I had been dying to try Kasadela, an East Village Japanese tapas spot for a long time and was not disappointed. The menu, specials menu, sake menu, and additional chalk board specials menu can be overwhelming, but rest assured that nearly everything we tried was worthy of glowing reviews.
Particularly great were the mussels, beef skewers, potato salad, and the sweet chicken wings (see photo) that I had been given a heads up about ordering, and rightly so, as they are one of the best items on the menu.
The only misstep the entire night was the sausage which was lackluster after expectations had been raised by the amazing versions at Kuma Inn and Sripraphai.?/p>
The sake is good, the service is friendly and ultra cute, and the atmosphere is welcoming so you can stay and chat for hours with friends.
But what do you think?
