Here’s the menu and there are a lot of choices.
YOU GET THREE!!!!!!! PLUS SEASONED RICE and SALAD
We made our choices and I relaxed with the most delicious oolong tea and took in the atmosphere and company.
As you can see this is a quaint little turn of the century bungalow with less than 15 tables and a small bar. This is considered to be a Izakaya Restaurant. It is a refined informal Asian Fusion Japanese Pub or Tapas kind of restaurant. They offer ingenious masterfully crafted small plates, Japanese Micro Brews, Craft Cocktails, amazing meticulously prepared and carefully poured Shochu Flights. The Shochu a sort of Japanese spirit closest to vodka that are offer here are unique and have different aromas and changing flavors will certainly embellish any already exquisite plate here.
