Reviews


This restaurant has mixed reviews, with some customers expressing disappointment in the quality of the food and service, while others had a great experience. The tonkotsu ramen was a point of contention, with some feeling it did not meet traditional standards. However, the bento box and sushi rolls received positive feedback. The service was a highlight for some, while others felt it was lacking. The reservation system also caused some frustration for diners. Overall, the restaurant seems to have potential, especially for those looking for good food in an unexpected location, The Izakaya typically has an average rating of 4.4.
