If you're staying in the Mission, from most expensive to least, Maruya, Ichi, Kiji, and Sugoi. Maruya is quite a bit fancier than the others. Do not go to Blowfish under any circumstances.
Closer to Fisherman's Wharf, probably Zushi Puzzle. I haven't been but it's well regarded.
In Japantown, Ino, with the caveat that the chef is kind of a sushi nazi and it's not a super friendly atmosphere. Kiss Seafood if you want more of a kaiseki style meal with less sushi emphasis.
All these places are likely to be slammed on a Friday night. Kiji and Sugoi are probably your best bets for not waiting a long time, or maybe Ichi or Zushi if you line up right at opening.
In all honesty SF is not a great sushi town, and if you're not hellbent on sushi you should consider something on
http://sf.eater.com/archives/2014/04...april_2014.php, which is a pretty reasonable list of not crazy expensive places.
