We met up with another couple to try this Japanese Izakaya style restaurant and honestly didn't go in with high expectations--especially since we've all traveled to Japan and experienced the real thing. But this place completely knocked it out of the park. It far exceeded everything we anticipated. We were seated in a private booth, which made the experience feel even more authentic and intimate. Every dish that came out was absolutely delicious, thoughtfully prepared, and beautifully presented. They even provided a bell to press for service, and each time, the server appeared almost instantly with a warm smile. It's clear the owner and management truly know how to create and run a successful business--from the attention to detail to the seamless service and overall experience. For a moment, it truly felt like we had been transported back to Japan. An unforgettable dining experience. read more

When you walk into Izakaya Nana it's like walking into the alleyways of Japan. The booths were also well decorated too (there was one with one piece images on the wall), disappointingly though the one I was in had very dark lighting so my dad had to use his phone flashlight to see the menu. For our food we ordered the hako sushi, tornado omelette fried rice, trio tuna sushi roll, yakitori platter (ordered chicken gizzard and gyu harami on the side) and the A5 Wagyu cooked on the stone grill. I recommend getting the yakitori platter as it's a nice sampler but my husband especially enjoyed the chicken gizzard. My dad never had wagyu before so he especially loved the wagyu but I do think it's expensive for the amount they give you, I can see why it's pricier but just know before you order it's like $45 for 2.5 oz or in our case about 5 thin slices of wagyu. My brother said the tornado omelette was tasty and filling and he enjoyed it. The trio tuna sushi roll was very fresh. As for the service, I think everyone was pleasant but the vibes were a little off, it seems like they were just very exhausted. This doesn't affect the quality of the food or the experience but it was just something I noticed. They were still very attentive and provided great service. The reason for the one star off is because I do wish the Hako sushi had a bit more flavor, I saw so many different ingredients and fish but none of the flavors were impactful, it was rather one dimensional which was disappointing because it was presented so beautifully. Overall, I recommend giving Izakaya nana a try and I would definitely go again to try other things. read more

Met up with friends over the weekend to catch up. Glad we chose this place. Such a neat place with good ambiance and decor is fun. Tough to choose since wanted to try lots on the menu. Started off with the raw oysters topped with uni which tasted very fresh. The crazy nana roll was a unique take of shrimp tempura , spicy tuna, mango, eel, avocado and crab. Lots going on but explosion of flavor. The unadon was eel over rice which was a big portion of eel. Sweet and tasty. Overall great night of food and company. read more

I saw tons of great reviews for Izakaya Nana, so my friends and I decided to check it out. We didn't have a reservation and were quoted a 35 minute wait, but ended up being seated in under 10 minutes around 9 PM. PSA: after 10 PM, I believe sake and oysters are buy one get one free! Here's everything we ordered: Yakitori platter - 7 assorted skewers. Solid. The pork belly being the standout for me. Fried soft shell crab - tasted good, but it seemed like only half a crab instead of a full one, which was a bit disappointing. Karaage chicken - nicely fried and paired with a mayo based sauce, but the chicken was dry. Sashimi platter - fresh and well presented. No complaints here. Mentaiko cream udon - just OK. Not as creamy as expected and a bit bland. The dish didn't really stand out. Impossible Unadon - definitely worth it! Grilled eel with tamago over rice, generous portion. Tornado omelette fried rice - the egg was slightly overcooked so it lacked that creamy texture, but the fried rice and curry had great flavor. Overall, the food was good but not exceptional. I've had better, but it's still worth trying. read more

The decor its self is what got me to come out to flushing. I will say the staff is impatient a bit but I ignored them. What matters to me is the food. The food was fresh and hot! I was alittle taken back by the menu but I found something I would enjoy. The shrimp tempura was good, the Thai chili wings were good had a strong kick at the end surprisingly. Everyone enjoyed their food. The steak was tender the rice was soft. The pork dumplings were good. My son got sashimi and he loved it. The spicy miso soup was delicious too. I will definitely be back. For five people the bill came out to $236. We got a lot of food so it was reasonably priced. read more

