This is the best sushi/omakase in the Bay Area. I live in LA (and have tried most every sushi restaurant in the Bay and LA) but whenever I fly into Oakland, I always make reservations here. Chikara is a master. You will not be disappointed. The sake pairing is excellent!

This place is a must go. One thing I look for in places like this is simple but unique flavors. The chefs here absolutely knocked it out of the park with every dish. The flavor combinations were incredible, the textures were spot on, and the plating was beautiful. The staff was really kind and helpful and the overall atmosphere was really laid back. Can't wait to come back.

Just had dinner at Delage. It was such a delicious meal with wonderful service and very knowledgeable chefs preparing the sushi right in front of us. All of the flavor combinations were creative and well-balanced, and the food was presented very well with the artistic bowls and plates. Would definitely recommend this place for a fancy night out!

Every thing was so delicious. I love how creative the chef was to put together beautiful dishes with fresh ingredients. I love all the different flavors combinations, read the description on the menu. Not overpowering but go so well with all the ingredients. I love miso cream sauce with the black cod. I love the dessert at the end. Just perfect way to finish off the meal, not too sweet.

What a complete gem! I took my son here for his 17th birthday, and we both were baffled that it didn’t have Michelin stars yet! It has been recognized by Michelin Guide which is absolutely deserved. The female sushi chef was so artistic and graceful in her presentation! She is a master at the sushi bar! We felt we were looking in a window of her heart and soul and allowed to experience her passion for the art of sushi and fine dining. The setting was so peaceful. Each course was thoughtfully prepared to combine just the right flavors and to create a work of art on the plate. The precious waitress was so professional and prompt! We didn’t feel rushed, nor did we feel the timing drag. She was careful in taking care of each person dining to make it the best experience. Everything about this place is so well choreographed that our evening moved along seamlessly and left us eager to come back!! I appreciated the mix of both raw fish sushi, and cooked fish, along with salads and soups; all that brought traditional Japanese fare right to our plates with color and creativity in the presentations. The dessert was the final wow factor. Its purpose might have been simply to seal the flavors of the meal with a lightly sweet and healthy finish, but it was phenomenal. Fresh fruit and a beautiful pomegranate butterfly, with a healthy fermented rice yogurt that is full of nutrients. There is care here from beginning to end both in service and fare. I’m expecting to see a Michelin star!
