This was hands-down the best meal of my life. The attention to detail and artistry applied to every bite is unmatched, and the chefs and waitstaff are very warm and welcoming.Every bite was accompanied with an explanation of each ingredient, and you could always tell that they were proud of what they were serving, as they should be.

one of the best tasting menus i’ve been served! huge fan of the cod w matcha pea soup

The food is amazing!! Will definitely visit again soon!!!

The omakase dinner is expensive but worth the money. You get top quality Japanese food and the dining experience is great ?

Traditional omakase with premium ingredients and great technical preparation/presentation. Staff was polite/friendly. Some occasional fumbling here and there with the presentation of dishes. Sitting a the chef's table, however, was a delight. I was able to enjoy my meal in peace with occasional pleasant interactions with the chef reserved for information about the omakase. Placing the "reserved" tag/placard at my seat right before sitting was an unnecessary and awkward touch. Would definitely come here again.

I am so glad that I tried this restaurant yesterday. It is my favorite sushi restaurant in San Francisco so far. Fresh and tasty, the fish melt in your mouth. Love every dish they made for us. Wonderful tasting menu. Attentive service. Comfortable setting. Causal elegant. Will definitely go back again.

To celebrate wifey’s birthday we booked ourselves a table ( well in advance) at Kusakabe and enjoyed every bit of our time at this fine dining heaven.Truly one of the best Omakase experience and it just keeps getting better every time. We were here a couple of years ago as well and the bar just keeps getting higher.Upon checkin you would be asked for the vaccination card and an ID and thus it’s a good idea to keep it handy. From there onwards you would be taken to the table and from there begins the fine omakase experience that Kusakabe has to offer. They definitely check with you for any food allergies/ preferences before the tasty bites start rolling out one after the other.Every meal that’s brought to the table has a very detailed explanation by the server and with every serving it just keeps getting better and better. The flavor and texture along with the presentation is beyond exceptional and must say it’s an amazing journey that one must definitely take on and indulge in.Meticulously preparing these dishes and introducing different elements of cooking, bringing out a variety is what Kusakabe takes pride in and this can be noticed in their perfect execution all the way from start to end.Definitely an experience that we can never forget and would like to go back there for more.Arigato gozaimasu Ksuakabe!!

The best sushi in San Francisco with Kyoto style Omakase inspired by Kaiseki cuisine. The nigiri is garnished with flavor enhancers like shaved truffle or egg yolk and the fish are perfectly aged to bring out peak flavor and texture.

Undoubtedly the best restaurant in San Francisco, not just Sushi. Also the third service beats any Michelin star restaurants.

Pretty special Omasake experience. Recommend when in SF.
