This is one of the few places in Philly that serves sake properly (poured into an overflowing cup inside a wooden masu container). They also makes great craft cocktails and have a delicious food menu. It can get crowded, but the stylish decor and friendly service make it a fun spot to grab a bite and late-night drink.

From 5pm they open up the basement, which hides an impressive Japanese restaurant with a sushi bar and robatayaki (flame-grilled cooked items).
