"It’s not easy to find sushi in SoMa, particularly if you'd rather not fork over $300 for an omakase. But with Ebiko in the neighborhood, there's a more affordable grab-and-go option where you can get a couple of rolls for less than $20. Like its original Oakland location, the SoMa spot’s set-up is simple. Just choose whatever you want from the refrigerated display case and be on your way (snag a bag or two of the Japanese rice crackers while you're at it). Ebiko mostly does to-go boxes filled with single-serving maki and nigiri. If you see the seven-piece omakase set or the salmon aburi, get them before anyone else can. The fish tastes fresh and the salmon is tender with a smoky char. For the risk-averse, order ahead online and check in with the staff when you get there." - Patrick Wong
