General Info

The house is located in North Beach - an area filled with Italian food and strip clubs. The restaurant is tiny and the seats are rather cramped in a cozy, non annoying way. The decoration is mild and subtle - it seems to play well on the 'house' theme. The tables chairs and dishes are all simple and well worn, as you'd expect at a family home rather than an upscale restaurant, which adds to the homey and non pretentious vibe of the whole place. The server came and rattled off a long list of specials that, after reading other reviews, don't seem to be a special but rather just menu items that havent yet been printed on the menu. I remembered only a few from the long list so it might help to cut down the specials list, and write it down for people to be able to take it in. We ordered: Grilled unagi - this was a full eel grilled on top of what looked to be rice lightly seasoned with a wasabi mix, topped with bonito flakes. The eel is soft and the rice is also on the mushier side, which creates an overall mushy texture. Tasted good (it's rice and unagi. Never a bad combo) but found nothing notable or special. Could do with some more texture.
