City veteran Ebisu has been serving some of San Francisco's best sushi for two decades now. The legend behind the namesake reveals the care and tradition this restaurant brings to their food. Ebisu, one of the Seven Deities of Good Fortune, is the god of rice paddies and kitchens.
Although a menu is provided, it's best to sit at the sushi bar and let the chef serve you his off-the-menu favorites. Fashioned from impeccably fresh seafood, the sushi is out of this world. It does, however, come at a price: long waits and hard-to-find parking. Still, you'll find the results more than compensate, proof of Ebisu's consistent popularity. Cooked dinners are available.

San Francisco Local Expert
- Japanese: "They have three locations, but the 9th and Irving location is an intriguing neighborhood that is often overlooked."
- Best for Japanese Because: Ebisu is a good place to rub elbows with locals.
