How Do Priority Reservations Improve Your Visit?
Priority reservations cut the friction out of planning: members get dedicated booking windows and reserved allocation in our reservation system, which reduces wait times and helps secure preferred seating. For holidays, special neighborhood events in Pasadena, or larger groups, priority booking makes celebrations simpler and more predictable. The result is a smoother experience where timing and table placement support the occasion, not complicate it.
Think of priority booking as a planning tool — it pairs naturally with access perks for limited-run menus and chef-led seatings. If you often book for milestones or busy nights, this benefit becomes especially valuable.
What Access Do Members Have to Omakase and A5 Wagyu?
Members receive advance notice and booking priority for omakase seatings and limited A5 Wagyu releases. We open member-only windows and notify priority lists for rare menu items so you can reserve seats at the chef’s counter or pre-order select wagyu cuts before they’re available to the public. Together, notifications and reservation priority create a reliable path to the menu’s most exclusive experiences.
This member-first model connects guests directly with the kitchen’s limited-run offerings and prepares the way for enrollment and tier details that follow.

Are There Eligibility Criteria or Membership Tiers?
Membership is open to qualifying guests per program policy and features three tiers — Silver, Gold, and Platinum — that scale benefits like booking priority and event invites. Tier progression is based on activity such as visits and spend rather than fixed public thresholds; consult the program terms for exact rules. The idea is to keep membership accessible while rewarding frequent engagement with richer perks at higher tiers.
This overview introduces tiers and leads into a comparison of how each level affects access to our signature menu and events.
This table shows how each tier translates into concrete advantages so you can decide which level fits your dining habits.
What Do Silver, Gold, and Platinum Members Receive?
Each tier increases access and value. Silver members enjoy introductory priority and member promotions; Gold members receive longer advance booking and more substantial credits toward A5 Wagyu and caviar; Platinum members receive the highest priority, first notice on limited releases, and invites to private tastings. The structure rewards continued patronage while keeping aspirational perks within reach for our most engaged guests.
Next, we’ll share practical tips to accelerate tier progression and maximize rewards.
How Do You Progress Through the Loyalty Tiers?
Progression is driven by engagement: regular reservations, attending member events, and ordering premium menu items all contribute to status. To advance faster, book consistently for celebrations, attend member events that sometimes award bonus credits, and choose signature items like omakase or premium cuts when available. While exact thresholds are in the official terms, active participation and strategic ordering reliably move you up the tiers.
These practical steps let members plan visits that both satisfy culinary interests and accelerate membership benefits.
How Do Membership Tiers Affect Your Rewards?
Tiers organize benefits into clear levels of access and value, turning repeat visits into prioritized culinary opportunities. Silver, Gold, and Platinum offer progressively greater reservation priority, larger credits toward premium items, and invitations to member-only caviar and omakase events. The tiered design helps members balance visit frequency with the quality of perks they want to unlock. Below is a quick comparison to help you choose the right tier for your dining style.
Representative benefits by tier include:
- Silver: Basic priority and introductory credits for premium dishes.
- Gold: Extended booking windows and larger credits toward A5 Wagyu and caviar.
- Platinum: Top-priority access, exclusive event invites, and first notice on limited-release items.
These examples highlight increasing access and exclusivity as you move up tiers. The table below summarizes benefit trade-offs for quick comparison.
This breakdown helps you select membership strategies that match how often you dine and your interest in our premium offerings.

How Do Discounts for Caviar and A5 Wagyu Work?
Discounts and credits for premium items like caviar and A5 Wagyu are applied through your member account, either as automatic credits at checkout or by redeeming points in the member portal. Some credits may be limited-time offers tied to events or promotions, and high-demand releases may use reservation-only windows alongside discount mechanics. Check program communications for any blackout dates or exclusions. These redemption options lower the effective cost of rare ingredients while preserving access to chef-curated preparations.
Knowing how credits apply helps you plan visits and order premium items to maximize membership value.
