Yoshi's Oakland is where world-class jazz meets world-class Japanese cuisine. Chef Shotaro 'Sho' Kamio has created a new dining experience of modern Japanese cuisine using fresh, seasonal ingredients delicately combined with traditional spices. For spectacular food, music and service, Yoshi's hits all the right notes.

Yoshi’s began in 1972 as a small, North Berkeley sushi bar owned by founder and namesake, Yoshie Akiba. Over the next 40 years, Yoshi’s built itself into one of the world’s most respected jazz venues, earning a reputation as the Bay Area’s premier location for great Japanese cuisine and jazz music.

Today, Yoshi’s is an award-winning 310-seat live performance venue with a state-of-the-art sound system and design, occupying 17,000 square feet in the heart of Oakland’s Jack London Square.
