This Pacific Renaissance Plaza spot is a restaurant within a restaurant. Set on the second floor, it shares acreage with Sakura as well as the patio that overlooks downtown Oakland. The room is simple, with a host stand greeting diners. A long bar resides on the left; white booth seating on the right; and black tables run down the middle. A striking wall display of bottles puts diners in the mood for a sip before they sup. 
Service can be spotty, but all is forgiven when the Sichuan menu, complete with the classics, is presented. Portions are hefty, so bring a buddy and indulge in such refreshing starters as a lotus root salad with ginger and garlic sauce. This may be tailed by the likes of fiery mapo tofu or chongqing chicken for a tongue-numbing finish.
