History

Established in 2009.

Sawa Restaurant & Lounge opened with a contemporary Mediterranean & Japanese dual-concept cuisine in early 2010. The menu tells a story of where the East meets the Far East and dishes span the realm of tapas, kebabs, and sushi. In fact, Sawa means "Togetherness" in Arabic and "Harmony" in Japanese, a perfect key to Sawa's concept of bringing together seemingly separate cuisine elements into one great menu meant to be enjoyed and shared by everyone. While in business, Sawa has earned numerous awards and recognition for its outstanding ambiance, creative cocktails, eclectic cuisine, and chic lounge atmosphere. Entertainment is also an integral part of Sawa's story, focusing on an upscale dinnertainment concept as dinner guests are enchanted by live professional bellydance shows every weekend while they dine under the stars. The owners currently also own and operate C'est Bon Cafe, also at Merrick Park since 2003.
