Traditional home-cooking Japanese food in the Slope?

retag · June 2009

I live in the SE part of Park Slope and I never keep track of stores on the northern part of 5th ave.

Are there are Japanese restaurants that serve typical food? I know of a few places in Manhattan, but not in Brooklyn. My favorite is Soy in the LES. The only Japanese restaurants I see are sushi places, which is not typical Japanese.

Tamari has some more homestyle dishes - Fifth Ave between Union and Sackett

would the short-lived Yakitori Kitchen, in the now torn-down space which last occupied Sallie Mae's Cafe on 6th and Sterling, have counted?

Taro, believe it or not, has some great kitchen food now. The owner hired a new chef named Nakamichi, who makes a killer pork rib dish, as well as other stuff.

Do they still have the same people at the sushi bar?

Except for Sano the owner, they never keep anyone for more than six months it seems. I only go if Sano is working the bar. The big guy who works there is decent enough as well, I usually have him serve me sushi for lunch.

Thanks everyone. Sushi restaurants that serve one or two typical dishes is not what I am looking for. Why must every Japanese place serve the typical American sushi/teriyaki/tempura?
