I went on Tuesday evening, and it wasn’t crowded. The host and chef were very hospitable. Their dedication to their food and service gave me a fantastic experience! I had the omakase experience at the bar, and loved seeing the chef cut fresh fish to serve on my plate. The menu was a perfect balance of authentic nigiri/sashimi and dishes that showed off the restaurants creativity and style. Everything was delicious. I would definitely come back again!

The entire experience was great! Very pretty and creative courses! Nigiri was very delicious. The head chef is friendly, and service is elite. There are multiple servers serving you, and everyone is very welcoming. The restaurant interior is modern and new and atmosphere is very cozy and comfortable. P.s. Chef gave us a gift cake at the end!

Amazing time at Sushi Hakko (back in May, but remembered to write a review)! Everything on their omakase menu was perfectly selected and prepared. Found out the sushi chef’s story (believe his name is Alex) and how this was the 1st of a group of sushi restaurants, and his true love. Really knowledgeable and offered great suggestions on our add-on pieces. The hostess’ name is Dream… tough name but she lived up to it! Super friendly, attentive & accommodating, letting my friend and I accidentally chat past closing without saying a word! Definitely recommend for a great experience in a casual, inviting setting

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ A World-Class Omakase Experience — Deserving of a Michelin Star
I had the incredible pleasure of dining at Sushi Hakko today with my 17-year-old daughter, and we were completely blown away. Chef Alex, the owner of the restaurant, was personally behind the counter preparing our 19-course omakase tasting menu — and every single dish was a masterclass in flavor, balance, and craftsmanship.
From the first bite, it was clear that Chef Alex isn’t just serving sushi — he’s telling a story. Every piece was served over perfectly warm rice, seasoned precisely to highlight each fish. The attention to tradition was striking: for example, the miso black cod was prepared using a 16th-century Japanese recipe. Unlike the sweeter versions popularized by Nobu, this one had a deeper, more nuanced umami profile — thanks in part to the two-year fermented miso he uses. Honestly, it was even better than the version at Nobu.
Standout dishes? Too many to name, but the Toro Tartare with caviar and uni on a rice cracker was truly out of this world — and came with a hand-drawn visual design created by Chef Alex himself. That artistic touch elevated the dish even further. The Uni, O-Toro, and Kinmedai were exceptional, and the final panna cotta was unexpectedly one of the best I’ve ever had — smooth, delicate, and beautifully balanced.
Chef Alex is clearly a perfectionist and an artist. It shows not only in the food but in the way the entire experience is orchestrated. Sushi Hakko deserves a Michelin star — not just for the food, but for the heart, history, and vision behind it.

Sushi Hakko offers a delightful omakase experience, though it’s worth noting that the bar omakase, while priced higher than the standard table omakase, isn’t always worth the premium. If you’re seated at the far left side of the bar, you might find yourself at a lower level, hindering your view of the chef’s artistry.
The menu thoughtfully highlights wine pairings for each course, making it easy to enhance your dining experience. However, be prepared for a 20% service charge, regardless of your party size.
The omakase at the sushi bar comprises an impressive 19 courses, starting with edamame tofu and progressing through highlights like the flavorful suma katsu, the rich red crab soup, the melt-in-your-mouth chu toro, the sweet and delicate hotate, the luxurious uni, the satisfying toro tartare, the buttery king salmon, and the exquisite panna cotta.
Our 19 course omakase included- edamame tofu, medai, suma katsu, red crab soup, hirame, tsuri aji, chu toro, kinmedai, hotate, ankimo, miso black cod, king salmon, toro, o-toro, masaba, uni, toro tartare, red miso soup and miso panna cotta.
While the fish was undeniably fresh, some early nigiri pieces, such as the medai (chewy due to the skin) and the tsuri aji (with a stronger fishy taste than usual), didn’t quite impress.
However, the second set of nigiri showcased greater depth of flavor. The panna cotta, with its silky smooth texture, was a perfect finale.
The service was consistently excellent, with a friendly chef adding to the positive atmosphere. The ginger on the side was a delicious touch, and the ambiance was inviting.
Overall, Sushi Hakko offers a memorable omakase experience, but be careful when considering the bar seating.

Relaxing, high end sushi spot with omakase service. Chef Alex was warm & friendly in conversation, and masterful in the preparation of each dish. I particularly liked the miso panna cotta for dessert, and then Alex delighted us with a complimentary truffle cheesecake!

I have to say this was even better than I expected. Really top quality food, made with love. Amazing mixture of flavours, some really pure, some complex, some traditional, some new. Sitting at the bar is a really special experience, Chef Alex Kim is focused on his work, but also passionate about it so he is happy to take time to explain to you about the history and his take on the dishes. Great food, excellent sake in a really chilled atmosphere.

When a restaurant gets better, why in the name of the Virgin Maria can’t you give it 7 stars? Chef Alex of Sushi Hon notoriety has really outdone himself at least by 33.78% this time. The choice of fish has become more unique and differentiated compared to every other sushi restaurant in SF, and the garnish quality has risen beyond any other Bay Area sushi establishment. Ever since launch this spot has increased the specialization of fish, seasoning, and sake, and will always be better than Kusakabe. Go here and remove your disappointments in life.

My wife and I had bar Oamakase, and it was by far the best one we had in SF during my 10 years of living in the city!
All sushi we had were amazing. Otoro and Uni in particular were top notch. They tasted so fresh and melted in my mouth.
The place has great ambience as well – light jazz music playing in the background with modern and spacious space.
Staffs were super attentive, and chef Alex was very kind, informative, and polite.

my favorite sushi spot in SF. High quality and thoughtful pieces especially for the price point and excellent service. The waitress even noticed that I was left handed so served the nigiri the opposite orientation so that it was less awkward for me to eat. overall highly recommend! have been here twice so far and will certainly be back.
