Description

Summary: Dramatic space with a soaring ceiling, a lit bar, and a central sushi counter.

Momotaro sits as a stunner from the group, blending a vast Japanese menu with an underground vibe. The room commands attention with a soaring ceiling, a central illuminated bar and a glassed in sushi counter, while the lower level izakaya offers a hushed Tokyo‑inspired retreat. Expect sushi, nigiri, sashimi, robata skewers, and bold plates like uni rice with black truffle and foie gras encased with steak. The drinks list features sake, creative cocktails, and a long wine selection, and meticulous service rounds out the experience.
