Thank you, Ren Omakase, for creating such a remarkable and unforgettable dining experience!
We came here for dinner and had a very enjoyable time! It was a very intimate setting, but still felt casual and comfortable. The seats are spaced out well, unlike other omakase bars where you’re sitting very close to the next person. Chen Wen is also very thoughtful and you can see his passion is to make delicious food for his guests. He was constantly asking for feedback on tastes, textures, and flavors. At the end of our dinner he was also telling us about something that he’s trying to make and can’t quite figure out, but still thinking of different ways. The food was amazing from the hot/cooked dishes to the nigiri. The flavors all mixed so well together and nothing overpowered anything in any dish. The nigiri is more traditional so you can taste each flavor of the fish. Don’t even g
Absolutely amazing experience! Enjoyed every bite from the beginning to the end. If you are Uni lovers you must try this restaurant. The chef is so so so …. generously pile the Uni on one piece. I almost couldn’t put it into my mouth. Abalone is another outstanding dish. High quality fish. Perfect cooking skills. Great presentation. Beautiful ambience. Excellent service. What a pleasant and enjoyable meal! So glad that Bay Area has Japanese fine dining that cost much less than San Francisco now.
We first met Chef Wen San at Drunken Monk and were enchanted by his artistry, so when we learned he had brought his craft to Ren, we knew we had to follow. What awaited us was nothing short of magical. Each course of the omakase unfolded like a story — delicate, intricate, and full of surprise. The small dishes were jewels of flavor, and the sushi was simply divine, every piece reflecting Chef Wen San’s deep passion and extraordinary skill. And then there is Chloe — the heart of the dining room. Her warmth and grace made us feel not only welcomed but truly cared for, as if we were guests in her home. The harmony between Wen San’s creations and Chloe’s hospitality transforms Ren into something beyond a restaurant — it is an experience, a celebration of connection, flavor, and artistry. Wh
Good not great. Nice service as with most of Sunny’s spots but food had a lot of temperature control issues and shari was almost tasteless (but decent texture). Fish were also like, on paper good/well known products, but either weren’t processed in a manner that got the most of them or were not the greatest version of those fish. Most pieces were eh but even the good ones started good but faded hard and leaned more on the neta and shoyu w the shari almost hindering some pieces I think it’s really good for the people that like truffle/caviar/wagyu (no Wagyu but wouldn’t really be surprised if it shows up in the future) with their sushi.
