Izakayas are one of Japan’s oldest style of eateries born from sake shops along main trade routes. These Japanese taverns are a casual place for friends and colleagues to gather and unwind from the day’s stress. Alcoholic beverages such as beer, sake, and shochu are the heart of the Izakaya culture, while many describe the food at these bars as “pairs well with alcohol.”
