Exceptional service, nigiri, sake pairings and a long, sleek counter.
SF is home to many Michelin-starred, Tokyo/edomae-style sushi bars, but one of my newer favorites since 2018 is The Shota. Exceptional service, nigiri, sake pairings and a long, sleek counter feel upscale and elegant compared to more traditional, wood-lined sushi bars (which I also love). No wonder it also gained a Michelin star in 2021.
