Hashiri Bettei Kaiseki Aoki Reviews
The restaurant has an unobtrusive storefront, and opens at the start of the single seating dinner service. The evening’s guests are comfortably seated in a single row at the counter, where we can see the finishing touches applied to each dish, and the team gives helpful descriptions and background context for the dishes.

The place only has 9 seatings per night and it is more of a Japanense Cusine culture show than a dinner. Takes about 3.5 hours from start to finish. Sake pairing is fantastic at $250 per person. All the dishes are well deserved and served.
Definitely one of the top 3 (if not the best) kaiseki restaurants in the Bay Area. Seasonal menu that was tastefully and carefully prepared, with beautiful serveware. Highly recommend!

The culinary journey features meticulously crafted dishes that showcase the expertise and passion of Chef Shin. Standout dishes include the Wagyu, trout, and bonito, with each bite providing a symphony of flavors and textures.

Ingredients are sourced from Japan, including fresh and sweet sea urchin and other top-tier produce. The service is exceptional, with every detail carefully curated to perfection.
