Japanese Restaurant

$$$$

Slip off your shoes and slip into a sunken dining table as you prepare to get your skewer on with a robust array of yakitori and kushiyaki selections from yuzu-glazed chicken thighs to pork belly, along with a solid selection of fresh oysters. The options get even more interesting on Wednesdays and Thursdays when they have limited amounts of more exotic proteins like wild boar and kangaroo. Whether you're expanding your horizons or playing it relatively safe, you'll find plenty of sake, Japanese beer, and shochu-based cocktails at your disposal to wash things down.
