Sushi Shin Redwood City

Truly exceptional and worthy of the hype. Sushi artistry. You won’t be sorry.

The sushi chefs are skilled and passionate, and they take pride in sharing their expertise with diners. The intimate setting allows for a personal and interactive dining experience, adding to the overall enjoyment of the meal.

The food is of high quality and deserves 1 star michelin. It is a bit pricy considering the OK service and somewhat mediocre decor.They are planning on remodeling late this year.

A cozy, curated experience that is sure to leave your stomach full but your mind/heart wanting more. I came here for my husband's birthday. We had never been to a Michelin star restaurant so this was a luxury/novelty experience for us. I've been to several omakase restaurants before, but this one stands out above all the rest. The chef is friendly, knowledgeable, skilled, yet humble. The restaurant is small, simple, and to the point. No fancy decorations or distractions, which allowed me to focus on the chef and his food. It was like watching an artist at work his craft was remarkable. There was a great variety of appetizers, fish, and dessert which were unlike foods I've eaten before. Everything was clearly high quality. I highly recommend this place to everyone!

3 stars due to lackluster service. We were 10 min late to our reservations since our babysitter didn't arrive at our house on time and we tried calling to inform the restaurant but to no avail. The good news is my friends arrived on time and told the chef when they arrived. The chef, Jason, just seemed annoyed, despite apologizing, but I mean, we tried to get there on time, but we're reliant on sitters, so try to have some empathy. Jason just came off as unfriendly and arrogant during our dinner. When the server asked if we would like to order any supplements towards the end of the meal, Jason scolded him for asking us since he couldn't give us any supplements because we were a tad late despite catching up with everyone. He wanted to get us out for the next group. Mind you, the group next to us finished their meal at the same time, and they were able to order the extra supplements. Mannerisms were off and you wouldn't experience this from a Japanese sushi chef. The food was solid, but I won't return as a regular after this experience. Maybe it was an off night for him, but for the price, this wasn't the service I would expect from a Michelin-star restaurant.