Took my sons to Izakaya Nana in Flushing... and somehow we stepped into Japan without paying for a plane ticket. Private wooden rooms, traditional vibes, and suddenly I'm sitting there like a samurai... except holding a Diet Coke and Sapporo. Real warrior energy. Started strong with California rolls and salmon rolls -- clean, fresh, no nonsense. Then the Spicy BBQ Karaage Chicken showed up... and my sons turned into silent ninjas. Nobody talks when the food is that good. Pork Katsu Curry? Crispy, flavorful, and disappeared faster than my paycheck after grocery shopping. Then the boys ordered jumbo lump crab... and suddenly they're food critics. "Dad, this is phenomenal." I raised them right. Finished with Toro Ikura Don -- toro sashimi, ikura, rice... pure perfection. At this point I wasn't leaving... I was considering asking for a lease. Great food. Amazing ambiance. Solid father-son mission accomplished. Step into Japan... leave with zero leftovers. Izakaya Nana 141-28 Northern Blvd, Flushing, NY Highly recommend. I'm definitely coming back... and next time I'm ordering first. read more

I absolutely loved this place! The environment felt really cozy and the service was amazing. I was able to try their truffle fries and happy hour drinks including the Lychee Martinis and they were delicious. Great deals and for something sweet, they provide Vanilla ice cream! read more

Izakaya Nana - Izakaya Near Me - Flushing, New York

Very cool spot! In the front you can rent a kimono and there's a small shop along with a few arcade options. The decor and aesthetic is top notch, it's really beautiful and the booths/tables give you privacy. They have amazing music that matches the vibe and quality service. Patrons are handed a wet wipe for hands before and after, they open it for you and immediately take the wrappers away. I like the oyster fries and my mentaiko cream udon was pretty good. Only reason for the 4 star is because I wish the menu items were more unique. The food is good so i'm sure they'd be able to nail new offerings. read more

First and foremost the parking situation is so terrible in this area they even have signs outside some of the parking lots saying that the lot is not for patrons of Izakaya Nana. Especially with a lot of snow taking away parking on the street; please plan to spend a lot of time looking for parking if you don't want to pay for the parking garages. Every item we had was a 10/10, absolutely would come back and try more items. My coworker and I could not stop raving about the food. Delicious all around. Customer service was good, nothing above and beyond. This place is extremely aesthetically pleasing, you just have to see it in person. I love the privacy you have in the booths. There's a call button inside if you need assistance which is great. There's something off with the water in the bathroom sink. It goes from normal to boiling hot in a matter of seconds and stays hot no matter what direction you move it. read more

This izakaya spot in Flushing is a great place for late-night eats and drinking with friends! They have some solid BOGO deals for drinks in the evening and a wide selection of food. Service here is nice and pretty quick. The interior is also very decorated and I love how they have different private booths with anime themes for you to dine in. We got their spicy dumplings, takoyaki, yakitori platter, sashimi platter, and truffle fries. Everything was pretty good but the yakitori platter stood out the most. Their takoyaki was also pretty solid as they filled it with octopus. As we came late at night, they had a BOGO hot sake option, which we definitely took advantage of. read more

Found the place by searing for "places To eat in flushing NY" on TikTok, if you want a unique experience, this place definitely delivered. No reservation, only available seating open was bar seats - that we enjoyed. Food was fresh and seasoned tasty but salty, like food I had in Japan. Very friendly Bar tender took our order, brought hot sake, took care of us and servers brought us our good portion 3-orders, TV with anime entertained us. A definite recommendation for return visits to try more dishes and seat in other locations. read more

Vibe and staff were awesome! But in terms of food, it seems to be a hit or miss and there will be some items I'd order over the others. This time around we ordered the oden soup. It was lukewarm and not hot so you know it's been sitting there for a while. You also kind of smell the cleaning agent on the bowl and spoon which kind of made the soup unappetizing. Ordered the crispy sweet chili wings, they were good but a bit too much sauce and it was sweet with a kick of spice, felt like the sauce wasn't that balanced out. Got the kaarage chicken as well and it seemed like it just had a lot of batter, so wouldn't really order these again. Also got the lobster potato balls and it tasted more like potatos than any lobsters inside so that was a bit disappointing as well. What we did enjoy eating were the mentaiko cream udon and tomato omelet fried rice. The cream was good and the curry was good. Ordered the omelet fried rice over the katsu curry this time because last time we ordered the katsu, the katsu was small for what you're paying. read more

Fun place. Fun menu. Nice and tucked away from the hustle and bustle in Flushing. We asked for a table towards the back of the dining room, but we were sat in the front, where the chill from outside never quite went away. Definitely recommend, there's something on the menu for everyone. And the dining room adornments are certainly intentional. read more

