The Best Sushi in Alameda, by the Record

Alameda has sent exactly one place into the record so far: Utzutzu, honored by Michelin Guide.

Categories

  1. Rank 1. Utzutzu

    Omakase Sushi

    No sign on the building, a steep staircase to climb, and eight seats at the counter once you get there. This omakase spot in Alameda runs a set menu that moves through composed dishes and precise nigiri, with the cooked courses pulling as much weight as the fish. The Michelin Guide has taken notice. Bring cash, bring patience for the stairs, and don't be surprised if the eggplant is the thing you're still thinking about later.
