Food is delicious, Wagu is always a great treat.5/15/2013 12:00:00 AMA perfect eveningI cannot speak highly enough of 5A5! My boyfriend and I were celebrating our anniversary and we requested private seating or a private booth. The request was met perfectly and set the tone for the evening. Our waitress, Leila, was knowledgable, attentive, and incredibly warm during the entire evening. We were given two or three plates, compliments of the chef, and the food was absolutely incredibly. We both got the filets and they were cooked perfectly, as were our other courses. The music in the background provided a wonderful setting without being overwhelming. I would recommend this restaurant without hesitation and will definitely be returning!5/11/2013 12:00:00 AMA5A+You're not going to eat here every week, but it is a great experience and you simply must enjoy the A5 Wagyu.

I'd made a reservation for 8, but had a couple of extras decide they wanted to come. I called and they easily accommodated moving my group up to 10 by pushing my reservation back 15 minutes. When we arrived, we actually ended up with 11 plus a baby! The staff didn't blink. They were very accommodating.
I was surprised by the live pianist in the bar area and really enjoyed that while we waited for our whole party to gather.
The waiter was spot on and easy going with a group so large. The food was good. A little pricey for a slightly above average meal. But, it was fun that it was well worth it!
They even brought out a few extras for the table to nibble on. Plus they brought bday treats with candles!4/5/2013 12:00:00 AMCame on a Sunday, so probablyCame on a Sunday, so probably much more quiet than how it is normally. Steak was excellent and very filling. Very tasty appetizers too. Took my mom here while she was visiting. I would pass on the wagyu beef, though. Far too rich.3/31/2013 12:00:00 AMpleasant surpriseSan Fran has no shortage of good restaurants. We went here based on the hotel concierge recommendation "with a vibrant ambiance". Glad we did. Our server was excellent - friendly, knowledgeable and attentive. The manager even came by a few times to greet us. I had the wagyu sashimi, kona kampachi cerviche. The table also had steak and tataki duo for mains, along with truffle fries, swiss chard and muushroom as sides. All were excellent - definitely beyond my expectations.3/30/2013 12:00:00 AMWe took our son and friendsWe took our son and friends to celebrate his 18th birthday. It's definitely an upscale restaurant and a great experience. The ambiance is understated elegance and contemporary with a great live piano as background music. The food is very, very good with an Asian touch and the service is excellent. They did a superb job of accommodating a special food need for one member of the party and in general, the service was exceptionally attentive without being intrusive. The quality of the steak was excellent and the a great choice for meat lovers who are looking for a contemporary take on a steakhouse.3/30/2013 12:00:00 AMThe beet salad was one ofThe beet salad was one of the best. The Lobster tempura was perfectly cooked, no sauce needed. Our main entree, the wagyu crossbred 4 oz hit the spot. We were very pleased with our meal.3/22/2013 12:00:00 AMThe best RibEye in the country!Started off with some great happy hour appetizers. Had a nice booth, and we all ordered rib eyes. This was the best RibEye in my life. It was tender, not too fatty, well aged. Our waitress was fabulous, and constantly filled our ice teas, wine glasses, etc. Everyone in the restaurant was very service oriented. We'll definitely be back!!3/13/2013 12:00:00 AMThe Real Kobe DealWanted to try based on the Kobe beef. It's real, from Japan, not just the technique. Served @ $30 an oz in 4oz increments. DELISH!!! Appetizers were great as well. You're going to pay, but it's a great experience. I brought my own wine. 1st 2 corkage @ $20/bottle. Don't bring just any wine. Look at the wine list and see if you can get it cheaper and bring it in. That's the way to go. Got to see Fmr. Mayor Willie Brown dining in as well.3/1/2013 12:00:00 AM5A5 SteakHouseThis was a great experience. The food was amazing. I recommend the bacon wrapped scallop appetizers and the maguro bite as a started. The Wagyu beef filet with truffle risotto literally melted in my mouth. I also recommend the lobster tempura as a side. Great wine list, the Argentinian Malbec was fantastic. For dessert, the L'Opera Verte with green tea and the Fondant Cake are a great way to end the evening. Great service. Leila, was an amazing waitress and was incredibly helpful. Fun restaurant and a pleasure to visit.2/18/2013 12:00:00 AM
