer than expected. They did open at 12 so I do have to give them that, but if they allow the option to pick up at 12 and the order was put in a few days before I would think the wait wouldn't be as long. Food: It was pretty small for the price and some of the pieces of fish were a little too fishy (more so than regular omakase) so honestly I thought everything was just okay. They were generous in the rice they gave us which was nice, but I did feel like the quality was just okay. I also got a chirashi bowl from Ju-ni at the same time so it was easy to compare (which both me and my bf enjoyed the food from Ju-ni a little bit more). I think with the price being expensive (I think I paid like $110 for 2 omakase and 1 scallop) and the small amount (and it not blowing me away) I probably wouldn't go back for awhile. It does make for nice pics though! read more

We have been trying to get our sushi fix about once a month through and the grubbies was recommend from my friend. We ordered the omakase for 2 which comes with 8 different types of fish.

This review is for take-out only given COVID-19. Overall: 4/5 Food: 4/5 Value: 4.5/5 Take-out experience: 4/5 Ordered the Nigiri Set ($25), which consisted of 5 sushi, 4 piece spicy salmon roll, miso soup, and a packet of seasoned seaweed along with soy sauce, ginger, and wasabi. The nigiri was great - really fresh, and especially loved the seared salmon. The spicy salmon roll was a fairly spicy, which isn't my favorite preference, but the chunks of salmon within are quite sizeable and overall the rolls were big especially compared to standard maki. Soup was good but nothing exceptional. Portion was actually quite satisfying for me but could see someone with a bigger appetite perhaps wanting another of their offerings in addition. Take-out wise, it's a pick up counter set up even in normal times, with staff handling the transaction and hand off through a pick up window. Only gripe is that the various platforms that offer pickup and delivery options for this restaurant somehow charge 22% higher prices and/or don't have the full menu. If you order for pick up (or delivery for that matter) through their own website you have to do so 24hrs in advance. read more
