I have been an avid guest of Kasadela. I say 'guest' because they make you feel comfortable like you are more than just a customer. The atmosphere is great with interesting photographs, figurines, and art covering the walls. The place is cozy and really does not feel small at all once inside. The food is a culinary experience to be had by all food lovers and appreciators of the culinary arts. Number one in my book would have to be the famous (seriously) one of kind garlic chicken wings made with two kinds of soy sauce. The rest of the menu is also designed to cater to the different flavors desired by one's palette. For instance, the waitress or waiter may suggest you a sake that compliments the food be it spicy, sweet, sour, or savory. The authentic izakaya house vibe makes me so comfortable I've often stayed there for hours conversing with other patrons and even the bartender. The language barrier is minimum at best, and the crowd it draws is often diverse. What more can you ask for? Great food. Great atmosphere. Great conversation.

this review is for those planning a large gathering (about 10 people, any more than that you might as well rent out the place) at kasadela. if you read the reviews before and after mine, you will know that the food here (no matter what you order) is guaranteed to be delish. so for those planning a large gathering, here is my run down. the kasadela staff was really friendly, helpful, and patient (from time i made the reservation to the time i rolled out of the restaruant). be sure you call ahead and make a reservation (but you already know that)...and i believe they accept phone calls after 5pm. they recommend having your party during off-peak times -- on weekdays or before/after the dinner rush on weekends. i had my party of 10 on a saturday at 10pm. grab pre-dinner drinks at any bar near the restaurant. kasadela has a bar area too, but with 10+ people, the area may get a little too cozy. the kasadela staff was awesome from start to finish. Bottom line, kasadela is a great place for a happy party and happy bellies.

Put sushi out of your mind -- this is dozens of little tasty plates of Japanese (and Korean) home cooking. Kind of like Omen, only cheaper and less traditional. Can get quite noisy at times (being a small dining, nowhere to run), but excellent food with a wide ranging sake menu make it worth tolerating the ocassional din.

Kasadela is a hideaway hidden along the beaten path but well worth the visit! What can I say except that the owner worked for Nobu, all the small dishes are so tasty you just keep on ordering and ordering. You will leave this restaurant satiated but not stuffed and you will feel like you just had an exceptional dining experience in this great city that we call the "BIG APPLE"!!

What else would you serve in such a cute space except for small plates of tasty Japanese treats! Grilled Chicken was perfect, Kimchee zesty and crisp, Age Tofu delicious and fried oysters were wonderful. Nothing here costs more then $10, get many plates to share. Also, cool Sake list. I am definately going back!
