Neighborhood gem, tucked away in a strip mall. Hard to find, but comfortable and lovely inside. Lots of free parking outside. Limited tables, so make a reservation. Menu changes monthly. Full course menu delicious and affordable. Can order extras and wine pairing. Magical experience for any special occasion.

An incredible restaurant! Highly recommend. The set menu is spectacular. We’ve gone twice and have had 2 different menus - each dish has been thoughtful and excellently cooked. There hasn’t been a single course we haven’t raved about. The add-ons are always fantastic, and we really enjoyed the wine pairing as well. The chef/owner, Sohei, is very kind and attentive and goes out of his way to make each person’s experience enjoyable.

This place is a hidden gem! Nice, quiet (!) and relaxing ambiance, excellent service -- and the food, oh the food! The food is... elegant, interesting (but no crazy out-there experiments), utterly competently prepared, and just wonderful and delicious.
I have eaten here maybe 6 times now, and I have been very happy every single time, so they are consistent, too. And given the high quality of the experience, this place is very good value for money, too. Highly recommended!

WOW, what a phenomenal dinner!

My husband and I wanted to grab a quick bite for my birthday, but we didn't want to go all the way to San Francisco to eat. We found this gem of a restaurant and were able to get a last minute booking. The service was very professional and fast. The food was delicious and it really filled us up! This was a 10/10 experience and we'll definitely be back.

FYI, according to the server/owner the menu changes every 2 months or so. It's a mother and son restaurant serving high quality French prefixed dinner.

Fantastic prix fixe tasting menu at an excellent price point for the quality! It's French cuisine (we had a lovely fig galette and scallops gratin), but with Asian inflections (the stuffed pork with Japanese style sweet potato mash was another highlight). A thoughtful wine list pairs well with the food (a Loire Valley sauvignon blanc went perfectly with our meal), as well as a solid mocktail selection. It's hidden in a run of the mill strip mall, but inside with its understated but elegant decor you wouldn't know it! I'm sure the menu will change seasonally, so we'll be back!

Great food & wine pairing, with attentive service from Sohei. Quiet vibe on the evening we were there. Hoping for a future lighter option with fewer courses & lower cost so we can visit more often.

Great restaurant in SB! Food was excellent. We particularly loved the carrot soup, souffle, and lemon meringue dessert. They brought out something special for our anniversary. They do a fixe-prix menu that changes every 6-8 weeks. Will be back!

I can't say enough good things about this place! From the moment I walked in, the atmosphere was warm and welcoming. The food was amazing and everything was absolutely delicious! The flavors were spot-on, and you can tell that fresh, quality ingredients are used in every dish. The service was great and the staff were friendly and attentive. I'll definitely be coming back again and would definitely recommend!
