This is probably the best and most impressive omakase I’ve had in San Francisco so far. I highly recommend it, especially for special occasions like birthdays or celebrations. The service, the food, everything was absolutely perfect. The freshness of the fish was outstanding. I really loved it and I’ll definitely be back again.

Absolutely amazing experience. I'm sorry to hear that they're going to be on pause while they ramp up their cafe on New Montgomery. But if I could give this place 10 stars, I would. The staff was perceptive, attentive, and inviting. The food was amazing. The presentation, incredible. The attention to detail was superb. The price is not for the faint of heart, but the memory will last a long time.
