- RRodSan Francisco Bay Area •3 reviews5.0Dined 2 days agoEVERYTHING about our experience was top notch! Reuben, our server was welcoming, informative, funny and just the best we’ve ever had! The sampler of A3 and A4 Wagyu was enlightening. You really do have to eat them in that order to appreciate the difference. It does leave you wanting the A5 next time! All the staff made our dining so wonderful!More infoNiku Steakhouse$$$$• Steakhouse• SOMA•4.7

- EElanaGoldSan Francisco Bay Area •2 reviews5.0Dined on 11 Oct 2026Always friendly and welcoming- only downside (and also an environmental upside)- digital menus, although they have paper ones by request. Such a friendly place, we always feel welcome- the charcoal morsels were off the hook good, and such a wonderful staff!More infoIzakaya Ginji$$$$• Japanese• San Mateo•4.6
