Grill your own meats, fish, and veggies on a grill on your table. Awesome scene, always crowded, but worth making a reservation. No reservation: Just sit at the bar, they have an awesome collection of dishes and you'll be in-and-out in under 30 mins if you're in a rush. I felt transported to the little bustling street restaurants of Tokyo!
