Review by Marquis

Izakaya Minato captures the essence of modern Japanese dining with a twist. The omakase is a must-try; their miso oysters are simply unforgettable! I also enjoyed the crab salad, which was both fresh and flavorful. The ambiance is cozy yet trendy, perfect for a relaxed evening with friends. Be mindful of the smaller plates - ideal for sampling but not always shareable. Reservations are a smart move, especially as it fills up quickly! Don’t miss their great selection of teas... 🍵
