I like this place.. I agree that it's not the BEST sushi in SF, but it's okay and I've never felt that it's not fresh or problematic in any way. The service at tables is pretty slow, sit at one of the bars (sushi or drinking) if possible and your service greatly improves. Personally, I like sitting at the bar upfront, having a few drinks (strawberry lemonade - very good!) and ordering a few plates to share with a friend rather than making a sit-down meal of it. The atmosphere - always loud, poppy or electronic music (if you can hear it over the diners), usually film playing against the wall near the entrance. It always seems very clean in the restaurant, which is important to me especially when having sushi. There can be a wait for a table, if you have a large party, you might send someone ahead, or put in your name and wait at Kilowatt. ”

Great deals on delicious sushi and drinks in their happy hour along with innovative but subtle combos. It's the first place I've seen wasabi-infused tobiko (I think it was.) Even though the crowd is trendier than thou (or maybe AS thou), the staff are very friendly. Now I can say I ate a raw quail egg - and it wasn't half bad. The handrolls had big chunks of fish. ”

I love Tokyo Go Go, which is similiar to Blowfish sushi (also good) but more moderate in price. I always go for the Azteca roll and last night I tried the Golden Gate roll and it was delicious. Service is mediocre, but if you sit at the sushi bar, it's much better. ”

| “ Good sushi but I think the trendy ambiance makes them think they can charge more for the same thing you can get for 25% less anywhere else. The cocktails are overpriced and they are greedy with the alcohol. I'd go back if invited by friends, but probably not on my own. ”

| “ TGG I've been going to TGG for years...I give a positive IF you happen to be siting at the sushi bar, and a NEG for anywhere else. The table service has been consistently awful (disinterested/too-cool-for-school waitresses) for parties of 2 and mediocre at best for 2+ On the positive, the sushi chefs are attentive, helpful and really worth the visit. Great quiality fish and creative rolls. Decent drinks, although overpriced and on the light side. Prices have crept up as service has declined...there are way better sushi joints in the city ”

| “ If you want to go for Handroll Happy Hour (5:30-7 M-Sat, 5-6:30 Sun), then this place is GREAT! Going on the earlier side and sitting at the bar with a pal is a great way to go regardless, but just in general, it's the only time when it's worth going. Their prices are a little high for what they serve, which is why the happy hour is key. ”

| “ After hearing much about Tokyo Go Go, I decided to check out for dinner on a Monday night. The cucumber gimlet was refreshing and quite good. We ordered a bunch of sashimis and the golden gate roll (it was OK) and the Azteca roll. The Azteca was my favorite since its a bit spicy and comes with jalapeno toppings :)
The dessert looked good (included ice cream and mochi to name a few) but we were too full to order any more food :)

Go during Happy Hour for the best deals. Is you are looking for a cool vibe, a place to hang with a bunch of your friends and some interesting cocktails, this is the place. ”

| “ The best sushi in the Mission by far. Definitely pricy, but worth it. All the traditional rolls are great, and they have some really creative offerings as well. DON'T skip the cooked options, they have some really great fish on the menu. If you sit at the bar and complement the chef, he will hook you up with free tastings. The live scallop and salmon skin are the best in the city. Great cocktail list, and very swanky hip decor. ”

| “ This sushi restaurant and full-bar serves up wonderfully fresh and innovative sushi (and japanese standards) in a hip setting to a young 20 & 30-something crowd. The happy hour is a wonderful deal: ~9 $3 handrolls to choose from, $2 draft beers & $2 sakes. Both the waitstaff and the sushi-san were friendly. Gets crowded on weekend nights so make a reservation if 4 or more. If only party of 2, highly recommend sitting at the sushi bar. ”

They changed their menu and removed a lot of the cooked food, so make sure people in your crew want sushi only. Definitely make a reservation. ”
