Fantastic sushi

by emrubin at Citysearch

This is one of the best places I have found in the bay area. They have a broad selection of super fresh sushi, a great selection of sake to compliment the meal, and a friendly professional staff that goes out of their way for the customer.

Great Bargain and Value

by mokorama at Citysearch

I'm Japanese and have eaten in many Japanese restaurants in both Northern and Southern California. Kamakura is one of the best overall. The prices are really low, especially compared to most Japanese establishments in L.A. or S.F, while their quality and freshness remain high. The service is pretty attentive and efficient and it's a busy place for a small town, family-oriented business. When you consider all the variables, Kamakura really is a great choice and bargain for family and singles alike.

  • Pros: Low Prices, Fast Service, Fresh Fish
  • Cons: Might Wait on Weekends, Limited Street Parking

Very good sushi!

by bello_farfalla at Citysearch

I just moved to the area and I have to say that my favorite spot is Kamakura. Be warned that there is usually a bit of a wait on the weekends. The sushi is great, the staff is friendly and after every meal they give you a sample of some very tastey plum wine.

  • Pros: Price, sushi and staff
  • Cons: the wait, parking and small building
