My partner and I had a sushi crazing and decided to finally give this place a try after walking by it so many times. We are so happy we did! The staff is so welcoming and friendly. The portions are generous! We are vegan and though they didn’t have many options, the two rolls, miso soup and agadashi tofu were delicious. We left happy!

The lunch bento box is delicious, and portion size is generous. The pork is juicy and the best part is there is uji time ice cream 5oz for dessert.

Great food and excellent service. Our waitress was really helpful in recommending what to order and she was very sweet and exuberant. The pork ramen was exactly what I was looking for and the pork belly was perfect! Volcano roll was awesome too.

As much as you would like saki (and they never let your cup run dry). Sushi is okay it’s not the best sushi in Oakland, but it is affordable. We go there with friends for the saki and good times, not because we need to settle a craving for sushi. Staff was nice, prices are great. I’d recommend for a fun night out.

Such great ambiance and value. They offer an unlimited box of sake for five bucks extra if you buy a meal of a certain amount. The sushi is fresh, the space is intimate and the service is always great. I love meeting up with friends here, since it’s so centrally located and right by the lake. I would eat here every day if I could afford to.

I have been eating at Coach Sushi for over 15 years. I have a lot of emotion wrapped up in the place. I have spent many a birthday, Christmas Eve, New Years Eve, and Superbowl Sunday sipping boxes of saki, chatting with Coach, and the staff. I was sad when Coach retired. Long gone are the days when he chased me down the street with a bottle of saki to ensure my endless box of saki was always overfilled in a sign of abundance. Over the years the place had become a bit run down. The quality of fish wasn’t the same but I still had my love of the place, so when I walked in last night after being out of town for several months I knew something had changed. The place had a whole new look which was welcoming, but I knew from the faces of the staff and the sushi chef that one of my favorite places had undergone new ownership. My heart sank a little. We sat down at the Sushi Bar and ordered. Gone on the new menu were some of our favorites, but with an open mind we ordered a few nigiri, some dumplings, and a few rolls. The fish slices were nice and fresh. They were bigger than the last sushi chef would cut. The rolls were slightly more interesting. The gyoza, although no longer pan friend, were still hand made and delish. Happy, the new owner was receptive to suggestions like changing the table salt for the saki to a courser grind kosher salt or flake salt. No, this was not MY Coach Sushi, but I think it will be our new old place as we explore the new menu in months to come. Sure sometime a new owner isn’t as good as the old owner, but this new owner sure wants to make the community loved restaurant her own and we will keep coming for another 15 years. Best of luck to Happy and her staff. Thanks for the delicious super fresh oysters and see you soon.

Nice, small sushi restaurant near Lake Merritt. The sushi was good (not amazing), but the kind staff, good prices, and quick service made this an overall great experience. We ordered takeout and had a dinner picnic by the lake!

Wanted to try someplace new and heard about the unlimited sake box here. Ended up not getting it because they don’t offer hot sake in conjunction with said deal. Sashimi is better in many other places. This was also the worst soft shell crab that I’ve ever had. This is also the only place I’ve been to so far which had the Katsu Don and Tofu Misoyaki. The Katsu Don was mediocre. The only thing that stood out this meal was the Tofu Misoyaki.
