“ Pretty good sushi in fishtown! Loved the atmosphere and will definitely be back to try more. Unfortunately did not love the actual sushi nigiri pieces we got (didn't taste that fresh) nor the fried ice cream but everything else was a home run. Esp the cucumbers, wonton tacos and the crispy tuna rice. ”
“ We came here for my birthday, rescheduled this evening Reservations 4:15 pm..they open 4 pm. & We got chefs tasting $45 pp for 4 dishes! It was wonderful, a small plate, regular sushi, specialty roll, then choice donburi or ramen dish, , ending with dessert: either ice cream mochi or fried ice cream It has a good bar too, which didn't order. ”
“ According to Google, Izakaya translates to a type of Japanese bar in which a variety of small, typically inexpensive, dishes and snacks are served to accompany the alcoholic drinks. That is a perfect representation of what we experienced on Saturday night. We stopped in during Happy Hour. Most of the small plates were discounted and a few sushi rolls were as well. The house cocktail made with Midori liquor was a popular choice among customers. I forgot to snap pics but we started off with edamame and Spicy Tuna Rice Crisps. The rice crisps were amazing. 4 pieces per order and the crunch was so satisfying. Edamame was salted and warmed up just right. The veggie dragon roll was extremely flavorful and filling. The Sriracha made it spicy but not in an overpowering way. It was hard to believe the only thing inside were veggies - that's how excellent it was. We opted for no dessert, but I believe they have fried ice cream and mochi ice cream as options. It was too cold that day for ice cream, but I'd definitely be open to it during the warmer months. The seating layout and the art on the wall was such a hit, including the Snorlax directly behind us. He was so dang cute! Service was great and our server took wonderful care of us. We loved this precious spot in Fishtown! ”
“ I'm new to the area and I'm so happy that I found Izakaya! We went on a Monday night; it wasn't too busy. I started with the Tea Time to drink and it was delicious. Extremely refreshing. My partner and I shared the spicy tuna crispy rice. This is one of our favorite apps to order and theirs were really enjoyable! I ordered a salmon roll and the fire fighter roll. To be so honest...this was the best salmon roll I've ever had. I don't know if it was the way they seasoned their rice or what, but this salmon roll was top tier (trust me, I'm a salmon roll connoisseur). The fire fighter roll was really great too, just was a little too drenched in spicy mayo. The atmosphere and lighting was super cute and the staff was extremely friendly. I love a free flowing kitchen, the sushi just took a little longer to come out. I'm really excited to go back, especially for happy hour!! ”
“ OMG I did the Omakase experience and it was ahhhhhhmaziinnggg! The sushi was so fresh and flavorful. I tried some pieces that I've never had before and it was sooo good. The atmosphere was very nice and good music played. I also got a drink called the Yuzu Honey Bee. THAT drink was ALL THAT! I had to get two lol.Inwould definitely recommend this place if you truly love sushi. ”
“ Sat at the bar while waiting for Sushi by Bou. The bartender was super nice and the drink he made us was sooooo goood!. An intimate spot with great drinks. ”
