What reviewers say about Bar Oni Izakaya

An Phama year ago

Cozy, hole-in-the-wall atmosphere, going for a traditional Japanese vibe crossed with a sports bar with some hanging lanterns and mounted TVs. The service was great, and the waiter/bartender was very kind and attentive! My friend and I got the Omakase for two (12 pc Veggie and Meat Skewers), and it happened to be steamed bun night, so we tried that, too. I also got the Plum Press cocktail. The drink was great, and honestly I barely tasted the sake in it. The steamed buns were decent, but I wasn't a huge fan - the sausages were probably the best part. For the skewers - my favorites were probably the mushrooms, the pineapple, and the potatoes for the non-meat ones. And for the meat ones - the pork and the chicken ones were probably the tastiest. Overall, a good experience, and I'm glad I checked it out. It was, however, a tad pricey.

One of the best restaurants I've ever been to. I still think about the purple sweet potato, a few years later. Great ambiance, cocktails, friendly staff, and fun games to play.

Fantastic birthday celebration with friends. Great food, drinks and vibes. Delicious skewers with special sauces and seasonings, the chicken and shrimp appetizer were delicious. Love the hi balls as well! 😊🥃
