Have never been for…read moredinner so can only speak for the lunch vibe, but I have found the service to be great and the lighting is nice because there are floor to ceiling windows. The menu is pretty diverse with various appetizers, sushi, and also ramen/curry so your standard izakaya fare. One of my favorite dishes here has been the chirashi. The fish was very fresh and it's pretty affordable. I've only ever been here in groups of two and I probably would recommend it for smaller groups because the space itself is small and most of the tables are two-seaters if I recall correctly.

When we got there our table was ready and the waitress was quick to take our order. The food came out in a reasonable amount of time too. We really loved everything we ate and the drinks were great too. I got the sparkling basil lemonade and I was so glad that it wasn't overly sugary. It was perfect to pair with the food we were eating. I would highly recommend ordering the pasta, the Japanese tacos, and the tuna crispy rice! I don't live super close to this restaurant but I will definitely be coming back!

Confused why this place hasn't been listed on Yelp yet. I personally come here for small snacks and…read moreappetizers and I'd like to say that I do enjoy most of the items they have in this bakery. They also sell a variety of Onigiris, which I'd say is one of the more considerate items; they allow you to buy a full size or half size. I enjoy the option of buying half an onigiri or a full size. The workers are very calm in their tone which honestly helps me calm down and relax at times when I am overwhelmed with my workload. The store seems to be organized in a way where everything is visibly noticeable and you won't have trouble looking for a specific item. The bakery itself typically has a handful of people always here during lunch time and it seems like a nice area to get away for lunch.

The menu offers classic Japanese cuisine with some unique offerings. Love that their menu is packed with photos. The service is friendly and warm. I was welcomed the moment I walked in, and the service stayed attentive and efficient throughout my stay. I decided on the pork katsu rice bowl. The pork cutlet was crispy yet tender. Everything tasted noticeably fresh. It was served over rice with caramelized onions and an egg. The flavors were sweet, tangy, and umami. Portions are decent too - I left with leftovers. Overall, good food and service. Oh! They serve their plum wine in the cutest carafe.

The two slabs of chashu were comically large, each bigger than a slice of thick-slab bacon and tender, fatty. There were lots of bamboo shoots and crunchy black-squiggly seaweed too so that turned my bowl pretty crunchy. This can be a benefit for some (the value is undeniable), but I found it inharmonious. Ah well, the noodles and broth were still tasty. I was surprised by a free appetizer during weekday lunch hours; I chose fried veggie dumplings. They're really committed to decorating the space; it was replete with pillows, hung seasonal door decor, window decals, and more. It felt very spacious, but maybe I'm too used to Manhattan standards. As mentioned, really kind and attentive service.

Two thumbs all the way up!

It's nonfussy, and although not the cheapest sushi, it's definitely not super expensive/omakase level. It's a small space with a giant bar for seating and maybe a few tables - the owners are definitely passionate about Japanese cuisine and you can definitely feel that as you chat with them a bit. The menu is small, but dedicated to quality, and you will make your choice quite quickly. All the fish was fresh, large pieces, and really really clean tasting. The soup was delightful and paired wonderfully and everything was presented quite nicely. The grilled fish was also tasty and really tender.

The service was good. The server gave us her recommendations for cocktails when she saw us struggling to decide. My friend got the Sumire Fizz and I got the Caipisake.

We also ordered chicken karaage (paired with a slice of lemon and a side of sauce), the crazy tuna, and the toro trio. Our favorite was the crazy tuna. The fish were all fresh and would defs come back here again if we're in the area in the future. Highly recommend the Caipisake and the crazy tuna!

The meat is just absolutely perfect...melt in your mouth, moderately seasoned and delicate enough to put it all together with the noodles. The establishment is a bit smaller so it is recommended to get a reservation beforehand. But walkins are also welcomed I suppose.

The ramen was everything you want in a bowl -- a hearty, beef bone marrow broth with layers of flavor, bouncy chewy noodles, and an egg cooked perfectly. The short rib inside was extremely tender, and the toppings of fried garlic, green onions, and wood ear mushrooms added even more depth. The saba (miso-braised mackerel) was another highlight: extremely tender and moist, probably the best-prepared mackerel I've had, with a miso sauce that complemented it perfectly. The saikoro steak came as chunky, tender bites with a soy-vinegar garlic sauce that tied it all together beautifully. And the cucumber starter was cold, refreshing, and carried a nice spicy kick. Za-Ya nails Japanese comfort food with care and balance. The ramen and saba alone are worth the trip, and the sides round out a very satisfying meal.
