This is a really cool Izakaya that we came across after a festival that has really good food and drinks. It feels like a Tokyo alley way with different rooms for different groups of people. They can accommodate a large group of people where you can feel a little privacy from the main area. As far as food, this is pretty standard as far as Izakaya, but the main thing I say is truly worth it is the Tuna Trio Roll. Definitely worth it. We ordered some other items but I'd say that's the best roll you can get. We also ordered the Sushi Dragon Balls which is a fun looking dish. Just regular in my opinion. This place provides a great vibe with drinks and a bunch of Japanese izakaya food. It also provides a great vibe at the bar area as well.

Came here to celebrate my friend's birthday, and I'm actually amazed by how late this place opens. Ambience was great - we were seated in a semi-private booth where you had to step down in order to sit in the hole-like space that the table was in. I ordered the sweet heart roll which was served in heart shapes - super cute! For someone who loves shrimp tempura rolls, this was an elevated version of that and really delicious. And even though it didn't look like it came with many rolls, it was really filling.

I took my son here after Church for lunch. I wanted to find an anime inspired place for him. He loved the decor. Let's talk about those call buttons: WHY doesn't most restaurants do this?!?? We both were happy with the bell to just press when we were ready to order instead of a waiter disappearing and you having to flag them down. And they come pretty quick. We didn't want to be rude so we only used it twice. Food: The food was delicious. Everything was delicious and well prepared but are dessert people and we'd go back for that crepe mango cake!!!! Talk about delicious and melt in your mouth. Loved it Everything else was good but that's just our jam

I'd meaning to visit this Japanese spot for a long time and happy to be able to visit it today. We were booked for 3 people at 1 pm and was accommodated with no issue when we showed up 15 minutes early and with an additional person. We loved the ambiance right away when we were seated. We mentioned that it's our first time and the staff said that we are welcome to browse rest of the place at our convenience. Placing the order is so easy , staff is so endearing and friendly. There is a call bell when in need of any. Food served in no time. They just opened the business at noon for the day and lucky to be the first of their guests list. We ordered their yakitori platter and signature sampler being our first time here. In addition we had ramen , miso soup and eel/cucumber roll with it. It was such an interesting combination! We enjoyed both the samplers. We definitely know what we would be our pick for next visit. All our order was aesthetically pretty. Instagram worthy. Food taste met our expectations. The ambiance of the place is vibing. Decorations are pleasing. The private room and service are phenomenal. We had a great dining experience! There is great perk after spending more than a $100, a raffle for free food or drinks to be consumed on next visit. A great spot to be ! Come by.

Went to such a cool place for dinner and tried some of their dishes. The yakitori platter is a sample selection of all their skewers, which were all pretty good. The okonomiyaki was similar to a vegetarian fried pancake, which I enjoyed besides the bonito flakes on top which made it a bit dry. The cream udon was really good, not sure how to explain the flavors but I would definitely order it again. The interior is really cool and gives the vibes of tokyo, japan with all the decoration they have. There is also a huge bar for those who would like to come just for drinks. The service is really fast and attentive. My waitress was really keen on picking up any empty plates or trash we had at the table which was nice.

They do Izakaya WELL! The drinks specials are abundant. The vibe is transformative. The restaurant appears to be sectioned off by individual rooms. All with its own unique design. You press the call button for the wait staff who comes quickly. The food was nothing short of fresh. And cooked to perfection. Whether its land, sea, or both they have every dish covered. The oyster shooters was decadent. The yakitori was flavored really well. And the Sushi was fresh. Can't wait to come here and bring more people. I wouldn't want to gate keep such an awesome restaurant.

My favorite dishes were the ika geso kara-age, the oden, and the fruit nana lemonade. I highly recommend the lemonade if you're looking for something refreshing. It's honestly less like lemonade and more like a lychee type drink. All the other dishes were fairly average. I really loved the ambiance of the restaurant and the fact that the booths are fairly private.

Hako sushi
Samuel C.

A beautifully decorated restaurant with mediocre food. The decor is well done. We ordered the hako sushi, tonkotsu ramen and impossible unadon. The fish used for the sushi was average quality for the price. The ramen was bland. The unagi don was great. They gave a large portion and was tasty. Service was good.

Impossible Unadon
Ruby C.

I've been quite obsessed with una-tama don lately, so I made the trip to Izakaya Nana just for this. The giant piece of grilled eel definitely lived up to my expectation. The unagi was so massive it barely fit on the bowl... The japanese street style decor and private dining booths make it feel super immersive, and even the restrooms are covered in Demon Slayer and anime posters. *Impossible Unadon $34.99 ** The bowl was topped with a giant piece of unagi and tamago over rice. It had a charcoal-grilled aroma, crispy caramelized edges, and a buttery center. The sauce was so delicious with white rice. If I had to be picky, I would've loved a fluffy dashi tamagoyaki instead of the simple tamago. *Kaki Fry $8.99 * Crispy on the outside, juicy and briny on the inside. It was so yummy dipping into the tonkatsu sauce. *Hako Sushi $21.99 The last time I had hako (pressed) sushi was in Osaka, so I was excited to see it here. Each piece was beautifully presented like a tiny jewel, topped with colorful fish roe. The rice part was dry and dense though. *Yakitori platter $26.99 You can't go to an izakaya and not order skewers, so we got the 7-skewer platter. The beef skirt, pork belly, king oyster mushroom, and zucchini were the standouts. The chicken tender and chicken wing were a bit dry though.

1 meter platter
Serena C.

Yummy food! I recommend getting the hamachi Kama and the dragon balls! The 1 meter platter was also a decadent experience and was the perfect amount for the four of us. While it is a little pricey, it was a cool experience that I'm glad I tried. Fast service and there is a button from your table to notify servers. Ambiance is comfortable and the whole restaurant is beautifully decorated. It's is quite private in the seating rooms. The bar area is beautiful. I took a min to just appreciate the bar area decor and lighting.

