Winner of one of the few Michelin Guide Bib Gourmand awards for best affordable dining in San Francisco, Namu is definitely worth seeking out- with reservations recommended.

The food is exquisitely prepared with unexpected flavor combinations and textures to excite your taste buds. Namu’s wine and wine cocktail offerings also parallel its revolutionary dishes. With delicious sake infused drinks and a well-selected wine list, its no wonder that guests are clamoring for their coveted seats.
