This Japanese restaurant and bar in Helsinki occupies the former premises of the Rivoli and Rivoletto restaurants, and its izakaya-style kitchen serves Japanese soul food. Shokudo offers a more intimate setting for classic and contemporary dishes, Japanese grill food and weekly specials, while Izakaya is a casual bar for food, drinks and snacks. The Ra-yu cocktail bar is modelled on the bars of Golden Gai in Shinjuku.
Kirin Ichiban is on tap, and the shelves hold sake and soju. Vegetarian, vegan and dessert options are on the menu. Tables can be booked online, booking is recommended for dinner. A visit usually lasts 2 to 3.5 hours, and cards and mobile payments are accepted.
