Karasu, a cozy Japanese bar, provides a delightful dining experience with consistently delicious food and drinks in a lovely speakeasy atmosphere. It's perfect for both casual happy hours and special occasions, with excellent service that ensures a memorable visit. The daily specials are amazing, and the knowledgeable staff are happy to guide guests through the menu.
The bar's great vibe and delectable dishes, such as the popular tuna, salad, karaage chicken, and tonkatsu, make it a recommended destination for a nice dinner experience. While the fried chicken could have been crispier, it is still a satisfying option. Guests can also enjoy vegetarian offerings like the vegetable curry and vegan ramen. A potato appetizer, which has been missed by some returning customers, is hoped to be back soon.
The food menu, though small, features high-quality items that may be pricier but are worth the indulgence. For a more budget-friendly option, the happy hour menu offers delectable bites like the pork belly over rice and karaage at a lower cost. The inventive and delicious cocktails, such as the Wabi Sabi, add to the overall experience. With decent prices and abundant vegetables, Karasu is an intimate spot that many see themselves returning to regularly.
