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!

First time here, was excited to try the veggie ramen and rock shrimp. We came for lunch on a Saturday and there was plenty of seating and service was outstanding. Tonkatsu ramen and rock shrimp were especially good. Shoyu ramen broth was ok but all the vegetables provided were very good. They have tv’s that play some sports. Really like how restaurant is setup and decorated. Paid parking lot in back is not expensive.

Came to Meet for the first time for my Birthday back in April. The ambiance is nice and chill. Feels like I stepped into a restaurant in Asia. The food Amazing. We had shrimp Nori Tacos, chicken nanban, spicy tuna goyza and short rib ramen are amazing. Chefs kiss!! Amazing staff. No complaints I found a new spot to frequent.

I’ve been coming here for years for business meetings, family get togethers, celebrations after school concerts, and even casual dinners, and it’s always a great experience. The food is consistently fresh and delicious, the atmosphere is welcoming, and the staff is always attentive and friendly. Whether you’re coming with family, friends, or coworkers, it’s a great spot to relax and enjoy good food and drinks. Definitely one of my go to places.

The food and drinks were so good!! Drinks: Get the wasabi marg and the meet and greet. All the apps are fire and the skewers are perfectly cooked and seasoned (the best ones were eel, rib eye and pork belly). Cheese galbi ball has a tartar sauce dip that is fiiiiire. Ramen was really good too. 10/10 coming again
