With just four tables, reservations at the West Oakland restaurant are rarer than gold.

Cooper, Hsu, and their small-but-mighty team come out to introduce the dishes and talk about the drinks, with no pretentiousness at all, and other diners seemed to respect (and appreciate) the mellow approach.<\/p>\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph n2hx75i _1knl15h1 _1knl15h0 cej01i1\">As hinted, snagging a table will require patience, luck, and a solid knowledge of when reservations drop on <a href=\"https:\/\/www.opentable.com\/r\/sun-moon-studio-oakland\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">OpenTable<\/a>.
