Best Creative Japanese Restaurants in Nob Hill

Amazing food and service. Great price for an omakase! The add-ons are a must try though. The Signature Toast, Crystal Uni and Scallop Skewer are awesome!

I was at Akiko’s several years ago when it was still in its very small location. Most of the time when an amazing place expands the restaurant loses some of what makes it special. Well - that myth was busted. The staff was friendly, the service impeccable, and the Omikase experience was one of the top 10 meals of my life. My husband, son and I had a most memorable meal.

I had an incredible dining experience at 6 Tables last night! The concept of an appetizer-style menu featuring dishes from various cuisines is brilliant, and every dish we tried was a masterpiece. We started with the dates stuffed with miso cream cheese and pistachio, which had a perfect balance of sweet, savory, and creamy. The Brussels sprouts were cooked to perfection, with just the right amount of crisp and seasoning. The seared scallops were buttery and tender, and the beef with hummus and chimichurri was packed with bold, vibrant flavors. Each dish was so distinct yet equally impressive! The drinks were equally amazing. We had two sake-based cocktails, the Green Goddess and Midnight Petals, and they were both beautifully crafted and absolutely delicious. The ambiance is immaculate--cozy, intimate, and stylish--making it an ideal spot for a date night or a special occasion. I can't wait to return and try their brunch menu. If you're looking for a place with unique dishes, phenomenal drinks, and a romantic vibe, 6 Tables is a must-visit!
