居酒屋Izakaya

An izakaya (居酒屋) (Japanese:) is a type of informal Japanese bar that serves alcoholic drinks and snacks. Izakaya are casual places for after-work drinking, similar to a pub, a Spanish tapas bar, or an American saloon or tavern. Several varieties of izakaya exist throughout Japan that serve a larger clientele than traditional izakaya or pubs. Typically, izakaya serve fried or grilled food designed to be shared with multiple people.
