    HH Sunomono salad
    Evelina V.

    Came here for happy hour and loved their small bites. Their hand roll of the day was salmon yuzu. Its the decor was all minimal but super cute. They also have an outdoor patio with a fireplace. Also got their tuna taco with came on a fried eggplant (which was so delicious) their sunomono salad

    Dining month dessert - mochi butter cake with anko and pear

    A restaurant connected to Japanese outdoors company Snowpeak? Sure, it's interesting. I like that they use some of the Snowpeak gear for the service, such as their stainless steel cups for the sake flight. The restaurant itself has a Japanese wood-modern and simple aesthetic. It's cute. They've got the sushi bar and then the back wall with the fire going for the meats. We came in to try the Portland Dining Month menu. It was good - 3 courses, with simple but varied flavors. My only complaint is that the portion of fish was so small, especially compared to the amount of rice they give. I might be annoyed by the smaller portions if I were ordering a la carte. Service was decent, but not particularly amazing to go along with the higher price point here. Happy hour seems like the way to go, considering that the food was good, but now WOW. My cocktail was also good hit on the sweet side. We had a good time for dining month, but I think we will stick to HH if we come back.

    Great service. Great food. Great ambiance. Had such a delicious experience at Takibi and cannot wait to come back and try the rest of the menu. Had the crispy miso potatoes, maki roll, karaage, panko shrimp, and the spring market salad. Everything was amazing, especially the potatoes! The clean design fits the outdoorsy Japanese aesthetic.

    First course.

    Really cool venue, attached to Snowpeak store, We had the omakase menu - five courses of deliciousness and well presented food. Make sure you're very hungry before starting. Service was fun and helpful.

    Winter Omakase - the experience was delightful and the chef did an excellent job pairing the food with the selection of sake. We also paired with their NA cocktails, my first, and two thumbs up for the choice of mixture. We were happy with our choices of going with the omakase instead of Ala carte. The staff was all so friendly and informative. We had a reservation and were seated almost immediately. Questions regarding the dishes were described and answered intelligently. The restaurant has an open kitchen with a "fireplace" or wood fire grill. I love how one is able to observe and enjoy the workings of the kitchen . And also, the atmosphere was calming and surprisingly quiet (there was a table with eight) which allowed for conversation to take place without yelling across the dinner table, which is my pet peeve. So the experience was pleasant and positive and I would return and try their lunch menu.

    I always have an amazing meal each time I come here. The dining room is cozy, warm & inviting. All of my servers in the past have been knowledgable & kind. Get their omakase, it's a fun experience!

    Such a cool spot behind the Snow Peak store on 23rd. When we went, they had a limited menu due to short staffing. I was excited to try their grilled menu but it wasn't available at the time so it was a shame. We got their ramen and some sushi. Their ramen was very good and was very different from all other ramen I have tried before. The quality of their fish is immaculate. Their yellowtail jalapeno was delicious.

    Ambiance: 10/10 Visibly stunning space. If you arrive to the area early, luckily you're in the Nob Hill area and lots of walkable entertainment. If you're lucky enough, they do have a couple of spaces for parking in the back lot otherwise you are hopeful for street parking in this very busy area. The outdoor store also attached to the restaurant serves as a good browsing for outdoor goods. Service: 6/10 A lot left to be desired. Firstly, we arrived early within minutes prior to opening hours. We checked in and acknowledged our early arrival, the staff politely asked to wait a few more minutes-we obliged by waiting by the wood seating area within feet of the glass door. Then an elderly couple went in to check in and were seated right away so we walked back in then were seated. The actual service itself wasn't outstanding. The orders did appear to come when they were ready from various servers-it wasn't out of order. Food: 8/10 Great! No complaints. We didn't do the omakase offerings this time and elected to try a little bit of everything. I enjoyed the wasabi here as complimentary to fresh fish options. I enjoyed the Panko Shrimp for its super extra crunchiness-my partner didn't. Both daily hand rolls were good selection. The unagi maki was a good size and good. I would probably come back just to the ramen. But the seafood/experience for me, isn't a must return. Value: 7/10

    Chicken karage
    Surabhi A.

    We had heard a lot of good things about this place and went here for a dinner date. It was fun experience overall. The disappointing thing was that they were out of tuna and salmon possibly because it was a Sunday night but I wish they had planned their supply chain better. That's why we could not try their sushi rolls fully and had to stick to entrees. Our server was nice to check availability for dishes and gave us suggestions for good sake. We got both the flights and all were great and tasty. We got the black cod which was the star of the show, chicken karage was amazing as well, spicy edemame was great as well. We got the unagi roll which wasn't too good, we also did not enjoy the a5 takamori drunken wagyu nor did we like matcha ice cream but that's probably because we don't like matcha in general. We would come back to try the lunch menu!

    The missus and I went here tonight for Dining Month. It was all fantastic. From the service to the quality of the dishes - and after observing the other patrons, I could see that we didn't get lesser service simply because we were there fornthe discounted experience. We are already making plans for our next visit.

    Hamachi Carpaccio
    Crystal N.

    Have you ever used chopsticks to enjoy ribeye expertly-cooked in a beautiful indoor open wood fire grill with perfectly-charred edges, tender centers, and flavorful seasonings in an exquisite Japanese-inspired restaurant where you can also melt into the experience of using chopsticks to fully lean in to the taste and gorgeous texture of hamachi carpaccio swimming in delightfully-stunning sauce and then when you set those chopsticks down, you get the pleasure of sipping a special frothy tangy cocktail with mezcal? I have. And you can too.

