Recently, we had the pleasure of
dining at Chotto Matte. This new San Francisco restaurant opened on the top of
the previous Macys Men’s Store at Union Square. It offers great views from its
rooftop terrace and an extensive selection of unique and delicious Japanese
Peruvian dishes.
Chotto Matte translates “to wait a moment” or “hold on a second”. The concept is deeply integrated in Japanese culture where patience and thoughtfulness are highly valued virtues.
We took our time at this elegant restaurant with views of the “city by the bay” on the top of Macys on a sensational crystal-clear day.
You know it is going to be a special experience when you check into the black marble entrance before taking an elevator to the rooftop terrace.
Service is very attentive with an extensive selection of cocktails and wine. We enjoyed a variety of appetizers including calamari, sushi, and Perfect Manhattans made with Angels Envy. We also enjoyed chicken and salmon donburi bowls graced with deep fried finely ground red sweet potatoes garnished on top that made for an impressive presentation. For dessert, we shared a freshly made apple cobbler that was a heavenly ending to a fantastic dining experience.
This restaurant is the 5th in their collection with others in London, Toronto, Saudi Arabia, Miami and more planned.
It is a great addition to San Francisco’s famous Union Square. We would highly recommend it.
