Experience an authentic Japanese izakaya.  For hundreds of years, people in Japan have gone to Japanese style taverns called izakaya as hideaways for the ordinary workers and townspeople on the journey home after a hard day.  It was a "stepping stone" to refresh themselves or to decompress by chatting with coworkers over sake and small dishes at affordable prices.  Very popular in Japan for both men and women who seek real gourmet food along with good beverages.

We use fresh ingredients and serve authentic Japanese dishes found in Japan.
