Noren Izakaya is a culinary gem that serves exceptional food with a focus on quality and cleanliness. The menu features an array of delicious options, including highlights like bacon-wrapped scallop, breast, and fried chicken. Skewers are a standout, offering flavorsome choices such as chicken thigh, breast, heart, wagyu, sausage, short rib, and meatball. The drinks menu includes unique concoctions like yuzu highballs and cocktails, as well as a flight of sake and Japanese Roasted Rice Green Tea, which is earthy and distinctive. The ambiance is very intimate and decorative, creating a modern and comfortable atmosphere, enhanced by artful linens separating booths. Service is great, and customers appreciate the friendly staff. The food impresses with tender, juicy skewers, and special ingredients, including chicken oyster, wagyu beef, short ribs, meatballs, hamachi, sashimi with truffle, and miso soup, all of which are super delicious and not generic. The matcha tiramisu makes a perfect finishing touch, adding to the overall appeal of this izakaya. While portions may be small and prices a bit steep, the quality, unique flavors, and inviting environment make it a highly recommended spot.
