WAYA Japanese Izakaya offers a cozy setup where customers can watch their food being prepared. Some tables have unique wooden stools to sit on. The Spicy Tonkotsu Miso Ramen is a standout dish, known for its rich and creamy broth and a good kick of spices. The Tonkotsu ramen remains a classic choice, and the menu also features dishes like Waya Buns, Pork Gyoza, and Beef Yakisoba. The restaurant has received praise for its delicious Porkribs Tonkotsu and the wagyu sushi, which melts in the mouth. Parking can be a challenge, but the overall experience is worth it. The restaurant impresses with impeccable service, beautiful food presentation, and reasonable prices. Vegetarian options are available, with no restrictions for dietary needs. The spicy miso ramen and tonkatsu ramen are flavorful and satisfying choices. The veggie gyoza is especially good with the dip, and the Veggie Yakisoba has been praised for its taste. While the salmon rice bowl may not be as impressive, a return visit is definitely on the cards to explore more of the menu. Customers should expect a bit of a wait due to the small size of the restaurant, but the taste and generous portions make it worthwhile. Customers have enjoyed the atmosphere and service, particularly noting the awesome waitstaff and recommending the sake margarita with any tonkotsu option.
