Ben MorrowApril 4, 2018The omakase chef's choice menu was delightful. Everything we had was very good. Probably the best place around to try different sakes (there's an optional add-on sake tasting with the omakase, too).Upvoted Jan 6
Porter MasonApril 28, 2017The whole tasting menu was great. The chicken meatballs, gyoza, Boris and the pickles were all great. And a beautiful view!

Kim AhearnFebruary 20, 2024You know when it's so good you do a happy dance on your seat?! Amazing: pork ribs, miso sea bass, black noodles. Meh: gyoza w mole. Great service & atmosphere. Lovely ✨
Tricia BeanMay 22, 2021LOVE Izanami! Mary Beth was our server. Loved her care, friendliness and suggestions. She's a gem! The food (lobster tempura, croquettes, fries, tuna tacos) and sake flights were outstanding.- Odile RoujolAugust 7, 2020Lobster 🦞 ramen, Wagyu beef, sesam panacota, best sake in the Us 🇯🇵 . You won’t forget the experience in a beautiful patio ( covid safe )
richard sheppardApril 16, 2016Delightful and calming ,, the staff is super cool and relaxed,, most everything is fermented and delicious ,, save room for green tea ice cream,, oh yeah the over pour saki for dessert was fun
Washington PostMarch 30, 2014Tired of Brussels sprouts? Izanami frys the petals to a frizz and tossing the crunch with mint, lemon zest, chilies and puffed rice. A seat at the counter lets diners watch their meal being made. Read more
YueboFebruary 13, 2018It's inside and associated with Ten Thousand Waves. It's on OpenTable. A bit pricy, but good food. And you can wear your Yukata to eat there inbetween your SPAs:D
Andrew GaldiJanuary 12, 2017Really great Japanese food. You can wear your kimono from the spa to the restaurant which is fun. Good sake selection as well
Mark PriceJanuary 19, 2014Awesome food--best I've had outside of Japan! Get a table next to the windows with a mountain view!
Excellent food and vibe in this custom made building. Check out the wooden beams from Japan.
Prins PoloNovember 1, 2021Decent food, although rice and veg arrived only after I finished my steak (which was overcooked). Beautiful setting.
Brendan CurranJanuary 1, 2018Food was solid, but certainly fell short of expectations considering the James Beard nomination and the price. Service was interminably slow (first course arrived one hour after reservation).

"We stayed here for two nights this time - Luna and high moon. Super relax. Enjoyed the private hot tub as well."

"Definitely plan to spend several hours here. Even after multiple visits I'm still discovering new things. The attention to detail is amazing and you can interact with nearly every part of the exhibit."
