"I used to love coming here but everything about this place has changed. Besides covid experience, i tried to be rational about everything but from service to food.... everything is different from before. Most of the items that i come here for were not available, sold out? Sold out after an hour of opening? Thought it was just this time but i tried to come in and order those entrees multiple times and it wasn’t available as well. Their service seems to be struggling. Had reservation but was seated after a long wait.Very disappointing experience. Sad how the restaurant have changed to much"

"Very disappointing birthday experience! I spent my this year's birthday here at Gochi with my friends bc we've been here for several times and the food is always been pretty good so I wanted to bring our friends to here as well. However, at that night the service was very bad. Throughout the whole night it's very hard to call anybody to help with anything we need, no even saying when we tasted the oysters are not fresh they didn't do anything to it at first. We were telling a lady who looks like the manager there that the oysters tasted very bad and unfresh, but she actually went to talk to our next table before we even finish our sentence. Very rude and disappointing. At the end we didn't even try to have our cake there bc again the service was very bad and they charge for bringing our own cake. Terrible experience with the service. Disappointing birthday experience!"

"The restaurant has a spacious dining area with attentive service and good food presentation. However, the ventilation is poor, causing my clothes to smell like the kitchen when I left. Despite this, I would return for the delicious shumai and beautifully crafted sushi rolls."

"Order some sashimi, Sori and flavored Grilled Meat. Overall for me, decent place for Japan style catering. But for general experience, in this price tag, seems many other options is better. 1. Sashimi is $20, but just too little, only 4-5 small slices, this in other restaurants will only consider as appetizers. 2. flavored gilled chicken, use chicken breast, too dried. No good. 3. Sori, seems to use grilled chicken leg meat, this is quite good. Above average. 4. Waygu tho, I would say just normal, average, the meat is fine, but grill technique need some improvements. Overall, no wait line, probably good for simple catering if you visit this area, but not worth if waiting for hours and travel from distance. Average, so 3/5"

"If you 're looking for a delicious izakaya place that won 't break the bank, Tanto is a great choice! My family came here to celebrate a birthday, so I made a reservation for a Thursday night dinner about 2 weeks before. I 'm glad I did because once we got there, the place was crowded with numerous parties waiting outside as well. It took awhile for the staff to seat us, but once we did, we were seated at a private section tucked away in the back which was nice without all the chatter/business surrounding us. For my party of 4, we ordered around 6 or 7 dishes (I forget haha to share. Everything we ordered was fresh, delicious and perfect to share. The standout for us was definitely the Yaki Onigiri (grilled rice balls even though there 's no filling inside the rice ball, the slight char from the grill made each bite extremely flavorful. This was definitely a pleasant surprise to my entire party because we were thinking how good could a rice ball get? The dish that didn 't stand out to us as much was the grilled squid. It wasn 't anything different from what we 've tried before at other places, so if we were to ever order a similar dish, we 'd get the squid stuffed with rice to try. Overall, I don 't think you can go wrong with ordering anything from their menu just depends on what you want to try and what you 're in the mood for! I 'd definitely come back :"

"Last night, I had the pleasure of dining at Wakuriya in San Mateo, and I must say, the experience was quite remarkable. From the moment I stepped in, the serene and welcoming ambiance set the stage for what was an exquisite culinary journey.The service at Wakuriya was impeccable. The staff were attentive and knowledgeable, ensuring a seamless and enjoyable dining experience. Each course of the kaiseki menu was presented beautifully, showcasing a blend of traditional Japanese culinary artistry with subtle Californian influences. The highlights for me were the braised sea bass with its delicate yuzu gelee and the perfectly cooked Wagyu beef, which was both tender and flavorful.However, while the food and service were exceptional, I have some reservations about its Michelin star status. The quality and presentation were top-notch, but I felt that the overall experience, while delightful, did not fully align with other Michelin-starred restaurants I’ve visited in terms of creativity and culinary innovation.Additionally, considering the price point, I found Wakuriya to be slightly overpriced. While I understand and appreciate the quality of ingredients and the skill involved in preparing such dishes, the cost seemed a bit steep when weighed against the overall dining experience.In conclusion, Wakuriya is undoubtedly a great restaurant that I would recommend for those seeking high-quality Japanese cuisine in San Mateo. The serene atmosphere and meticulously prepared dishes make for a memorable dining experience. However, if you’re looking for a Michelin star-level experience, you might want to temper your expectations slightly, especially considering the price. Nonetheless, Wakuriya remains a gem in San Mateo’s culinary scene, and I am glad to have experienced its offerings."

