    Excellent sushi made by fully-dedicated sushi master. It delivers sushi to wherever you are around the city, but dining-in would gives you better taste and freshness and beautiful plating of the sushi plus a bit of performance on how the suahi is made. Call for reservation as Sushi San only have very limited space for dine-in. The best salmon sashimi in town is served here.

    The best sushi experience I've had. The chef spoke to us the whole time he was preparing, telling us about the dish, the ingredients, the shop, and past customers. We watched everything made right in front of us. The Miso soup was really good, I'd never had good Miso before. The California roll was one of my favorites, and the eel sashimi and shrimp sashami was great. Their wasabi was also really tasty. Highly recommended if you're in Sarajevo!

    For sure THE BEST SUSHI in Sarajevo and complete Bosnia, I am sorry that I have any pictures, but I think that taking pictures at the time as the Sushi Chef prepare the food or I got already prepared ones on my table, iz will be for sure disrespectful. I can only highly recommend this place for all people which like great and fresh prepared 🍣 enjoy!

    By far, the best Sushi we’ve had in Europe. And we’ve had a lot of it! Amazing fresh fish, artfully presented in a cozy environment filled with Jazz music. We will be back in Sarajevo just for the sushi!

    One of the best sushi experiences in Europe! The owner and chef was really welcoming fb and it was super amazing to interact and hear from him. You sit at the sushi bar and can watch each price getting made perfectly. The sushi itself was really amazing too and definitely connected with the west coast vibe and Japanese style. I was able to order nigiri separately and each piece was really amazing. I would highly recommend visiting and enjoying this amazing sushi experience!

    One of my favorite places to be and definitely the best sushi in Sarajevo. The owner (and main chef) is a really an artist and I enjoy watching the process of making sushi. He puts love and passion in everything he does.

    With no doubt, best sushi place on Balkan. Only thing that disappointed me was there was no ingredient for Ikura gunkan on the day I visited. Chef will give you best sushi in Sarajevo, with some interesting conversations. I would visit Sarajevo again only to taste chef’s Ikura Gunkan.

    The tastiest sushi in the town and beyond. It is a small place but cosy, where you are able to sit and watch the chef prepare the sushi for you. Fresh fish, great rice. They make their own pickled ginger and luckily one can buy a jar from them. When we crave something good, healthy, tasty and high-quality, we go for this place.

    This is one of the best places for sushi I have ever tried. Truly a hidden gem in Sarajevo. The owner Darco was very welcoming and made the sushi right Infront of us. The place closes at 6pm so make sure you reach here early.

    I've never ate inside, only been there to pick up my order. It's a small cozy venue, the staff are pleasant and nice. I would say if you want to eat sushi in Sarajevo this is the only place you should try. I would suggest to call and order for pick up cause they don't have reservations and it's a small place so easy to fill up.

    Very authentic, small, hidden gem a bit to the side from the touristic centre. Top level sushi in open kitchen bar style setting. Complimented by chef's small talk and stories. It's said that the Japanese ambassador liked it ✅

    Excellent sushi spot, despite me being weary of sushi in Sarajevo at first. Decided to go due to the excellent reviews. Only 6 spots so it fills up quickly. Got nigiri, sashimi and maki and all were fantastic. The chef clearly knows what he is doing and caters well to his guests. Everything tasted delicious. Would highly recommend!

    So far, an amazing sushi restaurant, the attention was good all the time and the owner is really nice as well as the people who works there, you can tell the dedication, therefore the food was delicious. For sure I will return!

  • 5/5 Tiffany S. 2 years ago on Google
    Sushi with a side of personality, please! This man is passionate and will not give you the typical “people pleasing” experience. Sit down, order some rolls, nigiri, miso soup (a must!) and/or sashimi, and savour it. And go early! It’s small and the food stops a little before close. If you get the chance to chat with them, I suggest it. It’s not just the food that makes the experience, it’s these two interesting men behind the bar as well.

  • 5/5 Lena H. 2 years ago on Google
    As a sushi lover I gotta to say that this is the best Sushi I ever ate! The prices are decent, the sushi is super delicious and they have a lot of variety. The chef is super kind and explains a lot about the making of sushi and how to eat it the proper japanese way, I recommend this to everyone from the bottom of my heart :)

  • 5/5 ghjybyf 10 months ago on Google
    I visited this cozy establishment and was pleasantly surprised by its vibe and the quality of the food. The dishes were tasty and prepared with great care. Only fresh ingredients were used, and their flavor exceeded all my expectations. The owner of this place made a special impression on me. They emitted energy and a passion for Eastern culture. Their presence created a unique atmosphere, and I felt as if I had stepped into the heart of the East. The chefs were friendly and welcoming. They cooked each dish with skill and attention to detail. I could feel the care they put into every plate. The establishment itself was small, but that's what created its cozy vibe. I felt at home and enjoyed every moment spent there. I appreciated the intimate setting they created, where I could relax and savor delicious food. The background music, with its light jazz, added charm and appeal to the establishment. It played softly, complementing the cozy interior and excellent cuisine. Overall, I am very satisfied with my visit to this establishment. The food was tasty, the ambiance was inviting and cozy, and the owner and staff created a special mood that made me feel like a welcomed guest. I will definitely return here again and recommend this place to my friends and family.

    Not only best sushi, but best restaurant I’ve eaten in Sarajevo. The quality and taste rivaled places in US and Asia. Darko and his team are super friendly and welcoming! We had a great time and will be back. High recommendation!

  • 5/5 Leo F. 2 years ago on Google
    Undoubtedly the best sushi in town. The staff is very kind and professional and the food is amazing. Highly recommend!

  • 5/5 Gustavo R. 1 year ago on Google
    Just by talking briefly to the owner you can see that they’re taking their job seriously, it’s highly professional. Since it’s a “seat in front of the cuisine” type of place you can see that each sushi piece is made with extreme care. Ingredients are fresh, workers are very pleasant, even the jazz playing in the background is relaxing as you see your pieces getting made. Forget the “generic sushi place”, this is the real deal. I’d go back a million times.

  • 5/5 tina n. 1 year ago on Google
    A sushi experience like the one you'll get at Sushi San is rare. The owner and staff are all lovely and skillful and you can tell there's passion behind every piece, that all have distinctive tastes and feel like a piece of heaven in your mouth. If you happen to be in Bosnia and like Japanese food, you absolutely need to visit this place!

    We did lunch and it was great. Good sushi, great music and a great vibe overall.

  • 5/5 Edvin K. 1 year ago on Google
    Amazingly good menu. We tried various picks and got our jaws down how great every bite was. Tuna, Salmon, rolls, everything is impeccable. Even our youngest one loved hers first sushi specially made 😊
