Itsumono

This Japanese gastropub is boarded up, so it looks closed—but we're glad to report that it is very much open for business. In fact, it's even open until 1:30am on the weekends.

At Itsumono, you'll find a relaxed space that has everything from Iron Chef to New Girl playing on TV. You'll also find a short menu of mash-ups like tonkatsu tikka masala, loco moco scotch eggs, cheesy dungeness crab arancini doria, and miso soup risotto, as well as a $100 tasting menu option if you reserve a table at least 24 hours in advance. Use this place for a first date alongside drinks and tots, and if things go well, order more food. If things go extremely well, invite us to your wedding.
