Yozora might be one of the most intimate and thoughtfully curated dining experiences in San…read moreAntonio. The entire space feels cozy with indoor & outdoor seating. The listening bar concept paired with their state-of-the-art custom sound system makes the atmosphere feel immersive from the second you walk in. The music, lighting, and outstanding service all work together perfectly when you're trying to unwind and decompress after a long week. The lychee martini was smooth, refreshing, and extremely lychee forward. I really enjoyed how they garnished the drink with two whole lychees. I was in heaven and I can honestly say this was one of my favorite cocktails I've had in the city (Thanks for the recommendation Annabelle). Food-wise, everything felt elevated and pieced together beautifully on each plate. The truffle creamy miso soup was warm & comforting with just the right amount of depth and the Asian pear cucumber salad was perfect to cleanse the palate after the soup. The Hawaiian ono was another standout that absolutely delivered. That cilantro oil and the yuzu dance together well with the soft & silky ono. I also really enjoyed the scallop crudo, it also has cilantro oil but this time with ponzu foam. This combination was so good that I absolutely had no shame sipping the married liquid components on the plate between each bite of scallop. Lastly, the wagyu mochi gnocchi is unreal--rich, melt in your mouth mochi gnocchi, savory shrimp and tender wagyu, and this velvety sauce that's semi addicting. This surf-and-turf style dish with seafood and wagyu is where Yozora really flexes; every bite felt balanced, indulgent, and beautifully plated. (This particular evening the sauce on the mochi gnocchi was a touch spicier for me than the first time I visited but I enjoyed every last bite nonetheless). I went a little ham and didn't have room for dessert this time unfortunately. Next time Huge shoutout to my server Annabelle, who made the entire night seamless. My water never even got close to empty, her recommendations were spot on, and she somehow balanced taking care of the bar while still making her tables feel attended to. The rest of the staff even tag teamed service throughout the dining room which I always enjoy seeing. It says a lot about how well the staff and overall concept works together there. Symphony for the soul. Thank you again Annabelle and team for making the whole evening easy to enjoy and adding so much to the experience. Yozora absolutely lives up to the hype. Add it to your list of spots to keep coming back for.

We decided to try this place for lunch while we were in the area. As soon as we walked in, we were…read moregreeted and seated right away. Service was very efficient and friendly! For ramen, I recommend the "red" Aka Fuku. For udon noodles, the tofu was delicious as well if you need a vegetarian option. There is a small kids' menu and other non-noodles traditional Japanese dishes available as well. For drinks, there are the standard soft drink options, hot teas(or cold), beer, and wine. The atmosphere is very casual, but not to the point of feeling like a rushed lunch hour. It was not very crowded on our visit, but I noticed they probably get more to-go orders than seated service. Hoka Hoka Fuku is an excellent choice in the area if you're looking to have Japanese food. I can't wait to go back and try this place for dinner.

Located in a strip mall, parking was ample. We didn't have to wait long to get seated. Menu had a variety, but still maintained a simplicity. Ordered my go to anywhere- tonkotsu black. Delicious rich broth and added some sriracha for a kick. Ramen noodles were ok, but would have preferred my fave, udon. I just love the thicker noodles. Server stated udon was a not possibility for the kuro black soup. Friends also ordered the steamed and pan fried chicken gyoza. Service was prompt and establishment was clean. Good food.

This was our first experience at Uni'Ko, and certainly will not be our last…read more Our server was Brian. He was incredibly personable and attentive. Super friendly. The food was incredible. We had sashimi, rolls, appetizers and a bottle of sake. I've frequented many sushi restaurants all over the country for years and this restaurant absolutely delivers. Incredibly fresh fish! Meticulously well prepared and delicious. Wow! So very happy we discovered this place. We arrived early about 3:30pm, so the restaurant was quiet with a few patrons. The restaurant feels romantic with dim lighting and good music. Kudos to the Chef!! Great food. Thank you so much. It was money well spent. Cheers!

