The 20 Best Japanese Restaurants in NYC - New York - The Infatuation
"Midtown East has no shortage of excellent izakayas, and Toribar, with its big smoky grill and basement sake den setting, is one of our favorites. It’s especially great if you like to customize your skewers, because you can choose between salt or tare on every bite. Get some chicken thigh with scallions, and smelt stuffed with fish roe, then move on to juicy chicken karaage and teppanyaki to soak up your choice of Japanese draft beer or sake." - will hartman, neha talreja, bryan kim, willa moore
