I was interested in trying something new, as my son and I typically have a monthly outing. My son suggested we visit Izakaya Little Tokyo Restaurant, and I must say, I was thoroughly impressed. The food was wonderfully seasoned and absolutely delicious, and the atmosphere and service were truly exceptional. I would certainly plan to visit again.

Really wonderful little secret in this corner of Metairie. Excellent soups (actual soba is a relative rarity in the U.S.) and fantastic yakiniku (grilled meats). Service is always outstanding.
They typically cater to a younger crowd, so the music is usually loud electronic/dance music, which isn't my thing - but it's not going to keep me out. Sometimes the music is a little mellower... it's also well lit, clean, and a fun place to be.
