    You know your up-and-coming neighborhood is going to start filling up with white people when the first fancy coffee shop moves in. This is the first fancy coffee shop in West Oakland.

    Very nice little bar in that downtown 'long-but-narrow' style. Dark. Bourbon. (02 Nov 2011)

    One of those great Oakland bars that are in an old downtown Oakland building. Very long and narrow, dark and beautiful, with craft cocktails and good music. (09 Apr 2014)

    Surprisingly good sushi for the low price. Very small, always a wait.

    Only place to buy a Fujiyama blade this side of the mason-dixon line. Or Hiroshima. An absolute must for every chef or gardener. 5/5.
