Itoko

"We heard the happy hour hype about this spot, so we had to checked it out. We made a reservation since it’s a popular spot. We ordered a couple Nigiri, a couple Maki, two Hand Rolls, Wagyu Fried Rice, and the Burger. Everything was delicious, especially the hand rolls and the fried rice. Highly recommend the fried rice. We had high expectations for the burger, but it was our least favorite. Too greasy. Oil ran out the moment you bit into it. We didn't know the bun was fried. It tasted like a funnel cake. The burger would have been great if they didn’t do extra with stuff with bun. The service was good. We will definitely come back to try other dishes. They have great selections on the happy hour menu."

"Love this cute place. We went for happy hour time which is good options in the menu. We tried many dishes and it all great. Drinks are great too. we have red, white and lynchee martini (signature here). Service was amazing, they are on top of everything. We sat at the bar. Love to go back again."

"We hit up Itoko for Sunday brunch and honestly, we probably could have skipped the last-minute reservation—they had us seated before I could even check my coat. The kitchen is clearly operating on a "speed of light" policy, which would be great if the service didn't feel so wonky. Our appetizers and entrees staged a full-scale "plate pile-up" on our table before the drinks even arrived. Pro tip: avoid the corner of the counter unless you’re looking to be invisible; our server basically disappeared after the food drop and only resurfaced to hand over the check. Now, let’s discuss this "lychee sangria." Can you legally call something a sangria if it has zero wine and exactly one piece of fruit? Regardless of the identity crisis, it was delicious, went down way too easy, and I can see why people go hard on the bottomless offer. The food was a bit of a mixed bag; the deviled eggs were great with a subtle, non-offensive curry, but the seaweed on the rice crackers for the spicy tuna dip was so aggressive it basically bullied the tuna off the plate. If you order the cucumber salad, just know it’s bringing some serious, non-negotiable heat—come prepared. As for the mains, the brunch version of the chicken katsu don was solid, though it was crying out for a bit more sauce. Then there’s the continental egg soufflé. It’s been three days and I’m still waiting for it to cool down to a temperature safe for human consumption, but once it hits 180°C, I’m sure it’ll be a delight. It's massive and filling, and while I skipped the tomato jam on the toast, you do you. Overall, a tasty spot if you don't mind a "blink and you'll miss it" dining pace."
