Stick to the appetizers and a sake flight. - Edit
This is the local place to get your sake, made in house, and have some creative takes on various East Asian street food.

Great steamed buns in Uptown - Edit
Moto-I is a frequent spot that I visit with my non-vegan friends. They have good cocktails, flavorful noodle dishes, and the steamed buns are SO tasty. The tofu buns and the yakiudon are my favorites.

Excellent ramen & sake joint - Edit
This place is interesting. It has a bar vibe and upscale decor with a sumo wrestling motif. Several vegan options. My ramen was good, but the tofu bun was even better! I also had a delicious cocktail.

Vegetarian friendly - Edit
Stopped in here since we live nearby. Hadn't been there for a while so was very happy to find a few vegetarian selections which is unusual for a Japanese restaurant. We had the mushroom ramen and it was very good, but would have liked the broth a bit hotter (temperature). Also ordered fries (typical bar food); it was a serving fit for at least 4 people! There is a rooftop deck but it wasn't quite warm enough in the season for it. I'd be happy to return to Moto-i again soon
Read morePros: good selections, happy hour drinks, not too many TVs blaring
