The Restaurant

Sequestered within an office building in San Francisco's Financial District, The Shota presents a sensory pleasure centered around Edomae sushi and classic kaiseki traditions. Chef Ingi "Shota" Son crafts a breathtaking culinary experience using imported Japanese ingredients and local produce. The restaurant has one Michelin star. The tasting menu features impeccably prepared nigiri, interspersed with small, composed dishes that highlight seasonal delicacies. The minimalist decor, featuring sleek wooden counters and subtle lighting, creates an intimate atmosphere where the focus remains on the culinary experience unfolding before the diners. The team behind The Shota is also opening a Japanese-influenced bar in SoMa.
