Loved the food and the education. Learned about how they differentiate yellow tail based on size and maturity. Hamachi vs Buri. Favorite nigiri was the Spanish mackerel smoked over hay. Rich and smokey. Highly recommend this spot.

I finally visited Rasa last night with my girlfriend after hearing so many great recommendations, and it did not disappoint! We opted for the $80 tasting menu, and it was absolutely worth it. This place is proof that amazing food doesn’t need to rely on overcomplicated recipes or fancy ingredients. Every dish was thoughtfully paired, and the simple yet skillful preparations delivered incredible flavors. I’m already looking forward to going back to explore more of their menu. Highly recommend!
