I drive from the east bay to get their fresh salmon sashimi. My wife, who is not a fan of any fish let alone raw... And she loves Yum Yum salmon sashimi

This place is a must if you live in the sunset or richmond districts. The fish is always fresh and delicious, and if you order by the pound (or half, or quarter pound) it is so cheap it's practically daylight robbery. seriously, a pound of salmon for ~$11? Plus $2 for them to slice it for you. The only con to this place is that I'd say only ~75% of the time is the fish amazing. Don't get me wrong, the other 25% of the time it's good, just not amazing like the other times. Also, sometimes the cuts of fish still have a little bit (tiny sliver really) of skin on it which I don't like. As I almost always order take-out I will in these cases slice off the skin at home. Regardless, this place is amazing and one of only 3-4 regular places I would eat at while living in the outer Richmond district. Enjoy! And be willing to give it more than one chance
Pros: fresh fish, cheap
Cons: little bit inconsistent but worth it!

i simply wanted fresh tuna so i could prepare some tuna tartar tonight. i called 30 minutes before hand to ask if their tuna was fresh enough so i could make my tartar tonight and when it was shipped to them. yes, and this morning.
pleased, i picked some up and brought it home to find it SMELLY AND SOFT. i returned to their fish market 20 minutes later for a refund and the owner was a RUDE RUDE RUDE RUDE, telling me that he can't sell it to another customer so he wouldn't give me my money back. he said that he didn't know what I did to it because i'd taken it out of his fish market. frankly, he shouldn't have sold it to anyone else. it WASN'T FRESH as he told me on the phone an hour earlier.
the sushi is fair, but the market part is unacceptable and the owner's customer service crappy. i'll never go back even though i used to like them.
Pros: cheap
Cons: cheap

People don't come to Yum Yum Fish for the ambiance- they come for the super fresh sushi. This place is basically a fish shop with a counter that sells sushi grade fish and seafood. There are also 3 tables in the front where you can sit and enjoy a variety of sushi and sashimi at quite low prices. There are both traditional and modern rolls- try the rock and roll or the fresh scallop roll. The salmon skin roll and soft shell crab is great too. Hawaiian style tuna poke as well! We always get the Orchid set which has 8-9 pieces of nigiri and spicy tuna roll- great deal for only $12. They also cater sushi, with platters going from $40- $80. Typically I'd get my order to go as the store does smell overwhelmingly of fish.

New to the city and had to find fresh fish because there are so many sushi restaurants in the city. This shop is actually a fish shop that has a sushi chef making sushi mostly togo. There are 3 small tables so not ideal for large group dining. The fish is immaculately fresh. I have had sushi all over the states and this is as fresh as it gets. And most amazing is the price. Hamachi belly and toro for $2 a piece. I wanted to try everything!! I can't recommend this place more if you're not caring too much for ambiance, but love great sushi.
Pros: cheap, fresh, fast
Cons: not much seating, no ambiance

Hands down, my favorite "quickie" sushi place. The sushi here is cheap, fresh, and fairly creative. I love the yellowtail with mango roll, for example. Prices can't be beat, and the fish is the freshest I've had. This isn't a place for a nice, sit-down meal, however. Your best bet is to order take-out and eat it at home or go to Golden Gate Park for a nice picnic.
Pros: cheap, ultra fresh, quick
Cons: no place to eat there

This is by far not the most romantic or nicest sushi place in San Francisco, but it is the place to go if you want some fantastic sushi at amazingly low prices. It still operates as a fish shop, where you can buy some really great fish – so the ambiance is lacking. But it more than makes up for it by the quality, freshness, and price of the sushi!

Yum Yum Fish is Japanese owned and operated. It's 1/2 fish market, 1/2 sushi counter, so the fish used in the sushi is extremely fresh, and is sold at or near wholesale price. For example, a 2-piece order of maguro here is $2.40; at any other decent sushi restaurant, it'll be around $4.00. This is more of a "deli" style place, and it closes at 7:30, so it's not a place you'd go to for a nice dinner. But it is great if you want to get great, fresh fish at a cheap price. They have a few small tables for dining in, too. Service is always good.
Pros: Fresh fish, Tastes good, Cheap
Cons: Not a "restaurant", Closes by 7:30

Bar none the best quality fish in the city, the bay area, or perhaps the world !
One can easily spend three times as much for sushi that is almost (but not quite) as good, sure you will get 'ambiance' and a 'waiter' -- but if you want masterfully prepared fresh fish then head over to yum yum.
