About this restaurant

  • Romantic
  • Neighborhood gem
  • Innovative
Wakamono serves authentic Japanese dishes. Enjoy the casual environment of the dining area and the variety of specialty bento boxes, ramen and sushi. It also offers the convenient facility of ordering online in addition to eating in. The food at Wakamono is inspired by its owner Mr. Kai Togami's travels throughout the decades after his fishing village was destroyed by a tsunami in 1963. The menu offers both hot and cold starters, which include dishes like seared tuna with wasabi butter and steamed sea bass with black bean. One of the popular appetizers is the salmon tartare with avocado, crispy shallots, soy and lime. Wakamono also serves five types of ramen dishes, including vegan options. Try a range of bento, sushi and maki platters for a fulfilling main course. This restaurant offers specialty cocktails, sake and other libations to pair with meals.
