Best Restaurants with a Tasting Menu in Japantown

Best food ever ! Love the food and vibes ! Best pasta

Each course was perfectly placed and presented. A very special meal and dining experience overall. The team were attentive to our timeframe and made sure we made it to our show on time. Truly excellent Michelin style service. Top notch.

Nice food, beautiful restaurant, & great service. Made our visit to San Francisco special!

The food quality at Octavia is very high. The chefs really know what they’re doing. We had a pre-fixe menu for Christmas Eve dinner and they accommodated dietary restrictions with advanced notice. They actually called a few days in advance of the reservation to confirm the dietary restrictions which was really nice. We had 9 courses I think and they were all delicious. My favorites were the soup and the pasta dishes. The service was also very good, the servers were very attending and accommodating. There was one dish I didn’t eat much of because it had radicchio in it which I don’t like, and our server offered to have the kitchen make me a replacement dish with a different lettuce instead. The only negative of Octavia is that it feels very cramped. The space is small and they squeeze in a lot of tables so you’re sitting basically on top of other diners and it’s a little awkward. Everything else was great though. I would definitely recommend Octavia as a good place for special occasions or bringing out of town visitors.

We visited this restaurant for a special occasion, and it exceeded our expectations in every way. The servers were incredibly friendly and polite, making us feel welcome from the moment we arrived. The restaurant was also very accommodating of our food preferences, and every dish we tried was delicious and beautiful! The main dishes were filing and satisfying. To make our celebration even more special, they surprised us with personalized cards, a small gift, and a delicious cake! We can’t recommend this place highly enough!