This place is a phenomenal izakaya that offers everything - ambiance and food. The ambiance certainly is sensory overload. I don't think I've ever been to a place that looks like it came out of what anyone would conventionally think would be the stereotypical streets of Japan. The food options were great -- I really enjoyed the abundance of sushi and non-sushi options. The only downside was that we had a server drop a dish which led to a delay in getting our dish and the check. They did offer free dessert but it was one of those running-the-meter situations. Nevertheless, I'll be back and I'll certainly pick a couple new options off the menu (and make sure to put enough in the meter)!

This Japanese spot is a visually stunning, highly immersive Japanese izakaya known for its extraordinary Tokyo-alley vibe, themed private rooms, and satisfactory shared plates. It features stunning ambiance alongside moderately pricey food that generally satisfies groups looking for an enjoyable night out. The vibe is bustling and energetic. Their high ceilings and an indoor village layout mirror Tokyo's nightlife with lanterns and a bar under a golden tree. They have a number of rooms like the Comic, Tatami, Sauna, Geisha and Ninja rooms offer fun, semi-private compartments. They offer an extensive sake selections, beer towers, and themed cocktails like lychee martinis or passion margaritas. Giant unadon, Yakitori platters, pork jowl skewers, spicy BBQ karaage chicken, sushi dragon balls, raw oysters with uni, tonkatsu ramen and takoyaki are a favorite and receive high points from costumers for flavor and freshness. Their staff service is friendly, attentive, and welcoming. I noted that the team provides personalized hospitality and quick assistance, even using call buttons at tables for fast service. Expect to spend around $30-$50 per person depending on alcohol and number of small plates ordered. Portions are good for sharing, though some find it a bit costly for what it is. It certainly is a unique food experience coming to this food spot.

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.

Ask the Community - Izakaya Nana

Do they have parking?

No parking. So come early to scout for a spot. Took us awhile to finally find a spot and it was 2 blocks away.

Do you have Non-Alcoholic Beer options, or mock tails?

Yes for mocktails. You can get a free one with a Yelp check-in. This was true when I went back in Nov '23.

Do you take american express?

Yes they do

Do we have to pay for the private room and if so how much?

No, you don't need. But recommend to make a reservation for it

Is there a happy hour from what time?

From 10pm to 1AM

Is reservation optional or must?

Not a must, but highly recommended or you will have to wait a while.

Do the restaurant have parking?

No it doesn't. Street parking at best and you need to watch the times posted as when you can or can not park. There is a small private parking lot in the block east of the restaurant entrance but there is no affiliation. Do not try and park in… 

What is parking like?

You can park in front at the meters on the street and at night they have an arrangement with the garage for a mechanic next door so you can park there after they are closed

Can i bring my nephew here? He is 8 years old

Absolutely! He will love it. They have a claw machine in the waiting area and the presentation of the food is really enjoyable that he would be impressed. He may even develop a liking for Japanese food/cuisine/culture.…

But at last, as I searched on DoorDash I stumbled upon this glorious restaurant they call Izakaya Fuku. I was drawn to the adorable names for their sushi roll dishes like "Strawberry Fields" and their Italian Japanese fusion pasta dishes, "Creamy Mentaiko Bacon Pasta" with creamy mayonnaise, spicy cod roe and bacon like are you kidding me? It's a bummer I wasn't more hunger or that I didn't have more bucks in my wallet because I wanted all these dishes. And the Chirashi Don, god it looks so beautiful the way that it's arranged in the photos online. I finally decided on the carbonara. And I was drawn to the fact that it was udon based. Now, I've just been living in hawaii these past years so that Japanese twist on an Italian dish that I just love oh so much really brought me back to missing the islands and the Asian spins they had on cuisines. Now my food may have not come in a jiffy but for after midnight cravings I'd say it was well worth the wait. And my oh my the portion was huge!!!! I slurped that big boy up. It was SOOO delicious and savory. I love comfort food and this had me in carbonara heaven. I loved indulging into every single last bite. By the looks of the picture the restaurant looks lovely, I'd love to stop there and try it in person. Thank you. Thank you! My belly and my heart are very much satisfied.

Their reservations also book up quickly. I made my reservation a week before. We were seated in one of their booths which was cute, comfy, cozy, and clean. It was just my husband and i. They have good happy hour deals, but I don't remember how many dishes we ordered were on HH. We got the tako wasa, chicken karaage, kibinago, and mentaiko pasta. All were great! All my favorites and perfect for a quick dinner. Their menu is pretty extensive -- I wished we had more time to order a bunch of other dishes. Good portions for sharing. We were surprised we had some leftovers. Definitely a good spot for groups to order a bunch of tapas and mains. Service was good and the food and drinks came out within good timing. We'll definitely have to go another time when we're in the area with some friends and order a lot more. Can't wait to return.

I started off with the Hotate Carpaccio ($18) - these Hokkaido scallops tasted fresh and delicious. The ikura (salmon roe) on top was a nice addition. For my main course, I got the Unagi Don ($34) - this was also very good, although nothing too out of the ordinary. I thought the price was slightly on the higher end. The portion size for this (and in general) is not particularly large, but still fine. The restaurant interior is quite narrow, which leads to a lively atmosphere that can get a bit noisy at times, though not too bad. It's decorated in a classic Japanese restaurant style with booth seating as well as bar seating. I was able to get a walk-in table on a Saturday night after just a brief ~15 min wait. The staff are friendly and the service speed is quick. Overall, I think Sozai is a great option for quality Japanese food in Midtown if you are craving any type of Japanese cuisine.
