More like a 4.5, I reallllllly love this place. It's not fair to compare this Izakaya to places like Guu though, cause it has more of a laid back quiet vibe to it. So for haters of Guu who can't stand being yelled at as they enter & leave, this is the place for you. I also find that it's easier to get a more filling meal here. My bf and I ordered the:
osaka style fried rice (awesomeness)
yakitori combo (much better deal than ordering it individually, large portions per skewer and very yummy
sake mussels (good sized mussels, avg quality, good for winter cause there's broth)
spicy pork belly (not spicy at all. still good, cause its pork belly)
and the meat stuffed chicken wings (come on. its meat stuffed in a wing then fried. no one can mess that up! part of yakitori combo I believe)
Overall I really enjoyed my time here and I regret not trying the burgers that everyone talks about! Will surely return to try more from the menu.
**sidenote: servers here also seem to have better english here than guu for anyone who cares.
