Came here for Dine About Down 2009. Best steak I've ever had!!

$60 for experience package

This is one of my favorite restaurant in the area. Tapas are great, especially the crab salad, and the hot food are awesome too. I love the katzu don and the noodle soups. Izakaya is a great place for friends just having a drink and catching up.

Happy Hour: from 4-7pm (Wed-Thurs), serving $1 oysters and tempura. Great tapas (beef tongue stew, seafood stone bowl) and the best Hamachi I've ever had.

"Sushi to swoon for", a "spectacular sake list" and Japanese fusion entrees that show an "artist's touch" "set the standard by which other Japanese restaurants should be judged" at Sausalito's "inspired" temple to "incredibly fresh" fish; prepare to pay a "goodly sum" for this "world-class experience" that unfolds in a "calm" dining room that is "comfortable" rather than "beautiful"; when unable to land that "difficult-to-get prime-time reservation", devotees "line up early" for the adjacent wine bar.

Ferry to Sausalito. Board at the Ferry Building.
