Top notch food and service, hands down best Japanese food I have had. Obviously this is a well managed restaurant with the quality of food and service we received.
My favorite � 4 ever! Fabulous experience, the best sushi in town. Great customer service.
Intimate atmosphere with chefs-counter-only seating. Each course was simple yet inspired, and so fresh. The menu is obviously set (though you were offered the opportunity to order more at the end if you wish.)
We were served several fish I had never before tried along with some favorites-turned-upscale like three courses of tuna nigiri, with increasing fattiness, lightly seared wagyu and the lightest, airiest tamago with a delicate crispy top.
The sake pairing portions were big enough to share, which is very good because otherwise I wouldn’t have been conscious by the third course. But each is paired very well, served and explained by a sake specialist and worth any hangover, should it come to that.
Okmakase is a bit on the spendier side but absolutely worth saving up for. Cannot wait to return. Much thanks to the staff for a lovely night and overall experience.
Awesome experience in this multiple-year Michelins awarded omakase restaurants. Special fishes that I rarely had even I have been to so many other sushi omakase readings in SF. Friendly staff and wonderful services that delivered a very warm and welcomed vibe. My daughter and I really enjoyed it and had a great evening there !
My dining experience at Omakase in San Francisco was truly unforgettable. From the moment I stepped through the door, I was transported into a world of culinary excellence. The intimate setting and minimalist decor set the stage for what was to come – a culinary journey that surpassed all expectations.
The omakase menu, a chef's tasting menu where the chef selects each dish, was a symphony of flavors and textures that danced on my palate. Each course was a work of art, meticulously crafted with the freshest ingredients. The sushi, in particular, was a revelation. The fish melted in my mouth, and the rice was perfectly seasoned. The chef's creativity shone through in every bite, as I savored exotic ingredients and unique combinations that I had never experienced before.
The service at Omakase was impeccable. The staff were attentive, knowledgeable, and passionate about the cuisine they were serving. They took the time to explain each dish, its origins, and the techniques used to prepare it. It was evident that they took great pride in their craft.
What truly set Omakase apart was the chef's personal touch. The chef throughout the meal explained the inspiration behind each course and to ensure that we were enjoying our dining experience. This level of interaction made the meal feel like a genuine connection with the chef and added an extra layer of appreciation to the food.
In the end, dining at Omakase in San Francisco was not just a meal; it was a culinary journey, an artful experience, and a memory that will stay with me for a lifetime. If you have the opportunity to dine at Omakase, I highly recommend it. It's not just a restaurant; it's an extraordinary dining adventure that will redefine your expectations of fine cuisine.
Been here twice for a birthday and anniversary and thoroughly enjoyed the experience both times. Great ambience, knowledgeable and friendly chefs, and of course amazing amazing omakase! Price is quite reasonable too considering it has a Michelin Star.
Lowkey, this was absolutely worth it. The sushi was fresh. You could tell the fish hadnt actually been “frozen” before and was freshly flown in from Japan(btw all their ingredients are fresh from japan). I went there with my dad, the sake tasting was amazing, none of the 5 we tried were alike and it presented an experience in itself. I wont spoil it for you but its like going through all the seasons one by one, at least when I went. Chef Yu wasnt our sushi chef but ours was still an amazing cook and a very pleasant person. He focused on the sushi a lot and explained every dish and conversed about the origins of the fish and history. Our waitress was amazing with the detailed sake explanations, you can tell shes an enthusiast by the way she goes into depth with any question you ask. The waiter was really fun when we first walked in and gave us a really cool experience. Ive dined in plenty of famous, $$$ omakases in tokyo and i have to say this was well worth it. It has been my best meal out of tokyo and i think it will continue to be. I cannot stress how perfect everything and i mean everything was this evening. We enjoyed a quiet, relaxing atmosphere and the dessert towards the end was definetely my favourite part. The uni was very fresh, contrary to a review i read and so was everything else. I have no complaints, only compliments. I never thought i would enjoy such fresh ingredients outside of japan. I will try the other omakases in sf, but i honestly doubt they will be much better than this. It was very filling and we spent $650~~ on the food and an additional 180 on sake. I only wish i had gotten more otoro while i wad there.
The weather was unbelievably rainy but Omakase made all the rainy driving worth it! The chef was amazingly skilled and also really funny so it was a great experience :) The fish was really fresh and the chef took time to explain before every dish any noteworthy characteristics so we knew what to taste for. I was also really full by the end! They checked for vaccination status before letting us in and the chefs wore masks during the entire ~2hour service.
We went for our anniversary and they drew a cute little card for us :)
Delicious dinner experience. Fish selection was great and fresh. Some of their fish I've had for the first time at this restaurant. Golden eye snapper and toro were the standouts for the nigri course.
Dessert was miso Panna Cotta with yuzu granita and fresh fruit and it was very refreshing. Perfect ending to dinner.
This was by far the best dining experience I’ve ever had. The Sushi/Nigiri was prepared to perfection and everything was full of flavor. The level of detail in the presentation, the high quality ingredients and the professionalism from the chef and staff were unmatched. Our favorites were the O Toro, the Scallop and the Sashimi. Really enjoyed the ice cream dessert as well. Hope to be back when in the area again!
So my cousin and I went here for my birthday dinner. The experience was great. We were wonderfully over dressed so we definitely made a night of it. The sake paring was amazing - over indulgent but amazing. And, the environment was quiet, chill and the service was enjoyable. We didn’t regret spending several hundred dollars at the end of the evening, so I’d say that it’s 5 star!
Delicious sushi overall. The Chu-Toro, Wagyu Beef and Monkfish Liver are all gem pieces. All the pieces have a well-balanced taste.
However, the environment was a bit noisy when I visited. Shirako was also served despite of my prior request of “no Shirako”
