Shukuu Izakaya & Sake Bar

The salmon donburi was tasty with nicely stacked salmon, though the portion felt a little small. The yakitori sticks were the real highlight—flavorful and pretty good value for money. The pork jowl leaned on the salty side, but that’s kind of expected at an izakaya since the food is meant to pair with drinks. I didn’t try the drinks this time but the menu looked interesting enough to warrant a return visit.

The place was buzzing, mostly with Japanese workers, which added to the authenticity—I honestly felt like I’d been transported straight to Japan for a bit.

Dropped by for dinner after work and was pleasantly surprised by how good the food was! I tried the mentaiko rosti, black cod, and spicy salmon don. The rosti was so tasty, the mentaiko sauce paired perfectly with the crispy potato. My personal favorite was definitely the black cod - superb quality, generous portion, and very reasonably priced. Will be back for sure!

Good place to order many dishes to try, this fried chicken and the fried rice is a must order. The scallops are good too. Place is cozy and lively. Good for colleagues and friends to hang out after work.

Place was vibey nice for small drinks and talks. Nice ambience, with comfortable lighting. Menu is interesting with special and unique dishes not found elsewhere. Love the grilled pork collar and pork belly the most, was impressed by the first bite with the charred taste and aroma of the meat. Minced pork katsu and pork jowl were nice too. Like combination of the pork jowl with the runny egg. Staff were friendly and provided recommendations, they were also prompt to respond to requests. Overall a satisfactory experience.

Met my friend for dinner at Shukuu Izakaya for some skewers after work, and it was a fun experience! It was our first time visiting an Izakaya and we were spoilt for choices. We ordered a few of the skewers - the beef wagyu was really tender and nice, while the pork belly and pork collar were soooo flavourful. We were both pleasantly surprised by how good the pork was. The minced pork katsu was yummy too, served piping hot and packed with meat.

Vibes of the place was nice and chill, making it a good place to hang and unwind after a day’s work with a glass of beer paired with skewers. If that’s what you’re looking for then Shukuu Izakaya is a place for you :)

The mentaiko scallops were amazing! Enjoyed the kani gratin and tori karaage as well.
