The "best izakaya in town, and maybe the West Coast" offers yet one more outlet for Portland's super produce. Bowls of udon and ramen are laced with various toppings, and there are 14 different items grilling on the robata, including chicken breast, thigh, liver and heart, as well as the tender chopped-chicken meatball called tsukune. Reviewers love it all, saying "Eight stars. Order everything and anything. It's great," "If it says pork belly, order it," and "Their only-after-10:00 p.m. burger is one of the best ever!" An "amazing sake list" and a late-night menu make it "a favorite with local chefs" after they finish the dinner service.
