I ate at Sushi Zen and the staff was super nice. The portions are average. I had the beef teriyaki and it was a little dry. I did like the sushi rolls and tempura. I like the neighborhood vibe and their walls were covered with pictures of the patrons, which was interesting. Definitely family friendly. I recommend. The bill was $129 for 3 people and we had no drinks or alcohol.

Sushi Zen has good food and their prices are fair. Quick Service and a cozy atmosphere. Winter wonderland(imitation crab and tempura) is a good roll for folks that don’t like raw rolls but like the sushi idea. My favorite roll is a dragon roll and I usually order those two rolls when I do take out.Parking: Parking is currently not great at all because of the Taraval construction going on as of 2/16/24Kid-friendliness: Tempura items and bento boxesWheelchair accessibility: Accessible but not to much room inside.

This place had good service, and most of the sushi we got was good, just that some of them had a lot of rice on them- like too much. Also, the udon soup wasn't bad, but the broth tasted more like wonton soup.

Was out in the Sunset District for business and was looking for a place to get sushi for dinner on a recent Friday evening. Called a friend who lives in the area and she recommended her favorite neighborhood place, Sushi Zen. Parking in the area is a little challenging, but I did find a space on the avenue a block away. Arriving at 6:00pm, the restaurant was about half full, so we had no problems getting seated.The menu consists of sushi nigiri and rolls, dinner / combinations, noodles, and appetizers. We decided on:Chicken teriyaki and sashimi combination with miso soup and rice and mixed green salad. Good amount of chicken, which was moist. The sashimi consisted of three pieces of salmon and two pieces of hamachi. Fish was fresh.Dragon roll and Rainbow roll - both rolls were good. Real crab meat was inside the rainbow roll and fish was fresh. One piece of the rainbow roll was topped with avocado rather than fish, which I've never seen before.Overall, service was friendly and efficient. Restaurant is quaint with one wall covered with pictures of patrons and the owner. A non-nonsense neighborhood restaurant or sushi and dinner items.

Came here with a party of 3 for dinner. It was around 5:30pm on a Saturday and was already starting to get crowded in this small little restaurant. I love chicken katsu so I ordered it here and the portion size is big! Along with the tasty sushi rolls, everything was excellent here and I could barely finish my order. The staff is friendly and food is delicious. Would come back again next time.

I love sushi, and something San Fransisco has a lot of, is sushi, but the reality is all sushi is not created equal, and while some places have roof top views, or exclusive lists, and people swear they're the best spots in all the city, they're not accessible and sustainable for the general public. When I think of sushi I think of simplicity, and quality. Flashy rolls are fun, miso soups are essential, but the quality and consistency are the most important thing. That's why I go to sushi zen.The service is amazing across the board and you're greeted and sat quickly if there isn't a wait. The restaurant is small and inviting, but very lively, some of my best conversations where had at those tables, and some of my happiest solo dinners where had there as well.The menu is vast bust simple, and everything is made with quality in mind. Starting the meal with miso soup, and going into the rich unagi roll, was perfect. The flavors are full and cohesive. The richness of the eel and spicy tuna stands out and stays till you have the amazing and sweet beef teriyaki. And you finish with incredible sashimi that melts in your mouth. I had this meal alone and it was as a reward after running a 10k and it was everything my taste buds where craving.Sushi Zen is on my consistent rotation and I recommend it to everyone!

The rolls were beautifully presented, showcasing the chef's skill and attention to detail. Each piece was a harmonious blend of textures and tastes, leaving me craving for more with every bite.

Soft traditional music played in the background, further enhancing the overall dining experience. The restaurant was thoughtfully laid out, with ample space between tables, ensuring privacy and intimacy even during peak hours.While the option of dining in was a delight, I also appreciated the convenience of their takeout service. In today's fast-paced world, having the ability to enjoy restaurant-quality sushi in the comfort of my own home was a significant bonus. Placing my takeout order was a breeze; the staff was attentive, polite, and ensured that my order was accurate and ready for pickup on time. The sushi rolls were carefully packaged, preserving their freshness, and the presentation of the takeout containers matched the elegance of the restaurant.My family's & my experience at Sushi Zen was nothing short of extraordinary.
