One of the best Japanese restaurants in SP
The restaurant is located in a charming house in Itaim, renovated and designed by architect Arthur Casas, it has a beautiful atmosphere with large straw chandeliers. In addition, it has three environments. The first is a bar, right at the entrance, to welcome customers, ideal for a drink before dinner. There is also the main hall and an outdoor area at the back where you can drink sake or wine while waiting for your table.

The menu changes each season, with exclusive creations from chef and partner, George Koshoji. So expect a mix of classics, traditional and unusual. To start, the ideal is to order starters to share, such as Hambagu tuna foie, with tuna, spices, foie gras and balsamic taré. Some of the chef’s suggestions, for example, include truffled Ikura quail, scallops and roe and avocado tuna.

The story
Created by Carlos Augusto Carvalho and chef George Koshoji, it appeared in 1988 in a small door in the Ipiranga neighborhood. In other words, unlike the gastronomic scene at the time, where the concentration of oriental cuisine was in the Liberdade neighborhood. Since 1990, he moved to Itaim.
