The 23 Best Restaurants In Oakland

"Mujiri is the best sushi deal in Oakland. The $25 nigiri and maki combo is their bread and butter and what draws us to this low-key Japanese spot on San Pablo Ave. It comes with seven pieces and a chef’s choice maki roll, and they all star high-quality fish and plump, well-seasoned rice. If you’re in the mood to round out the meal with more (you should, since this is some of the best sushi in town), add on the well-stuffed negi toro handrolls, or the nigiri and sashimi specials presented to you on a beach ball-sized tray like a gift." - lani conway, julia chen 1
