Try the wasabi ice cream surprisingly amazing
Delicious and reinvented homemade ice cream – try the Wasabi, Ginger or Corn flavors. They also make amazing custom ice cream cakes.
Lovely flavors. Love the sesame one and wasabi is interesting for trying as well.
Try the wasabi dumplings with pork
Takowasa (raw octopus with wasabi sauce) paired with Yuki no Bosha is a perfect match!
A favorite haunt of mine for a low key evening. They had these terrific wasabi puffs maybe a yr ago that disappeared from the menu. Lychee martinis are nice!
The bagels have now been perfected. Deep brown, perfect crust , chewy doughy inside. Try one with wasabi cream cheese and fresh Nova!
Get the lox with wasabi cream cheese on a bagel of your choice for a nice change of pace.
Everything bagel with wasabi cream cheese, capers, red onions, and lox! Boom!
Best green tea ice cream i've ever had!!!! Wasabi ice cream is good too, very light and discrete.
Grilled duck soba! Wasabi honey ice cream!
Te soba here is handmade and excellent! Also, try the Honey Wasabi ice cream.
The wasabi soup dumplings have a good kick!
The soup dumplings are good, the wasabi dumplings are great and it isn't cheap but nice all the same
The soup dumplings here are to die for - for two people, get three orders of those: regular, wasabi, and kung fu (spicy). Pair with the scallion pancakes with beef and a couple of Tsingtaos.
Wasabi raw octopus and black cod appetizers are simply divine!!!
The raw wasabi octopus looks scary but absolutely amazing. Best on the menu
Salmon is always fresh. Ink makes me weak at the knees. Wasabi octopus is hands down phenomenal.
The freshly grated Wasabi is worth the extra $5.
Wasabi honey. Has to a cocktail use for this.
Best drunk food ever. And yes you must try all the sauces. Wasabi honey isn't as bad as it sounds 😏
Get the fries with the works at least once. Shake the wasabi honey sauce really well before squeezing it out.
Awesome imported Japanese beer selection. Which will go great with a crazy milk. Tako wasabi is always good. These are the coolest bartenders I know. All of them.
Make love to the jennygiri and have fun.
Tako wasabi, perfect briney and hot balance
Yakitori, tako wasabi, takoyaki, yaki onigiri, unagi tofu, potato salad, steak, etc
The supa tuna don is pretty amazing. Getting that again for sure!
Great prices and great atmosphere. The pool table makes for a great night. Definitely try the Manhattans.
This place has the city's best bartender - with his city's best soon to be bride!
The Shabu-Shabu is great! Go for the prime rib!
Shabu A is the way to go. Also, best late night drunken-eats deal around ($14 full meal of prime rib-eye goodness from mid -1:30am on Fri and Sat)
do you like to do it yourself?
maybe the closest you could get to an actual izakaya in japan, but in new york. sanma, tonkatsu, yakisoba, and kaki fry (fried oysters) are delicious. $8 pitchers of sapporo! super fun & lively place.
Enjoy pitchers of very affordable beer
Just a heads up. JS likes to get tanked and throw excess tuna against the wall. Beware.
The sashimi deluxe was excellent quality and an awesome deal. We liked it better than ordering 3 separate rolls.
If you aren't getting the spicy tuna pizza, I have one question for you: why aren't you getting the spicy tuna pizza?
K-Mac sliders and sashimi salad(pictured) are crazy good
Ask for Garlic Knots. The guy will tell you they're "2 euros". Relatedly, they're delicious.
Buffalo chicken pizza!!
Lovingly made in NYC, CHI, SEA & LA
