| - Although the food is delicious, whenever the first plate of skewers shows up at the table, I can't help but think, "That's way smaller than it looks on the menu!" I guess quality food comes at a price but did they have to photograph it in macro mode or whatever they did to make everything look so big and juicy in those drool-worthy menu photos?
Anyway, skewer size aside, I pretty much enjoy any of their meats with salt on top, but I find teriyaki too sweet. I like how you can get some innards here too, like chicken gizzards. The sashimi dishes are good too, big chunks of fish and seems high quality to me. But the dishes that stand out are the ones that feature ingredients you can't find anywhere else! And that's the great thing about Zakkushi...you get to try a bit of everything! The drink menu always has interesting sounding choices on it, but I haven't tried much off there.
Overall, I think Zakkushi is a must-try izakaya, but I find I've been leaving either a) With a reasonably priced bill but not super stuffed or b) Super happy and full, but feeling like my wallet is a lot lighter than when I came in. Maybe the solution is, I should drink more and eat less.
