Iru Izakaya is widely praised for its vibrant, neon-lit atmosphere and modern Japanese lounge vibe that makes the place feel festive and welcoming. The food is described as delicious and diverse, with generous portions and standout items across sushi, sashimi, and tapas-style plates, and many guests especially enjoy the discovery or tasting menus that showcase creativity and bold flavors, along with mains like ramen and duck fried rice in some cases. The beverage program is a major highlight, featuring inventive cocktails and highly regarded sake pairings, and sake bombs are often singled out, with attentive service at the bar and tables. Some reviews note loud music and crowds can be noisy, and a few point to busy nights, occasional delays in the kitchen, or dishes that miss the mark, such as ramen lacking depth or certain items being overly salted or pricey. Overall, the experience is regarded as memorable and worth the price for celebrations, group dinners, or romantic evenings, with many saying they would return and recommend the restaurant to friends.

Très bon service de Vincent. Il a bien pris son temps pour expliquer les plats au menu. Il était relaxe, souriant & gentil. On sentait qu'il prenait soin de ses clients!
Wow!!!! Service extraordinaire & personnalisé de la part de Vincent! Drôle, charismatique, il connait son menu ⭐?💫✨& que dire du cocktail aux bananes : de type miam.
