Reviews
- dramatic_succulentWent to this little Japanese izakaya with a friend and honestly the vibe was so on point. They had a show playing on the TV, some Japanese food show, and for a sec I really did feel like I was in a tiny alley spot in Tokyo. We ordered chicken and green onion skewers and oh my god the chicken was so juicy, like literally bursting with juice, and the sauce was that perfect sweet-salty mix. The butter potatoes were super soft and packed with flavor, really satisfying. Place isn't big but it's cozy and cute, perfect for just the two of us to sit and chat for a while. Skewers come out hot off the grill and smell amazing. Whole experience was just really comfortable, I'd totally come back.
