Went for brunch and the food was great. Had the miso cod eggs benedict, avocado croiffle toast and creme brulee french toast.
Would recommend anything with the croiffle and the french toast was so fluffy and not overwhelmingly sweet.

I really enjoyed my meal here! The ube mochi waffle was a standout, and the avocado toast was perfectly executed. While the fried chicken waffle toast was a bit oily, the chicken itself was incredibly juicy and flavorful.

Extremely Disappointed – Felt Like a Ripoff
I ordered the otoro sashimi here, which was priced at a steep $36. What I received were three paper-thin slices - each barely 3mm thick - laid out to look more generous than they were. While I understand otoro is a premium cut, the portion size was shockingly small, even by high-end sushi standards. The flavor was decent, but not remarkable enough to justify the price.
I’ve dined at many sushi spots, including upscale omakase-style restaurants, and never have I felt so underwhelmed or taken advantage of. For $36, you expect quality and reasonable quantity - this was neither.
Won’t be returning. There are far better options out there that actually respect your wallet and your palate.

Loved the cosy nook/room for family/private celebrations. Great food!

We were in the area and decided to try to his restaurant. It was a little late lunch as it was a little after one. Restaurant was little over half full. We got seated pretty quick, water and menus followed shortly afterwards. We ordered ube mochi waffle, kalbu steak and eggs, and crispy chicken croffle. It didn't take long for the food to come out. First up the ube waffle for the kid. We all tried a piece and we all thought it was delicious and better than any other restaurant. Next up, my kalbi steak and eggs Everyone tried a piece of steak and again it was outstanding, grilled nicely and eggs were cooked perfectly. Lastly the crispy chicken croffle and man I dunno what they do to it but it was some of the most tender best tasting chicken I've had. And the gouchjang sauce for the chicken is bomb. Everything was delicious and portion size was good. There are several other items I'd like to try so will be back. Service was good too, never had to ask for water refill.

Horrible Instagram trap. Loud environment with no taste. Sandwiches assembled from store bought toasts and sauces but charging exuberant prices. Tap water tastes horrible, too.

If you're a sushi lover, this place is non-negotiable. Every bite was a work of art - from the buttery toro to the melt-in-your-mouth uni. The rice was perfectly seasoned, and the fish was unbelievably fresh. I loved their excellent service. It's not just a meal - it's a sensory experience. 10/10!

Had an amazing lunch experience at this spot today. I thoroughly enjoyed the Impossible Benedict, which was perfectly prepared and truly delicious. My wife had Crispy Chicken Sando, and she found it to be equally impressive. The rose latte was a standout – truly amazing and one of the best coffees I've had.
The restaurant's interior is also quite amazing, with a beautifully designed ambiance that enhanced the whole meal. We had such a positive visit and will definitely be returning to explore more of their menu.

I recommend this place over and over! Went here for my anniversary and had an absolutely amazing time with excellent food! The kalbi beef and amazing sushi! We ordered the small kalbi plate and the large sushi platter and could not have been happier! Customer server was amazing and if even possible, too fast with the food! Will definitely be visiting again!

THE most aesthetic brunch spot in the East Bay Area! 🥞🦞✨
Perfect for a brunch date or to just have a nice meal with friends/family. Highly recommend their mochi waffles and truffle lobster benedict. Even their drinks are almost too pretty to sip!
Always a delight to dine here. This time with a full party in the private dining area for a birthday.

I can thoroughly recommend this place for brunch. The decoration is modern, clean, and bright. The food was spectacular, however, our service was considerably poor for a place at this price point. Our server really didn't understand any of our menu questions and was constantly busy because they were understaffed.
The standout for this locale is their sashimi platter. It is EXTREMELY fairly priced and the best sashimi platter we've had at the bay. Everything was freah and the soy sauce helped pop out the flavors. Besides the roe, everything was tender and sweet.
The chicken croffle toast is the second best. You get an generous portion of chicken w/a gochujang sauce and a nice toasted croissant waffle topped with fresh fruits and maple butter. The chicken is the best fried chicken I've had in the bay area, though I guess that's not saying too much.
The short rib poutine had barely any noticeable short rib and the tots weren't very crispy, well-seasoned, or memorable at all. I would never recommend it.
On drinks, they were both alright. The blushing bae was incredibly meh. The yakultza was good and they present them well but I probably won't get drinks again at this place.

It's an aesthetic dining experience for sure, and flavors are up to spec. We ordered Ikura Shiso Crab Cake Benedict and a Mochi waffle. The crab cake is a shredded patty with good flavor, I wouldn't judge it against a lump crabcake. Ikura made a good accent. The mochi waffle was a little more crispy than chewy but came with a nice sauce.

it is very testy and quite nice looking restaurant. The food is delicious, nice employees and very fast serving. BUT, pricy, For one person’s branch $50, Before tips! Overall, nice place hanging out with friends and family!
