"Local Basqueland beer is one of Spain’s most awarded craft beers, and the brewery was started by two Americans who missed drinking great IPAs. In 2020, Izakaia opened as a beer-forward snack bar with the same raison d’etre—all while creating a spot with good energy, killer ramen, and beer to match. The bar is open every day until after midnight, with a rotating selection of their latest beers, a menu of Japanese fusion dishes, and even natural wines. This is ramen you should never pass on, and the spicy, meaty soup pairs surprisingly well with their cult classic Santa Clara lager." - Marti Buckley
