“ always very fresh, well composed food. Great. friendlyservice at the bar. I've been going since around 1984-1985 ”
“ Best sushi in Marin county and the Bay Area for that matter. I have been coming to Yu Shang since I was a child. It was amazing back then and even more amazing now ”
“ Omg!!!! Best sushi I've tried so far In hidden little place that you would never think it will be hidding a gem. I'll be coming back soon Thanks Cesar for the best customer service !! ”
“ I'm now at over 30 years (I don't look at old) going to Yu Shang. It's still just as good and my favorite sushi restaurant. I actually drive almost two hours to get my Yu Shang fix. I take a walk at Blackies Pasture in Tiburon, get a burrito from Puentes in the Montecito shopping center and then get a big Yu Shang order to go. ”
“ My family and I have been coming here for years (mostly dining on the Japanese side of the menu) and I think it's one of the best sushi places in the Bay Area! We always order the crab cucumber salad and usually the sashimi platter, as well as the spicy scallop hand roll - the quality of the fish is always super fresh. I'd recommend sitting at the sushi bar if you can, Cesar the sushi chef is the best! ”
“ Still one of my favorite sushi bars anywhere! In the 2 years since I last ate here, the quality has remained top-flight. So glad I had a chance to eat here again! ”
“ The cabbage crab special salad is a MUST! No vinegar haha I made a mistake of ordering with vinegar once and it destroyed the flavor. My favorite sushi is the Twister Roll. It's just light and delicious. The service is always good. I've been coming here for the past 10 years. Simple place, very casual but the food is just GREAT! ”
“ I hadn't been here in many years. We ordered Broccoli Beef and General Chow's Chicken. Both dishes were served to us very quickly and they were piping hot. I didn't realize that the chicken came with broccoli also so we had a large amount of broccoli. Fortunately, the broccoli was perfectly cooked (hot but crisp). There's nothing worse than an overcooked veggie in Chinese food. The food is good with decent flavors. I still prefer China Village in Novato. They also serve sushi at this restaurant. I've heard it's good, but I'm not a sushi eater. They have a parking lot behind the restaurant on Kerner. ”
