It’s not formal, but this Japanese restaurant was tasty and refreshingly light.

Izumi is a Japanese restaurant, decorated with the typical bamboo, kimonos, and calligraphies. The center of the restaurant is a sushi bar with seats all around. Izumi charges a la carte, starting at $2 for two pieces of sushi.
















Izumi offers a la carte Japanese food, like sushi rolls, sashimi, and soups. There’s also a hot rock on which diners can grill their own meat, and hot pots (shabu-shabu), a kind of soup. The seaweed salad was great, as were the hot pots, especially if you don’t like sushi or sashimi.

For dessert Izumi offers traditional dishes with an Asian touch, as well as some regular Japanese desserts. With the dessert sampler you will get all the different tastes. It includes a ginger-green-tea flan, a green tea mousse, a fruit cocktail with coconut milk, and the amazing dumpling with sweet bean mousse inside.
