While my parents were visiting, a friend recommended I take them to The Park for brunch one Saturday morning. While I was perfectly satisfied with my pesto pizza, I was somewhat disappointed since I was hoping for a great breakfast. There were not nearly as many breakfast options as I was hoping for which lead to my pizza-decision, yet my parents seemed content with their choices (an interesting breakfast pizza and an egg-white omelet). Either way, we all enjoyed our meals and the restaurant itself is really beautiful. There is a ton of seating both inside and out; the terrace would be a great place for a romantic dinner. After reading some other reviews, I'm beginning to realize this place has a problem with time. We arrived at 9:50 and were told that we could sit in the waiting area until they opened at 10, which was perfectly fine since we were just happy to be in air-conditioning. Yet, it was frustrating that when a couple walked in three minutes later, they were seated immediately while we sat in the waiting area and watched. While this certainly didn't ruin the experience, I found it to be quite odd.

Pod has a Jetsons-like feel to it, from the conveyor-belt sushi bar to the curtained area on the "bridge". The semi-private dining areas (pods) have controls that let you change the colors inside to a whim. Seating is ample for a medium-sized group. It was difficult to tune out the noise - in that way, Pod reminds me of a futuristic cafeteria. Service - Lan, Erin, Laurie) is MUCH better than your typical cafeteria luckily. The food generally looked better than it tasted. Presentation is top-notch and the sushi was fresh. Portions are big enough you can share with one or two others. While I'll overlook the high cost of food[1], I can't ignore quality. The sushi appetizer was a promising start to dinner but the Chilean sea bass I had was buttery as all hell. Imagine eating a stick of butter marinated in butter lathered in fat. (Sound redundant? The sea bass was redundant.) The Mongolian beef lacked any kick. The saving grace of the meal was the calamari! Tender and spicy, it was a treat after eating the other two dishes. Not worth the trip if you're looking for stellar food. Perhaps my expectations were too high but the food left an unsavory imprint on me. Upon reflection I'm just unhappy. Stop by for a drink or try their wasabi-crusted filet mignon (which I had another time, and wasn't half-bad). [1] Except for the sushi... don't ask.

I had a Kick ass time here...Well now that I think about it everytime that I have been there has been Kick Ass. First after the Best of the Bay Party with a very hott friend (nice booths to make out in with a cocktail). The second a friend from LA was in town for the Love Parade (whatever the hell it was called, cocktails in the morning to me!) I was actually able to dance and have a conversation in one venue. Not an easy task. And finally This Sunday for my friend JoJo's B'day celebration. They took such good care of me and my friends I had to give a "you guys kick ass" shout out. Coming from some one who works in the service industry and a Avid fan of our fair city. This is a place that represents both well. Thanks for the good work.
