Izakaya An Japanese Restaurant

My wife and I love this place! The chef and waiting staff are very nice and the food is amazing!!!

Beyond sweet staff, the people (and delicious food) are making this place an absolute gem to the community. Glad to have stumbled in here.

It was just me when I went in, very polite server, I had just gotten back from a strenuous hike and was looking to eat good food. The food was delicious if I ever hiked up Mt. Diablo from bottom to peak again, I'll definitely come back here.

We are in town for work, and I soooo much needed to find real authentic home cooked Japanese food! Izakaya An was so wonderful with delicious tasty dishes, just like in Japan. If you’re looking for an actual authentic experience, come here!

The food is IMPECCABLE. It is always high quality, from the fish to the mushrooms to seaweed to tea. I've been a few times and they are so warm and welcoming. The aesthetic is cute and the music playing was sooo relaxing, what a dreamy atmosphere. Not to mention the fancy bathroom, there are even toothpicks and mouthwash.

Soooooooo happy this place came to Concord!!! Just when I was feeling we moved to a culinary desert, surrounded by Little Cezars, Starbucks, and a Golden Coral (that Concordians are enthusiastically excited for some reason) Izakaya An has arrived!We popped in here being cautiously optimistic for some Japanese cuisine and we were overly suprised how delicious it was!!! If you've been to Japan or you're seeking a truly more traditional place this is spot on. Udon was amazing!The karaage, udon(chicken), mixed tempura, pork belly, and beef skewers were DELICIOUS!!! The only thing that made it better was the smile on their faces and the sweet lady that owns the place coming out to say hello and check on us.There were three other tables there with people having fun and seemed to be enjoying their food too.Love this place and will certainly be back to keep supporting this wonderful family establishment! Thanks so much for the great food and service!The Asahi was promptly refilled too :)Update 10 Jan 22: Izakaya now offering sushi rolls. They are delicious!!!Update 16 Mar 24: This place is still amazing!

One of the most truly authentic Japanese izakaya-style restaurants I've found in this area. I've been to many izakayas in Tokyo and the food here is exactly like I remember from Japan. Also one of the only places I've found that does tempura really right. Really, I'd be perfectly happy just eating their kinpura with some Kikumasamune Taro sake for hours on end, though.

Parking: Plenty of parking. Parking lot is right in front and never full.

Wheelchair accessibility: On ground floor with easy wheelchair access.
