Lively cocktail-first spot with a solid, affordable Japanese menu, great rooftop and jazz nights; best for drinks and casual bites rather than purist ramen or high-end sushi.

Best enjoyed as a cocktail-forward social venue rather than a destination for Japanese cuisine alone.
One caveat: Ramen broth sometimes lacks depth; some noodle dishes reported greasy or oversalted
