    First time at Kinsho!

    Kinsho is super new so we were able to snag a reservation with no problem. It's a quaint, small restaurants nestled off of Rainey. Super cozy vibes inside with the main point of attraction being the open sushi bar. The tables around the bar are quite small and pushed against the booths. You will be seated very close to other tables, so keep that in mind if you're looking for space. Luckily, we came in early so the restaurant was pretty empty and we had no issues with noise. Everything was quite delicious. We basically tried all of their nigiris which were tasty and fresh but on the pricey side. The tuna crudo was okay-- nothing too special. My critique will be about the hand rolls. I wish they waited until the last second to hand them to you because the seaweed was super chewy and not ideal. I prefer my hand rolls to have the crispy seaweed. The black sesame panna cotta was a surprise favorite. Texturally it was perfect but could use more black sesame to dial up the flavor. The service was top notch! Staff were quick and attentive.

    We had a fantastic night and savored every dish that was served. To our lucky surprise we came…read moreduring happy hour, so we ordered many things off of the happy hour menu. Both of the sandos were perfect. The wagyu beef sando had a little bit more flavor but it was slight and both are worth trying. Every roll was enjoyable and I felt like each had a little twist that really made the flavors explosive, like a shaved onion or a crispy puff on the side of the roll. The service was stellar and they were easy to book on OpenTable I also tried the green tea mocktail and found it to be light and refreshing and I was happy that it wasn't super sweet My two favorite items were: 1. The Edamame - which were charred in a way that I feel like I've never experienced it before and had such great flavor. 2. The scallop roll had a thinly sliced shaved truffle on top that made the roll simple yet out of this world. Shout out to the manager who came by just to check in. I always think that is such a sweet gesture.

    I have not been to Tenten in such a long time and recently went here for a happy hour with one of…read moremy girlfriends and had such an amazing time. Because of the influx of so many amazing new sushi spots opening up in town. I forget to visit my old favorite spots and neglecting tenten was a big mistake. Their happy hour is absolutely one of the best deals there is and on Tuesdays they have $10 rolls all night which is an absolute steal. I particularly went there on a Wednesday to try their A5 Wagyu sandwich, but because I hadn't been there in so long, I wanted to have all the rolls that sounded so amazing on the happy hour menu that I couldn't even get to the sandwich. Every single role we had was absolutely off the charts. They even had a Toro role on happy hour for $10 which was such a steal. The service and ambience was also as usual impeccable. Can't wait to come back here to try the sandwich on another Wednesday

    I finally got a chance to visit and Uchi did not disappoint…read more Free valet parking with Apple Pay for tips. It seems they take reservations now. One of the reasons I never came before was that they didn't take reservations and I didn't want to drive 30 minutes and the wait hours for a table. Even at such an early hour on a Saturday, the place with hopping. The ambiance was a trendy one. We had reservations at 4:30. Happy hour is 4pm to 6pm and the HH menu will help keep the heft of your wallet at a good heavy level. All the food was great. Be prepared for a party to erupt in your mouth for each bite. The multitude of flavors that complement each other harmoniously in each mouthful will touch every part of your pallet. This is the only place that I have been to have this party going on for each dish. Overall I like this place better than its sister restaurant Uchiba. I'll be going to Uchiko soon to determine my favorite of the three but Uchi is at the top so far.

    This was my first time at Uchi. I was here to celebrate my friend's birthday, as this is one of her…read morefavorite places. We took advantage of the Happy Hour specials and tried a few items off the regular menu. She is the Sushi expert, so please forgive me for not remembering all the wonderful selections we sampled. The service was excellent, despite it being a tad busy. We had dined during their Happy Hour, yet our wait was never long for our entrees, as we finished each. Appreciated how our server provided the details of each dish as they were brought to our table. The ambiance of the restaurant was what I expected from the fine establishment this is. It's much more spacious than it looks from the outside. We were fortunate enough to be seated where we could observe dishes being prepared by the kitchen staff which added to the experience Overall, for my first time here, it was an outstanding experience.
