Omakase featuring rare fish sourced from Japan, special rice
"Sushi Salon earned its stripes as a roving sushi pop-up, appearing at both Oakland’s Fish & Bird Izakaya and Ramen Shop in the leadup to the opening of their eight-seat sushi counter in Oakland. Chef Joji Nonaka hails from Michelin Guide-listed Utzutzu, as does partner Anna Osawa, and the duo now offers an omakase menu highlighting fish from renowned fish concierge Hiroki Hasegawa." - Luke Tsai
"Sushi Salon began as an East Bay pop-up from chef Joji Nonaka and Anna Osawa, both formerly of Utzutzu, but now the duo have landed in their own space in Oakland. Expect the same high-quality sushi the team became known for through its pop-ups, but now in an eight-seat restaurant. Diners will feast on a multi-course omakase menu highlighting fish from acclaimed fish concierge Hasegawa Hiroki." - Dianne de Guzman
"Sushi Salon is a tiny fish counter in the Longfellow neighborhood of Oakland with only eight seats. Their 18-course $195 omakase menu focuses on sourcing tough-to-find fish like flying gurnard and soldierfish straight from Japan. " - Ricky Rodriguez

"I've been following the arrival of this new Oakland mini-sushi spot, which opens to the public at 6 p.m. on Wednesday, December 13 at 4008 Martin Luther King Jr. Way; chef-owners Joji Nonaka and Anna Osawa have prepared a 500-square-foot omakase space that sources rare fish—including flying gurnard from Kanagawa Prefecture and Japanese soldierfish—reservations for opening nights and subsequent dates are available through Resy, and the team sent an email expressing heartfelt gratitude for supporters." - Paolo Bicchieri
