During a visit up North, some friends treated us to some amazing Sushi at a small unassuming restaurant in a Menlo Park strip mall called KAYGETSU ~ so good!
The photos speak for themselves! Here is what Zagat had to say:
Review
“You’ll be hard-pressed to find Japanese food made with
more care and flair” without “getting on a jet to Tokyo”
attest admirers who say get thee to this “spartan” yet
“transcendent” “power dining spot for VCs” in a
Menlo Park strip mall; the fish is “über-fresh” and
the seasonal kaiseki dinners are“extraordinary”, from the
“beautiful presentation” that’s like “art on a plate"
to the “melt-in-your-mouth creations” that taste like
“heaven”; the “drawback: you must offer your paycheck
to the sushi gods” (“genius chef”/owner Toshi) but it’s
“worth every penny.”
