Ichigo Ichie is literally down the hall from Yokato Yokobai - this small Japanese bar is located right off of Rachel, and offers a variety of hot and cold appetizers, as well as hot and cod dishes. The hubs and I came early in the evening, and while there was a queue, there wasn't much direction or notification the host. It was really based on an honor system who arrived first, and who should be seated next. I personally enjoyed their homemade yuzu sorbet, as it had pieces of the yuzi rind and it was tangy, sour, citrus-like, and refreshing. Some may opt out of dining at Yokato Yokobai and just walk down the hall to order small plates; however, others may bypass the bar area to just focus on the ramen. Restrooms are located down the narrow small-stepped stairs.
