About 2AM Izakaya

2AM Izakaya serves excellent quality sushi with super fresh fish, making it one of the best sushi places in Lakeview. This late-night spot is also a great destination for other Japanese dishes, such as Niku Udon and Tonkatsu with curry sauce, accompanied by a BYOB policy. The cozy atmosphere features lanterns and Japanese artwork, creating a welcoming space for diners. Many customers have enjoyed the late-night sushi, praising the great salad and tasty noodle appetizer. The spicy Mexican roll has received particular acclaim for its good flavor. The attentive staff enhances the experience, making it a 10/10 late-night spot.

While some dishes like the roasted eggplant did not meet expectations, with a burnt and bitter skin, overall feedback highlights that this underrated spot is worth a visit, especially with warm sake as the weather cools down. The restaurant has a small amount of tables, contributing to a more intimate and cozy feel, ideal for a date or a solo visit. However, there are some concerns about the in-house alarms for delivery apps that can disrupt the relaxing atmosphere. Despite minor distractions, the food remains spectacular, making it a great find for sushi lovers looking for late-night options.
