What to Order

Charred King Salmon with Yuzu Kosho

Rich, smoky salmon finished with a bright yuzu kosho emulsion and thinly sliced spring radish for contrast.

Shio-Glazed Turnips with Miso Butter

Hand-Rolled Rice Bowl with Pickled Vegetables

A comforting bowl of perfectly seasoned rice, seasonal pickles, and a soft-slow egg — simple, balanced, and deeply satisfying.
