Izakaya • $$$
“A favorite we try to get out to when life allows!I always like trying a new item or 2 along with a couple I KNOW I already love! It’s so fun to go through the menu and jot down possibilities.Also the people are lovely. We adore them!Vegetarian options: Veggie Gyoza I tried tonight was awesome!“
“What a little gem! This is an authentic Japanese sushi and izakaya restaurant! Sushi by chef Takashi is amazing, with just the right amount of rice, perfect temperature of the fish and rice, and super fresh fish, so yummy!We also enjoyed the happy hour drinks, great selection of white/red wine and also sake and beer! I would come everyday!“
“We found another gem in southwest. HANA Ramen and Izakaya nice cozy place and nice selection of menu. Me and my lovely wife just feel like some ramen and some Izakaya with my beer. This place is awesome good food good service. You guys should try. I will go again.“
“AMBIENCE: A giant sakura tree in the middle is pretty cool, tables are meant to be for groups. A separate area is the bar/lounge.FOOD: Food was good, nothing really stood out though.OVERALL: My friend and I had the entire place to ourselves, both due to the time we went, 12am on a Thursday, and the construction on Decatur.Parking: CAUTION: There's construction going on Decatur. Make sure to enter on W University Ave thorough the smog check“
“Went with my family and it was very nice to go off the strip and enjoy good food. Everything was super delicious. Food came quick, service was excellent. They were super accommodating to our little ones as well. Definitely visiting again next time we’re in town.“
“Wow! Wish I lived closer to this place, the food is simply fantastic. Fresh, hot, simple, flavorful and great textures. My party got here riiight before a huge dinner rush. Service was friendly but quite strapped so it was a bit slow, but the food came quickly once we placed our orders.“
“We tried this restaurant on our trip in Vegas and it was great. We ordered the corn butter, the beef bowl and both were amazing dishes for a very reasonable price. The egg toast dessert was surprisingly good. The crew is very kind. Highly recommend.“
“This place is SO cool!!! It was a little hard to find. Google took us right to it, but we got confused with the Korean BBQ that is next door. DO not go across the street where there's a place with Shabu in the name that is not the right place. It's literally a door with the sign on the wall above it.... definition of hole in the wall. When we entered, we found a rectangular shaped bar with seats on the inside and outside of the bar and electric cook tops on the bar. The staff was very friendly, recommended several dishes and we ordered enough food to feed 8 people but we were a party of 4. Luckily, our party consisted of 3 teenagers, so they devoured 95% of it! We got the hot pot with A5 Wagyu beef and shared it. The beef was the overall favorite but not by much as all the food was delicious. We also ordered tonkatsu cheese, 2 orders of cheese corn (second overall favorite), 2 orders gyoza, agedashi tofu, a salmon bowl, a beef udon dish with a sauce that was sweet and yummy, udon soup and I think I'm forgetting something. Everything was fresh, served hot, smelled incredible, and tasted even better. The Waygu was expensive, but we were told the price up front. The staff even took song requests! I will be going back when I bring my hubby back in the near future.“
“Great shabu shabu. I usually go to the location in La Mirada CA. So this should be the same experience. Unfortunately, I have it a 4 due to long wait time when there were plenty of tables open. The table that was open for 35 minutes ended up being the table we sat at (it was an empty table). Now let's get to the food. Plenty of options to choose from the buffet. Veges, tempura, seafood, kimchi, ramen, sauces, etc....The broth came quick and the pots were hot. The meat choices were excellent. Order enough meat and reorder quickly. You're gonna love it. This place is worth it and the prices are reasonable. Check it out!“
“I can't recommend this place enough. This place is the gem where I'd dine in when I visit Vegas. The fish was all fresh, and the service was superb. I enjoyed their thick and fresh sashimi flavorful chirashi and loved the taste of the rice that came with it. Buttery unni pasta was also delicious. My family enjoyed it here, and I’m glad I trusted my gut to bring them here.“
