Our favorite Japanese restaurant in San Francisco, which has its share of Japanese restaurants! The food is always fresh, delicious, and fairly priced. Their speciality rolls are creative and yummy. David and his staff are always very friendly and accommodating to special requests.

My experience with their Omakase was really good. Sashimi were very fresh. Current price as of December 1, 2022 is $47 for 10 pieces. Service was super. You better make reservation. But the bar table seems not busy when we were there a few days ago. Update on 9/16/2025: the same 10 piece Omakase is much thinner than 3 years ago. The price is increased to more than $60($63). Not recommended anymore. I can understand the price increase, but don’t understand why each cut is thinner.

Owner is AMAZING and makes much of the menu gluten-free. Yay for safe sushi! And, it’s the freshest. There’s always something new to try. Menu is creative and executed well. Reggae music and some cool lighting give it a fun atmosphere. This is my go-to spot!
