Big Fish House — Restaurant in San Francisco

A new spot in outer Richmond, but one of those places that sort of feel like you'd never just stumbled upon on your own. Either way, still relatively new so came in with a group of 7 and was seated immediately at the sushi bar and we instantly felt like home. A clean bar with a slightly fancy feel. All the tables look pretty well done as well.

FOOD : Chicken wings. An odd choice at a sushi spot but GOODNESS were these good. They took one of the bones out for ease of eating and the batter they had on this was ridiculous. Crunchy, salty and a little sweet. Juicy chicken served with a sauce to balance it all out. Highly recommended.

Ankimo. One of the classics but the quality here was phenomenal. Smooth with a ton of umami balanced with the sweet and tangy sauce. Also highly recommended.

10 piece omakase. Had all the classics, but obviously the highlights of uni, salmon, otoro, shrimp and Hamachi which were excellent. For $60, really a great option for the quality of fish you're getting with solid seasonings. Definitely recommend.

30 piece sashimi. Also excellent quality fish with a good variety and honestly great price point as well.

Oysters were also fresh and super tasty.

Chawanmushi. RIDICULOUSLY GOOD. Umami, sweet, creamy. Perfect. Highly recommend.

Double Toro roll. A great balance with excellent fish. A great starter to share. Definitely recommended.

DRINKS: Spicy girl. A great drink if you're okay with a little kick. Sweet and spicy with a hint of rice. Definitely one of my favorite drinks.

They have a couple more drinks that were great, so definitely worth trying a few!

Overall a great experience. The biggest thing is that it feels like family when you're here. Everyone is friendly and helps you tailor your experience to you. Excellent food, and great drinks, with an awesome staff. Highly recommend. Can't go wrong with anything you order(so far). I will...

What a Sushi find!!! The sushi here is fresh and very, very good. The Big Fish House imports much of its fish directly from Japan. It also skillfully acquires local catch to round out its inventory.

Located in San Francisco, Outer Richmond District, at 2109 Clement Street, between 22nd and 23rd Avenue. Parking is metered along Clement, free if you find space along the Avenues. We reserved a spot by calling in, but you can just walk in as there is plenty of seats.

Our group was blown away by the Big Fish House. We were also very fortunate to meet Julie, the restaurant owner.

For starters we had Edamame and a Poke bowl. The Maguro was so fresh! Our next dish was a platter of 14 Day aged Maguro/Tuna sushi, Albacore sushi, and Salmon sushi. I felt the aged Tuna flavor was indeed much richer with surprisingly less fishy taste. The Albacore and Salmon were also so fresh and flavorful. All nice thick cuts. Note: The ginger and wasabi were top of the line, quality that you expect from a Nobu's type of Sushi house.

Next up was a Pike-Sanma. Japanese call it a katana fish due to its shape. It was served the traditional way, salted, broiled and delicious. Next a Veggie tempura platter. It had a nice batter, healthy portions, cooked to perfection. Our final dish was the Big Fish House signature, “Chicken Wings". Mega Tasty and Mega Crispy is how I would describe it. Its light battered and deep fried. This is a must have here!

The restaurant has a very intimate setting. Large comfy couch (waiting area) in front, 8-10 sushi bar seats, several large tables, healthy selection of drinks and sake! With Julie's excellent service, beautiful presentation, delicious sushi, and very obvious ability to select the finest sushi, I give Big Fish House my highest...

What an incredible find! This place is a true hidden gem. The moment you walk in, you can feel the warmth and care that goes into everything. From the friendly service to the beautifully crafted dishes.

The sushi is exceptional. Every piece is fresh, perfectly cut, and bursting with flavor. The sashimi, in particular, stands out for its amazing quality — tender, buttery, and so fresh it practically melts in your mouth. You can really taste the difference that comes from skilled preparation and top-notch ingredients.

The owners clearly take pride in what they do, and it shows. Service is attentive and genuine without ever feeling rushed. Whether you’re a sushi enthusiast or just looking for a cozy spot for dinner, this place delivers a fantastic experience every time.

Can’t wait to come back — easily one of the best sushi...
