On a remote stretch of Mission Street – far from the Valencia Street action – is this buzzing place serving a new and California-ised style of sushi, chef-owner Tim Archuleta's creative spin on nigiri. He takes exquisite (and sustainably sourced) seafood and adorns it with bright touches such as yuzu-ponzu gel, pickled kelp, or yuzu kosho. Omakase (chef's choice) is the way to go. The vibe is casual and energetic, with quality sake flowing, and regulars chowing down on fantastic yuzu chicken wings and oysters as well. Look for an expansion into a second space nearby later this year.
