Tamura Sake, Records & Jazzy Kitchen offers an authentic Japanese izakaya dining experience. We source original sake, beer and the best music selection from Japan. We do our best to bring back the good memory you had in Japan, if you’ve been there, or make you want to travel there if haven’t yet.

Our food is home-made and focuses on whole chicken and less waste. We offer small, healthy dishes to share—from raw to grilled. Our records are selected by well-known Japanese DJs and producers!
