Xellent Night Out – I had no idea San Francisco has places like this. Nihon seems to rival the best of what New York has to offer. Their dinner area was busy on saturday so we settled for a table down staires which I guess was for those first come first serve. The whisky selction is dizying from how big it is, I tried a Japanese whsiky which was smooth and nice. Tuna carrpaccio was to die for as well as the toro sachimi which "I cant belive it is not butter".... Service was extremly friendly and all who work were eager to pl... read more

Whisky & Japanese Works ! – I never thought that having a whisky & eating some fish could go together, but i guess I was proven wrong.

The Kobe beef was about $16 and probably added up to about an ounce of beef. It was also oversalted. The wakame salad was mostly salad leaves. The ahi tuna was also tiny little pieces. It ... read more

Waoo – It has to be the hottest resturant bar in the city. The design is wild. They have been open only for one week & I have been there twice, for drinks & second time for food. Thumbs up to these guys " they know what they are doing" Not to mention the whisky selction and your ability to get a bottle stored there for your next visit, the food has to be one of the top in this city. Although it seemed not too much sushi on the menu but what I tried was the freshest I have ever had. The Fire on the Ahi & dr. Octoupus were a h... read more
