Zushi sushi  4 Star Rating - Very good

I agree with the previous review - this is some of the best sushi around. Really fresh, interesting dishes and very reasonably priced for great fresh fish.

The only downside is the restaurant's tiny size. it's also pretty straightforward - no frills or fancy decor - but the food is amazing!

This place is so good!  4 Star Rating - Very good

Zushi Puzzle has some of the best Sushi in SF! If you have time for a bit of a wait, hold out to sit at the sushi bar... the sushi chef is totally entertaining and if you're charming enough, you might get a roll named after you!

PROS: Great Food!
CONS: Some things are a little too spicy -- look out!

OVERRATED 3 Star Rating - Satisfactory

Even with a reservation, I've had to wait up to one hour. They try and build up the biggest bill they can by giving you more than you order and then charging you. No Sake list so you don really know what you are getting and what you are paying? Roger (owner/sushi chef) a bit full of himself. Loved it at first and now I'm boycotting..

Pros: Variety of sushi
Cons: atmosphere, over billing

Can't imagine life without Zushi 5 Star Rating - World class

I can't even count the number of times I've replied, "Anything but sushi" when asked what I felt like for dinner. Well, on the last occasion I said that, my answer went ignored and I was taken to Zushi Puzzle. When I sat down and Chef Roger asked what I liked, I told him what I didn't like: raw fish and seaweed. He sure had his work cut out for him! What I soon found out was that I actually did like sushi... love sushi. What I didn't like was bad sushi as I had tried much of it over the years because I did always want to like it. I've had a couple dozen visits since then and he never ceases to amaze me with his inventive rolls, always the freshest fish, keen knowledge of sake and fervent desire to please his patrons with the best sushi on the west coast. I've continued to try other sushi places in the city and beyond and none can compare. I've seen reviews on here claiming the sushi at Zushi is "alright." I can only feel sorry for these people as I know their palate must be broken. The live scallops, signature hand roll, butterfish, tunas - all divine. And if you can, you should try the tempura banana. Now when asked what I feel like for dinner, you can't get me to say anything but "Zushi".

Pros: Chef Roger, scallops, sashimi, friendly atmosphere

Contender for the Best Sushi in SF 5 Star Rating - World class

Absolutely my top stop for good, fresh, inexpensive sushi in the city. It's my default choice for where to eat out. Kind of a pain to get to down in the tourist motels of the marina though. Kind of a "hole-in-the-wall" that really delivers. I've eaten my fair share of sushi around the city and this place is one if the few I would recommend to friends.

Pros: Great Sushi, Inexpensive
Cons: Lack of atmosphere

Best sushi anywhere 5 Star Rating - World class

This is a great sushi restaurant! The different types of sushi they have are fantastic. I have tried more kinds of fish here than any other sushi restaurant in San Francisco. This is the sushi I compare all other sushi to.

Pros: different types of sushi. nice people
Cons: NO PARKING
