Juban Japanese Izakaya Reviews
Great time at the bar. We even did a sake tasting! Loved the sushi chef and bartender!
Such a special little Japanese gem. The food is delicious, but what really makes this place stand out is the hospitality. The staff make you feel completely at home; warm, attentive, and genuinely welcoming. The intimate setting makes the whole experience feel personal and relaxed. Just all-around great food, wonderful service, and a place you’ll want to keep coming back to. ❤
Love Juban, been a frequent / weekly regular for years.
The food here is impeccable - definitely among the best sushi to have in New York City. The fish is so fresh and delicious , the meat is very high quality.
One interesting thing they do are their specials which are surprising and delectable.
All the staff and the owner Ashwant are very welcoming and attentive.
Another greta thing is that they are pet friendly too.
Highly recomend this gem in Chelsea / Gallery...read full review
