| - I dropped by here last week for a drink and noticed a nice area upstairs that could possibly accommodate my group of friends (20+ people) for my birthday the weekend after. After a quick phone call, it was arranged with no minimum spending, deposit, etc. They even told us we can bring a usb key when we asked if we could play our own music.
So the staff said the long communal table can sit maybe around 16-18 people, with a couch on side, but of course we didn't have enough seats. The waitresses kindly brought out more stools, and although it wasn't enough, the private area upstairs allowed people to get up and walk around, or even chat by the bar (yes there's a separate bar where you can watch the chef work on our food directly in front of us).
So it was my birthday and I remember the drinks only :) Although it's a sake bar, their soju mixed drinks were great, they have a small tap selection (pitcher of Sapporo for $18, but a bottle of Keiths and etc for $4) and if you prefer vodka or whiskey, they have it all.
My friends seemed to enjoy all the tapas-styled menu and it was a good mix of Korean and Japanese food. I tried the spicy chicken with cheese on a hot plate and that was actually spicy but delicious.
I can't say enough thing about the friendly staff there. Although they had to make numerous trips up and down the steep flight of stairs to our area, they were very attentive to take our orders and deliver our food and drinks.
I highly recommend this place for a group gathering or even a just a random night out.