My first visit to Uni'ko was an overall success. I had a midweek, early reservation for two. On…read morearrival there was no one yet at the hostess stand but they soon came and got us seated. I was immediately annoyed because the music was very loud to me. That could have been due to the empty restaurant, the actual volume or my perception of the volume lol. I was really hoping for a more intimate vibe for conversation. The speakeasy lounge actually looked more like the vibe that I desired but I settled in and placed my order. I wanted some of the showier selections seen on IG, so I ordered the tuna tower and flaming Romeo & Juliet roll and a cute (albeit sweet) cocktail that came in a goldfish shaped glass. When the tuna tower arrived the young server asked me something several times which I couldn't hear over the music, so I just nodded. After she smashed the tuna tower, I figured out she was asking if I wanted it mixed. Lol my bad! I actually did not want it mixed but it was delicious anyway. The Romeo and Juliet roll took forever to stop flaming but once it died down, it was absolutely delicious. My partner enjoyed his roll as well and they gave him a complimentary birthday desert with sparklers. Overall I give service a 3. I would have liked a more professional presentation of the menu, hyping it up a bit. And a less soft spoken server. The food was a solid 5, everything was fresh and scrumptious. Overall I give Uni'ko 4 stars and I look forward to returning. I thought it was a good value given the extra razzle dazzle and food quality.

Hubby got the Pork Katsu and I ordered the Chicken Katsu. Both were served with miso soup ( excellent) as well as all the relish and sauces you expect. Beautifully displayed on classy wooden trays. The decor was classic Japanese; happy cats, sake casks, and Japanese lanterns. Plenty of parking Japanese beer on tap, I think 3 varieties. Nice and clean! You can see the kitchen and enjoy all the tantalizing scents of deliciousness. We'll be back!

I ordered with the Japanese curry since the katsu sauce is too sweet for me. The ramen was supposed to be spicy but it definitely could use more heat. It was great otherwise. The cucumber salad was pretty simple but the dressing was pretty good. It is a sweet sesame taste. I also had the Gyudon, which is the beef bowl. It has decent ratio of meat to rice so I'll definitely be getting that again.

Awful customer service. I ordered through Grubhub, and while the delivery driver was great, several…read moreitems were missing from my order. When I called the restaurant to let them know, they told me there was nothing they could do because Grubhub should have checked the order. They also said it was my responsibility to come pick up the missing items. I was on a work trip, staying at a hotel without a car, so that wasn't even an option for me. Instead of offering a solution, they completely dismissed the issue. If you're thinking about ordering from here, I'd strongly recommend choosing another place. This experience was extremely disappointing.

*** Ordered from Uber Eats ***…read more The food was very flavorful! The Bulgogi tasted very authentic and not too salty. It also comes with a side of Kimchi. I love the slight sweetness of the dish. The chicken fried rice was delicious as well, the chicken wasn't too dry either. The Kimbop was a little different than what I'm used to eating though. There was lettuce in it, which I usually don't see, but it was good nonetheless. I would definitely order from here again and possibly try other dishes now that I know the flavor is authentic. Pro tip: Uber Eats usually has deals for this restaurant so you can get it for a better deal.

The service has always been great and the atmosphere is very welcoming, which is why my family and I kept coming back. However, I recently came back yesterday and was honestly really heartbroken to find out that my favorite items are no longer being served. The pozole ramen and the chicharrón ramen are gone, and to top it off, the pork bellies are gone too. Those dishes were the main reason we would come here in the first place. I had actually been looking forward to them because I was having a really rough day, so finding out they were all gone was really disappointing. No offense to the restaurant, but without those items on the menu anymore, there's really no reason for us to return. It's a shame because those dishes were what made this place special for us.

On top of the food, the atmosphere was fun and energetic, and the service was friendly and attentive. This spot hits on flavor, quality, and vibe.
