Izakaya Ju

Seared Tuna Sashimi - could've been sliced thinner imo
Garlic Beef Fried Rice - very flavourful
Gyu Don - Disappointing! Beef was dry and flavorless, no sauce at all! Even the onions couldn't save this rice bowl. I had to mix in the minced pork from the ja ja men for some taste. (Came with miso soup & salad which was good)
Chicken knuckles - Very good, but 熱氣 since it's deep-fried.
Ja ja men - udon with minced pork sauce, poached egg, cucumbers. Pretty flavorful.
Chicken gizzards? We ordered a variety of izakaya - chicken wings, pork belly, pork & leek. All were very flavorful (either salt-based or sauce), but small portions. The tuna sashimi salad was good too - cubes of tuna in some soy-based sauce and onions (not pictured)
A little restaurant in J-town famous for izakaya. Similar to Guu with its small and unique dishes but in a quieter environment. Total came to ~$60 for 2 lunch items (noodles + gyu don), beef rice ($6) and a bunch of side dishes $2-$9).
