A Kamehachi icon for good reason. 🍤🥢

Our Rock Shrimp Tempura arrives crisp and golden, coated in a sweet and spicy glaze and served over frisée with citrus dressing. Bright, savory, and nearly impossible not to share. Nearly.

Friday night calls for something crispy. 🍆🔥

Our Eggplant Fries are tempura-fried until light and crisp, dusted with togarashi salt, and served with garlic shiso mayo for dipping. The kind of late-night otsumami that disappears from the table faster than you planned.
