The intimate venue features four nightly live jazz sets across eight days a week, creating a cozy New York jazz club atmosphere with a distinctly Japanese character. The extensive beverage selection includes Japanese and Scotch whiskeys, classic cocktails, beers, and wines, complemented by fine dining offerings such as the Sone Set featuring Japanese beef sirloin.
