Fresh fish and friendly service. Stopped by during lunch hour for their lunch specials set. It came with chefs choice of nigiri, and a roll with miso soup. Fresh fish and finely grated wasabi make the best combo. Would come back again. I will say though, it is in a tucked away location in the middle of a quiet street. But well worth it

Wabi Sabi is a small and simple sushi spot. What I love and appreciate is the simplicity, yet high level sushi, for an amazing price. 11 Nigiri omakase (chefs choice) for $48, where neighboring competitors charge around $100. I stopped in and got an even sweeter deal, their lunch special of 6 chef's choice nigiri, a spicy tuna roll, and miso soup for $26. I mean uou cant go wrong, the sushi is also artful and top quality. Best price in town for sushi. One thing to know is they dont serve alcohol.

Second time here. First time was literally yesterday and I had to come back. That should tell you everything. Wabi Sabi SF is officially my new favorite sushi spot in SoMa. The vibe is relaxed but elevated, and the craftsmanship behind every dish is undeniable. Yesterday I had the Hotto Sake and the O-toro. Both were melt-in-your-mouth perfection. Today I came back to try the Wabi Sabi roll itself, and wow… handcrafted, fresh, and absolutely delicious, both rolls have a little heat yum yum. It’s that perfect balance of flavor and texture that keeps you thinking about it long after the meal. It’s a small small venue with amazing taste. If you’re a fan of sushi done right, this is your place.

Very small and cozy neighborhood spot with very limited seating tucked away underneath a building. But wonderful service and fresh creative sushi. A place to go to when you want some good sushi but don't want to dress up for it. A place where you can wear your sweatshirt and sweatpants and announce, " I am here to eat sushi!" There are about 2 tables, a few seats by the window and few at the sushi bar. Small space w/ 3 employees- sushi chef, helper, and a server. I felt it was very good price for the amount and quality of the sushi. $44 for 10 pieces of quality sashimi? The Osama roll w/ lobster was very creative and nicely presented and my favorite of the night. It looked good and tasted good as well! Wash it down with some hot genmaicha tea and you feel warm and well. It was my first time here and I will definitely be back!
