Decided to check out the kinkalicious tasting menu which I thought was a "winterlicious" special for $29/person but it seemed like this course is offered all the time since I found it while looking at the regular menu.
It came with 8 courses, and definitely filling. The gomaee (blanched rapini and sesame sauce) and salmon tataki came out first - which both were my fav menu items of the night. The salmon was seared to perfection and the sesame sauce complimented well with the rapini. Next came the karaage and the short ribs. The pieces or karaage were massive and probably the best I've tried from all izakaya places. The short ribs were meh. The seaweed salad came next, which I wish it actually came at the beginning. The kakimayo and bibimbap tasted very similar, but was too cheesy and heavy for my liking. I barely ate any of the bibimbap because I was already so full. I also kind of wish the rice came a little earlier instead of the end.
They offered 2 choices for ice cream - matcha and black sesame. Prescooped.
Make sure you make reservations - you can do this via yelp! The service was pretty good considering how busy it was.
