Sashi aims to create the perfect setting for sake from the novice to the connaisseur. An extensive sake list with detailed descriptions help you make a selection. For a more narrated experience, request a visit from the sake sommelier, choose to sample a flight of sakes or receive a recommendation on food pairings. We’ve also consulted with a mixologist to concoct unique sake cocktails. A carefully selected wine list complements the Sashi menu, with wines available by the bottle or glass. We also offer imported and domestic, draft and bottled beers.
