Great late night vibes. Some of the best gyoza I've had. Everything was so good I forgot to take pics.

Late night waterhole with great seasonal selection of sushi, sashimi, traditional Japanese treats you won't find in 99% other Japanese joints in SF (Natto roll, anyone?). Wonderers from all corners of life gather late to indulge.

Hands down the best sushi I've had on this side of the Pacific. I lived in Japan a while and, even with that history in mind, this place really impressed me. Authenticity through and through with very attentive service and stellar food. I like the atmosphere, the "dive" aesthetic, and the unique electronic playlist.
