Warm lights, good music, cold drinks, and a table full of sushi.

The kind of atmosphere that makes you stay longer than planned. 🍣

Empty plates usually say enough.

A table full of dishes that somehow disappears within minutes tends to be a good sign.

Japonica is the kind of place made for long catch-ups and good conversation.

A few craft rolls, drinks on the table, and suddenly it’s been two hours. 🍣

Three ways to do it right.

Bluefin with balsamic, yellowtail with garlic ponzu, and salmon with onion ginger, each one finished to highlight the fish, not cover it. Clean, balanced, and meant to be experienced side by side.

A simple lineup that shows what precision really tastes like.

If you’re into sake with personality, this one’s for you.

Dewazakura “Tobiroku” is a sparkling nigori from Yamagata, crafted using secondary fermentation in the bottle for natural carbonation. The result? Lightly creamy, dry, and refreshingly crisp with a subtle fizz that lifts every sip.

It’s bright, balanced, and made for pairing, especially alongside sushi. Available in a 300ml bottle.

Ask for Tobiroku next time you’re at Japonica. đŸ¶
