Excellent dinner with creative dishes. Staff was very attentive. Small restaurant so they are able to take care of every guest with great care. I will be back.

Innovative menus and incredible creativity with the omakase. Some of the best Japanese food I've eaten in Oakland - incredible that they don't have a Michelin star yet, so try to get there before they do.

Americanized Japanese Food. The ambiance is ok, one waitress was good, the other not so good. The sushi is really good, but the rest was okay and seemed to be made to please the American palette. The Pork Chops tasted like you would get from a slightly upscale restaurant and the miso soup could have been richer. The food was good, but I left feeling let down. There is a lot of attention paid to the presentation, but I just wished more attention was on the taste and the authenticity.

This is our go-to fancy date night place. We spend about 2 hours and $150 here for 2 people with drinks, and it is so worth it! They have a prefixed menu of about 7 courses, so all you have to do is make a reservation and then arrive hungry! Make sure to keep an open mind and try everything. Some of the dishes can seem strange, but I have never had something here I do not enjoy.

Nice atmosphere. Prompt service. Dishes were pretty good. There are some things that are only for a certain type of palate...so you may not like everything. Still recommend overall. And nearby parking is easy to find.
