Restaurant

The key word at this small Japanese pub is “snacks.” There are dozens of inexpensive small plates available, from geso kimchi - squid tentacles stir-fried with pickled cabbage ($3.75) - to torisenbei, chicken breaded with cornflakes ($3.75). Combo meals, featuring Japanese classics like tonkatsu, are available for under $9. By all means come in for a late bite: Maekawa is open until 2 a.m. on weekends and midnight weekdays. Open for dinner.
