    I thought the food was pretty good but I gave it a rating of average, 3 stars because it was expensive for what we received.

    I love Izanami - however I feel the food quality has diminished in the last 6+ months … too much fat in dishes, not the right temp, not sure what happened. That said, I always enjoy being there :)

    Our party of 4 was seated promptly in a spacious, comfortable booth. Two of us had been there many times before, so we opted to let them order lots of dishes to share. Yum! Probably the tenderest, most delicious pork ribs ever, dishes of crab, shrimp, beef on a hot rock, noodles, sashimi, brussels sprouts; too many dishes to count, but every one wonderful. Each server, employee was polite, friendly and observant, seemingly pleased to be there. A winning establishment for sure!

    Had a wonderful birthday night. Sat at bar. Sake sushi excellent. My husband loved his Prix fixe dinner. Only downside is you probably have to drive there. They say Uber not dependable. We tried to hire driver/taxi service but it was $70 round trip.
