Was Cody Smith at Izakaya Amu a mag?
They really do a great job at creating an authentic sushi experience. No shoes, tips for proper dining, etc. not for the beginner but “legit af” as the kids say View all feedback.

What Tom Crabtree dislikes about Izakaya Amu:
We visited as a family of four, and our meal took two hours to be served. The service was very slow. The table next to us even had to request their food to go because they were running late. The server was clearly overwhelmed and doing her best, so I don’t hold it against her. However, the manager definitely needs to hire more staff. The food was delicious, but don’t come if you’re very hungry! View all feedback.
