The Izakaya

Fun place for a lunch with friends. Food is tasty and well valued.

However, this venue lacks some serious organization. Wine and sake list haven't been updated in years. Took 20 minutes just to try and find something they had. Service looked like a fire drill even though restaurant was only half filled.

Some of our food items were forgotten and others were declared 86ed after waiting.

As long as your expectations are not that high and you like value, this place is for you.

Excellent place for japanese food. Got there near five, it wasn't very busy. Had a friend come into town and she asked me to take her here again. Bring your hunger - portions are generous. They have so many great reviews for a reason.

A preferred spot for quality japanese food. Everyone at our table was glad to be there. The staff was very friendly and attentive. Like a restaurant in Washington I loved.

I've been here several times but it's lost its appeal to me. They seem to be using smaller shrimp for the tempura then they used to and more greasy coating. On my last visit when ordering, I asked the waitress for two simple things. I asked for a fork and an extra dipping sauce. She brought neither when she brought my food. I had to ask again for a fork, I didn't bother asking again for an extra sauce. SMH. Shows me she was not concerned or engaged in good service when she took my order. The place was not busy, so no excuse. I'm usually a pretty big tipper but left the minimum this time. I won't be back, there are two other Japanese restaurants on Freeport so I'll be frequenting those...

Very good food and service.

Place is big and there are tables for any type of family numbers.

It is fast and we'll organized, people running the place are very friendly, food is good and tasty.

There is plenty of room to park.
