Review by Mallory Mayert

September 03, 2024

Dan Izakaya Restaurant is a cozy gem nestled in The Plaza Shopping Center. 🌟 On both visits, I was impressed by the quick service and inviting atmosphere.

During lunch, I savored the Aburi salmon carpaccio and deluxe meshi, the crispy rice pot filled with tender salmon and delightful toppings - it’s an absolute must-try! My kids loved their chicken karaage, and the bento box offered a great variety.

Sure, the garlic steak don was a bit heavy on butter, but overall, the quality of the dishes shines through. Just remember to make a reservation for dinner to avoid a long wait! 🍣✨
