With suggestions and attentiveness and really vibing with our needs. The restaurant was out of stock of my favorite dish (seared white albacore), but I was so happy our alternatives worked out to perfection. We were blessed with the first of their new beef dish they haven't launched on their menu quite yet and it was perfection. The beef melted and was savory and absolutely delicious. Give Jazmine a raise! Oh and our greeter, who I assume was the owner couldn't have been more gracious or kinder. I will definitely be back!

Twas a solo, business trip on a Friday night, so I was able to experience this place on full, local display. Sat at the sushi bar and I was able to watch the chef make my Oco personally. The only reason I left a star out is because as I sat at one of those bar spots, I was exposed to the back side of the deep fryer so not only was it warm but it was a touch scummy. It needed to be cleaned thoroughly. (To me that something you expect in Japanese culture is the expected cleanliness.) The service was not bad, perhaps not top notch, maybe due to the fact it was a full house with tables turning over. Overall well done and I will return.

I went about 8 months ago and the waiter that took my order, brought me the wrong ramen bowl. It was still delicious, just unfortunate that he wasn't really listening. And then I went a few months ago and was disappointed because the waitress had just received multiple to go orders and she told me I would have to come back. At the time I was a bit frustrated and decided I wouldn't go back. I'll be honest I was a bit hangry. I just got in town and gave it another chance! So glad I did! I ordered the Tonkatsu ramen. Delicious. Savory. Exactly what I wanted on a rainy dark day! I've also had the Ford Ranch Filet mignon ramen, which was also savory and warming. I didn't have the experience of too much chimichurri. I always get the spice bomb. I'm glad I went back! Still my favorite place to go to when I get into town! Thank you!!!

Shocked to find something this good in Willits. Could not tell it was open though. There is no "open" sign and the light on top of the door was not obvious. I spent 30 seconds peering through the window, and apparently the server was waving at me, but I could not see inside. I only happened to try the door which was unlocked. I'm not saying this as a boomer. I've lived in a lot of places and eaten at a lot of restaurants. Give it a shot, you will not be disappointed.

Their decor is quirky and fun inside, with only a few tables, so reservations are recommended (although we managed to get a table walking in on a weekday afternoon). They have a massive selection of teas, pretty much any kind you can think of and then some, as well as an impressive selection of sake. Which all goes well with their ramen, which is the only thing we tried this time. It's not quite the typical ramen you would see at Japanese spots in SF or South Bay, but I imagine quite good for North Bay and tasty in their own right. I wouldn't mind going back even just for teas and sake and maybe some lighter bites.

We recently relocated to Sonoma county (The Sea Ranch) from Silicon Valley (Menlo Park) and have had some nice meals along the coast since we moved here FT (Harbor House, Ledford House etc) but this little spot is a real gem. Friends recommended it so we had a double date night and filled the table with all sorts of goodies. Great evening and food. Highly recommended. Small, simply situated on a very quiet street in Point Arena. A few doors down from a decent locally sourced weed shop (also worth a visit BTW), and a local fish monger (Point Arena is a commercial fishing port) and solid local bakery (Pelican), this excellent restaurant serves up a variety of rotating locally sourced small plates and yakatori style grilled meats and veggies as well as some raw fish and stews as well. Highlights were the sashimi, the fish roe on rice, the grilled pork belly, the grilled cabbage salad, the tempura shrooms and the fried chicken oysters as well as the grilled chicken thighs. All excellent. They have a nice selection of saki's as well (we had 2 small bottles to share $20/each) and to close the meal we had the Matcha ice cream with passion fruit ! All in for 4 people including tax and tip $250...which in today's world seemed very fair to me. Great meal and great vibe overall. Chef/owners apparently have strong training and work experience in Japanese settings and fine dining restaurants- which may explain why this place does very simple things so well... Make a reservation on the weekends otherwise you'll miss out or end up eating at the bar. There are certainly worse things to do than that...however, trust me. Visit here and thank me later. Well done Izakaya Gama ! We will be back. This will undoubtedly be on our regular "locals dining out rotation" now. Bravo Izakaya Gama !

Fried, grilled, steamed, raw... not a single miss. We were staying just up the block on a short getaway, and this ended up being one of the most memorable parts of the trip. At one point we were talking about Rintaro in SF, and the chef overheard us--she mentioned he knew the folks there and spoke highly of them. Honestly, after eating here, I think Gama is better, and at a much friendlier price point. Warm atmosphere, great food, and a chef who clearly cares about what they're doing. This place is a win all around.

Our server shared the special of the day, what wasn't currently available and when asked of his favorite quickly responded with some gems. My partner knew exactly what she wanted - Pineapple Cauliflower Salad22 (Crispy Asian cauliflower, mixed greens, cabbage, carrots, peanuts, crispy rice noodles, sesame seeds, crunchy garlic, pineapple pico, green onions, and edamame with a Basil-lime vinaigrette 1/2 Cauliflower salad). I had a bite and it was very flavorful. The cauliflower looked like orange chicken. This dish is vegan btw. I was torn between the fish and chips and the Jalapeno Bacon burger. The server said it was a favorite earlier so I went with it. (Grilled Short Rib, Brisket, Chuck patty served on a toasted brioche bun with melted cheddar cheese, bacon, fried jalapenos, lettuce, tomato, and onions with our overloaded sauce). Man was this good! The burger was juicy, the thick cuts of bacon and the sauce. Everything complimented one another nicely. They make their ketchup in house throughout the week. You can tell too! It has it's own flavor that outdoes regular ketchup. The fries were crispy, lightly salted and just enough. Service was friendly. We were checked on throughout our meal to ensure the food was good and so were we. They do offer a rewards program we signed up for. This is definitely going to be a go to spot for us.
