What People Are Saying About Angelfish Japanese Restaurant
The Editor

In Short – Expect no less than freshness, quality and authenticity at this restaurant whose interior--rich with dark woods and accented lighting--teems with enthusiastic diners. The menu includes combination dinners (teriyaki, tonkatsu breaded cutlets), sashimi combinations (omakase), seasonal sushi, as well as a carefully crafted sake list. Flavorful appetizers include grilled blackened cod and miso soup with silkened noodles.
Not what I expected
by derbyknows
I heard great things about this place, so I finally gave it a shot-as I usually go to Kai's in Alameda which is closed for remodeling. I was not impressed, though the food was good, it was not great. The sushi rolls were very small & the prices are not so good. Seating was plentiful, however we were seated practically on top of the two other couples in the restaurant....I really miss Kai's-will have to visit the Oakland location.
On the plus side, the decor was lovely & the avocado was really fresh.
- Pros: fresh, easy parking
- Cons: pricey, squished seating, small portions for the price
The single best place for Sushi in the East Bay
by juke315
Nothing compares to Angelfish this side of the bay. Taka, the owner and head sushi chef, has created a restaurant rich with all the things that make a restaurant memorable and worth repeated return visits: fresh, delicious, expertly prepared sushi and authentic Japanese dishes, a warm and welcoming staff, ambience that is both elegant and casual.
The bottom line is the food is amazing, the service is fantastic, and there isn't a single Japanese restaurant in Alameda that even comes close.
- Pros: Food, Service, Ambience
- Cons: None
My favorite sushi restaurant in the East Bay
by dukefuji
I don't understand why people would wait over an hour to eat at another sushi place (that shall remain nameless but is located in South Shore). I would spend my time waiting to eat at Angel Fish instead! I believe Angel Fish first opened in the late 90's - almost 10 years ago and their sushi has been delicious consistently. I've heard friends who have taken friends/colleagues who are from Japan praise the sushi/sashimi at Angel Fish...you really can't get better compliments that that. Their non-sushi menu items isn't as extensive as some other Japanese restaurants. But, if you looking for a satisfying sushi meal, this would be my first choice.
- Pros: Great sushi, Easy parking
- Cons: Can get crowded, A little pricey
