Miso Izakaya

Love this place!  Located in Old Fourth Ward (O4W) this sushi restaurant is probably my favorite in town.  It's usually hard to get in and that's a great sign.  Don't confuse it with Craft Izakaya close by.  "Izakaya" is a Japanese name meaning "a type of informal Japanese drinking establishment that serves food to accompany the drinks." Located at 619 Edgewood Avenue close to the Beltline and Ammaza Pizza.  There is a parking lot next to it that usually has spots.  No valet too.  Absolute favorite things on the menu:  Soft shell crab BLT buns, Shoyu Tamago (soy marinated soft boiled egg over crispy rice) and the salmon sashimi.  Another fun thing to do is to try the Strong Guy sake.  It comes in a glass that is overfilled with a cute little blue and white china bowl underneath.  If you are a sushi lover you will not be sorry!
