Whether you're joining us for a celebratory dinner, a quiet evening out, or a casual night at our bar with friends, Nichinan is a place to connect over incredible food and drink. Complement your meal with selections from our curated sake list, showcasing some of Japan’s finest brews, or choose from our range of handcrafted cocktails, wines, and beers.
