Great drinks, good food (though portions are on the smaller side). Possibly the best selection of sake cups in Boston.
Ramen and sake!

Bolognese noodles and clams in sake sauce
Awesome sake selection. Ribs and wings and tacos were so tasty. That combo feels like I should be recommending a different place than this Asian masterpiece.
The Reiko Greene, gin gin mule, kamehameha, fulong blood & sand, morning star, yakuza old fashioned: A+. The shadowless fries and tiger style ribs are so, so, good.
