  • If you have foodie-enemies distract them with Lotus of Siam so that we can save the tables at Raku for all the nice people. It's a small place, and I want to make sure only the nicest people are preventing me from sitting down! I ate at Raku for probably the sixth time last night, and while I do not partake in the fanciest of the offerings there, i.e. live uni udon, I still love it. I would say the majority of the menu is Japanese-style skewers, so there are lots of tasty meats on sticks, which might sound less than stellar, but each skewer is of the highest quality and prepared with the tenderest attention to detail. I am happy with my asparagus on a stick and the "Yummy Miso Soup". (That is what they call it, and it is indeed the yummiest miso I have ever slurped!) I even love the Popeye Salad-- a spinach salad with a warm dressing, mushrooms and little fried onions. And, I drink the iced roasted green tea by the bucketful. The tofu was better last night than on my previous visits. We had half cold and half hot, and both were wonderful. We were also treated to some super rare sake. Our waitress told us that you can not even buy this particular sake in Japan, so when Japanese people come to the restaurant, they are astonished and drink plenty of it! Oh, and we had the sorbets for dessert, and they were super sweet and refreshing. When summertime comes, I could imagine eating a gallon of the pomegranate. I love the coziness of the space. You feel like you could just linger at the table forever, but we try not to. The bathroom is incredible. (Just check it out.) The servers are very charming, especially when they come over with the specials board and explain them all. Sometimes their Japanese accent prevents me from understanding everything, but I really don't mind because it is delivered with such care and pride. Do beware of the board as sometimes things on the board are more expensive than you might think. For example, one evening we ordered some unagi, and it was $30 for a rather small portion. Still overall, I think the prices are reasonable. The entire restaurant, from the painting of the walls to the salts on the table, are hand prepared by the chef. With such attention to detail and passion, you feel loved when you eat at Raku, and everyone wants to be loved. I wish I could give it 5 hearts, but the stars will do.
