The sushi restruant in San Jose-- IZAKA-YA
π IZAKA-YA, San Jose πΆA small Japanese tavern located near the airport. When craving Japanese cuisine, this place comes to mind, offering a variety of dishes including small plates, yakitori (grilled chicken skewers), noodles, and rice dishes. The restaurant is not large but attracts a good number of customers, so it's best to make a reservation in advance. It's possible to wait for more than half an hour during peak dining hours. The space is a bit cramped and can feel chaotic. π Sushi Boat B $69.95 Comes with 16 pieces of Nigiri, 11 slices of Sashimi, 6 pieces of California Roll, and 6 pieces of Tuna Roll. Sitting at the bar, you can watch the chef slice the fish, which is generously portioned. The eel and sweet shrimp are particularly enjoyable, making it worth the price. π Okonomiyaki $15.5 π Okonomiyaki topped with dancing bonito flakes, featuring plenty of cabbage and chunks of octopus. π Tempura Cold Soba $11.95 π Cold soba noodles served with a dipping sauce, the light soy sauce-based broth is refreshing. Dip a strand of cold soba into the sauce for a perfect summer dish. In winter, opt for a hot udon noodle soup. It comes with five pieces of tempura and two crispy fried shrimp heads. 1335 N 1st St, San Jose, CA 95112 #San Jose#IZAKA-YA#sushi#food diary
