Izakaya on Smith (CLOSED)

Sip sake and nibble on edamame at this Japanese small-plates restaurant in Cobble Hill. Traditional izakaya plates, like yakitori and agedashi tofu, are the specialty here, but the wide-ranging menu also features sushi, ramen and main courses, like black-cod miso. Thin white birch tree trunks decorate the space, which is outfitted with wood floors and stone walls.