Cuisine: 7 Service: 8 Decor: 9 Value: 6 Overall: 7 This is one of the prettiest restaurants in Queens. They did a wonderful job with the interior design. It has a beautiful main dining room, but also lots of cute private rooms too. The food is above average, nothing amazing, but a meal here is always a feast for the eyes. Due to its decor and friendly service (Ben is a great bartender), I have been here many times for meals, snacks, or drinks with friends. I have tried much of the menu, and I would say everything is decent to good. Prices are slightly high, but not horrible. They call Monday through Thursday 5:00pm to 1:00am their Golden Hour. Lots of good deals on food and drinks. From 10:00pm to 1:00am everyday, they also offer BOGO on draft beers, house sake, and oysters. Check them out. read more

Came here for lunch. Our relatives were visiting from out of state. They were craving japanese food. Online we tried to reserve but there were no available reservations for 2pm on a Sunday. We decided to walk in anyways around 2pm. Restaurant was pretty empty about 3 other tables besides ours. Not sure why we couldn't reserve online. We ordered: Sunagimo (Chicken Gizzard) Pork Katsu Curry Tuna Trio Roll (6) Gyu Harami-beef Skirt Butabara-pork Belly Grilled Eel Baby Scallop A5 Wagyu Golden Fried Rice Cha Han Grilled Miso Marinated black Cod Truffle Fries Takoyaki (5) Crispy Sweet Chili Wings Mentaiko Cream Udon Shrimp Ebi Tempura Taiyaki (Red Bean) Ghe black cod was perfectly cooked, A5 wagyu fried rice was very tasty and peppery. Truffle fries were solid. Scallop was okay, probably would not get again. Overall: food was very solid here, a bit pricy but not too bad. Ambience was very nice. Our table was below floor level. Highly recommend if you want to take friends or family for a casual hangout. read more

Everything was top notch. I came here with a friend tonight. I wanted to try this spot for months. The photos do not do this place justice, I'm telling you the inside is breathtaking. I was stunned by the decor. Mind you we didn't even see the private themed rooms and we were blown away by the detail of the interior design. Really nice! The food was even better. We had the karaage chicken, truffle fries and dancing girl roll to share. The best part of the whole meal was the sushi. Really yummy and fresh. A good size for sharing. I had that tonkatsu ramen which was flavorful and had two perfect jammy eggs. My friend had the omelette rice which she liked. I also had the strawberry sake mojito which was refreshing. The service was impeccable, they even lent me a charger. I like the call button feature. I highly, highly recommend this spot and I'm so happy I got to try it finally! read more

Beautiful restaurant modeled after the alleyways of Japan--its fusion attempt at an izakaya. The menu was very large with different options. Although not super allergy friendly for example their "truffle fries" has parm in it, but no where on the menu indicates that. Would definitely double check before ordering. We chose to sit at the bar and they put us at a corner which was inconvenient since we constantly had to flag the staff to take our order, follow-up on our drinks or get water. They just kept walking past us. Food wise, everything was good. From the skewers to the sushi rolls, everything came out quick and fresh. I enjoyed the takowasabi, the tuna trio roll, beef, pork belly and mushroom skewers, and the squid. Truffle fries and the karage can be a skip. read more

There is metered parking in front and residential parking a couple blocks away. I found a residential spot, while my friend found a paid spot (it's until 7PM in front, 10PM across the street, so make sure you double check the time!) easily at late afternoon/early evening. They have many private boothes, which we were seated at. I enjoyed the privacy of the booth, and there is a call button is needed, but they were always nearby and did check on us (refilled hot tea) here and there. The Takowasabi had nicely sized chunks of octopus. It could use a little more wasabi flavor, but you can definitely taste the wasabi. The Yakitori Platter has a good variety. Everything was well cooked and tender. They let the meat shine, as the seasonings are light and complimentary. I enjoyed the Gyu Harami the most. The Sashimi Platter was fresh, though some cuts were on the small side. The presentation was cool with the dry ice. I enjoyed the shrimp the most. The Taiyaki was crisp and hot! It was filled generously with red bean paste. It was not too sweet, which made it a good ending to the meal. The Fruit Nana Lemonade was also not too sweet. It was a good balance of fruit and lemonade. They knew to split the check in half when we put both our credit cards down on the check, and it was easily done with their tablet. Overall a nice spot for good food and good conversations! Would like to try more things with a bigger group next time. read more

