My short answer: it’s a must stop, even if I can only have one city stop (SF) before Harbor House :two_hearts: Star worthy :star:

I’ll give you my food report after getting my Korean snacks at the grocery store :face_with_hand_over_mouth: I had a little adventure from LA to SF during rush hours that Friday, driving off road on a petroleum field… Junsoo shared his private garage parking spot to help me catch the last seating. It was too kind of him in the middle of service hours :face_holding_back_tears: Low-key saying… if anyone wanna eat SSAL, I’ll drive you to SF lol

Chef Simon from Marden’s Chicken Rice and chef Junsoo used to work together. Simon told me about that. What a small and cool world :hand_with_index_finger_and_thumb_crossed:

I visited 2 days before matsutake hit SSAL tho. I need to come back soon!

Thanks. We enjoyed Addison. Ended up bringing a full bottle of Cedric Bouchard champagne and then ordering a half bottle of Bordeaux off the list. We also ordered a cocktail during our 5-minute wait to get seated and thought it was far too mild…perhaps it was meant to go with the food. Both of us taking the wagyu supplement (felt like a HUGE piece) was a mistake…too much food for us. Should have kept one squab as part of the regular menu. The execution of the dishes was pretty flawless. That fish dish with the crispy scales was memorable for me.

I think the dining room could use a bit of a makeover and the music is of the elevator variety, but that’s the only aspect I could flaw. Then again, I like a bit of energy in the dining room, which is often not the case in these types of restaurants.
