Kiraku

Kiraku does not disappoints! Except for the line outside. Service is kind and food is delicious! Sashimi so fresh and special uni eel , loved that one. Sake tasting too. But expensive , but worth it!

A must-order are the duck pot stickers ($6) with balsamic sauce. The gyoza were golden brown and tender, and the flavor of this dish is out of the park (especially when you dunk them in the sauce). Read more

Incredible authentic Izakaya , should be rated a 10. Giant Squid , Corn Tempura , Wagyu Uni Nigiri , Anchovy Broccoli , Bluefin Kimchi Stew , Grilled Beef Tongue , Fried Fish Collar. Green Tea Ice Cream

The Deluxe Kaisen Box is a craftfully assembled box with lines of negitoro, hiramasa, uni, ikura , scallops , sweet shrimp , tobiko over special sushi rice .

Try out a few different things every time! Albacore ceviche , corn tempura , chicken karage , garlic edamame , beef tongue skewer are favs. Grapefruit/green tea ice cream & strawberry cheesecake - delish!

Roasted Angus beef tongue melts in your tongue . Corn tempura also delicious. Sashimi special ???? yaki udon alright / too salty. snow crab & brocollini alright.

The chef has a background in French cooking and it shows well . Try the more innovative dishes, beyond the standard Japanese items!

The waitresses are incredibly adorable and endearing. We've only been here twice and they recognized us. And didn't charge us for beers ! Plus the food is delicious. Try the foie gras + daikon !

Giant squid and beef tongue are delicious! The sauce given is also amazing

Inexpensive creative dish, the grilled fish and Uni dishes are great

Authentic Japanese place. Portions are small but tasty. This is not a sushi restaurant .

Open Wednesday - Sunday and always crowded . To make a reservation , however, your party must order alcohol and each person has to spend a minimum of $30.

The fries are a must, and we always finish the meal with the yaki udon (sautéed udon with basil sauce ) http://bit.ly/10egem6

get there early or make reservations ! this place has amazing food, yet unpretentious. menu selections are vast and unique! so yummy!

Nice and hoppin Japanese tapas joint, good selection of sake .

Nice Japanese tapas place! If you're feeling adventurous, try the beef tongue (not the one on the skewer ).

This. Place. Rocks. Tuna Cheek Meat Steak , Corn Tempura , Jumbo Squid , Beef Tataki ????

Get the Berkeley-brewed Sho Chiku Bai junmai daiginjo, produced exclusively with California rice .

Order something outside your comfort zone. You won't regret it! Amazing food and service!!!

I could eat the tempura corn by the truckload.

Sashimi is ON POINT. Damn, the scallops melted in my mouth.

Make reservations to avoid long waits . It's a small cozy place so it tables fill up quick

The giant squid hands down!

American Wagyu Niguiri... A must ????

Great selection of sake , try the Ippin!

Grilled everything should be tried out

Try the squid and fried chicken . You wont be sorry.
