"Karasu is sort of like a Japanese speakeasy in the back of Walter’s, except nobody calls it a speakeasy and it’s definitely not a secret. That’s probably why we like it so much: there’s no password or fake door, just low lighting and a lot of Japanese whisky. Put on an outfit, order the prime rib for two, some karaage, and anything from the cocktail menu. In case you need a pre-dinner drink, they have a Happy Hour on Monday, Wednesday, and Thursday from 5-7pm. You’re bound to feel ten times cooler than anyone who didn’t start their night at a bar in the back of a restaurant." - Willa Moore, Bryan Kim
