Nestled beneath the ever-buzzing Momotaro is this stylish and serene bolthole where reservations are a must on most nights. The scene plays up the underground lair theme with soft red lights and Japanese lanterns, plus thick curtains to lend an air of privacy. Of course, you're not just here for the look and feel—it's the likable izakaya menu that lures most.
Not to outdo its more sophisticated sister upstairs, this menu offers up a few heavy hitters for sushi lovers. Begin with delicious sashimi like shima aji, akami or otoro, only to be followed up with the equally alluring uni pasta. Choose from an array of smaller bites, such as ebi katsu don, with panko breaded tiger shrimp and pickled shishito.
