Rintaro San Francisco Reviews from The Last Year
Rintaro is a must-visit when you're in SF.
The restaurant is decorated with beautiful Japanese keepsakes and its wooden architecture mixed with plants and thoughtful lighting make you relaxed and feel like you're immersed in a new place while on travel. I did the tasting menu, which allowed me to try out a lot of the "hits" on the menu. I got to sit along the bar facing the kitchen, where you can interact with the chefs and watch as the chefs grill seafood, plate food beautifully, and blend ingredients impeccably. Everyone on staff, including your server, the hostess, and beyond, treat you so kindly and warmly. I loved every step of my tasting menu. Some of my favorite parts included the sashimi, the hand-rolled udon, "bathing" daikon and fishcake, korokke, and the charcoal-grilled chicken. The dessert has a delicate green tea flavor that truly wows you. As you can tell, I pretty much enjoyed every part of my meal. For a tasting menu, you come away pretty full, extremely satiated, and very satisfied with a wonderful experience. I thought the price was also reasonable for SF, especially with the amount of food you get with the tasting menu. Worth a try and I look forward to visiting again soon!
Love the vibe! Wonderful, attentive service.
Delicious food. Got lucky as a walk-in on a busy night.
we had a dinner reservation at 5:00pm and we were seated
we had a dinner reservation at 5:00pm and we were seated right away. very quick service and loved the ambiance: think a fancy japanese cars land. if mater from cars land had generational japanese wealth and opened a restaurant. kanpachi no sashimi: this was amazing. they give 2 different types of ponzu. mix the fish with the ponzu and the GREEN SAUCE. this was life-changing hanetsuki gyoza: only OK, wouldn't order again. it's made with chicken jelly, but honestly this wasn't that special furofuki daikon: this oden soup was brewing for 3 days, according to the waitress. AMAZING! an earthier, richer cousin to the miso soup. the daikon was an added bonus kurobuta tonkatsu: this dish was nice. also nothing super special, but the chicken was very fresh and juicy! halitosis tsukune & inner thigh yakitori (off the menu): these 2 skewers were amazing. the meat literally melts on your tongue, and combined with the spice powder... perfection. kama tama udon: their most popular noodle dish, and i can see why. a combo of ginger, onion, butter, sesame, yummy goodness. order this!! hojicha pacotta: simply delicious! only wish they give bigger portions of this because this dessert is something i could never get tired of
I wanted to like this place, but it was by far the most
I wanted to like this place, but it was by far the most expensive AND worst tasting meal of our week-long trip to San Francisco. My husband and I did the set dinner menu. The yakitori, I'm sorry to say, was disgusting. It was all gristle and crunchy fat/grease. When I remember that dish, it gives me chills at how gross it was. The other dishes were bland and bitter. The one good dish was the panna cotta dessert. I feel bad leaving a negative review but the dishes were complete misses here and I would not recommend this place to anyone.
Everything went well.
The food was spectacular. Did the tasting menu. Since I went during Lent and it was a Friday, I wanted to do the tasting menu but not have any meat. They offer a pescatarian option for the tasting menu also did the sake pairing which was truly the best sake I've had. Service was fantastic. The vibes were so great. We sat in their outside courtyard area which had this cover very high over the top and so many well-working heaters so we weren't cold at all. And it was late February. Cannot speak more highly of this place.

Highly recommended, the sashimi is sourced from known fishermen, the options are unique and well paired with the menu, would totally come here again -smoked buckwheat tea on ice

