About

You might expect sushi in the Castro to be either overpriced or inauthentic. Sushi Time/Underground Sushi proves otherwise. Tucked away downstairs near Books Inc on Market Street, this spot has a glass greenhouse wall that makes dining feel like a hidden garden. Owner Masa and his Japanese chefs serve excellent sushi at reasonable prices.

The menu focuses on authentic Japanese flavors. It's conveniently located close to Noe and Market. Hours are limited to Tuesday through Saturday, 4:30pm to 8:30pm. Go early or expect a wait. It's a quiet alternative to the bar scene nearby.

From the community

It's pretty basic, but the tuna and avocado tartare was quite tasty.

“a hidden gem”

Near Books Inc on Market Street, downstairs and toward the back, a glass greenhouse wall conceals an excellent sushi spot. Great ingredients, friendly owner and staff, a taste of Japan, and reasonably priced.

“Delicious Sushi...”

Anyone who loves sushi should definitely try this place. Prices are fair and it's in a great location near the Castro district. The sushi chefs are actually from Japan, so the food is authentic.
