    Chef Julio, Chef Abel and their full team created an incredible dining experience!!! The omakase chef’s selection was better than equivalents at a michelin star restaurant and at 1/4 the price. We loved the innovative combination of techniques and combinations of flavors, textures, and temperatures w some pieces slightly seared to bring-out unique flavors. This is a hidden gem that you must try! And, don’t order from the menu. It doesn’t do the plates justice. Sit at the bar and Ask for chef’s selection!!! ***& Bonus you can also ask for amazing Sake pairings! *** also if you want to try a suuuper special dish ask for the Sea Urchin/caviar/japanese mint bloom/roe surprise with gold-lead flakes! The mintflower on top was my fave part, adding an unexpected delicious twist to the combo. Lastly beyond the amazing food, we got super lucky and happened to sit next to Chef Julio at the bar. His warm & welcoming personality combined with storytelling of every fish we tried and the Hakashi concept made it an unforgettable night. We live in Seattle but this has become a destination every time we are in the SFO area. Gracias ~ Arigato ~ Thank You Hakashi!

    Great food at fair prices (for SF). Service was also good. However, it felt like they were kicking us out around 9pm although their opening hours are until 10pm.

    Delicious sushi. Also, much more reasonably priced than most of the other sushi restaurants in San Francisco.
