Daruma
Izakaya · Robata · Sushi · Sake

A Dublin izakaya,
made in Japan.

Built with friends from Osaka — small plates for sharing, dry-aged sushi from our robata kitchen, a binchō-tan grill, and a sake list poured by two in-house kikisake-shi. First dates, work nights, solo at the bar. Come as you are.

Eat yourself happy. Kuidaore.

— OUR STORY —

Four friends.
One obsession.

A stubborn obsession with sake and quality food brought us back to Dublin — first to Temple Bar, and then to Malahide.

We brought back what we couldn't find at home: an honest izakaya where small plates, robata, dry-aged sushi, and proper sake come together at one table.

— FROM THE GRILL —

A5 Miyazaki-gyū.
Champion beef.

First in Ireland to serve A5 Miyazaki-gyū — the multiple-time champion of Japan's prestigious Wagyu Olympics, and widely regarded as the finest beef in the world.

Sourced direct from Miyazaki, seared over binchĹŤ-tan charcoal. The variety changes with the season, but the standard never does.

02
— FROM THE BAR —

Craft sake cocktails.
Built by experts.

Two in-house kikisake-shi — certified sake sommeliers — pour the list and build the cocktails. Whether you're new to sake or already obsessed, they'll guide you to the right pairing.

Japanese shōchū, premium sake, sake-based craft cocktails, and a carefully chosen wine and beer list. House of Sake in Ireland.

03
— THE ROOM —

Pull up
a stool.

Warm wood, soft lanterns, and a wall of sake. No reservations needed at the bar — first come, first served. Pop in after work, on a date night, or just for a quiet drink.

On sushi nights, our chef works the bar in front of you — every piece dry-aged, every cut by hand.
