Best fried rice I’ve had in my life. Reallly up to the hype. The chicken knuckles was something I’ve never had before. What a great experience !!!

Incredibly disappointed. The chirashi-don was watery and limp. It tasted like it wasn’t thawed properly. For $35, I would rather go to Safeway.
Every bite of the takowasa was inconsistent: some tasted like straight wasabi, while others didn’t taste like anything. The octopus itself did not have a fresh texture; it was not thawed properly either.
The mentaiko udon was ok. When I added the bacon, I thought the fattiness would complement the creaminess. It was the equivalent of low-fat bacon. Dry and paper-like.
As a Japanese person, I could not recommend this place. As a matter of fact, it’s offensive. The only redeeming quality was the kind waitress.

I was craving something warm to eat close to midnight and I found this place. I was with my Japanese roommate, and he himself said this place did give off an Izakaya vibe. Most of the food items offered here I’ve tried elsewhere, so I ended up getting the sukiyaki, which was to my liking.
We did feel a little out of place, as the servers seemed primarily focused on a larger group, who they appeared to be friends with. So we felt a little forgotten throughout most of our time there, also considering that it was not that busy as we did leave a little before they closed.

Loved the place! The food was really tasty and great for sharing. They have the best gyozas I had in the East Bay. The skewers were also really tasty and the sweet potato fries too. We didn’t quite like the Crispy Chicken knee (which the table next to us recommended, so it might have been a matter of taste) but we told the waitress and she exchanged it for us at no charge. Staff is super friendly btw!
Probably a place to go with friends more so than a date since it’s a bit noisy. But it’s a super fun place and the decor is awesome.
Make sure to make a phone reservation to avoid waiting outside.

This place is a gem.
I was craving for ramen after work, and this was the place that opened late. I was not disappointed
Had ordered 2 orders of the Gomae, super delicious!!!
Next the Tofu avocado was so bomb!! Next time I will get two of those with a side of rice.
Ordered some kimchi and it was good as well, very tasty.
Finally, for the Ramen I had the Tonkatsu and I was not disappointed at all. Most Ramens I had were salty but not here. The Ramen is very tasty.
Loved the bathroom! The Manga wall was so cool.
I will definitely come again.
Thank you so much ‘Kinda Izakaya’

The food here is quite nice, and the cocktails are genuinely fantastic. While the portions are on the smaller side, the overall flavor of every dish is delightful. Personally, I especially love the drinks—they’re a standout feature of this place.

Great little spot with awesome grilled meats you can’t get at many restaurants. The grilled squid was tender, flavorful- cooked to perfection. Tried some yakitori as well, both beef tongue offerings were delicious. I will be back for more!

This was an awesome experience full of delicious food and friendly staff. We arrived on a Friday night and were able to seat at the bar immediately. Seating was a little cozy but not having to wait made it worth it! We ordered a variety of items and everything was delicious!

An aesthetic tucked away restaurant in Berkeley which is Well worth the time to stop. The service was efficient. The ramen broth was beautiful, and the soup was complexly flavored, sweet and umami. The meats in each dish were tender and seasoned with care. I cannot recommend this any more highly!

Nice ambiance, more Izakaya-y than most Izakaya restaurants in the US. More than your usual sushi fare.
Walls covered in Japanese anime and kitch posters. There’s a big communal table that was full of Japanese students when we dined.
