Yume Sushi — Restaurant in San Francisco

My favorite Asian cuisine is Japanese, hands down. The downside is, they tend to be more on the expensive side, but whenever I go it's such a treat.

Located in a more residential pocket of Glen Park on Monterey Boulevard, the restaurant doesn't really stand out from the roadway, it's fairly nondescript. To me though, the unpretentious, unobtrusive nature of its facade is kind of alluring, almost like being part of a small club that knows a certain speakeasy of bygone days. What's more, it's not easy to find street parking in these parts, so it's a bit inconvenient.

However, once you get past finding a parking spot and locating this place, this place is charming, if not intimate, and it has that Japanese vibe. The menu has ample offerings you'd find in any typical Japanese place, but I'm inclined to order their sushi rolls which tend to be generous and reasonably priced.

During lunch and afternoons are my recommended hours as it's not crowded and guess what? Finding parking is easier. It's definitely a neighborhood spot and it's one of the reasons why I love San Francisco restaurants, small independently owned places, each with its own character and distinction.

The food is good, reliably consistent and at least the times I've been there, the service is super fast. But then again, I go at non-peak hours.

Good luck finding parking and...

Pleasantly surprised !!! This spot is in our neighborhood and wanted to give it a chance. The nigiri was well crafted, good flavor and a nice mouthfeel. We tried amaebi, sake belly, sample of the toros. Chu -toro was the star. I like how the amaebi had roe on top. It was a nice touch.

The rolls were all nice portions and well balanced rice ratio. We had the deluxe California roll and rock and roll. My hubby loved the salmon skin hand roll. It was large and very flavorful. The presentation of the hand roll was beautiful. Agedashi was great, the daishi could have more depth but nice crispy and pretty plate.

One of the better neighborhood sushi spots we’ve...

This place deserves all the 🌟 STARS 🌟 it is SUPER GOOD! The salmon here felt like butter, and everything that they brought out was super well made and fresh. I really wish I had ordered the Salmon Lovers role, but ordered the spicy salmon role, and it was delicious, too. Since many google reviews mentioned the Dynamite role, also tried that but didn't love it. There was nothing wrong with it, but it was not my favorite. Again, order ANYTHING salmon!! service was super attentive and kind. They have these really cute booths that make it feel very intimate and comfortable. Order take out or make it a dinner night out date. It was so...
