JU-NI SUSHI

SAN FRANCISCO, CA

This Michelin star rated omakase style restaurant in San Francisco's NOPA district offers chef's choice sushi in a modern and intimate setting.  The twelve seat sushi bar was designed to create a unique experience for each dining guest. The sushi bar is laid out to give each chef, serving only 4-6 customers, their own customized setting to efficiently create each individual piece of sushi while providing an intimate visual performance for the customers. 

​

The design concept was inspired by the rhythm of Japanese tatami mats, piecing together rectangles with the proportions of 2:1.  The individual place settings, custom millwork shelving, and wooden soffit above, all follow this geometric harmony.  The selected finishes provide a contrast of cool modern materials and warm linear wood.

"Unlike most other San Francisco omakase restaurants, many which have cocoon-like interiors, Ju-ni is open but exudes an aura of serenity. As with the best sushi experiences, the diner’s senses are honed and the subtle details — both in the fish and the interior — are revealed in stages. A wood box holds chopsticks. A dropped ceiling over the sushi counter lends a cozy intimacy. A rectangle of polished wood, wiped down between bites, becomes the platform for the bites placed before diners."
