" Completely loved the experience! The service staff were attentive and very friendly. We ordered multiple dishes to share and enjoyed the freshness of each. Would come here again for a cozy night out with friends. " (*Curated Review*)

" The meal I had here was downright delicious! The skewered meats were so flavorful and cooked just right. The drinks selection was also varied and refreshing, making it a well-rounded dining experience. I'll definitely be back for more! " (*Curated Review*)

" I had lunch here yesterday and ordered the spicy ramen. It was delicious! The atmosphere was comfortable, and the staff were nice. I will say the price was a bit high for lunch, but the flavor was worth it. I highly recommend the spicy level if you like a kick! " (*Curated Review*)

" The Public Izakaya has an inviting atmosphere and the food is good, but my experience was marred by slow service. The ramen was decent but could use more depth of flavor. I might come back, but I hope things get better. " (*Curated Review*)

" Had dinner here last week and was really looking forward to the beef skewers. While they were seasoned well, they lacked the tenderness I was hoping for. The service was friendly, but our specific requests seemed to get lost at times. I still enjoyed the overall experience, but it could improve. " (*Curated Review*)

" We stumbled upon The Public Izakaya while wandering around Yountville and decided to give it a shot. What a delightful surprise! The service was friendly and attentive right from the start. I ordered their signature Unagi Don, and wow, the flavors were spot on. Definitely a place to keep on your list if you're in the area! " (*Curated Review*)

" I celebrated my friend's birthday here and the staff made it special with their attentive service. The drinks were excellent, and the food—especially the miso soup—was outstanding. Would definitely return again; great spot for group gatherings! " (*Curated Review*)
