This Inner Richmond family-run restaurant offers a modern twist on classic Korean and Japanese dishes in a sleek, minimalist 40-seat dining room. The décor features local art for sale and a wooden tree, crafted out of a fallen cypress that the brothers found in GGP. In fact, the name Namu, which means “wood” in Korean, was inspired by this tree. "