Came for an early dinner on Friday evening for 2 in their courtyard seating section. Should def try to get a reservation in advance as it's quite busy. Got recommend 5-7 dishes for 2 people and that was a solid amount of food: Tuna croquette- 3/5 tasted good but kind of reminded me of what a fried tuna meatloaf would taste like Kama Tama udon - 3/5 al dente udon for sure, kind of plain tasting though Yakitori - 4/5 wish I got more options like the chicken thigh and pork Crab salad - 3.5/5 generous portion of crab and the kumquat was a nice garnish, but the lettuce was bitter Mabodufu - 3.5/5 solid and cozy with nice balance of ginger and green onion Overall 4/5 since the ambience is wonderful and staff is attentive. Came here for bday and multiple staff wished us happy bday. Will come again to try other menu options
My husband and I loved our experience here! We were seated
My husband and I loved our experience here! We were seated at the counter, which we love because we enjoy watching all the kitchen action. We were browsing the menu and saw that Rintaro had a $75 set menu option that looked really good. We ended up ordering that! The set menu was delicious and super filling! My favorites were the chicken & cheese katsu (juicy chicken + light and crisp batter was a match made in heaven), the ikura don (their ikura was SO good), and the hojicha panna cotta. I cannot explain how delicious the hojicha panna cotta is--so perfectly creamy, not too sweet, and had the fragrant hojicha flavor. Overall we had a great experience and would love to come back to try more of the menu!
Absolutely one of the best Japanese restaurants I've been
Absolutely one of the best Japanese restaurants I've been to! Sustainable and locally sourced, utilizing Japanese techniques and tastes, perfect blending of traditional preparation with a California twist. Along with the delicious food, the artistic plating and impeccable service beg you to hurry to find the next evening you can return to try more dishes. How lucky we are to have such a wonderful place !!!
Food was good.
I was disappointed that they sold out their set menu. It was to celebrate my son's birthday and we were looking forward to the set menu.
Located in San Francisco, parking can be hard to find here
Located in San Francisco, parking can be hard to find here so just a heads up. Upon entering the restaurant, they have a beautiful outdoor seating with heating available. If you sit outside, you can see someone make the oden meals. The interior inside is gorgeous, gave me a cozy vibe that brought me back to Japan. Service here was top notch. I really liked that they were attentive if we needed more water or had any questions regarding the menu. Everyone was super friendly here and welcoming. They have a variety of food on their menu where they are under different types of meals: Sashimi, Dressed dishes, Ryo Unagi, Oden, Fried dishes, Yakitori, Final dish (rice/udon), and Dessert. If you feel like you can't pick and choose they do offer a set menu with their popular dishes that costs $75 per person. All the food we ordered ended up being so delicious! The maguro was so fresh, the udon and the broth tasted so good that you can tell it was cooked for a long time since the broth was so flavorful. The oden really brought us back to our time in Japan. Luckily, when we went there was someone from Japan who was grilling the unagi. The unagi tasted so different from what one typically gets from a japanese restaurant. Try it, you won't forget it. Unfortunately, we ended up ordering so much food that we didn't have room for dessert. Definitely coming back again to try out more dishes AND the dessert!
A treasure in the Mission
We have a new favorite for our Wednesday Date Night. The place was so busy and the staff is so friendly while being totally professional. Our waiter suggested the Prix Fixe so that we would get a chance to try all their "Greatest Hits" so that is what we did. We added a plate of sushi to start which was some of the freshest fish I have had. There was a selection of wasabi, mustard, and a sauce for the fresh scallop that was so good. The Yakitori Tsukune was so tender and flavorful it could be a meal on its own. My favorite was the Mabodofu Don which is what I am definitely ordering the next time we go. My husband enjoyed it all - especially watching the owner hand prepare the Udon noodles we had in our Kake Udon.
Excellent food, overwhelmingly loud music
Iโd been wanting to go to Rintaro ever since a friend raved about it some months ago. I wish I could rave but being there felt more like being IN a rave. The music was excruciatingly loud such that we couldnโt hear people sitting next to us never mind on the other side of the table. We asked for it to be turned down which it was but the difference was negligible. When I asked again, the server said sheโd already asked them and that she wasnโt in charge of the music. I could go on with details but suffice to say that the music was so loud that it was hard to enjoy the excellent food. If you like Hard Rock Cafe-level sound, youโll love this. If not, bring earplugs. No joke. And order the reasonably priced and delicious tasting menu.

Agreed. Ultimately not addressing this month after month is clearly resulting in a drop in certain venueโs rankings & sales.

Working on your bid? |
Your bid has been โmatchedโ with a reservation. From the time a reservation has been located, the seller of the reservation must connect with moderator to give transfer information for reservation. If the seller;however, does NOT respond to reservation transfer, then your bid is reprocessed and returns to the first step, which is connecting your request to a reservation.
Process after bid is accepted. |
Hey @EvocativeFold67, welcome to appointmenttrader! Once the reservation is in your portfolio, you definitely own the timeslot, the review team would not have approved the trade if the reservation wasn't confirmed - so you are going :-) Judging from your post you bid today and are going tomorrow - don't worry as long as you initiated the name transfer, you are good - the transfer service has to work with the opening hours of the reservation team of the respective venue. You will likely see the transfer confirmation a couple hours before your reservation time.
Where do the Reservations on AppointmentTrader come from? |
Mostly from people who don't need their reservations or appointments any longer. AT has no relationship with places listed and acts as a platform connecting buyers and sellers making sure that listed reservations are real and that privacy is not compromised when transacting.
What happens if my bid expires unanswered? |
Hey @FluffyStar64, thanks for the question! When you place your bid the amount gets transferred in a deposit account, the second you either cancel your bid or a few minutes after the bid expires the funds are moved back into your main account from where you can refund it to your payment method or use for other transactions.
