(Chicago) Izakaya Sankyu


1176 S Elmhurst Rd
Mt Prospect, IL 60056
(847) 228-5539

An izakaya is a type of Japanese drinking establishment which also serves food to accompany the drinks, much like Tapas. They are casual and relatively cheap places for after-work drinking in Japan, and it's getting popular in U.S.

Izakaya Sankyu is an Izakaya with Super-authentic Japanese food and ambience. The most of the signs and the specials board are written in Japanese, but don't be overwhelmed. Waiting staffs can tell you what they are. The menu is extensive, so you can try foods you never seen before.

As you see in the picture, besides regular tables, they have zashiki-style which you sit on the floor and dine.
