Brighter lighting than the other izakayas I've been to. Apparently all the guus have been changed to kinka izakaya. Very loud environment that may take some time to get used to if it's your first time here!
We were a party of 3 on a Saturday night. Didn't think we needed to make a reservation, but the place was packed and waited about an hour. That was okay, and we were seated at the bar area. I liked it actually, being able to see the food being made, which then they would hand right over to us.
The eel hot pot dish was the highlight of the evening! We also ordered karaage (fried chicken), takoyaki, tataki and a scallop dish (I forget the name). Great food and service here, despite it being so busy.
Next time, I'll remember to make a reservation.
