LOOK & FEEL: Shunjuu Izakaya has two dining areas that offer different experiences. The indoor dining area, with its open-concept kitchen, gives off the vibe of a regular Japanese izakaya. It could get slightly noisy, but it is all part of the izakaya experience. If you prefer a more relaxed atmosphere, you can sit in the outdoor area and enjoy the view of the river.