Step Into Japan Without Leaving NYC. Private wooden-style rooms and traditional Japanese touches throughout -- it really feels like you've stepped out of NYC. And the food? Just as impressive. The Smoked Salmon on the Fire arrives dramatically over open flames, adding that unforgettable tableside moment. The Wagyu Foie Gras Uni is served over crisp toast and unveiled in smoke -- buttery wagyu, silky foie gras, and briny uni layered together into the most luxurious bite of the night. Pure umami overload. The Jumbo Maruyaki crab is rich and deeply savory, packed with sweet crab flavor in every bite. The Signature Sampler is perfect if you want variety to start. And the creamy Mentaiko Udon is silky, savory, and addictive. Come for the immersive vibe, stay for every indulgent bite. Follow me @foodie.elite on IG and Tiktok for more great finds! read more

Returned to this restaurant with my family and had another great experience. The service was excellent, the food was fresh and delicious, and the drinks were just as enjoyable as the last time. It seems to have grown in popularity, so reservations are recommended. It's within a reasonable walking distance from the train, and there are also bus options available. Parking can be a bit tricky, but there are spots nearby. read more

Out of everything I liked the toro don the most! They also have good drinks here! read more

The service was ok. Nothing to call home about. Nonetheless, we ordered the yakitori. It was cold.

We've been coming here for Christmas dinners over the last few years. My dad really enjoys the food here. Their A5 Wagyu fried rice is a family favorite. It's a very nice and unique space that feels like you're walking through Tokyo at night. The service is good but it can take some time when pressing the call button for a waiter or waitress to show up. I understand they're super busy. The truffle fries are also really good as well as the ika geso and chicken kara-age. We also like the skewers, mentaiko cream udon and chicken yakisoba. Honestly, everything is delicious. Just order what you're in the mood for, you can't go wrong. read more

Came here for a bite with my cousins, & I actually love this restaurant ! This place is very unique, the ambiance is very cute as well. This restaurant actually has private rooms so you can actually have a date or even just to grab a bite. It also has a bar, their walls are also designed based of their culture which is amazing. They even have a room where you can sit on the floor with a comfy pillow. Service was great, they actually have a red button in each room that you can press so the waitress can come which was nice. But waitresses are helpful & always attentive. I ordered edamame, they were very hot & tasty. They had a chili garlic on them, so it made is delicious. I also ordered waygu golden fried rice, the rice was so soft & the beef was very tender which I loved. Definitely would have it again. I ordered a seaweed salad as well, unfortunately I did not like it. The flavor tasted off, & it smelled funny, I was disappointed because I do love seaweed. Lastly I had a spicy island roll, this did have tuna on top. If you're not a fan of tuna you wouldn't like, but overall very fresh & well seasoned. For dessert I had a matcha crepe cake, I love matcha ! So the crepe cake tasted just like matcha, not too sweet either. Overall I would come here again. 10/10 read more

For our entrees we got the tonkotsu ramen and tornado omelet fried rice. Everything was absolutely delish, we devoured everything and left full and satisfied.

Loved it loved it loved it!! Very easy service. Came in and was sat immediately. The menu was eclectic and the very first thing I noticed was the great music selection. Like every song was on point. Half of them I didn't know of and found myself Shazam'ing some of them. It was also good to hear Japanese music too. Loved that there was a big screen for entertainment in the back. The bar looked beautiful, well decorated. Large size and a round about open seating. I got the gyu harami and spicy butabara to start off. The gyu harami was recommended by the waiter and he didn't miss!! It was so juicy, delectable and savory. The saltiness paired perfectly with every bite. The butabara was also tasty with their spicy seasoning drizzled on every inch. And I topped it off with a tonkotsu ramen. Ngl I thought the ramen was going to be basic but honestly with a likkle sprinkle of chili powder, the flavors were all there!! I thoroughly enjoyed it so much that I finished it all and was still trying to slurp up the broth at the bottom of the bowl. I also got the strawberry mojito. Although it was a very delicious, sweet and refreshing drink...it needed more liquor, I barely tasted anything and it wasn't strong at all. Ordered the wagyu fried rice for my partner to go and they enjoyed it as well. Service was rather friendly and I would love to come back!! read more

The interior is beautiful just like the one in Chantilly--it's like walking in a Japanese alleyway. So many different foods from Yalitpri platters to omelette rice to sushi, it's all pretty well made. I would go for the unagi bowl since that was huge when I went to their chantilly location. Crispy and oily Brussels sprouts which is to be expected in a tempura version of this. The yakitori platter was cool but nothing outstanding flavor wise. The omelette rice is beautiful and good curry flavor. The katsu curry was ok but not amazing. read more
