Ranzan Sushi in Redwood City is a must-visit restaurant for anyone who loves Japanese cuisine. Tucked away in a strip plaza, this intimate kaiseki fine-dining experience showcases the best seasonal ingredients from Japan. If you’re looking for a hidden gem in the peninsula and cannt get a reservation at Wakuriya in san mateo , Ranzan Sushi is it.

We came to Ranzan for my moms birthday dinner and it was an extraordinary experience. The ambiance was very nice and elegant. The table wares were very traditional, and the food was just phenomenal! We had the Takao Set and it was very satisfying. Each dish was extremely well flavored and simply delicious. The chef was very good at incorporating various ingredients and the plating was just super legit! Service was excellent as well our servers were so kind and attentive to details. If you are looking for traditional Japanese fine dining experience definitely come to Ranzan. Thank you Ranzan for this wonderful experience. We will be back next time!

1/22/23: Updated review. Upscale yet cozy spot to try a Japanese kaiseki-style meal. We had ordered from them earlier on in the pandemic when they were not open for dining in and enjoyed their food, so we came back to try a meal two years later in the restaurant. It was a great experience! The service was impeccable, and the food was well-presented and tasty, with unique dishes such as black sesame tofu (note that their menu changes every month). One of my favorite courses: the wagyu. It was so tender that it felt like it melted in my mouth. We were super stuffed by the end of the meal, even though we picked the smallest course meal. If you like Japanese food or want to have a unique dining experience, I’d highly recommend this restaurant!

An amazing introduction to Kaiseki dinners in the Bay Area. Couldn’t have asked for a better birthday celebration. 🙂

From the unassuming front to the subdued dining room, Ranzan hit all the marks of an outstanding kaiseki experience. You have four options to choose from and also different sake pairings to go with your meal. I particularly like that they printed the selection you chose when reserving so that I can follow along with what is being presented. The same went with each of the sake pairings. They had the name and description printed and served along with the drink. It made it so much easier for me to remember which of the dishes and drinks I preferred. I opted for the Takao tonight but asked if I could add on the Kobe a la carte. I’m glad that they were able to accommodate my request even though it was last minute (Thanks, Aika). But IMO the wagyu sirloin steak was more flavorful (first-world problems I know). TLDR: my favorites tonight – turban shell with liver paste, simmered scallop with egg yolk, sakura sorbet, Wagyu sirloin, grilled yaki saba sushi, simmered abalone, deep-fried herring roe abs maitake mushroom, “hagama” rice, and, surprisingly, the shaved ice with strawberry (it was refreshing and had the right amount of sweetness). The sake pairings were good but nothing stood out to me, except the warm Tatsuriki and Shichida (Thanks, Miho). They have a limited selection of wines, so I would definitely recommend BYOB.

We came here to celebrate my husband’s birthday. The restaurant is not big but very well managed. The staff are super friendly and service is top notch. Food is amazing and artistically decorated. I’ve lived in JP before and this place def reminded me of old days there.

Basic food and a bit overpriced for what you get. Great service and presentation, but the food was meh. They charged $8 per bottle for distilled water which is ridiculous. Not even Michelin star restaurants or fast food joints charge for water. Left a bad taste in my mouth when I got the bill for it.

What a treat! My dear friend and ultra foodie took me here for the 13(!!!) course Takao. Every course was absolutely stunning and a delight to the senses. Highly, highly recommend coming here for a special occasion or just because! The artistry is incredible and the entire experience is beautiful. Thank you so, so much Hitoshi-san Mihoko!!! We will be back.
