Izakaya Fire, Chicago Soul.Hiro Izakaya brings the spirit of the Japanese izakaya to West Town and gives it a Chicago heartbeat. Born from a love of Japanese food and the pulse of a great neighborhood bar, the menu runs on live fire: robata off the charcoal, hand-pressed sushi and hand rolls, flavor-packed small plates, and sweets with edge. Pair it with premium sake, Japanese whisky, and cocktails built with the same intent as the food.Tradition with a modern edge, in a room wired for hi-fi sound, special events, electric lighting, and long nights. Happy hour Tuesday through Friday, late-night service on weekends, and private events from small groups to full buyouts. Come to eat, drink, connect, and stay awhile.
