Izakaya for non japanese people
score:3
Socializing is not limited to speaking the language.
It can help if you know some basic words and sentences to help you interact with the staff and table neighbors.
I see no problem you going in and enjoy yourself (and sometimes embarrass yourself by mis-communicating a little!)

Yes. I've seen foreigners who don't speak the language having a great time in izakayas.

You don't need to be local or japanese to socialize in japanese izakaya. However, it is convenient to bring someone who can speak for your orders.

I go to izakayas all the time in Japan. I essentially speak no Japanese other than hello, water please, etc. They are great and wonderful places to eat and socialize. Whether or not you can read the menu or socialize with Japanese only speakers is another issue. I've even been in little izakayas in little mountain towns with absolutely zero English skills and I have no problems... again.. whether or not I can read the menu on the wall is another matter.
If you go to an establishment that does not allow foreigners such as a Kyabakura or Pinsaro, they will just make an X with their arms to let you know that it's Japanese only or say "Japanese only". For izakayas you will have no problem and you will be let in.
