KEN occupies a counter-seating room on Divisadero Street in San Francisco's Lower Haight neighborhood. The restaurant holds a Michelin star and specializes in Edomae sushi, the traditional Tokyo style of preparation.
Seating is limited to the counter, which puts diners close to the preparation of each course. The restaurant is closed Monday and Tuesday, and open for dinner service the remaining five nights: Wednesday through Saturday from 5:30pm to 9pm, and Sunday from 5:30pm to 8pm.
KEN falls into the luxury price tier, consistent with its Michelin recognition and omakase format. Reservations are handled exclusively through Resy, and given the counter-only seating and star rating, booking ahead is advisable rather than walking in.
