Delicious food; definitely on the bougie and pricey side with not necessarily large portions, but I think it was well worth it if you go in knowing what to expect. I think the highlight of the night has got to be the scallops with the uni sauce; which had such a strong uni flavour and very cool aromas from the actively smokey charcoals they serve the scallops over. Make sure not to lose a single ikura through the grates! Other high points i’d recommend include the salmon and ikura benedict and the matcha brulee! Cocktails were also great.
Restaurant had a lot of open seats at 6:30pm on a Tuesday night. Lots of free street parking around here. You order all your food online on a running tab for your table. Prices are expensive, but quite valuable. The smoked poke was a highlight and the veggie tempura was very fresh and worth it. They don 't have a lot of basic Japanese cuisine like sushi or curry rice, but instead have a menu filled with really interesting items. Staff are very nice and attentive. Thank you!
Love the environment and the vibe hard to describe what it is but it’s vivid, lively, chill, and comfortable. Food is great. Uni rice is a must try. Drinks are good. Tried both takeout as well as dine in both good options. If I can have one complaint (more so of a recommendation , I spent $70 here for a meal but I was still hungry after it… a slightly bigger portion would be fantastic! Doesn’t change my 5 star rating though.
We finally got the chance to try this place and it did not disappoint. The niboshi ramen is something we have been looking for and couldn't find since Japan, but they are the only place that has this in all of the bay area. Wow! It was amazing! The service did not disappoint either and we will be back... Maybe tomorrow. LoL

Don’t worth the money. The food is ok, but I don’t think it worth of the price. With this price, you can have decent okamase in bay area. In additional, the uni is the worse uni I ever had. For a restaurant with $100/person, the uni should be much fresher. In all, you can get better food (uni) elsewhere.
Reservation by Google on Wed night dinner for two. Ordered : Sakana Salad fish was still warm Chicken Karaage different taste from other chicken places Spare Ribs perfect for couple(one each) Ikura Salmon Oni Benedict Kemuri Udon good for cold weather
Some of the signature food is good. Especially the signature edamame, Kemuri Udon, and the charcoal grills. It was kind of crowded, but they still have a table for walk-ins on Wed night. I still like to try and find what’s the best menu here.
Impressive good Japanese food. I enjoyed my experience here tremendously, will be back! Second time and still very impressed we got the today’s yaki, wagyu paella, seared mackerel, unagi sliders. Highly recommend!

Surprisingly great food. Had: salmon salad (seasonal) uni flan wagyu garlic rice All tastes great. Recommend all. Portion enough for two people. Was thinking of order more, but was full after.
I’d recommend the wagyu garlic rice, it was delicious! The grilled unagi bowl was ok/average. We went for lunch and the portion was not big but just enough for two of us.
