Angry Fish Sushi

I’ve been coming to Angry Fish for years. A small but, wonderful hidden gem on a busy Main Street in San Leandro. Twin brothers who look alike, JACKIE & VINCENT remembered our orders & drinks immediately as soon as we’re seated. Their sushi rolls are hand rolled, nigiri was fresh, sashimi is outstanding, service is quick and accurate. Come early and hungry for the best experience! Thank You Angry Fish!

Our server went above and beyond for our family while we visited this cozy restaurant from Indiana. He was very understanding and patient with us and explained everything very well. The food was also amazing!!! And reasonably priced!! So happy we found the Angry Fish!! 🐠

Wow, I am incredibly disappointed. This was hands down the worst sushi I’ve ever had. The sushi rice was extremely sweet, almost like sugar had been added to it. When I mentioned it, the manager told me that all of their sushi is made that way and that I should have specifically asked for “regular rice.” I’m sorry, but in 45 years of eating sushi, I have never once had to ask for non-sweet sushi rice. The sweetness mixed with the soy sauce created a strange sweet-and-salty flavor that completely ruined the sushi for me. The fish was also mushy and tasted far from fresh. It was so bad that I literally spit it out. I couldn’t finish it. When I expressed my concerns, the manager refused to do anything and told me I would receive no discount or accommodation whatsoever. Instead, I was told that next time I should ask for regular rice. There won’t be a next time. They got my $30, but they lost a customer for life. Between the overly sweet rice, mushy fish, and complete lack of customer service, this was one of the worst restaurant experiences I’ve had. Shame on management for refusing to make things right.

This spot has quickly become a local favorite, and we've now celebrated multiple birthdays here — it never disappoints. As a photographer and visual person, I'm drawn to places where the food is as beautiful as it is delicious, and this restaurant consistently delivers on both fronts. The staff is welcoming and genuinely helpful. On our most recent visit, we had a wonderful young woman who took real time with her personal recommendations — the kind of service that keeps you coming back. (I also keep my reviews partly so I can remember what to reorder next time!) From the happy hour menu, the Japanese tacos were tasty, though the deep-fried base felt a little heavy for my palate. The seared salmon, on the other hand, was absolutely outstanding — it practically begged to be photographed before eating. The sushi rolls are where this place truly shines. Our ride-or-die orders are the Sunshine roll and the ahi tower — we get them every single visit. Past favorites include the SF Giants roll, perfectly balanced with a jalapeño kick, and the Girl on Fire, which is impressively satisfying though slightly heavy on the tempura dusting. The Angry Mermaid was a hit too, though a touch lemony — we'd order it again and just ask for less lemon. Our new obsession is the Titanic — tuna, salmon, and shrimp tempura — which was simply amazing. Our server also recommended the Butterfly roll for next time, so that's already on the list. We also ventured into the shrimp pizza, which was a fun and unexpected surprise. I loved it, even if my family may not want to get it the next time. The wide menu, gorgeous plates, and genuine hospitality make this a place we'll keep coming back to for every celebration.

Incredible restaurant. Some of the best sushi in the Bay Area! A hidden gem. The restaurant is small, good amount of parking in the back. We really enjoyed: - Bento boxes, can’t go wrong. Miso is large along with huge serving of tempura - Sex on the beach sushi roll was our favorite - Service was fast and attentive, affordable pricing We look forward to coming back and supporting this family owned business! 10/10 recommend.