    Sashimi

    We came here on a double date after hearing consistently great things. The food itself was good and that is the only reason this review is one star. Unfortunately, the service was genuinely awful and completely overshadowed the experience. From the start, we felt like an inconvenience. It took over 30 minutes for anyone to come take our order. When a server finally did, their attitude was dismissive and strange. There was even a comment made that implied surprise that we wanted to order food at all, which was uncomfortable and confusing in a restaurant of this caliber. Throughout the night, we were handled by three different servers, all of whom were rude, unaccommodating, and rarely checked on us. There was no warmth, no attentiveness, and no sense that we were welcome. When the food came out, we noticed that two items from our order never arrived. We asked if everything had come out, and we were told yes. We then clarified that we were certain two items were missing. At that point, the response was, "Do you still want them?" By then, we had finished eating and said no, since we were wrapping up our date. Later, while we were still sitting and talking, we decided we would take one of the missing items after all, the skirt steak. When it arrived, it was ice cold. It was obvious that the dish had been prepared earlier, charged to our bill, never delivered, and then served to us much later after sitting. While the item was eventually comped, serving cold food due to a service failure is unacceptable. What made this experience worse was the consistent attitude from the staff. Two female servers with dark brown/black hair and a male server with glasses were all noticeably curt and unpleasant. Every person at our table noticed it. It felt like we were unwanted, despite ordering generously and being polite throughout the night. This place felt dismissive and disorganized. Good food cannot compensate for service that makes guests feel uncomfortable and disregarded. We left a measly tip to signal our displeasure but I didn't think they deserved a tip at all. We wanted to love this place. Instead, we left disappointed and frustrated.

    First of all, it's so nice that this restaurant has a parking lot and an accessible parking space. The inside is beautiful. We did the 7 courses omakase and tried both of their mocktails and the sake pairing. The verdant growth was my favorite of the two mocktails. I would have loved to hear a little bit more about the sake that was paired with each course. We mostly just got the name of it. The food was delicious, with the highlights being the salmon collar, the rice, and the tempura. We did the omakase with three people, I'm curious if the portions would be mostly the same size with two. The sashimi was also fresh and delicious. The restrooms were accessible, large, and gender neutral. Overall, great experience and would love to return to try the ramen!

    How is the portion size? Will an average adult leave hungry when only getting a bowl of ramen?

    Our portions are quite large. Most people do not leave hungry. But we do have wonderful small plates to add on if you’re really hungry.

    Do I need to make a reservation in advance, or can I just walk in?

    We just walked in but I'm sure you could make a reservation if needed.

From the second my partner and I walked in at 4:30 PM, we were greeted by a server who made it immediately clear we were bothering them. When seated, I asked for a dinner menu thinking they'd given us a lunch menu by mistake. I was told dinner doesn't start until 5:00 PM (something listed nowhere online, despite their online presence highlighting all their dinner options). And since when does lunch run up until 5pm? The latest I've ever seen is 3 or 4. The final straw was asking about the only vegan option on the menu, which was labeled "spicy." When I asked how spicy it was, the same server gave a completely patronizing response: "I'm not sure your level of spice..." My partner and I looked at each other in shock at how openly rude this person was. We got up, picked up our stuff, and walked out before ordering. I'm 51 years old, and I can count on one hand the number of times in my life I've walked out of a restaurant due to bad service before even getting food. Sadly, this was one of them. The gap between how great this place was portrayed online and how poorly we were treated in person was staggering.

Nice that they give a whole egg (for $3) because the preset ramens come with half. Noodles were great, and pretty filling given the default price point. Add ons are great to enhance the taste, but won't impact fullness too much. Yuzu Shoyu - personally thought the preset ramens were nothing special. Barely any greens, felt like just a garnish. One piece of chashu and half an egg. Noodles were tasty though! Broth was on the lighter side.

The kitchen brings out steaming bowls incredibly fast, filled with rich broths and excellent toppings with an efficient, straightforward dining style. Tonkotsu Shoyu (4/5): A deeply comforting and classic bowl of ramen. They offer a generous portion of perfectly cooked noodles paired with plenty of fresh vegetables like spinach, green onions, and mushrooms. The soft-boiled egg was perfectly yolky, but the dish would've been elevated even further with a slightly more generous serving of chashu pork. Tonkotsu Red (5/5): A unique variation for those who love a bit of heat. It shares the same chewy noodle and vegetable foundation as the Shoyu, but has a spicy broth that builds and ramps up the more you slurp. The heat was a distinct, subtle numbing sensation reminding me of Sichuan peppercorns, creating an incredibly flavorful and unique twist on a traditional tonkotsu base. Logistics Tip: This is a fast and casual self-service setup where you walk right up to the counter upon entering to order from the menu displayed on the wall. Indoor seating is limited to a few long, communal tables, so be prepared to potentially share space with other diners during peak hours, and remember to bus your own dishes when finished. For parking, street spots are easy to find and can be paid for using the local Parking Kitty app.

I can see the hype and I would get it again if there were no other options, but there's something missing in the tonkotsu broth that would really take it to the next level.

Overall this place was just... good. I'm certain I can find better. The customer service was great, but another thing that bothered us were there were sooo many flying insects inside. They've gotta get some fans or something because it really ruined the experience for us.
