They have some informal seating inside, gets a little loud. You can order online for to-go orders.

$22 for rice, salad, and 8 pieces of nicely sized chicken thighs that are perfectly fried and great tasting (I may have wanted some extra powder in the dry miso dry one) and then had some sparkling sake on the side. If we had been less hungry (2 of us) could have done 4 thighs AND we had leftovers.You order (super helpful) and pickup up front.Great vibes.
