   I showed up on time but the place was closed for medical emergency without any text or email notification, and no apology is offered the following days either.

   My wife took me to this restaurant for my belated birthday dinner and it was a unique experience. It does not serve standard sushi roll variety but rather is an authentic Kyoto-style Kaiseki. We decided to order the Takao in part to taste as many dishes and in part because prices are set to increase next month. The simmered sardine, sashimi dish, and especially the deep-fried icefish with Mitsuba stood out for me. I have a shellfish allergy so they switched out an Ebi dish for Salmon Roe but forgot to do that for abalone so I skipped it. We also ordered the Hakkaisan Sparkling Nigor, Niigata was is cloudy, sweet sake. The servers were professional and friendly. It's a different experience that's worth a try.

   Ranzan is a fabulous restaurant. Modest, almost austere interior, ample space between the few tables. Many courses -- the meal lasted 3-½ hours. Beautiful plates. Nice presentation. Two waitresses, wonderfully attentive and japanese-style polite. Only two, because we were only, I think, 13 diners seated at 5 tables. And expensive. Two notes for possible improvement: 1 -- it was often hard to understand the waitresses, and we felt impolite asking her to repeat; and 2 -- the offered chopsticks were the cheapest possible kind, diner style throw-aways. A bit too economy-style for a Michelin star restaurant. Notwithstanding -- a wonderful experience. I hope that with so few diners, the restaurant survives, because it is a true enrichment of the Peninsula dining scene. Thank you for a beautiful, interesting, and tasty evening.

    This is a place with really good Japanese kaiseki ryori, however this is an "expensive" meal and the ambiance of the restaurant doesn't match the cost of the meal. The ambiance is mediocre compared to the food which is beautiful, artistic and exquisite. It's a great experience but the service and the atmosphere of the restaurant doesn't match up to the experience and cost of the food.

    An excellent restaurant to go to for a special occasion. We loved the multi-course kaiseki tasting menu where each item is themed on a different ingredient and a different cooking style. The serving sizes were just right. This was our first time eating indoors in over a year. The staff took our temperature and seated us in our own private dining room that normally held six but only had the two of us. The main dining hall similarly had the diners widely spaced out. The staff was masked and gloved at all times. This was our first time here. We picked the restaurant based on a whim and the excellent reviews. We will certainly be coming back.

    Authentic Kyoto kaiseki food, good sake list and service from our waitress is wonderful ! My BF mentioned that he never encountered a waitress that has so much joy just to serve the customers. Food is good, too. The taste is like the ones I had in Japan, the only problem is the ingredients had to fly in from Japan, thus the higher price. I would say if you go to Kansei area in Japan and pay the same price, you would get a lot more foods for the value. Overall, excellent Japanese kaiseki choice in Bay Area. Highly recommend!

    During the COVID period, we had dinner, so the capacity was limited at 25%, which provides a better experience. Food tasted well and was also creative. The service was at the Japanese level great. We felt that it was both an excellent dinner and mind refreshing.

    Ranzan truly provides a unique Japanese kaiseki experience. First of all, yes it is pricey. And nothing from the interior decor screams ultra expensive. However everything is "proper". Service was with heart and Japanese hospitality as every employee seemed to be from the country. Food was great but I wouldn't necessarily say mindblowing. It certainly is creative and very clinical. Precision blend of various ingredients make a unique palate. But as Japanese cuisine purposefully does not mix the ingredients, they tend to complement rather than enhance or create a new discovery. The slight lack in top notch taste is made up with a beautiful presentation and number of courses. We had the Kibune which was the second most expensive one but by the end, we were both full and a bit exhausted. As we went through at least 10+ exquisite concoctions, it is tough to put a single review that describes all the taste but again, this restaurant is a collection of good hits rather than a single grand slam. Great for dates, anniversaries, or potential high end business meals. Extremely quiet so be prepared to talk softly.

    Ranzan was a fantastic Kaiseki dining experience. They used very fresh ingredients (some local some imported) to offer 14 courses of both familiar and less than familiar dishes. We really enjoyed each course and the service staff was eager to please. It was a very personal dining experience and something I think everyone must do at least once in their lives if not once a season! The only area this restaurant has room to improve is regarding interior decor. It’s very minimalistic with not regard for comfort or ambiance.

    My wife and I celebrated our 20th wedding anniversary dinner at Ranzan. We live in Redwood City and didn’t know the restaurant was even in our city. I read the reviews and decided to try it out. The food was fantastic and so was the service. Ranzan offers kaiseki, traditional multi-course Japanese dinners. They also have an extensive saki menu. You select a fixed price menu item when you make your reservation. We selected the Takao option which included 16 courses. Kaiseki dining is food as art. Each course is beautifully presented. You’ll definitely appreciate the fresh ingredients and all the work it takes to put the dishes together. It’s all about the food and dining experience. It is a great place to celebrate a special occasion with family and friends. It is also a place I would take business associates.

    We went to Ranzan for our anniversary dinner recently and splurged on the private room. Everything from the time we walked through the door was top notch. Excellent service, incredible food and a truly unique experience for us who had never had the pleasure of a Kaiseke style meal. I would highly recommend it to anyone who loves Japanese food and wants to enjoy it at a truly elevated level.
