There is a small japanese bar I think people should give it a try, especially when you tired of noisy places, see:

The owner is japanese, he cook very nice western food and they play some decent music also. Many japanese go there, since the bar is not big(10/12 seats probably), so sometimes they are full between 9:00pm to 11:30pm.
