Fukuro

Late nights suit this place. Fukuro brings the spirit of a Tokyo izakaya to SoHo with a room that feels polished but never stiff, making it just as good for drinks at the bar as it is for a full evening with friends. The appeal is in the balance of energy and ease, with Japanese small plates, robata cooking, highballs, and sake all playing a central role. It feels lively, sociable, and a little tucked away from the usual Central routine, which is exactly why people return.
