This discreet nook offers an elegant refuge from the quaint bustle of downtown Redwood City, and in turn offers some of the best sushi in town. Chef Jason Zhan manages the counter with aplomb and no shortage of charm, skillfully assembling a distinctive omakase featuring carefully sourced, seasonal seafood. At dinner, guests can select either a standard menu, or a pricier “premium” version that gilds the lily with rarer delicacies, while at lunch a single abbreviated menu is offered. The meal begins with a procession of small plates, which might include unique offerings like tempura-fried greeneye dusted with matcha, or soy-marinated Japanese sea snail, before proceeding to flavor-forward nigiri topped with the likes of horse mackerel and hairy crab.
