DonDon Izakaya We have big rooms and a big drum So what makes up the other half, you ask? Well, ask yourself this: What is cheese without wine? And the drink list? Why, you ask?

Contrary to popular belief, an izakaya is not simply an “authentic Japanese restaurant.” The wonderful selection of foods is just half of the izakaya experience. Chocolate chip cookies without milk? An izakaya is the ultimate eating and drinking experience. The colourful menus present hungry patrons with pages of mouth-watering Japanese foods to choose from. The selection seems almost limitless. Good thing, because you’ll need a cold drink to wash down the food on your plate! …until the next dish arrives! Izakayas are also about atmosphere. Whether you come here with your pals, your colleagues, or your date, we expect you to lean back, kick off your shoes, and relax! Oh, and the more the merrier, of course! Well…

• An izakaya is not the place to order one boring dish for yourself. The portions are a little smaller than what you might expect, but this is so that you can order plate after plate of great food, and share the feast with your friends!
• It’s easier to share a pitcher of Sapporo or a fine Japanese sake with a group.
• No indoor voices necessary here! (Even the servers are loud.) Now that you have a better understanding of a Japanese izakaya, why don’t you pop by DonDon and try it out? If it’s your first time, our friendly waiters can help you with the menu. If you’ve already been to an izakaya in Japan, when you walk into DonDon, you’ll feel right at home! Ittadakimasu! (Bon Appetit!)
