Dishes at KINKA IZAKAYA can be paired with a selection of refreshing beers, premium sake and cocktails. An izakaya is a Japanese pub, an inviting place to enjoy exquisite food and drinks. It lets you unwind after a hard day’s work and to celebrate life’s milestones. Izakayas offer relaxation, plenty of laughter, and amazing food.
