Suggestions for Japanese Restaurant near Japantown, San Francisco

Dave J. • April 16, 2015Some of the dishes are Western influenced Japanese food and it's so good and comforting.

Steve C. • February 24, 2021The ramen is excellent! This is a really good spot with lovely outdoor seating that catches the sun. And... did I say the ramen is amazing!! 😁🍜

Time Out San Francisco • February 22, 2018Start with a smattering of the kushiyaki, $4 a la carte bites like Kobe beef or obi, then follow up with sashimi picks like the bonito tatami: seared skipjack with onions, tobiko, and ponzu.

Chelsea Q. • November 21, 2021Sushi is so good for the price range

Alena C. • April 8, 2011Inexpensive, tasty sushi rolls - the crunchy roll was yum! Also features lunch specials where you can choose 2 entrees - teriyaki, tempura, ramen, etc.

Jenny E. • November 20, 2017Get the roasted black garlic ramen! If you like foie gras, also get the Ankimo monkfish liver - very tasty.

Elizabeth A. • December 2, 2016The fried chicken with green tea salt and chicken ramen with soft boiled egg were delicious!

Bora B. • May 23, 2016I just ordered Spicy Hibachi Chicken which was really spicy but the Japanese Chef kept supplying side-dishes, even some shrimps to our plates just from the grill😉 great food, great show👍

Natalie K. • October 22, 2018Really good ramen. Even the chicken ramen was delicious (normally easier to mess up)

J L. • August 6, 2014Delicious lunch special with a good deal on the amount of food you get. One of my favorite ramen places in SF so far.

John G. • February 27, 2017Enormous bowls of delicious udon. Curry udon with pork katsu was GREAT and too much food.

Connie C. • August 14, 2018Delicious omkase with a flair! Really unique combinations and flavor accents, like gold flakes, herbs, foie gras, etc on traditional sushi. Small station but great chefs. Def do the 12 piece.

Carol • December 22, 2017Very cool ramen place, with yummy food and friendly service. They have Vegan ramen option that is quite tasty.

Nikhil C. • February 18, 2019Absolutely the best place for Japanese curry in the city. This place serves the lesser know Japanese food, very authentic and has a friendly staff. Family owned and run. Expect a wait on weekends.

Hailey P. • January 13, 2018Omakase is good for the $$ and sushi is very high quality. Highly recommend -- one of the top sushi restaurants in SF

Bennett W W. • December 10, 2023Looking to satisfy your Udon cravings? Izumi is your destination.

J J. • February 17Very limited menu; strictly a Japanese chicken kabob place. They do a vegetarian dish (not quite vegan bc of chicken broth soup) and it’s excellent
