Had the chirashi. Service was okay as was the dish. Not the best, but if you're in the neighborhood, it's an okay place. more

The sushi itself is great, but the three times I went the wait staff ruined the experience. The wait staff is extremely unfriendly, and they don't go out of their way at all. They got our order wrong the last 2 times we were there. Um, I asked for hot edamame? Not fresh from the cold fridge. Getting a second beer or sake will take actually getting up to go find a server.\r Ambiance is not great at all. I highly do NOT recommend. Pros: Fresh sushi Cons: Horrible service more

No other sushi restaurant within SF has fish as high quality and fresh as Sushi-Ko. I've been to a number of places in San Francisco and found myself disappointed often. Many places care more for presentation & prices rather than quality of the fish itself. Many places overcharge Toro @ $12-18. Sushi-ko has it for $10 and is fresh from the market and not frozen like other places. They are one of few places that serve REAL wasabi root - not green colored horse radish that comes from a tube. **Must request for ""real wasabi"" when placing orders.** Recommended: Sake - fresh salmon Unagi - toasted & crispy on edges Aji - spanish mackeral - one of my favorites Kaki - oyster that's got a ponzu bite to it Toro - fatty tuna melts in your mouth Chef's Creation - not on the menu Scallop Carpaccio - freshly sliced scallops Pros: Fresh Ingredients, Friendly Service Cons: Far from SF more
