We went to this restaurant to celebrate our engagement and everything was perfect, we were lucky to be sitting at the bar in front of the Chef. The cuisine is refined and the selection of fishes is great, same goes for the wine and champagne selection. The Chef seems to put his heart into giving the best culinary and human experience and he also kindly took the time to give us some restaurants recommendations for lunch the following day, before our flight back to France. Service was discreet yet considerate considering how special this night was for us. An overall amazing experience, we will back for sure next time we are visiting SF!
Great omakase experience. It seems they’ve switched the menu format from ala carte to just two prefixe options. While I miss the old menu, the new format makes it easy to order. The jalapeño marinated tuna was one of the best sushi pieces I’ve had. My only suggestion would be to alternate pieces. They bring out two bites of the same fish and I felt back to back bites of mackerel and tuna to be a bit much.
fav! sweet ambiente, small intimate setting. Apart from the sushi that was so fresh and tasty, I loved the cook. I am so happy that I could sit in the sushi bar and hear his strata and his little sweat over every piece in the set menu. perfect place for a romantic date or a platonic date, the exactly my sushi loving friend and I did at wako!
Wako is the perfect place to celebrate a special occasion or treat yourself. Their omakase is among the best in the city. The ingredients are fresh and seasonal, and the fish is always fresh, delicious, and sourced from around the globe. The presentation is beautiful and thoughtful. It’s a wonderful restaurant in every way.

Phenomenal service and delicious, meticulously prepared sushi. Sitting at the sushi counter is a must for the full experience. Watching the chef prepare our dishes and being able to ask questions along the way enhanced an already superb evening. Prices are on the expensive side but imo totally worth it.
Pretty blown away by the quality of fish at Wako! One of the best omakase experiences we have had in San Francisco. The sesame tofu, small bites, all of the sushi, and desserts were excellent. Certainly on the higher side, price wise, but the overall quality, and cuts of fish were superb.
Absolutely loved the place and the servers too. They were very friendly and explained every item on the menu explicitly.
An excellent experience. I was hoping for a little interaction with the sushi chefs as well but that didn't happen.

Best sashimi I’ve had. So fresh and filling. Pleasantly surprised by the monkfish liver too.
Good Sushi restaurant, not a michelin Star restaurant.
