I love Rusans. So this is the tapa version of Rusans. Smaller portions, smaller sushi menu, but FULL bar. It's not as loud and overly crowded compared to Rusans. Rusans is great for a huge group. yamazaru is great for small dinner dates/get-togethers. Definitely a must try! I'm not a pork belly fan but their pork belly in their steam bun appetizer and in the ramen is good!! GOOD! Not too thick or thin cut, not too salty, and flavoring is great!
Green curry mussels appetizer is great. Light and refreshing. Curry is NOT thick. And awesome flavoring.
Drinks are great. My favorite is the cucumber basil! So freaking refreshing especially since summer is coming around.
I'm not a ramen expert. BUT...I would say try the Tonkotsu ramen. Only thing I would add is extra spice but that's because I like spicy! Otherwise, it was good. The boiled egg wasn't over cooked. It was medium. That's how I like it! Yum.
I also like their brussel sprouts! I think it's chargrilled? I would ask for it to be crispier but that's how I would prefer it!
They still have the hamachi kama, the infamous seafood fried rice, and some other Rusans favorites on the menu.
I always feel so welcome and at home. Lots of love to Hata and Eric! They ALWAYS take great care of me and whoever I am bring with rather it's here or Rusans.
