Chris P. • November 3, 2015Coffee, pastry selection and service are great! Not a huge area to stay and work for too long, but doable if you can get a table. Really nice design and finish - great space.

Behrad Eats • October 12, 2016The Sapporo-style Shoyu offers a lot of complexity and depth to its flavor due in part by the sautéed garlic, onions, bean sprouts, and ground pork. Do it big with some extra nitamago and pork belly!

Josh • September 2, 2014The cocktails are the highlight here. No. 7 is solid choice. Get there around 9 on weekends for a seat since it's small and gets crowded fast.