Tachibana Japanese Restaurant

"Tachibana had a great variety on their menu. We really loved the sushi menu especially the negi-toro roll (definitely the favorite of the night). We also got the salmon carpaccio as an appetizer which was different from what other Japanese restaurant in the area served. Theirs has cheese on it which was unique and delicious. The entrees selection was also plentiful. I had a variety set (more traditional style Japanese bento) and it was very filling but a touch too expensive in my opinion. My husband had the sukiyaki which he could not finish because we over ordered as per usual. Unfortunately, we left our sukiyaki in a to-go container on the table and we called to come back and get it 15 minutes after but they already threw it out. They were also really busy for a Monday night so the sushi came out after the entree which was a little odd. The staff was really nice. We?ll be back to try other things."

"As you enter, you'll find a sushi bar on the left, with the dining area to your right. The layout of the restaurant is square, providing a unique dining experience. The food is outstanding, ranging from grilled skewers to sushi and specialty dishes—all of them were delicious. We tried the chicken meatball, plain pork belly, chicken cartilage, soft tail, braised pork, avocado tempura, ground chicken over rice (Soboro Don), and the Philadelphia roll. I highly recommend the deep-fried chicken cartilage, pork belly, and avocado tempura—especially with a bit of wasabi and soy sauce! The service here is exceptional. As soon as it seemed like we needed anything, a waiter appeared to assist us. All the staff worked together, so we were served by multiple waiters rather than just one, which was refreshing. It's frustrating to wait for your server, but that was never an issue here; they were always on the move, helping all the customers. Overall, it was a fantastic experience. I highly recommend making this your next casual date night!"

"This is an Omikaze which is a boiled dish restaurant. The emphasis is on a light cuisine and sashimi. There is an open kitchen view; you can sit at the counter or at a table. The atmosphere is supposed to have a local and small-community feel. The restaurant gave us a Midnight Diner (on Netflix) aura.You have the option of choosing your own courses or try a Kaiseki which are a set series of dishes that the Chef has chosen to tell a story with particularly paired flavor profiles.We chose our own dishes:Pork Belly with Black Vinegar (highly recommend, so flavorful that I ordered seconds), Box Sushi with Salmon (Chef Suzuki swapped in a fatty salmon because my girlfriend had frequented the restaurant before), Mushroom select soup (very light), Chazuke Rice in Broth with Scorched Rice and Sauteed Konbu Kelp (leathery kelp that has a great consistency and mouth feel) with Spinach. We also tried the Beef Gyoza which was also very flavorful with the right amount of crisp.I also had a nice imported Japanese beer and a lemony dessert sake.Carbs/fried options are recommended to go at the end because they fill you up and take away from the flavor profile of other dishes if you fill yourself up first.It can be a bit pricey, but that is expected with rampant inflation and price gouging across the United States. Also, their choice of ingredients and imported alcohol is not incredibly cheap.Despite some of the overly critical and pretentious reviews that I have seen of this place, I would recommend at least trying it out, being nice and respectful (that goes a long way), and having an open mind about the chef’s approach, history, storytelling, and journey.Chef Suzuki and staff were explicitly kind and accommodating to us even with 3 other tables while we were there. If you come enough times and get to know him, then you will have a chance to write on the wall and have a specially prepared meal in the back room with him. See the attached picture of the art on the wall that Chef Suzuki did himself. Parking: Plenty of parking in side streets and nearby businesses."
