Mitsuwa has held a special place in my heart ever since high school, when my friends and I would drive to the mega location alongside the Hudson River (then called Yaohan) to eat and take in the best views of NYC. When I moved out here, I was excited to discover a Mitsuwa near my apartment (albeit a tiny one hidden in a strip mall). After a long Saturday at the office, a bento box from their food court saved my day.
