A distinctly contemporary scene of exposed ductwork and sleek concrete walls sets the stage for one Fremont's more exceptional dining options. Well-dressed young professionals and hip college kids who frequent Chiso heap high praise on owner-chef Tai Chi Kitamura's skilled renditions of sushi – yellowtail, scallop, octopus, and eel in particular. Thrown in for good measure are a number of vegetarian dishes and a selection of sakes. Reservations not accepted on Friday or Saturday evenings.
