When you find yourself across the bridge, you have to go get sushi at Sushi Ran in Sausalito, CA. It is by far the best sushi I have had in the Bay Area. Zagat ranked it one of the top five restaurants in the area. It was awarded on Michelin star in 2007. The spinach salad is unlike anything you've ever had, rolled up tightly, with a delicious black sesame dressing. Their spicy scallop hand roll is a creamy, spicy cone of goodness. Another good hand roll option is the softshell crawfish, with miso aoili. My favorite maki roll would be the Crunchy, which is eel, avocado, aonori powder, tempura flakes, spicy crab and shrimp. For nigiri, the toro is a bit pricey but the way it melts in you mouth makes it worth the $9. They have two different building areas for seating. If you go for lunch on a weekday, you'll be okay but if you try to go on a weekend make a reservation and still expect to wait. But it's worth it! Just have a drink at the bar from the 200+ bottle wine list.
