Description:
JAPANTOWN. Cuisine leaps to the forefront of this restaurant's appeal, thanks to raw and cooked options that, without exception, deliver on flavor, presentation, and preparation. Diners can choose from teriyaki, donburi, and tempura dishes and then pair them with a selection from the extensive list of sakes. Maki is a specialty, and resident chefs share their time with the Four Seasons next door. Sanraku also boasts a kaiseki menu, a rarity among Bay Area restaurants. Vegetarian items are available. |

Description:
EMBARCADERO. Beautifully dressed in granite and pale wood, this enticing restaurant is a magnet for local professionals. Not only do they relish its fabulous sushi, but they also appreciate a creative approach to traditional Japanese fare. Artfully presented dishes are a visual delight, as are sublime views of the Bay, maximized towards the rear of the dining room. Along with sushi, choose grilled robata-yaki dishes, hot pots, or indulge in an omakase tasting menu. Superb sakes heighten the expensive, high-quality experience. |

Friendly servers will gladly explain any dishes and offer suggestions about the list of sakes. |

Description:
COLE VALLEY. Although it's a small place, and waits are inevitable, this Japanese restaurant creates some of the city's best sushi. The quality of food is impeccable, and the friendly waitstaff are happy to explain the menu's offerings. Cooked dishes are available, but the sushi is so spectacular that folks rarely get to them. Among the delicacies you'll find are white tuna sashimi, unagi, and spicy tuna. Best of all, the place not only aims to please – it succeeds. |

Description:
NOE VALLEY. At this trendy Japanese restaurant, you'll be mesmerized by both the cuisine and the beautiful interior. A blonde-wood sushi bar serves as a gathering spot for folks who want to glimpse the sushi-making process, and a dining room accommodates groups. Sushi itself is a splendid visual treat, perfectly in synch with the handsome clientele. Traditional sushi items and select specialty rolls both come highly recommended, and cooked meals (steak and cold steamed spinach, among them) are available as well. |

Description:
SUNSET DISTRICT. City veteran Ebisu has been serving some of San Francisco's best sushi for two decades now. Although a menu is provided, it's best to sit at the sushi bar and let the chef serve you his off-the-menu favorites. Fashioned from impeccably fresh seafood, the sushi is out of this world. It does, however, come at a price: long waits and hard-to-find parking. Still, you'll find the results more than compensate, proof of Ebisu's consistent popularity. Cooked dinners are available. |

SAUSALITO. Clean-lined, airy, and brightened by original artwork, this small restaurant serves top-quality sushi. Servers easily cater to fans and to newbies who aren't quite as well-informed.

A variety of salads also promises fresh, crisp flavor, and cooked meals feature chicken, prawns, squid, and noodles. If you're a regular, consider joining their Sushi Lovers Club. |
