いらっしゃいませ! 🙇‍♂️

You have probably heard the phrase "irasshaimase" once or twice when entering a Japanese establishment, but do you know what it means?

It's a greeting! To acknowledge your presence and warmly welcome you 🙏😊

That is what the sign in our window says, but there's also a less formal variation of this. Would you happen to know? 🤔

Multiple small dishes or multiple main? 🥘🍜🍤🍣

Are you someone who prefers to have the same delicious dish you've had before, or do you venture into new experiences?🍶🤩

More importantly; are there any dishes you'd like to see on our menu? 🤔

Yakitori skewers! 🍗🍢

An absolutely succulent piece that goes great with a cold beer and other smaller izakaya dishes while staying warm in this weather 🍖🍺

Get away from the rain and imagine yourself in a small street stall in Tokyo instead. Spring will for sure be here soon, but in the meantime, let's make the best of it with a few more cosy nights in 🥰

Have you had a chance to try our Cherry Chilli Negroni yet? 🌶 🍒

Mixing heat with sweet, this cocktail is gonna test your palate! 🔥🍬

A nice aperitif to build up your appetite while you wait🍸😋

Let's pretend dessert is as healthy for the body as it's for the soul with this green tea sweet 🍵🍰

Some are made for sharing, while others want it all for themselves! 😆🙈

Either way; remember to leave room for dessert! 🍨

Made any dinner plans for the weekend? 😄

We have a few spots open, give us a call to reserve a table, or pop by and we'll see what we can do 😊🍽

The ever popular dish; takoyaki 🦑🧆

When on date nights we've noticed many guests trying a bunch of smaller dishes together, which allows for lots of new experiences - together ❤️

Who here has tried takoyaki, and what were your thoughts? 🤔

Date night, anyone? 🥰🍷

It's the week of love, and we do love sushi 🍣 ❤️ Surprise your loved one, gal, or pal with a booking this week and get some quality time in over quality food 🍱

Which rolls would you share?

Share a bowl of ramen for Valentine's 🍜❤️

Some might argue it's more delicious than a plate of spaghetti and meatballs, but it's for certain just as romantic 🥢😍

Made your booking yet?

Three new exciting cocktails now entering!🍹✨️

Blue Magic: based on gin and yuzushu, this is a very refreshing cocktail which would suit the filling taste of ramen 🪄💙

Cherry Chilli Negroni: based on Campari and Umeshu, this smokey, bitter yet sweet cocktail comes with a little kick! Served best with grilled and typical izakaya dishes 🍒🥃
