If you've ever wondered what it's like to eat a sushi roll the size of a small automobile, look no further. I ordered the Titanic Roll, and let me tell you, this thing didn't just hit the iceberg, it was the iceberg. I needed a blueprint and a team of engineers just to figure out how to take the first bite.While the sheer size of the roll was impressive (and slightly alarming), the flavor was a bit of a sugar rush. There was so much sauce that I briefly considered bottling it and selling it as a dessert topping. That said, the fish was fresh, the rice was well-prepared, and my taste buds eventually recovered from their brief sweet confusion. For the size ans quality, it was worth the $20.The service? Friendly and efficient--no complaints there. The staff didn't even flinch when I asked if the Titanic Roll came with a lifeboat.Would I come back? Absolutely. But next time, I'm bringing a construction crew, a forklift, and maybe a less sugary sushi choice.

My recent visit to The Izakaya was fantastic! The ambiance was inviting, with a modern yet cozy design that made for a comfortable dining experience. The staff were friendly and attentive, ensuring that all our needs were met.The sushi was incredibly fresh and expertly crafted. We ordered a variety of rolls, including the Daddy's Roll, Titanic Roll, and the Spicy Salmon Hand Roll, all were bursting with flavor. We also had some sashimi that melted in my mouth. The presentation was beautiful, making each dish a delight for the eyes as well.I found the prices to be very reasonable considering the quality of the ingredients and the skill involved in their preparation. While some items were priced a bit higher than typical sushi spots, the overall experience and taste made it worth every penny.In conclusion, I would highly recommend The Izakaya to anyone looking for an exceptional sushi experience. Whether you're a sushi connoisseur or someone trying it for the first time, you won't be disappointed. I look forward to returning and trying other items on the menu!

After waiting 30 minutes for a table and another 45 minutes to place an order you then tell us we no longer can order sushi it's too late?!?!?!! Why wouldn't you tell us that while waiting for so damn long with our infant child. I've never been so flabbergasted. Who goes to a sushi place to order ramen?!??? Why would you hand us a full menu and walk away saying absolutely nothing?!??

this has been a family favorite for the past 10 ish years and it's something cozy and has great comfort food, but i think the quality just isn't as good as before.the dishes here at izakaya are not really too typical of a normal japanese restaurant. I got the beef udon and was expecting it to be more sukiyaki style beef. The flavor and depth also just wasn't there and I think it's incredibly subpar for a $15 udon dish. The ramen here also isn't the best quality, as their house ramen and other bowls aren't really tonkatsu broth. It was also lacking in flavor. Their eggs also usually aren't marinated soy eggs, it's simply just a hard boiled egg. Again, not a standard or quality bowl of ramen for the $17 price tag. You can get better and more quality ramen for the same price. I do like the sushi rolls here. Favs are IZ roll, dragon roll, and the pocket roll. I would also highly recommend their bento boxes as those are pretty good!

First time going here yesterday. The ambience of the resto are very Japanese style. The food is great atleast for the hamachi kama and the saba shioyaki. They dont have takoyaki which is disappointing since that is one of my favorite. The price is okay and affordable. Ther service is fast. Just dont like much of their sushi. Overall it was a good food. Lets see if Ill come back here again.

Was Craving Japanese food. My friend and I chose Izakaya. Its my favorite place for Bento box. The tempura was light and crispy. The sesame chickenwas very tasty. It came with 2 pieces of California roll, miso soup, rice and salad. Diane ordered her favorite vegetable sukiyaki. We both loved their remodel with added booths and a sushi bar.
