Are there any other homestyle Japanese restaurants to compare?
Ditto the positive reaction, though perhaps a shade less enthusiastically. Lovely Dining Companion is of Japanese descent and we have visited many times for the low-key atmosphere and home cooking. It’s truly hard not to enjoy yourself here. The food has no pretensions, is well-prepared without being haute cuisine, and given the prices, there’s no reason not to visit repeatedly. We do and will. Concur with mrbarolo’s point about whether it’s a true “destination” place. We live in the ‘hood as well and that undoubtedly affects our thinking. If we were coming from a greater distance, we might not be there as often. Still, for what it is, it’s wonderful.
