My wife and I celebrated our anniversary here, and we loved every minute of it. The ambiance, food preparation, and service were top notch. Yuko took care of me with the booking, and it was great seeing her last night in person as well! Highly, highl

I've been to all the high-end sushi spots in the Bay Area, and Katsu is doing one thing no one else is doing - surprising cuts of nigiri you're not going to find anywhere else (eel eggs, sea snail, etc.). Now, there's a reason most pla

I have been to all the high end sushi places in the Bay including Yoshizumi and Shin, and have dined at multiple Tabelog gold and silver aware winners in Japan. Katsu is easily the best high end sushi experience in the Bay Area. It's the perfect
This is a truly 5 plus star restaurant.
The setting is unique as it is intimate, eight person seating. The service was top not but not ostentatious. The chefs' passion was certainly felt and delivered into every single one of the 20 plus courses. The servings were unique and flavorful

Katsu was such a great place for whenever you want to treat yourself to an omakase experience. Chefs were knowledgeable and service was top notch. I loved how unique each of the dishes and nigiris were and you can tell how much thought was put into c

It was a quite unforgettable experience and the money was well spent here. 20-course food and a lot of materials are airplane (JAL) shipped daily from Japan, so they are original and fresh. Service was friendly and impeccable. Love the ambiance- qui
Amazing omakase.
This is my favorite omakase place in the Bay Area. Counter only seats 8 and chef is friendly and service welcoming. This is my second d time dining here and I love that they always have a seasonal add on -- first time I added the yura uni from Awaji

I truly believe this is one of the best omakase experiences
I truly believe this is one of the best omakase experiences in the Bay Area. It stands with the best from SF / San Mateo / Redwood City and I think it stands on top. While Katsu's nigiri is excellent, the tasting also adds a number of wonderful dish
AMAZING!!!! I missed out on my original reservation.

High quality sushi with special fishes! Although the price is high but quality is good. They did put some wasabi into every piece of nigiri, but it's freshly made wasabi so I love it. Amount of wasabi is adjustable so just let the chief know. They
A delightful experience.
We wanted to book a future date that wasn't on their Tock yet, and Yuko was very accommodating through emails to help us reserve the time we wanted early. Parking was not too hard to find since the reservation was at 5 pm - we parked on the street o
Had an early Valentines Day dinner here.
Every one of the dishes was immaculately seasoned and of the highest quality. Really subtle, delicate flavors - nothing in your face or overpowering. Multiple dishes with uni (sea urchin), so fresh, smooth, awesome. All the fish exceptionally fres

It has been a long time since I've been wowed at a restaurant... but Katsu was AMAZING! Each bite was tasty, fresh, creative. Service was attentive -- not obtrusive. Sake tasted crisp. I loved it so much and hope to eat there again soon!
I must say, the service here is definitely unrivaled by all.
My green tea was continuously topped off and the associates there just kept an eye on pretty much the entire experience. The chef introduced each item to us and how it came about to be made, and every piece was as delicious as the next. I am a sucke
Came here during September to celebrate a friend's birthday.
The highlight was definitely the yura uni tray (special add on order) from Awaji island. It was so sweet and delicate. The most unique tasting unit I've ever had. Katsu definitely did not disappoint. Everything we had was fresh and delicious. The men

Connect with users posting reservations for Katsu Mountain View
AppointmentTrader is a community-driven platform where users can exchange their reservations or leverage their personal relationships with Katsu Mountain View. Buyers can make informed decisions using automated seller ratings, which reflect past transactions and reliability.
Each posting on AppointmentTrader shows you which user submitted it and along with that provides a trackrecord of that user which indicates how much experience
the user has and how many percent of their transactions resulted in them issuing a refund.
If there is no user posting that fits your schedule, you can bid on your preferred time.
Let's say Peter has a great morning and decides to take his three friends to Katsu Mountain View at 6 PM the same day.
He checks the restaurant's website and sees that no reservations are available. He then looks at the Katsu Mountain View page on AppointmentTrader, but finds that there are no user postings either.
That's where the community-driven bid process comes in.
Peter can place a bid on AppointmentTrader, which serves as a reward for any community member who chooses to work on securing the reservation. AT then notifies experienced users who may be able to help.
Step-by-Step Process
1.) Setting a Reward (Bid)
* AppointmentTrader uses historical data to recommend a reasonable reward amount for securing a reservation - let's say $100.
* Peter really wants to go, so he increases the bid (or reward) to $200.
* At this stage, the reservation does not exist yet.
2.) A Community User Picks Up the Bid
* PerceptiveWash44, an experienced AT user, has a strong track record of successfully securing reservations and low refund requests, they receive a notification about Peter's $200 bid.
* PerceptiveWash44 picks up the bid, meaning they will now work on securing the reservation.
* Peter can now talk to PerceptiveWash44 for any questions Peter may have as PerceptiveWash44 user fills the bid.
3.) Finding the Reservation
* PerceptiveWash44 now uses their connections at Katsu Mountain View to secure the table.
* If they successfully get the 6 PM table for four, Peter receives a confirmation that the reservation has been secured.
* If PerceptiveWash44 fails to secure the reservation, the bid is returned to the pool so another user can try.
4.) Payment & Protection
* Once the reservation is secured, PerceptiveWash44 receives the $200 reward which is credited to PerceptiveWash44's AT balance, where users manage their own funds and can withdraw via available payout options such as bank transfer, PayPal, or Zelle.
* Peter can now enjoy the dinner with his friends at Katsu Mountain View!
* As with all transactions on AT, disputes and no-show fees are handled through the platform's community-driven resolution system. Users with a strong track record are incentivized to fulfill bids successfully, and community members can report issues to maintain trust in the marketplace.
