    Stupendous dinner! Loved sitting at the counter, beautiful presentation of each course and the best duck I have ever had. Drinks from next door were very good. The only negative would be the dessert which was inedible. Very bad with an unpleasant flavor combination. Luckily the rest of the meal made up for it.

    Had late dinner on a short turnaround weekend in SF and have to say it was one of the best experiences we have had in a long time. Everything about the evening was fantastic from the food to the service to the ambiance. Food - It seemed like the courses were an endless stream of delicious and interesting choices that blended Japanese/Asian dishes with local suppliers. There was a wide range of foods and all were presented beautifully in different bowls and plates. Uni, unagi, crab, wagyu, duck, cod, oyster, curry, and miso soup were all delicious. Service - The servers were all very well trained and had a story for every course served. They gave a detailed explanation and answered any questions we had or got back to us if there was something they were not sure of. The flow of food was very consistent and were weren't rushed at all. Ambiance - The decor is muted and lighting is bright enough to read the menu but still have a relaxing vibe. The seating area is open but not cramped and a very quiet soothing atmosphere. Chef David came to our table and had a nice conversation and I saw him speak to almost every table throughout the evening. All in all it was an excellent night and I can see this restaurant having a long and successful run.

    This was our first visit to Nisei and it did not disappoint! We celebrated my husband’s 60th birthday and it couldn’t have been more special. The entire tasting menu was incredible—each dish was a new delightful and delicious experience. Chef David is so talented and creative in the way he blends flavors. The entire staff was also exceptional—they were knowledgeable, friendly and attentive. I highly recommend Nisei for a special occasion or if you are just looking for an incredible dining experience. It is worth every penny!

    Wow, Nisei was fantastic! I think the service was a real highlight for me - the staff and chef were so personable. The food was gorgeous and delicious. I’m a huge fan of soups, so the ichiban chowder and the pine nut miso soup were definitely my favorites. The chowder foam was somehow light and hearty at the same time. Sourdough mochi was a great compliment- so delicious that I’d buy them by the dozen if I could. If you can, would definitely recommend the wine pairing - I found a new favorite wine (Lumier Winery, “Mitsuki” 2023) and learned so much from the sommelier. Overall, a 11/10 experience. I love going out to Michelin star spots for a special treat, but this will be the first time I return to a spot once they move to the next seasonal shift in their menu:)

    My partner and I had our Valentines Day Dinner here and it was absolutely amazing. The service, the ambiance, the food were all incredible. Chef David was also very kind in greeting all of his guests! The staff are super friendly and we absolutely recommend it! We plan on checking out Bar Iris next door very soon! Shout out to the Chef Elle too! The desert was amaaaaaazing!
