Very expensive but good food. For context, I brought my son for his 25th birthday. We had 9 people, all 17+ years old and _no_ alcohol was ordered. The bill for 9 people with automatic tip came out to be $390 or $44/person.
With that out of the way, we had a good experience. The waitress was very gentle and patient. The place has nice decoration and Japanese architecture.. at least it reminds me of one which is a nice plus on the ambience. We sat at the upper platform so that part is not wheelchair accessible.
They have both menu book and also QR code so you can see what the food looks like. The raw stuff were fresh. Photos shows the things we ordered and everyone loved it. Since it's very expensive, we only come here on very special occasion and this is my 3rd visit in 2 years.
Yes I would go back again.

For two, I ordered the pork belly skewers, pork gyoza, and the bacon wrapped enoki to start. Then got the sushi tray A. Everything hit the spot and was delicious! The servers also went above and beyond and were very nice throughout the night.
I really enjoyed the ambiance of this restaurant. Its warm, cozy, and can be seen as romantic in a sense. I would highly recommend the sushi trays for 2 people! Its just enough food and the cuts are much larger than other sushi restaurants. 10/10

Location is tucked into a hidden street near the dealerships and Marina outlets. Small, yet private parking lot which I feel like is rare to find in this area! The restaurant was beautiful, and I'm upset that I wasn't able to take any pictures while I was inside. Most tables from what I saw were for two seats but I saw atleast one semi-private tatami-style (I believe that what it's called) group seating area which I thought was cool! My sister got the shoyu ramen (typically isn't available during lunchtime when we went, but our host made an exception for us since my sister has ordered it prior and enjoyed it!!), I got the Combo A, and we shared edamame, fruit sake flight, and tempura roll. Everything was so delicious! Fish was fresh, rice was cooked perfectly, and tempura was crunchy. I believe l've doordashed from this place before, but I'm lucky to have finally visited in person. I wasn't able to get the name of our server, but the lady with the short pink hair gave my sister and I amazing service! Periodically checked in on us making sure we had enough water and making sure everything was tasting good. The lovely service we received was the main thing that motivated me to leave this review. My sister and I visited around 2pm on a Saturday which is typically prime lunchtime, but the restaurant was practically empty apart from three other groups that were in and out during the time we were there. I truly hope this isn't the normal, because this place deserves as much love as I'm giving it! I recently came back from a month-long trip to Japan, and this experience brought me right back to it. The quality of this place was on-par to what I ate back in Tokyo and Osaka. For sure my favorite place l've tried in the east bay, and possibly even the entire bay area. I will for sure be back here!

Some of the sashimi was not fresh! I communicated with the store clerk! But no one responded! I will not come again next time! This was a very bad meal!

Has a great Shoyu Ramen and their sushi is pretty good. Not terribly priced either, I would definitely recommend. Not only for the food, but the interior is so amazing!

Go! It's a hidden gem and fair prices. The owner is great and been going since day 1 they opened. Everything is solid, value and food quality really good intersection which is beyond rare these days. Atmosphere kind of weird because the space is really huge but staff and food is amazing. Great for big parties too and open late.

Great place with delicious food and a nice interior. There weren’t many people (lunchtime), and only a few tables were occupied. We had a reservation, but for some reason, we still had to wait about 20 minutes while our table sat empty—kind of strange. Other than that, everything was great!

As a Japanese food lover for over 20 years, my migraine deprived me of my enjoyment of Japanese food because it might contain dashi, an ingredient that has the same chemical as MSG. Kaisen Don took my question about dashi seriously and made sure to set aside sauces that use dashi or remove them entirely from my food. I cannot thank the team enough for this!

The sushi was very fresh. Raw oyster shots were very tasty and honestly the first time I had them in a sushi place. Duck breast was an experience of its own. The first time I saw natto on the menu so I had to order one. Service was prompt and friendly. Very good experience. Parking was tight.

Some of the freshest sushi I've had in the bay, and the staff were super friendly. Loved the hamachi and salmon nigiri and sashimi in particular, as well as the estudillo roll. Will definitely come back!
