Top 10 Japanese Restaurants In SF's Mission District
Japanese cuisine is famous for its authenticity, minimalism and the unique collaboration between the imagination and creativity. The Mission in San Francisco is renowned for its concentration of the most popular Japanese restaurants in the city. Let us acquaint you to the taste of traditional and modern Japanese cuisine, which perfectly combines sweet, sour, bitter and salty, bringing to life the true meaning of ‘umami.’ Here are our top ten Japanese restaurants in the Mission.
1. We Be Sushi
We Be Sushi
It takes a lot of time and patience to make the right kind of sushi: fresh fish or vegetables, correct amount of rice, the size and the length, and the chef has to calculate precisely how much of the ingredients should be used to leave his/her customers satisfied. We Be Sushi has managed to perfect this balancing act. Nigiri sushi are served as two on a small plate, and has a pleasant variety of fresh fish and vegetables. This place not only offers sushi and sashimi, but also lunch and dinner with the famous Japanese beer ‘Sapporo,’ or premium sake. Suitable for families and corporate events, the minimalistic interior design helps you relax and fully enjoy the meal.

2. We Be Sushi
We Be Sushi
The owner of We Be Sushi opened two restaurants a few block apart from each other. If We Be Sushi, mentioned above, is recommended for families and friends, this location is smaller, more intimate and perfect for a first date or simply enjoying a dinner for one. The design combines ethnography and a rich history of Japanese cultural items, including fine paintings hanging on the walls with fans and mythological creatures. The menu is the same as the first location, but the environment couldn’t be more different. Evenings are the best time to be there.
