A Japanese Drinking Den with Sake and Skewered Meats Is Headed to Cedar Springs

Sushi, sashimi, sushi rolls, and yakitori: that’s the focus for new Japanese restaurant Izakaya Roman, coming in June to Cedar Springs. Culturemap Dallas reports that the restaurant is from chef Koji Aoki, who once owned long-standing Arlington restaurant Sushi Zone.

Izakaya Roman will move into the spot that was most recently home to District 30, located at 3211 Oak Lawn Ave. Expect a bar stocked primarily with sake and Japanese beer, and the drinking food to go along with that — as in grilled meats, thanks to a yakitori bar.

Whiles skewers grilled on charcoal will be a big portion of the menu, diners at Izakaya Roman will be able to order dishes like ramen and bento boxes too.
