Meet Izakaya
Overview
The izakaya approach to drinking and dining as arrived in Rockville Centre at MEET BAR & IZAKAYA.
Translated literally as “stay saké shop”, izakayas are essentially Japanese taverns which are integral to the culture, food, and nightlife in Japan - they are the casual hideouts where you can linger with good friends over tasty food & plenty of cold drinks! Expect a chatty atmosphere and an upbeat energy once you enter MEET.
And when it comes to cuisine, the rules are loose and open to interpretation at izakayas - and likely a reason why their followers find them easy to love. The choices are always many: At MEET, you might try something raw, something fried, something pickled, something skewered, something simmered, or something grilled, perhaps. What ties it all together is that the choices are all tasty, drink-friendly, and meant to be shared. Come explore!

Dinner tonight at Meet Izakyany was amazing. We went with their Wednesday prix fixe special - I’m appetizer, entrée, and dessert for just $30. The mango crepe cake was absolutely chef’s kiss. Our server, Sean, was friendly and polite, and all of his recommendations were spot on. I’d definitely come back again!

Priscilla is freaking amazing. Best bartender I’ve ever had the pleasure of meeting. My husband and I needed some quiet time over a drink and she was an angel in our time of need. Everyone needs to come here and have a delicious drink made by her! Much love~~

First time here and thoroughly enjoyed the food! My boyfriend got 5 skewers (skirt steak, ribeye, chicken, pork belly - we loved the skirt steak), and I got the tonkotsu ramen with short rib. Broth was delicious, short rib a little tough. Also, would recommend the spicy tuna crispy rice appetizer! For dessert, we got green tea creme brulee which was very yummy. We will be back!

Really enjoyed the food and drinks here. Really great service as well, and good prices. The short rib ramen was perfect, and I'd definitely recommend the lycheetini from the cocktails menu. Shout out to Meka also he was an awesome bartender and very attentive. I highly recommend checking this place out.

As you will see from my photos the food was so good I only remembered to take photo after I started eating. I came alone and food was great. I don’t usually eat a lot but I wanted to keep eating. I needed a pick me up and this was exactly what I needed. Drinks were awesome too, I tried their geisha flights and their version of a whiskey sour (I think made by owner which was best I’ve ever had). Also had their chocolate cake, forgot exactly what it’s called but it was delicious. Everyone was so friendly, I would definitely be returning.
