tried the sukiyaki hotpot the first time I went, and man the quality of the meat is amazing. the presentation's great and so well-balanced. this time around, i got the gyudon which was good, the strawberry matcha with oat milk was expertly made! it had no graininess or any of that powdery taste. maybe skip the fried squid... it was def on the tougher side. overall, everything was cool. it was probably my favorite dining experience in SF so far! 🤓☝️(the first time I went, they were playing TWICE the entire time and it gave me the full #bayarea #asian experience LMAO)

Made a reservation for 8pm, table wasn’t available until 8:30. No effort was made to compensate for this delay. We weren’t given chopsticks or napkins, though service was quick. Food was okay, I’ve had much better hotpot in the city with larger portions and better prices.

Such a wonderful atmosphere and amazing food. The chef accommodated my no-sugar dietary restriction which I really appreciate. Loved the experience and will definitely be back!

Really delicious, convenient induction setup, and well priced!
We ordered the spicy miso nabe and the togarashi squid (best fried squid I’ve had?). We doubled up on the squid.

The WORST Japanese restaurant I have ever been to. Not only is the food completely flavorless the staff is extremely rude. They are inconsiderate and everything is an extra charge. DO NOT COME HERE AT ALL COSTS!

I loved the fried tofu upon bowl. My first visit and can't wait to return. Cozy, cute, and yummy.

The food was amazing but the service was lacking. They did not explain the cooking method as you would need to cook your own items when they arrived. They also did not turn on our pot when it arrived and we were unsure if it was on for a bit.

saw it was a new spot, big fan of broths and sukiyaki so had to try. i’d say the foods are a decent portion, the ingredients pretty fresh but mostly pre-frozen. the sauces were japanese inspired, and the table heat tech was pretty cool. interiors a bit sterile.

Great food and service. I loved the individual pot and the spicy miso was so good. For small eater, 2 pax can share one pot plus a side.
Lovely spot, very well designed interior, attentive staff, and need to come back to try more dishes !

Good ambiance. Got the buta and (pork set), and it was decent quality. The broth itself was so so, which I feel is key for a good shabu shabu.

Somehow “cooking” your own food just before eating it is an amazing experience! And it tasted great too! No soda refills, but not an issue. A hidden gem in Castro.
