Izakaya Tenko - Lake Forest

I have a garlic allergy, so I informed the waitress and she advised that they could only serve me raw meat without any seasoning or marinade.

5/5 stars - 2021-10-01 The food is delicious and the staff is very friendly. We really enjoy dining here and order from this restaurant regularly. My only suggestion would be to add their miso soup to the Doordash menu because it is truly delicious.

The food and service at this restaurant were very good overall. Each dish we ordered will be reviewed accordingly. The yakitoris were the best items we tried from their menu. I highly recommend the garlic ribeye and pork belly. The baked mussels had a nice flavor with a hint of sweetness. A chopped mussel was placed on top of a bed of seasoned crab meat. The Uni pasta didn't have a distinct taste of uni-based sauce, but it was still enjoyable. The pasta was creamy and mixed with tomatoes, asparagus, and mushrooms, topped with a few pieces of uni. I would definitely return for the yakitori.

Wife and I went out for a nice meal here. We tried salmon belly, Philly roll, delicious lobster roll, spicy tuna toll, scallops. Great beer and wine. Great service. Two people with tip was $144.

Love this place,the food is so good a perfect place to grab a beer and some small plates of Japanese food and watch a game,perfect if you don't want to be around a big crowd.
