    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!
