Reviews for Izakaya 88 in Rockford, IL
One of my favorite spots in Rockford hands down. Food, atmosphere, the people are just great. The menu consists of Asian fusion... small plates but you can order from Shogun?s teppan menu as well as sushi. My personal favorite is their Brie salad! Read more
Great drinks awesome food! The sushi rolls are always prepared really well, and the drinks are strong without being... overpowering. One of my favorite places to go for sushi and drinks. They also have a great selection of craft beers. Read more
The place had a great atmosphere. We were on the hibachi side. There was a screaming child at the table behind us. The mom did... her best to calm him but, if he doesn't wanna be there! Food was good! Place is clean Is like to have been told gratuity wasincluded. Also, they base the amount with tax included. I would try the other side once and see how that goes Read more
I've been a regular customer at this establishment for years. There is something for everyone. There are three different areas... you can sit in. The cafe is beautiful and they offer you hot towels before your meal. If you are entertaining guests the habachiis top notch with great food and a show. If you come regularly and let to relax I highly recommend the Izakaya 88. The dinningarea of the bar is set with low lights and string lights on the ceiling. The menu is smaller but fantastic! I love the serverswho always remember that I like salt and pepper with my salad ! Shogun has the best sushi in town I've never had a badexperience with my food or service. We are always treated like family when we come in! 10/10 Read more
Went for my wife's birthday supper. The food is as amazing as it ever is! You have to try the pork belly. John and his crew are... some of the best people I've had the pleasure of meeting. Read more
The atmosphere was nothing short of a quiet spectacular. The open seating had my date and I stupefied, but we quickly... acclimated. The service was spot on. Their Hot Saki is to die for, I don't know if it's authentic, but I know what I like. Whichbrings me to the chicken! Can you say 'Melt in your mouth!' I can't recommend Shoygun/ Izakaya 88 enough. We will definitely bereturning. Read more
I've always had a great experience. Food and service are great on the Teppan side. Izakaya side is either hit or miss depending... on your server. As long as the food is delicious everything is usually good in my opinion. Read more
Spicy Tonkatsu Ramen was excellent. I have had it twice now and frequent this place often. Broth is a highlight. Prices are very... reasonable! Read more
