All of the courses were delicious and the service was wonderful. They also were great at making changes on the fly to the omakase menu depending on what you liked/disliked. Would definitely recommend and the price was good considering the number of courses and how high quality they all were from start to finish.

The service was very impressive and the food was fantastic. The gourmet feel and explanation of each item on the pre fixe menu was awesome. Definitely will go here again. It is pricey, but worth it.

Fish wasn’t very fresh. A5 wagyu bowl was pretty disappointing, I feel like I could get the same thing in a normal Chinese restaurant. The Japanese uni was great, but SB uni was really bitter. Overall wouldn’t complain too much with a 195 dollar per person omakase experience in SF, but the I did expect better.

We had an amazing experience. Dining at this restaurant was superb. It was decadent and over-the-top. It’s a great way to treat yourself to an amazing meal with great food and lavish proteins that were methodically created. Our host Allan Le made our night. He was super friendly and knowledgeable of everything that was served and created such a fun experience couldn’t thank you enough. Our chef was highly skilled and worked hard with the delicate proteins that were served. Thank you to the staff and the establishment of this restaurant.

Highlights are the food and the service. Definitely one of the best omakase experiences we had in the Bay Area. This place is definitely a bit of a hidden gem - surprised it wasn’t as difficult to book a reservation.
