Handroll Project

The handrolls are very tasty, although quite small. One person could easily eat six alone. The service felt a bit stiff, and the stools definitely work best with squishy butts. Overall I'm happy I finally gave them a try, although I'm not in a hurry to go back.

I didn’t have a bad roll. However, for the value, there are better places in SF for tasty sushi. I also found the service a bit lacking. Unlike at most sushi bars, when you sit at the bar, you chat with the chef and can vary your order to your taste. There are no substituting or altering the rolls. Make sure to scan the QR code on the menu to check out the specials. Dietary restrictions: No substitutions or customization available.

The menu is somewhat limited, while some rolls are tasty it feels like your eating the same thing over..nice concept, fairly expensive, but food does not deliver overall..

Great service. Atmosphere is a little cold but okay. Food is good but a little over-hyped and expensive for what you get, even by SF standards. Some unique combinations of ingredients on the hand rolls and solid execution. Enjoyed myself for the novelty but won't be back due to the price.

Trying to get an affordable omakase in this city is next to impossible, but I think Handroll Project got it right. Not necessarily named an omakase, but you can opt for a prefixed 5 handroll $36 or 7 handroll $55. We went rogue from the prefix and tried all the specials. Don’t sleep on the smoked uni. It was packed full of flavor with the soft buttery texture you expect from quality urchin. The monkfish liver handroll was the unexpected star of the show. They freeze the fatty liver and shave on top a bed of sushi rice and roe. It’s delightfully delicate and must be eaten quickly before it melts like a savory shaved ice. My hands smelt like monkfish all night, and I’d do it again in a heartbeat. I mean, we did- we ordered a second round of it.
