Sushi rice with raw beef and ikura
Raw beef, salmon roe, and toasted nori turn the sushi rice into a build-your-own handroll dish. It featured in MacKenzie Chung Fegan's 2025 Chronicle review.

AStrong picks
Shio koji hanger steak
Chung Fegan strongly recommended the hanger steak in 2025. Served with démi vinaigrette and shoestring potato; choose it when the table wants a beef main.
Medium rare Basque cheesecake
The Chronicle praised the custardy cheesecake in its 2025 review. Pick it when you'd rather finish with cheesecake than a larger shaved-ice dessert.
BConsider if
Tiramisu kakigori
The Chronicle singled out Ernest's seasonal kakigori in April 2026. The dessert menu has a tiramisu version. Toppings change, so the earlier praise applies to the kakigori rather than this exact preparation.
Consider if Your table wants a shaved-ice dessert instead of cheesecake.
