Meet the AB Wagyu Pizza.
A crowd favorite that redefines what pizza can be — crisp tortilla, rich wagyu, and a hint of truffle coming together in every bite.
An unexpected take on pizza, done the Akira Back way.

Dinner at ABSteak was one of those nights where the energy, the design, and the food all hit at the same level. Chef Akira Back brings a refined, modern edge to Korean BBQ, with premium cuts of American and Japanese wagyu, dry aged ribeye, marinated short ribs, and tableside grilling on sleek smokeless grills that let you enjoy every bite without walking out smelling like it. The space feels elevated but lively, with warm lighting, polished interiors, great cocktails flowing, and a crowd dressed for the occasion. Every course felt intentional, from the perfectly balanced banchan and house sauces to the rich, buttery beef cooked exactly how we like it. A high end Korean steakhouse experience that still feels social and fun, with great food, great atmosphere, and even better company. San Francisco nights done right.

@absteaksf is a Korean Steakhouse by @chefakiraback in @unionsquaresf and it’s so beautiful! This new, modern spot opened up about a year ago with a sleek bar in the front, private dining rooms, a circular center wine display, and lots of tables to share a Korean dinner with a group. I had the premium combo, that’s big enough to share between 2 or 3 people! The quality of the meats were amazing, and the staff were so attentive and cooked right there at the table.
It comes with a good variety of sides, and I highly recommend pairing dinner with one of their delicious cocktails (I tried their new gochujang margarita that has a little Korean even spice to it, along with their refreshing strawberry bingsu). And don’t forget dessert! Their black sesame gelato was incredible. You gotta check it out!

@absteaksf is the newest korean steakhouse in SF and it’s beautiful. Michelin-starred @chefakiraback just opened his new restaurant in @unionsquaresf , called AB Steak. I came to a preview of the space where we tried samples of their incredible cocktail menu, peeked into the private dining rooms, saw the tabletop grills, and most importantly, a look into the kitchen.
They have the dry-aged beef and wagyu on display and it was cool to see them cooking in the back. We sampled some of their menu items, my favorite obviously being the delicious cuts of beef with ssamjang on top. I also love their circular wine display. I can’t wait to come back soon to try a full dinner. You gotta check it out!
