Izakaya - Atlantic City

A gentleman came by right away to pour water for us, and he was very attentive throughout our meal. Our server, Dan, was friendly and quick to respond to our needs. As other reviews mentioned, the soup dumplings (suppenknoedel) were indeed delicious. We also tried the crispy rock shrimp, which were very tasty as well. In addition, we sampled the salmon sushi, robatayaki chicken, and soy ginger salmon. The portion sizes were on the smaller side, and the prices felt a bit high for what we received. I also found the shrimp to be a bit pale when fried. While I didn’t enjoy it enough to plan a return visit, I appreciated the atmosphere, service, and some of the dishes. Therefore, I’m giving it a solid rating.

The appetizers were excellent. You must try the wagyu beef cortex; it's fantastic! The Kinki chicken wings are also incredibly delicious and flavorful. The beef short ribs were tender and juicy. However, the shrimp tempura roll was not fresh and had a strange taste, but the staff was very accommodating and took it off the bill. Overall, I would definitely come back here.

We had a wonderful experience! The atmosphere was delightful, the staff were friendly, and the food was incredible! We wished they had checked on us a bit more so we could order additional dishes. The open kitchen was an entertaining touch, and the food was among the best we had during our trip!

My girl took me to birthday dinner and let me tell you that it was not disappointed? service is what they would expect from a restaurant of this quality? eating was amazing to say the least and the ambiente is the icing on the cake! this is an experience for which we will definitely be back! 5? experience

Every aspect of our dinner was EXCELLENT from the service to drinks to dessert. Michael was our server and I would request him again 100 . He was friendly, super attentive, and knowledgeable. His drink recommendations were spot on! I had the Lychee martini. It was not too sweet and just perfect. We opted for the tasting menu. Every bite was delicious. If I had to complain about anything it would be that the courses came out too fast. I prefer a slower dining experience but I understand not everyone feels that way. We asked Michael to slow it down and he was more than happy to accommodate our request. I am a really tough critic especially at this price point . With all the dining options in Atlantic City I would consider this a “must do”.
