I'm a bit ambivalent to Local Izakaya. It is really good and the service is great but it is not possible to assess on the basis of what is said to be an Izakaya. Now, I myself have not been in Japan (yet) but my Japan-savvy societies were United in that this is not an Izakaya but that locals decided is an Izakaya. I'm thinking that it must be based on the experience I now known as Izakaya behind me so long, but now you know.
When the Lemon Bar would rebuild and start a restaurant so I was curious. Since started pictures leak out and I raised eyebrows. It looked nice out!
When the Queen of Yelp Socials, Catherine J booked a table with the theme of "Hot & Fresh" so I took the chance to test. The venue is located around the corner from Kungsholms Square and are large, airy and stylish. It is black, clean, beautiful flower arrangements at the Windows and the art behind the bar is worth a drink in the bar. In one part of the room sits a large bookcase and behind the bar finn as a hidden table. Perfect to sit at if one wants to cuddle and talk undisturbed.
We were placed at a round table and ordered drinks. I took Don Yuzu with tequila, St. Germain, yuzu sake, Lemongrass, sugar and champagne. I like the spritiga flavorful drinks so it was exactly what I wanted. Beautifully served in Crystal glasses with an edible (but bitter) flower.
The menu is both between dishes, sushi and warm dishes. I shared a small sashimi, 10 bit maki with white asparagus and tartar as between right. It was just right for the two of you, just like us, förätit currywurst and drinking beer. With that said, there may be needed more to eat than what we ate. Sashimin were salmon, tuna, and walleye. It was good except that the fish tasted a bit too fiskigt. Makin was fantastic with the springy asparagus and creamy avocado. The Tartar was the bar but almost too small pieces to eat with chopsticks as I dared me to fork.
For dessert, I took the drink Flamingo Smash with Lillet rosé, lime, strawberry, pepper sugar and champagne, completely incredibly good!
The service was sweet and charming. She could tap menu and answered all questions. It was a beer she couldn't as she easily apologized and took out more.
The company I was with made this evening for a five-star. You would have liked to be a fly on the wall as we talked about everything from blue body parts to how a date begins. Everything in between will I keep for myself.
I will definitely go back and sit at the bar and drink cocktails and eat sushi because it feels most prsivärt. The bartenders here are stars, and the drinks are not more expensive than anywhere else. Kungsholmen starts shaping up!
