"Traditional izakayas are generally not glitzy affairs, but rather, come-as-you-are neighborhood retreats for a beer and a bite after a long day. Nomonomo, a Japanese pub and grill from the owners of neighboring sister restaurants Wasabi Ramen and Nomonomo Sushi, evokes a similar feeling with minimalistic design and a menu featuring binchotan-grilled yakitori and kushiyaki, plus comfort foods like soba, udon, and zosui, or Japanese rice soup." - Naomi Waxman, Eater Staff
