    We love sushi Ran! It’s our favorite Japanese restaurant in Marin. The quality is fresh. There are a lot of options for our little kids who are foodies - they even eat Ikura! The miso cod is one of our favorite items on the menu. The scallop roll is our favorite roll. Yoshi san (the owner) offers fun and unique premium sales from Japan! He knows where each bottle is from and changes the same menu seasonally. We love coming here to unwind after a long day of work or for a celebration!

    Always enjoy this dining spot, great food and service. Only problem I had this visit was the staff and a couple patrons were using the emergency exit which was next our table! it was COLD. Often they would not close it completely finally commented and it slowed down use! Its an emergency exit!
