SOKA

If you’re looking for somewhere to impress and haven’t cruised by the casual fine-dining experience that is SOKA, formerly Chako, we are officially here to tell you to hesitate no more. 

With a sleek and modern interior with low lights, comfortable seating and cocktail menu at the ready, we’ve found your perfect night out. SOKA’s menu is a delicious blend of Japanese and charcoal-prepared cuisine. The melt-in-your mouth chargrilled and raw sashimi dishes had us daydreaming of a one-way ticket to Japan.

With a menu sure to satisfy and delight any travel urges you may be experiencing, SOKA’s modern and extensive Japanese menu does not disappoint. Take your pick of incredible sashimi dishes—salmon, kingfisher, coral trout or scallops. Or a delicious chargrilled yakitori chicken skewer or corn cob served with teriyaki mayo, salted ricotta and shichimi. To balance out those delicious seafood dishes we’d also recommend the zucchini tempura in a black miso jam, edamame dip with avocado and lotus flowers or grilled cauliflower in brown butter, miso and candied pepitas. For the ultimate experience, hand your tastebuds over to the delicious chef’s banquet menu and we think you’ll be in the date night good books for weeks to come.  Plus, swing by on a Wednesday or Thursday night and you can devour kushi yaki skewers for just $8. 

As you roll out of this conveniently located Ocean Street hotspot, make sure to take a slice of the divine matcha tiramisu with you.
