Yonsei Handrolls - Oakland

“This was a surprise dinner my friend invited me on. The hand rolls are so fresh and delicious. I had 5 amazing rolls that come out one at a time for freshness m. The server was super sweat and helped me pick out what I wanted. The menu does also have set options, but I decided to do individual rolls. I definitely recommend stopping by if you’re in the Oakland area.”

“Delicious handrolls, no pretentiousness, and well timed service. Perfect spot for date night with the lover or friends. Very decently priced for the quality and presentation. Didn’t try any of the cocktails, but the yuzu lemonade was so fresh!”

“Had the baller set and loved it. They were so generous with the tuna caviar and uni hand rolls (unlike other hand roll bars). The price is so much better than similar hand roll bars in sf. Will be coming back!”

“Yonsei makes really tasty handrolls and they have a ton of varieties to choose from. The black cod and salmon belly are especially nice. I love the sets and they even have a lunch special. The service is super friendly and quick, and I've never had any complaint here. It's super conveniently located and I'll definitely continue to come back!”

“I had a reservation for one and was seated at the hightop window corner. The website stated they were booked up, but I was able to call and get a seat. It's an intimate cozy place. My server was attentive and kind, and my favorite item ended up being her recommendation, the negihama (yellowtail & green onion) The rest of the rolls were just okay. The scallop and shiso leaf roll was decent. Salmon belly/yuzu/truffle salt and spicy tuna tempura roll weren't bad, but weren't memorable. I got about 4 rolls and a drink for about $50 and left satisfied, but not overly full. Restrooms are attached to the ramen restaurant next door.”
