Saru Sushi Bar is a tiny gem offering excellent sushi in a small seating area. It is well-known for its standout negihama roll and has received praise for the sashimi omakase experience, which many consider the best in San Francisco. The restaurant also offers tasty options like the spider roll and a recommended appetizer. The service is fast and friendly, with attentive staff making sure your tea never runs out. The atmosphere is calm and pleasant, ideal for catching up with friends or enjoying a solo meal. Prices are reasonable, around $7.50 per nigiri, and gratuity is included in the menu price for convenience. Customers appreciate that they can order one piece at a time to try different options, and the daily specials like engawa and golden eye snapper are highly recommended. The restaurant does not take reservations, so arriving early is wise to secure a table or prepare to wait in line. Parking is available on the street, and while seating inside is limited, there is some accessible outdoor seating. This spot is perfect for sushi lovers seeking fresh, delicious options, including a delightful salmon tasting recommended by the chef.
