Tataki Sustainable Sushi: San Francisco

Applause for sustainable sushi and some of the most delicate, tasty, tender morsels of tataki sushi I have had in quite some time (not in San Francisco, anyway - probably in Taipei was the last time I experienced such fine, flavorful, delicate fish).

Highly recommend the Arctic Char Carpaccio and  Albacore Tataki.  Humm... might also suggest one plate to be shared with 2 persons maximum (or just order double).  We shared amongst 4 people and I was still hungry...


Loved the fresh, tender, delicate fish.  Loved the flavors of the extremely fresh fish dressed in light yet savory fine sauces, none too overpowering, and rather complemented the natural flavors of the fish.  Even the searing technique used served to complement the flavor of the fish combined with the sauces.

I have found my new favorite sushi restaurant in San Francisco.  Oh beware - no reservations taken.  So arrive early and write your name down on the board outside (in the cold.... so again, arrive early).  2nights later and I am still dreaming of the sashimi at Tataki... this means it was GOOD by Soledad's book.
