Sushi Sheng: Reviews & Ratings
Fresh and tasty West Portal sushi spot. Eat in or delivery. Fair prices. I'd order from them again.

Sushi Sheng is an absolute gem nestled in the West Portal neighborhood of San Francisco. They serve fresh, high-quality ingredients with impeccable, attentive service. Came here for lunch on a weekday with my friends and enjoyed a variety of foods including oysters, Omakase, sushi rolls, sashimi, beno box and curry (which I forgot to take pictures of). Everything was excellent and fresh. I would love to come back again anytime I'm craving sushi!
Found this place on Yelp since it's pretty close to Stonestown Mall... and it did not disappoint. Parking is a little challenging since there's no designated parking area, it's a street parking kinda thing so you might have to go around a few times. The place is a bit small but cozy. Very busy also. Was able to be seated after 15 minutes of waiting which wasn't too bad. Hubby ordered the omakase while I ordered the lion king roll. We also ordered some potato croquette which was delicious! Staff is super nice and food came out quickly. Will come back again to try their other rolls and bento boxes.
Very fresh and delicious foods and very good service and the restaurant inside looks very clean
Very good assortment of dishes including sushi, bento box combinations, curry rice plates, and appetizers. Service is super polite and attentive. They take reservations via Yelp.
Really like their sashimi combos. A basic restaurant with tables and booths. Service is excellent. Fish quality is great. Otoro is pretty top notch. Stopped by on a Tuesday and the place got packed quick. ** Quick edit: while the food's good, the table seating is spaced too close, and the air circulation kinda sucks (non existent). I think i got a cold from diners in the adjacent table :(
On a Saturday night there were a few couples and a few families with young children. Small and busy, but putting yourself on the Yelp list helps shorten the wait time. Most people were getting rolls. They were good, and I would go back to check out the nigiri.
