Awaji Izakaya offers amazing food with generous portions and top-notch quality, reminiscent of Japan. The beef short rib udon and chicken katsu with curry are favorites among customers. The small space can get crowded easily, but the friendly servers make up for it. The delicious dishes, including Takoyaki and sushi, make for an enjoyable experience. The homey interior with Japanese cultural decor adds to the charm. While some found the udon a bit too onion-heavy, the curry with katsu pork was a hit. Customers praise the veggie fried rice for its flavor and satisfying taste, and the sushi rolls, including the Awaji dragon roll, are highly recommended. The staff, especially Thad, creates a welcoming atmosphere, making visitors feel cared for. The restaurant offers a happy hour from 4 to 6 pm, making it a popular spot worth making a reservation for due to its reputation and quality. Overall, Awaji Izakaya is a hidden gem with excellent food and friendly service. Visitors often praise the fantastic food, amazing cocktails, and excellent service from Thad. The staff is helpful with choosing food, and the veggie fried rice and brussel sprouts are highly recommended. The cozy atmosphere gives a sense of being in Japan, though some note that the sushi could use improvement. Despite some loud moments from the manager, the overall experience is positive and lively, making it a place worth visiting repeatedly.
