Martin D. CiaoAugust 22, 2014Kitayama was such a great place for dates few years back. The furnitures are a bit worn out, but the court yard still pretty. Most surprising was their vegan option! Very innovative and delicious.
Dëva HolikOctober 21, 2014Come for lunch it's cheaper and the specials are great. Best is Friday for the garlic salmon. If you come for dinner check the board thy often have live shrimp and yellow tail collar- Md WongJuly 11, 2014Go for the lunch specials and call ahead for a reservation. This place can get pricy and crowded. I enjoy their organic teriyaki chicken with sushi and salad. Yum.
Mika TakahashiJanuary 2, 2015Sit at the sushi bar where Jun is serving, he's the most skilled sushi chef at Kitayama! Sushi prepared for tables is made by the most junior sushi chef.
Russell DurantJanuary 29, 2014Try the cucumber rolls - Great food, The bartender Ted is the best! Sit at the bar or outside and have a glass of wine with dinner!- Russell DurantJanuary 29, 2014Try the Salmon Teryaki - I love that I can walk over from Marriott Bayview! Few glasses of wine and only have to walk across the street!
MereAugust 20, 2014The sukiyaki comes out on an individual heating tray. Fun to eat, and tasty, too!
Kaz K.June 15, 2015Management must have changed; food is different from before. More "Americanized" and not as traditional as before. Service is still great, but... Unfortunate changes imo. Maybe better in the future.
Annie AyerstApril 24, 2011Sushi bar-let yama-san and jun make whatever they want. Pepper snapper and seared salmon sushi are my faves
Delight yourself with the baby anchovies Mizuna rice. Takes 20min to prepare.
Lukey BApril 2, 2010Great lunch specials. Get there early and get the sushi special; they only make 15 each day for lunch..
Black sesame creme brulee and red bean ice cream for dessert!
