Izakaya Fujiyama

Izakaya is Japanese for bar-with-food, inviting you to treat this moody little local with a wall of sake bottles and Japanese beer as anything from a drinking-and-snacking spot to a dedicated dining option. Food from smart staff goes from the sought-after – calamari with ‘secret spice’ and yummy mayo – to the esoteric and excellent: uni (sea urchin) sushi or grilled mackerel with pickled slaw and cumquat rings. Exemplary agedashi tofu with shiitakes and okra in a rich broth will set any vego smiling. Daily fresh seafood is the key to all sushi and sashimi choices. With something from that sake list, ideally.
