Izakaya-Wa is a cozy restaurant, known for its fresh and light sushi. The inside can be loud and lively, while the outdoor seating, although charming, may have a sticky surface. The service is attentive and timely, with a selection of Japanese beers available. However, wine options could be improved. The menu offers various dishes with intense flavors, such as the curry, but be aware that it might be heavy on the stomach. Some items may not be the best value, like the half and half special.
The fish is incredibly fresh and the portions, especially sashimi, are generous. The atmosphere feels quaint and transporting, like you’re out of town. The staff is friendly and helpful, even bringing ingredients to try when asked. The lunch specials are worth it, like the half and half chirashi bowl and pork belly udon. Authentic Japanese food shines in their bento sets and specials, with standout dishes like natto and top-tier udon.
A true hidden gem, Izakaya-Wa delivers an outstanding experience with warm, welcoming service and artfully presented dishes. The sushi melts in your mouth, and every bite bursts with quality. Whether you're a sushi lover or trying something new, the combination of delicious food, top-notch service, and inviting atmosphere makes it a place many customers plan to return to.
