Tsubasa

We've been here for lunch a while back, which was OK. Tonight we went again (8 months later). I have no words. We arrive and like a chorus the 2 servers say "seat yourselves anywhere", which we did. A young male server came to our table. We asked about the wine, he said there's red and white. We asked what the white was, he said "red". Huh? Again, what white house wine do you have? We have red snd white. Oh... It's cabernet. Again we asked about the white wine and again he said cabernet. I explained cabernet is red. We want white. He didn't know. He would ask. Came back with white wine choices. Then he asked what we want to eat. We asked for a minute to look at the menu and he left. A minute later the girl server came snd asked if we're ready to order. We said no and literally 2 seconds later the male server was back. This time we said give us 9 minutes please. (So who is our server?? He or she?? ) It feeks like unorganized chaos. As we ordered, the chef must've overheard and then said no we don't have this, don't have that. Two things we ordered weren't available. The sushi rolls's rice was way too thick to properly taste the small amount of fish in it. The octopus balls were tasteless. If the tasteless octopus weren't visible, I would think there were no octopus inside. Tasteless. On every menu item we asked about, the server said I believe (this of that). Never sure of anything. My opinion of this restaurant at this time is the servers are both clueless, management is very absent. The redt of the food was okay, nothing to recommend at all. Oh and the salad was never served, they forgot. Just like servers expect a good tip, I expect good service. I don't know who owns this restaurant, but he/she needs to do some server training. And someone to take charge of the restaurant and operation for the evening. It lacked very obviously. We won't be back. Hope the situation improves for the sake of other clients expecting a good experience. Our bill was $88, you'd think at least we'd be somewhat full ... we weren't. Needless to say ... overpriced.

The best sushi I've had in a LONG time. Fresh ingredients and new flavor profiles allowing us to get out of the old Shaggy Dog Roll rut. I had the Mimi Roll (of course) and it was delicious. I love the small casual vibe of the restaurant. It's appears this little gem is getting busy and in need of additional staff- which is a good problem to have. Awaiting a clean table was well worth the excellent dinner we were served. Will definitely be back.

Chef John did some major lighting changes to the place and made it more romantic in my opinion. This place is still my favorite sushi place in the whole Bay Area. The owner and chef take good care and detail to their menu items and quality of ingredients. Recently took my in laws here for the first time since it's their first time visiting the state and I immediately had to take them to Tsubasa. They 100% loved it here and can understand why I always come back! If you're in the area for sushi, I recommend you don't sleep on this place! It's too good to gatekeep!!

The fish was very fresh and the popcorn dumplings are delicious! The waitress and the chef were very accommodating to my girlfriend's soy allergy and friendly too. Tsubasa is a cool sushi bar that I will definitely be returning to.

I've been to this establishment a few times over the years that I have lived here and have had an overall positive experience until more recently. The last time I went, my bulgogi was cold and sashimi very thin but enjoyed the rolls, friendly service and cozy atmosphere so we decided to go again.This time, service seemed disorganized and slow. We wouldn't have minded the wait if quality reflected that but the food was mediocre and proportions were small, decent but not worth really the price. At this point, it wasn't necessarily a bad experience but after seeing two cockroaches, we decided to leave.

My boyfriend and I love this place. The food is always amazing and John is the best! Nice chill environment with the best fresh sushi.

Absolutely love this place. Great food and service every single time my family and I come!

Easily the best sushi this side of town. Fish is always fresh and sourced with care.Truffle seabass maki roll is unique and nuanced and not weighed down with mayo.Interesting niigori sakes and Kirin Light. Hatori Hanzō vibes all over. General Tso Chicken NOT being on their menu is a mark of a focused Japanese restaurant.

Service was impeccable. The staff is attentive and polite. The ambience is very relaxing and clean. The food is absolutely delicious and exceeded my expectations. I highly recommend this spot for a fun date night or just a nice family meal. The lychee sake is also very tasty! I wish I could give them more stars! Fantastic experience!

Gross place. Gave my husband and I both upset stomachs. Also saw roaches in the bathroom and wonder where else they might be...
