Yoshi's has served Japan's best traditional dishes to Bay Area patrons since 1972. The menu highlights artfully arranged sushi, fresh grilled seafood, classic Japanese dishes, and vegetarian fare. Patrons can kick off their shoes in the traditional Japanese tatami seating or dine at tables. Expert sushi chefs create sushi and sashimi to order either in the restaurant or in the jazz house. Start the evening in the cocktail lounge before dinner or have a nightcap after taking in a show in the jazz house.

    Good quality. I really enjoyed my unagi followed by the cod entree. Delicious! Fun sake tasting as well. Knowledgeable staff. Fun! Just a bit loud. No biggie!

    Great service, amazing food. We went before a show and they were sure to serve us quickly so we could get seated in time. The food was delicious, good wine selection, nice cocktails. The only complaint (and it's minor) was that two of our dinners arrived before the others and while we were still eating our salads. Overall, it was a lovely meal!

    Yoshi's is a lively, fun place with delicious food. I had the Snow Monkey sushi and it was delicious. Have it; you won't be disappointed.

    Great evening at Yoshi’s. From the starters through dessert, it was yummy. The beef skewers with pepino peppers, the spring rolls, the miso soup! Our server, Katie, was attentive and professional. We shared delicious rolls (the Jack London was particularly tasty). The tempura calamari was also a winner. Ended with sharing the crème brûlée for a perfect finale. We will be back. Our teenage grandchildren (15, 19) had a great time, too.

    ENJOY! Yoshi's is always something special. The food and service never disappoints and always exceeds expectations. The music venue is as intimate as they come.

    Good, tasty seafood in the restaurant with excellent service. In the showroom, they forgot Amy’s order. The server claimed that it was a new system and that “it was his bad.”
