We are a Japanese-inspired izakaya, one of the most popular types of restaurant in Japan. An izakaya can be as modest as the corner bar near the train station where businessmen stop for a drink before going home. Or it can be an over-the-top experience in downtown Tokyo that offers a Japanese spin on any of the great cuisines of the world.
We don't serve too-sweet teriyaki chicken, California rolls drenched in flavored mayonaise, or soggy tempura. You can find that in strip malls across America. If you're looking to be surprised and delighted by flavors and combinations resulting from our unique blending of Japan and Mexico, come to izanami. If you'd like to explore sake that tastes best when chilled, choose from the largest selection of artisinal Japanese sake in North America. Try our seasonal cocktails made with Japanese spirits. Or taste some of the most creative zero-proof libations in Santa Fe.
Depending on your definition, we're not 'authentic' -- and we're proud of that.
