"This modern izakaya in Wedgewood Houston features Japanese-inspired dishes like Hokkaido scallop, bbq’d octopus, Iberico pork katsu and squid ink noodles, and a deep sake list that includes proprietary bottles brewed by the team here. Round out your splurge-worthy lunch or dinner experience with a miso white sesame soft serve, or another rotating specialty flavor. On Friday and Saturday nights, you can book one of two seatings for the omakase experience: a 14-course tasting presented by chef Ryan Costanza at a six-seat bar paired with wine and sake curated by partner Rick Margaritov." - Kellie Walton, Bailee Mulder
