Keiko Fish is becoming one of my favorite places to visit in the Bay. I love driving there for a day trip to have a wonderful lunch and walking around the town of Larkspur. The staff is really nice and I have really enjoyed interacting with them. The rolls I love the most are the Dragon roll and spicy scallop. As for Nigiri, I recommend their black cod nigiri and Inari nigiri. There is seating inside the restaurant but you can always get your food to go and sit outside with your doggy. I love the picnic tables outside.

Consistently fresh and delish! I tend to over order here but my favs are the salmon rolls, salmon nigiri, and black cod nigiri. I drive an hour for this sushi and it compares quite evenly with Sushi Ran.

Everything was spectacular here at Keiko Fish! By far the BEST sushi I've had in years. Tops my list for best sushi in Marin. But don't listen to me because I don't want it gaining too much popularity and becoming hard to get a table. lol. This place is pricey (honestly, worth every penny) so be careful when ordering because what's written on the white board/specials are sold by the piece not in pairs (which I think most are accustomed to) for this style is both brilliant and unfortunate. It's a great way to try new and unique pieces but not for your date, they don't get a bite. Trust me - this place is a superstar and I can't wait to indulge again soon. The staff was wonderful so friendly and knowledgeable even met the owner who's back behind the counter popping out fantastic dish after fantastic dish. Atmosphere is lovely, small, quaint and warm thanks to the open kitchen which also entertains the wondering eye. I wish I wasn't so obsessed with the food and remembered to take pics of all the dishes. (Only the first dish got photo opp.) Spicy Tuna on top of crispy rice, Avocado and eel sauce.

Keiko has so much to offer. We tried the crispy rice spicy tuna, yellowtail jalapeño appetizer, sparkling sake, miso soup, medium fatty tuna, and salmon nigiri- all very well prepared. The Wagyu nigiri with a bump of caviar on top is heavenly. The yellowtail scallion roll is delicious and simple. The service is quick and attentive. Pretty small seating area so I recommend making a reservation.

Amazing fresh sushi with attentive service. I love this little gem of a sushi bar surrounded on all sides by italian restaurants This is a lovely quiet and understated restaurant with attentive service and highly competent sushi chefs. I really like the sashimi appetizer plate but chef Yoshi San also has his own special creations like crispy rice with spicy tuna. The quality of the fish is top rate and i can speak to the Toro and Uni as being my favourites.

We saw that this place had great reviews, so we decided to stop in an early dinner on a Saturday night. Starting with the ambiance and location: the restaurant is very clean, so aesthetically pleasing to the eye and on the smaller size. There's a bar that seats probably 6ish people, and maybe 6-10 tables depending on party sizes. Super charming inside. Pretty decent street parking and family friendly (although it was kind of tough to squeeze our stroller in there). Service was good, could be better. Our waitress forgot to put in one of our orders, so we needed to remind her about it, and I actually overheard that she did the same thing with the table right next to us. They were all very friendly and food came out pretty quickly! The food was amazing. It's a smaller menu (which I prefer) and their omakase looked amazing. I'll have to try it next time. The Crispy Spicy Tuna is a must and their Spicy Tuna Handrolls are amazing. I love spicy tuna, but I find that most restaurants just mix the tuna with mostly sriracha and call it a day. Theirs is very flavorful, perfect amount of spicy and if there is sriracha in it, I couldn't taste it at all. We did some rolls and edamame and miso soup and it was all so good! Overall, will be back and definitely recommend.

A lunch stop recently, I had been looking for a good lunchtime sushi alternative in Marin. Found this place on Yelp - Keiko Fish is located just outside of the main downtown business stretch on Magnolia Avenue. For those who toil at the parking situation on Magnolia, you'll be pleased to know that this restaurant is located in a little cluster of shops that has ample parking behind it in a dedicated lot. There were a few other patrons enjoying lunch when I arrived, just after 12:30. I sat at the sushi bar - the space felt inviting. I ordered a glass of sparkling wine after a bit of a wait. I also ordered a special roll, called the Diablo roll (pretty certain - it's not in their regular menu). Shrimp tempura, scallop, crab and asparagus with eel sauce. I always want to try the salmon sashimi at a new sushi spot because for me that is what gives a sense of how things will taste on the whole. If the salmon is outstanding, it says something for me. They sell nigiri by the piece, so I ordered a shiro maguro and a hamachi - one each. Overall, the fish was clean, fresh and delicious. The salmon belly sashimi was very good -- definitely not the best I've ever had, but I would have it again. The nigiri was correctly proportional - not too much rice for a nice piece of fish. They did not provide wasabi with any of my food, and it was not on the table - no ginger either. I suppose I could have asked, but I was already kind of pressed for time. The roll - although tasty - was extremely hot. Honestly took away from the enjoyment. I liked the flavor combinations though. Overall, a very good lunch. I always feel disappointed expressing any challenges I have at a restaurant that has a great vibe and kind staff. But I will say that I waited 25 minutes to even order. That kind of put me under pressure timewise to start with. It all turned out fine, but I will definitely say they could use another person to help out, even with a small space. If one person has four tables going in various stages of being seated, served or cashing out, service is definitely going to take a step back. I also don't quite understand why my roll was so hot. I expect that the tempura was pre-done, as well as the scallop. Perhaps it was on the heat too long before being placed on top of the cut roll. Still, the very kind staff, the good food, decent wine and bubbles choices, convenient parking and relatively reasonable prices warrant a 4 star rating. Perhaps I will return and try a different roll and see how things go on a different day.

I absolutely love this place. I almost always get the Tokyo and I usually add the Wagyu beef nigiri or the Tamago. This past visit I had the crispy spicy tuna. OMG. This dish was so good. On my next visit I might order 3 plates of crispy spicy tuna.

Nice space that formerly housed a hipster ice cream shop was repurposed by Keiko Fish. Keikos contains about 10 tables and a long sushi bar (a former ice cream counter, but you wouldn't know it) and from your seat you can see the action first hand. My favorite item was the tuna crunch with toasted rice, tuna, avocado and unagi sauce as a starter. Rolls ran about $20 but were large and much of the nigiri was about $6-$7 for a single piece of nigiri. The aesthetics in Keiko Fish are clean and bright: dark wood floors, modern cozy dining room, tons of windows. Fish here is plated nicely. The table setting was beautiful. Service seemed like it would be polished, but turned out to be unattentive: servers set down sushi without individual sushi plates or wasabi and ginger, and walked away, and had to be reminded. On the other hand, my nutty green tea was resupplied all night.
