For cooked dishes, Okayama is the most decent Japanese Restaurant in San Jose Japan Town. Must try their Korean Beef. If you like something very very light, try mizutaki- a clear broth dish with veggi, mushroom ..etc.
The food's generally quite good here, but I come back often because they have tasty katsu curry. This inevitably means that I miss out on the excellent combination bento boxes, which is too bad because they are just that - excellent.
A JapanTown treat: Small and cozy.
The menu is full of interesting and slightly more unusual combinations and possibilites than traditional Japanese menus.
And, of course, the food is yummy!
