🏮 Edmonton's Irresistible Izakaya - Tomo Review
For those craving Japanese pub vibes, this longtime local favorite delivers with atmospheric charm and fusion flavors that please both Eastern and Western palates. 📍 Izakaya Tomo 3739 99 St NW, Edmonton 💰 ~$50/person 🍶 The Vibe Deep walnut tones and sake bottle decor create an authentic izakaya atmosphere - perfect for: • Late-night drinks with friends • Casual date nights • Small group gatherings 🍢 Must-Try Dishes Melanie Roll 🍣 The ultimate East-meets-West sushi: • Cooked ingredients • Creamy texture • Mild flavors (perfect for non-sushi eaters!) Beef Tataki (per teammate) "Fresh with perfect sear" 🍗 For First-Timers Since we brought kids, we focused on: • Crispy karaage • Tempura • Other cooked items (Sashimi review coming next visit!) Why It Stands Out: 1️⃣ Western-friendly twists on classics 2️⃣ Extensive sake/shochu selection 3️⃣ Cozy "Tomo" (friendship) atmosphere #YEGIzakaya #EdmontonEats #JapaneseFusion #DateNightIdeas #FoodieFind
