Resy's own listing and dining-guide coverage describe Shion as an intimate, roughly 12-seat stone counter, and with only two seatings a night the limited capacity is the whole reason bookings are described as challenging to secure.
There is no walk-in culture here: Resy notes reservations can be made by phone, email, or online, and cancellations within 7 days of the date carry a fee equal to the full $400-plus omakase price, underscoring how tightly the small room is managed.
