"Izakaya Toribar is a cozy, authentic Japanese yakitori spot tucked away in Midtown East. The skewers—especially the pork belly-wrapped enoki, shishamo, and whole grilled shrimp—are packed with flavor and grilled to perfection. The atmosphere is lively and intimate, with an open kitchen that adds to the experience. Service is friendly, prices are reasonable (about $4–$5 per skewer), and the sake selection is awesome. It's a great place for a casual night out, especially if you grab a seat at the bar. Come early—it gets busy fast. Food: 5 Service: 5 Atmosphere: 5 Price per person: $50–100"
