History

Established in 2011.

We have taken over an old restaurant and transformed into a beautiful contemporary Japanese-style dining space. Our longtime friends, Kazuya Owada (an accomplished commercial designer) and skilled carpenter Masataka Oki, flew here from Japan and did this great work for us. Besides the overall design, there are many small examples of Japanese craftsmanship and detail that you may want to look for throughout the restaurant. Because the design was done by our close friend who has known us for a long time, the restaurant interior is a real combination of his style and also it represents us, Také and Kayo. Really, like family! The food we are serving is not exactly traditional Japanese restaurant food, but authentic home-style Japanese cooking - the food we eat every day, and has many influences from other culture and cuisines. It's special because it has some of our family history, with our family recipes and reflecting our backgrounds.
