Fodor's Expert Review Pabu Izakaya

This energetic Japanese dining venue (part of Michael Mina's high-powered group) is a sleek, wonderful place that hosts both date nights and business deals at its tables and cocktail bar. The substantial menu can be overwhelming, so it's best to just graze around the sushi rolls, robata grill items, and a few small and large plates like homemade pork gyoza and miso yaki black cod.
