Itani remains our favorite go-to sushi spot in Berkeley. We stopped by for a late lunch, and the sushi was absolutely fantastic – it simply melted in your mouths!

I’ve been a huge fan of Hopscotch, Itani Ramen, and Yonsei Handrolls for years, and I was beyond excited to see that the same group was opening a sushi spot in the Gourmet Ghetto! Of course I had to try it with a friend
We each ordered a three-course sushi set and decided on the ITSU set and the baller set. We also added some miso soups and eventually more nigiri, including their delicious Hokkaido scallops and fantastic Hokkaido uni, both of which were about half the price I usually see when eating sushi in the Bay Area, Seattle, Hawaii, and New York. The arctic char was also phenomenal (I should probably mention that I didn’t confirm that the scallops and uni were from Hokkaido, but the uni had that sweet butter consistency that I’ve only seen with Hokkaido uni.)
For drinks we both had still water, and my friend tried the iced tea. I went with the yuzu lemonade, which was delicious and perfect for the warm day but threatened to overwhelm my pallette at times. Service was prompt, generally lovely, and better than most of the service I’ve experienced across multiple states in the last few weeks (including other Bay Area restaurants). They also have different soy sauces available, and both of the ones we tried (I think it was the Yonsei house soy sauce and a garlic soy sauce?) were delicious!
Itani Sushi also had a bunch of freshly made to go options that looked like a perfect option for those in a bit of a hurry or wanting to enjoy the sunshine and some fresh air in their gorgeous, shared back patio (accessible if you walk past the bathrooms and towards the back of the building). I will 100% be back and look forward to my next visit!

Had the sashimi and the nigiri omakase. When we told them we were sitting out back, the chef prepared everything on ceramic plates instead of to go containers- so much better.
The presentation was beautiful and the quality of fish was great. They are the sister restaurant with one in Oakland and Albany so I imagine have a strong connection for sushi grade fish.
We will definitely return.
I heard they may get a license for sit down bar inside which would be great.

We are regulars here – absolutely delicious, always fresh, and decently priced to-go sushi options! Not to mention super friendly and kind service. Recently they threw in an extra toro nigiri (for free) with the cutest note written!! Can’t recommend Itani Sushi enough 🙂

The sushi is really super yummy here!!! I got the maki roll and nigiri combo and it was really tasty. The rolls have a crunchy middle. Maybe crab? It adds a really nice touch.
Sad that Kirala II closed and happy that it was replaced by another great sushi restaurant. It’s a perfect place to grab a quick ready made lunch or dinner.

Was so excited to try this new place out. It did not disappoint! I especially enjoyed the tamago and spicy mama roll. The yellowtail was some of the best sushi I’ve ever had.

Awesome experience with the order/delivery and the food was amazing! Everything on the menu looked delicious but settled on Cold Cali Noodle Salad, Nigiri Combo, Spicy Mama, Yonsei Seared Albacore Roll, ITSU Roll, Yonsei Salmon Belly Roll, Negihama Roll and the Ume Shiso Roll. All the dishes were plated very well and the sushi had very fresh fish with a perfect rice to fish ratio. I am a big fan of ume and shiso so the Ume Shiso Roll was a pleasant surprise to see on the menu and it did not disappoint! Another highlight was the Cold Cali Noodle Salad. The salad was loaded with crab, the soba was cooked perfectly and the dressing was delicious! Excited for my next order to try the rest of the menu!

My partner and I love hamachi carpaccio and came across this spot when looking for a sushi restaurant that was open on Mondays!
We had a wonderful dinner here. The hamachi carpaccio is incredible and the owner also let us sample the arctic char which was also really good. The staff are very welcoming and the ambiance is really cute. This is definitely our new sushi spot and we’re looking forward to visiting again!

Amazing counter sushi spot in the food hall. The arctic char and toro nigiri was absolutely incredible. The Chef was so nice and personable and his suggestions were spot on. Definitely coming back here before it’s gets too crowded and won’t be able to get a spot at the counter
