"Highly recommend. Shiro Kuma has the best customer service I have experienced in Marin County, and I do not say that lightly. As soon as we walked in the door, we were greeted. As soon as we sat down, we were brought menus, and our drink order was taken. Within a reasonable period time, someone came to take our initial order. My husband dropped a napkin, and a server showed up out of nowhere with a replacement, (without us even having to ask . The staff struck a reasonable balance between giving us time to enjoy our date night and checking in to see if we needed additional.Anyway, we started with kuma oyster shooters, and they were so surprisingly good! I have never had anything like that! Then, we got the the toro sashimi, which melted in my mouth. Toro is my favorite. To drink, we had hot tea and a beer, and I love the cast iron teapot in which they served me. Anyway, we also enjoyed the hamachi ceviche, which was so delicious and smooth and came with these lotus(? chips that added great texture. Then, we got rolls! The dynamite roll was not what we usually get when we order a dynamite roll, so we have more hamachi. It was good! The lion king was also really solid. I love the torched salmon on top. The kuma low carb roll was a great add, too. Something is just so refreshing about sushi wrapped in cucumber, and the also came with salmon roe and a couple types of fish. Would order again. For dessert, we had the matcha gelato, which was super interesting and had great flavor and texture. Great food. Great place for a fancy date night! Love it!"

We had really good sushi at Shiro Kuma. We had other sushi restaurants in / around Larkspur tried and they were meh or meh and wow that was expensive! Shiro Kuma was great and very reasonable (like, not Marin price! Everything was really good. They even had fish livers! You don't see that much in the USA. View menu

This place is good, and we've made multiple visits because its within walking distance. It has a solid menu, and you can get a lot of stuff for a reasonable price. They have a nice variety of rolls and special rolls, plus teriyaki and tempura, as well as a handful of yummy side dishes. And it's a nice little atmosphere when you eat inside too.

This sushi restaurant stands out from others in the area. The sushi is incredibly fresh and uniquely delicious, giving me the feeling as if I were dining in Japan. My top choices are the Kuma Low Carb wrapped in cucumber, Ichiban Fried Roll, and Lucky Lotus Kuma Treat. I was disappointed to learn that they are no longer available on delivery apps, but I can still order for pick up using the Toast app.

The restaurant experience was average. I won't nitpick because I understand times are tough. The restaurant was not very busy when I arrived as a party of one. They reserved larger tables for dinner crowds, so I was seated at a smaller table in a less desirable area. The menu had good options, but they were out of red wine and some beer choices. Overall, the food was decent but not exceptional. I hope the restaurant can improve and find success in the future. View menu

Best sushi in town. Have been going since they opened years ago and never been disappointed. Fresh, flavorful, unique rolls. Service is attentive and considerate. Ambiance is calm, clean. Azteca roll is crisp and unique- fresh hibachi flavor with picked carrot and asparagus, with thin sliced fresh jalapeño and fish egg will forever be something I craveOkinawa, Habachi Asparagus, Kuma Over The Rainbow.. can't go wrong. I've brought guests from all over here and everyone loved it. Give them a try, you won't be disappointed.

Absolutely beautiful time in Shiro Kuma. It wasn't too busy. I sat right away. Chairs are comfortable, table was clean. A nice sampling of her sushi to try a bit of everything. The Miso was hot pierced and the edamame was beautifully salted, not too heavy. I couldn't help but start enjoying the Miso and edamame before I get this picture! The dining area with more guests picked up, the speed and care of the staff did not decrease easily. They were attentive and refilled drinks before they had to be asked. The sushi was delicious, almost creamy with how fresh it was. Some sushi restaurants can be met between the types of fish, but Shiro Kuma was constantly high quality throughout. The rice for...
