For delicious Japanese dishes and cocktails, go to izakaya bar SHIN. In Japan, they know the izakaya bar as a place where you can go for tasty snacks and alcoholic drinks - in a completely informal setting, of course. A place to chat with friends or to take your colleagues to after work. SHIN has created the same concept in our own Rotterdam.
Don't expect sushi or ramen, because SHIN shows that Japanese cuisine is more than that. For example, they serve crispy chicken, udon noodles, real wagyu from Japan and tasty vegetarian dishes.
