Exceptional Food Despite Long Wait
My experience at this restaurant was marked by an exceptional and fresh food offering, which truly stood out. Despite a long wait of over 50 minutes, the dedication of the four individuals working tirelessly to provide the best possible experience was evident. Their efforts ensured that the quality of the food was paramount.

Amazing Sushi Value and Quality
My experience at Wabi Sabi was fantastic! It's a small and simple sushi spot, but what truly impressed me was the simplicity combined with high-level sushi at an amazing price. I was amazed by the 11 Nigiri omakase (chef's choice) for $48, especially when neighboring competitors charge around $100. I managed to snag an even better deal with their lunch special: 6 chef's choice nigiri, a spicy tuna roll, and miso soup for just $26. You really can't go wrong with this place. The sushi is not only top quality but also artful. It's hands down the best price in town for sushi. One important note for potential visitors is that they don't serve alcohol.

Disappointing Sushi and Cold Gyoza
My experience at this restaurant was quite disappointing. The sushi was marginal, and I felt I could prepare much better myself. To make matters worse, the gyoza were cold on the inside, which made me suspect they were microwaved. Overall, the food quality was not up to par.

Hidden Gem for Fresh Sushi
My experience at this cozy sushi place, tucked away in an alley, was great. The sushi was incredibly fresh and tasty. While it's not a fancy establishment, the good food made for a satisfying dinner. The atmosphere and service were both rated a 4 out of 5, contributing to a pleasant dining experience.

Great Food, Slow Service
My experience at this restaurant was marked by awesome tasty food. The staff were friendly, but the service was very slow. It's definitely not a place to go if you are in a rush.

Plastic in food, long wait, no apology
My experience at this restaurant was very bad. We found plastic in the roll and the miso soup. To make matters worse, the boss did not even apologize or offer any reimbursement. We also waited for the food for almost an hour. I will never come again.

Exceptional Service and Unforgettable Sushi
This place is a must go. My experience was outstanding, particularly the service, which was the best I have ever had. The sushi was truly unreal, and the sake was fair priced. Thanks for such a great experience.

Fantastic Nigiri at a Hole-in-the-Wall Gem
I rarely leave reviews, but this place was fantastic. It's an unassuming little hole in the wall. I was the first person in there for lunch, but it filled up quickly. The 11 piece nigiri sampler was perfect and a very fair price for the quality. Lovely service too! Any time I visit SF, this will be my spot.
