Why We Like It

The art in eating a handroll is not letting it sit too long so the rice doesn’t make the nori too soft. That’s just one nugget of knowledge that will help dining at this Oakland hot spot from Kyle Itani (of Itani Ramen and Good Luck Gato). The vibe is super casual, the room is all '90s hip-hop, neon, and cool pop art.

About Yonsei Handrolls - Oakland

Located in the heart of Uptown Oakland across from the iconic Fox Theater, Yonsei Handrolls serves open-faced Japanese sushi handrolls made with top-notch fish. Sip on sake and Japanese-inspired cocktails, set to a soundtrack of 90s hip hop, and get lit by a Tokyo-inspired neon sign that spells “Yonsei” in English and kanji characters — a nod to Chef Kyle Itani’s Japanese and American heritage.
