Pleasantly surprised with the venue. Service was helpful but a little rushed. While enjoying a carafe of sake, the Miso soup, California, vegetable and salmon rolls were delicious. Finished with a treat of delectable mochi.

This restaurant has been temporarily relocated to a shoebox off the entrance of the hotel, it's tiny, noisy, has zero ambience, we were seated next to a cash register and some plastic crates. None of this was communicated when we made the reservation. The menu was extremely limited since this temporary location didn't have a full kitchen, furniture and decor was basically like going to your local fast food joint and prices were 5* fine dining.

Renovations are ongoing at the main restaurant so a make shift restaurant was set up. The room is small, but nice, however, acoustics are not good so the room was too noisy. Staff was nice, trying to work through a busy evening in a small noisy room. Sushi was just ok.

We enjoyed San Saetto mostly because of the food and service. However, the ambience left a lot to be desired. The bright lighting, the lack of music, and the Hardscape of the restaurant was surprising given that it’s a Ritz Carlton restaurant. I would like to return because the Sushi was sublime, however the lack of ambience does not make me eager to dine again .

Restaurant has been moved into a small bar directly in front of the valet. There are far better sushi options in town. We were very disappointed.

This is a quiet, low lighting, lovely venue that has inside and outside seating with heaters. Such a great menu with great, unique options. We started with a miso soup that was very good. Transitioning to a vegetable roll that was personally brought to us by the chef that was so beautiful we almost didn’t eat it. Fresh and crisp and tasty. Grant was our server and he was fantastic. He recommended the A5 Wagyu dish that was delicious and the crudo dish was devine. This is a must for sushi fans. Thank You Grant for such a memorable evening.
