How to book Ssal

  1. Book directly on OpenTable

    Ssal takes reservations on OpenTable. Start there: pick your party size and date, and book any time that works. OpenTable lists it as Fine Dining, dress code: smart casual.

  2. Be flexible on the night and time

    Prime-time weekend tables at Ssal go first. Weeknights, early seatings and late seatings are the easiest to find.

  3. Watch for cancellations

    When Ssal shows nothing open, plans still change. Tables come back when other diners cancel, often a day or two ahead, and they go fast.

  4. Let TableWatch watch for you

    Set the nights, time window and party size in the TableWatch app. We check OpenTable around the clock and push you the moment a matching table opens. You book it on OpenTable in your own account.

About Ssal

Ssal is a modern Californian restaurant with Korean roots. We serve a single tasting menu nightly in our dining room with access to our open kitchen. Our menu changes constantly and spontaneously. We simply serve food that excites us. In our dining room, Chef Junsoo combines his Korean upbringing and sensibilities with his experience cooking in the French and American traditions. We integrate Korean aesthetics, flavors, and techniques into modern cuisine. We are open for dinner Wednesday through Sunday by reservation only. We do not accommodate walk-in dining. The price of our tasting menu starts at $270 per person and does not include beverages, service, and sales tax. We require a $150 deposit per person to secure the reservation. The deposit will be applied to your final bill. The deposit is non-refundable.
