| - Came here finally on my recommendation from a friend who is from Japan to come check it out....and also, because I probably pass here all the time and wanted to see how this place is since I love Japanese food.
On this day, I was a mood eater. I wanted to eat italian but, yet I wanted to eat japanese food..hahahahaha! Couldn't make up my mind, it's bad being a mood eater sometimes!
As we were driving in we saw this cute little bar area on the opposite of the restaurant and had no idea it is connected to Zu Izakaya until after we went into the restaurant.
Our host/waitress were really nice and talkative, she so funny I have a strong hawaiian pidgin accent so it's not hard to know that we are not from AZ and she picked up on it and asked "Are you guys from Hawaii?" we crack up laughing and I said yes, but now we live here. She knows the struggle we have sometimes with finding really good asian foodies here in AZ. So it was nice to just have the conversation with her and just connect.
Our food selection though it wasn't that bad at all...Everything that we had was super tasty and get this, I was surprised that they had a half pasta/udon dish that I never heard of and I just had to ask our waitress 'So, how is this?" lol, She had told me that before their restaurant it used to be an italian place and their head chef had stayed on..she said that dish was super good and that I should try it. I am so glad that I did, I had exactly what I was craving for - how ironically funny! "ASK AND I SHALL RECEIVE" hahahahah....
Their dynamite scallops was good as well as their tofu, it was refreshing and fulfilling at the same time for appetizer selection. I don't think the dynamite selection was an appetizer though- but, still good to go!
I love their sake special it really hit the spot although we missed the happy hour was still good!
However, the waitress did tell us that their bar area (the one I mentioned earlier of the little bar on the opposite side of the building). She said it is happy hour ALL day in their bar area but, it is not connected from inside of the restaurant. So next time we come back, we'll go inside the bar area and they also have karaoke. Great place to bring my Ohana when they are in town...We love good food, drinks, and singing when we are merry/having a good time - PAU HANA time!
Ohh and there fried cheesecake dessert was winnaz....gotta sample it if they have it on their menu or specials
