    Everything is perfect here in every way except the table vs. tableware sizes. Their service plates are beautiful and of generous size. The tables are just barely large enough to seat either 2 or 4 persons. If you order more than 2 0r 3 items at once things get tight immediately. Item number 3 or 4 appears and if you find the food is so good that you have taken a little time to savor and appreciate each just a bit, the runner is not prepared to cope and just stands there, holding the new dish and looking non-plussed. Our runner was not prepared to move items around on existing plates to reduce density. So the diners had to do it and messy plates were produced. Clearly the space is already filled with tables, so larger ones are not an option. On our future visits, we will order only 2 items at a time and order new ones when service plates can be removed timely. BUT the great food is the thing, after all. We both judged this to be the best sushi meal we have eaten outside of Japan, so we are more than willing to drive in from Marin. FIVE STARS in every category that really matters! We shall return soon and often.

    With such stellar reviews, we know we had to try this one! Not only did it surpass our expectations, but we can't wait to go again! The service was prompt and the food was delicious! We tried the Fritto Misto, perfect size appetizer, as well as the Corzetti and the Ravioli di Zucca! We also paired the meal with the Jungle Cat and the Espresso Shakerato! Wonderful experience, highly recommend this to anyone interested!

    Best holiday dinner in the city. We were seated right away. Had martinis that were perfect. Dinner was delicious and served quickly. Our waiters were great about suggestions and appearing whenever we needed them. The whole staff was in a holiday attitude and it showed. We love this restaurant for its food and atmosphere. Always take visitors here for the San Francisco local experience. It’s a treasure.
