Vanessa H: Wow, this place is amazing. Brussels sprouts (OMG!), tea leaf salad (obvi), lamb curry was so tender and had wonderful flavors, and the cod and egg noodles (can't remember the name) are all delicious!
Joseph Balancio: Asked the server for recs and everything was excellent: b sprouts, fried tofu, tea leaf salad, and miso cod noodles. B cooler for drinks. Friendly service. Happy hour 5-7 m-f
Simon Willison: Miso cod noodles are spectacular, and very generous with the cod (especially if you are used to miso cod at Japanese restaurants)

Abbey Keck: Wasn't a huge fan of the sushi. Get the Black Cod.
Sarah E: Butterfish tataki, prime beef filet, and black cod were all great. Sushi rolls were decent but not amazing. Pork belly was awful and shisito peppers could use lemon juice and some kind of oil- too dry
Verna: Toro sashimi, black cod and wagyu steak.

Masha Ioveva: The great homemade tofu made in a clay pot right there is wonderful, a whole new experience. And the black cod and eggplant are close seconds.
Stephanie Au: The oboro tofu is made right when you order-! If the miso black cod or sardine sashimi is on the specials board--ORDER them. You won't regret it. Request mochi at the beginning because they run out.
Kayo S.: Broiled miso marinated cod is highly recommended.

Jennifer Leonard: Pumpkin bread, kale salad, black cod, oh my!
CITY GRIT: Melissa Perillo, a Michelin starred Mama, might serve our favorite Italian dishes in the city. Reservations are recommended, as are the Squid Ink Linguine, Chicory Panzanella, and the Black Cod.
Earl Williams: Chickpea fritters, blackened cod, pork chop, I mean you name it and it's good.

Jessica Lynn Shull: Junior Fish & Chips A-MAZING. She uses fresh Cod, freshly battered and fresh real potatoes for the fries aka chips. Get the Baja sauce! The owner is wonderful!
Timothy T.: The fish and Stinky chips (parmesan and garlic) were oily but not heavy and still crispy in the bag after a quick drive to the Marina. Nice flaky cod inside the just right batter was a little salty
Emily Rose: In COD WE TRUST

Erin Matts: Happy hour from 5 to 6.30 is magical. Wine and beer specials, $1 oysters, and a rock cod taco not usually on the dinner menu.
SFist: Crudo raises the bar for fish tacos with their hearty fillets of local rock cod, seared to a delicate crisp and served on a pillow of guacamole, topped off with fresh greens and pickled onions. Read more.
jenny t: happy hour oysters, marinated mussels & cod fish tacos were all amazing. friendly and attentive service as well!
