Hotaru is another Banzai run izakaya that is located underneath Pepper Lunch.  My son and I tried it out last night and it was quite good!  It was a bit noisy due to all the tables being taken up by a large group of women having a good time, but the bar area was clear so we sat there.  Every dish was tasty except the avocado tacos...the tomato sauce was weird and the meat was sweet.  I look forward to coming back here some day with my wife.
