"This Japanese jazz bar is one of those rare Midtown spots that makes you forget you’re half a mile from Auntie Anne’s in Penn Station. But now they’re offering live music, sake, and delicious cod roe spaghetti on their sidewalk every night starting at 5pm. Music typically starts around 6:30pm (with a $10 cover charge only on Friday and Saturday nights), but we’d recommend showing up early to get a seat since they aren’t taking any reservations." - nikko duren
