Description
Behind the bar, cocktails join the beverage lineup at this neighborhood spot. The kitchen turns out dishes like loco beef, tofu mazeman, and miso black cod. While the service earns consistent praise, feedback on the food's depth of flavor is mixed. Diners report contrasting experiences, with some finding the black cod and ramen bland, while others find the same dishes satisfying. Its size makes it an intimate choice for a date or a quick table when larger nearby spots are full.
Good to know
Happy hour to 6:30 PM
