We passed this restaurant a few times while visiting the mall in Japantown and decided to give it a shot, and I'm so glad we did. The atmosphere was cozy, cute, and extremely fun for any anime/manga enthusiasts. And the food was DELICIOUS. I had the hamburger steak sizzler and it was so good that I almost want to return to San Fran just to eat it again.

I absolutely LOVE ‘on the bridge’ in Japantown SF! I’ve been coming here since I was… 14? 15? And the food has never disappointed! Seating is a little limited (if it’s a busy day) but I’ve never really had to wait too long. Love the fun art and all the Manga throughout the restaurant! The owner and/or chef is SO nice and never makes a bad dish! I got the mentaiko cream pasta this time around and I’ve been thinking about it ever since! Every time I make it to Japantown- this is my go to! Prices are good for food and you get good portions! Drinks are a little pricey but where are they not when you eat out but it’s all very authentic Japanese!
Very good spot that’s affordable for locals. Food tastes like any other delicious Japanese food, and service is top notch from the chef.

We went there around 8:20 pm while everything else was closing. We ordered the curry rice and vegetable dumplings, the food came out fast. It was decent food for bar food but not great however since they sell a lot of imported alcohol the atmosphere of the bar is great .

It’s very rare to find a Yoshoku place in the area! The food is amazing and the staff are friendly. They also have manga that you can read during your meal. Love the place!

Highly recommend never coming here. The guy who I guess was the manager on a Sunday night was super unfriendly. My friends asked for a sake recommendation and he frowned and said “that’s too general; it’s like asking for a wine recommendation” and wasn’t helpful. Which makes no sense cause you can totally get wine recommendations.
They charged me automatic 20% gratuity without telling me and then the manager again was rude and defensive. Also a “leverage fee” just to round my total up to $100? Food was very mid. Avoid this place. Worst service I’ve had that I can remember.

Zero stars really We ordered chicken and tofu curry Let’s talk about the curry first. The cups and bowls are too small to hold a small amount of curry. Let’s talk about the ingredients: a small potato, a small carrot, a few sweet potato leaves, and three several-inch-sized pieces of flat tofu. The chicken is too salty and Hard and firewood, the asking price is 20USD faster I would not recommend this place to anyone who wants to eat curry, the reviews are not true.

Great authentic japanese katsu curry. Staff were super nice. Felt like we were back in
The waitress was so rude, she didn’t even greet me when she saw me, ignored me for a good 10 mins and when I ask what she could recommend, she just said they are all very popular, I told her that her attitude sucks and left.

Had the chicken katsu curry which came out to be 21$. Portion size on the smaller end but the worst part was that I got severe stomache ache after consuming the food here. Be warned.
