Tucked away in the basement of a nondescript office building in Midtown, this izakaya-style restaurant feels like a secret escape. The interior is cozy and intimate, with Japanese-style screens and woodwork. The menu features creative takes on Japanese classics, and something on the extensive sake list (over 260 types) is certain to pair well, whatever your taste. Reservations recommended.
