Best Japanese Speciality Restaurants in Bushwick

I have been here like half a dozen times and every time I always get excited to come back. However this time I felt like something was missing and lacking. They raised the price but everything was still the same. The service was still very good but for some reason I felt like it wasn’t as good and as fun as it used to be. The food didn’t taste as amazing, maybe because they were all the same as before so it didn’t surprise me anymore. I felt a bit rushed for each course, maybe because there were not many people at the dinner. Still, the hosts should have found the way to entertain the guests in order to keep up the reputation of the restaurant. Though I and my party were having good time among ourselves, I just thought that it would have been better if things were different. I also thought that they should change the menu more often to keep regular customers coming back and still be able to have fun.

The Plant Based Set is ABSOLUTELY DELICIOUS! Every morsel will take your taste buds on the most beautiful journey!

I’ve been going to Yopparai for nearly fifteen years. It’s a perfect combination of both familiar and inventive izakaya food — with, of course, great pairings of sake, shochu, and other beverages. The staff, chefs, and owners are always attentive and go the extra mile. Excited to see an old favorite still going strong!

Great, small restaurant that’s chef owned. Authentic, yet creative menu. Nice atmosphere. Definitely sit at the sushi bar and watch the magic happen.
