One again, our experience at Pabu was amazing! We were greeted warmly from the start, and manager Gabriel walked us to our favorite table where he proceeded to treat us to flutes of champagne to celebrate our 25-year wedding anniversary. From there, the night got better and better with every bite and every sip. Our martinis were spot on, our server Will was fantastic, and manager Stanley took the time to come by to congratulate us. We finished the evening with two glasses of dessert wine, again compliments of Gabriel. Pabu is by far our favorite restaurant in San Francisco!

Very good and fresh fish. The grilled skewers are fantastic. Other cooked items and noodles have good authentic Japanese taste, which is hard to find around the Bay. Excellent service.
