The service was very impressive and the food was fantastic. The gourmet feel and explanation of each item on the pre fixe menu was awesome. Definitely will go here again. It is pricey, but worth it.

Fish wasn’t very fresh. A5 wagyu bowl was pretty disappointing, I feel like I could get the same thing in a normal Chinese restaurant. The Japanese uni was great, but SB uni was really bitter. Overall wouldn’t complain too much with a 195 dollar per person omakase experience in SF, but the I did expect better.

We had an amazing experience. Dining at this restaurant was superb. It was decadent and over-the-top. It’s a great way to treat yourself to an amazing meal with great food and lavish proteins that were methodically created. Our host Allan Le made our night. He was super friendly and knowledgeable of everything that was served and created such a fun experience couldn’t thank you enough. Our chef was highly skilled and worked hard with the delicate proteins that were served. Thank you to the staff and the establishment of this restaurant.

Highlights are the food and the service. Definitely one of the best omakase experiences we had in the Bay Area. This place is definitely a bit of a hidden gem - surprised it wasn’t as difficult to book a reservation.

Had a delightful omakase experience at Sato to celebrate our 3 year anniversary. The sushi chefs take you on a palette journey. I especially loved the Buri with truffles, which just complemented one another so well, I was both surprised and thoroughly enjoying every bite. I also wanted more of the chawanmushi, it was so meticulously crafted, I didn’t want to finish it so that the flavors could continue on much longer! My partner loved the scorched barracuda and we both loved the cured king salmon. Yuzu panna cotta was delicious, though I could’ve done without the red bean. That’s more a personal choice though!
