Everything was delicious, service was quick, friendly, and professional. Dining room was quite loud and crowded, and our 8-seat communal table felt just a bit too tight for the number of patrons.

When is San Francisco‘s best cat secrets! This place is epic. Sushi was extremely high grade and have lots of good options. The beer was brewed in House and the cocktails were fantastic. We went to the adjacent speakeasies afterwards, which was also a hit.

We came in early for a pre opera meal. Tried out a few recommended items by our waiter. Really appreciated the guidance as we were debating which items to try. All the sushi and the chip appetizer was delicious. Definitely coming back for more
