Summary: This intimate counter showcases Peruvian‑Japanese flavors with sharp acidity and select imports.
Itamae AO channels a bold Nikkei vision in a compact 10-seat counter setting, where the menu reimagines classic Peruvian‑Japanese flavors with sharp acidity and spice. Dishes move from lobster bisque with sweet potato gnocchi to creamy rice crowned with Hokkaido scallops and parmesan. Sourcing is meticulous, with whole fish flown in from Japan and occasionally displayed in dry‑aging fridges along the wall, a sight that underscores the drama of the tasting experience.
