ABOUT US
From the chef who brought the first Izakaya to Washington DC, comes an intimate vision of Japanese street food by Darren Norris and his wife, Candice Wise-Norris.
Chef Darren is a James Beard Award Winner of "Top 25 Best New Restaurant in America” and winner of Restaurateur of the Year 2011 of Washington DC.
Shibuya Eatery puts "A Modern Spin On Traditional Izakaya Fare".
Chef Darren offers you skewers of tasty bites grilled over binchotan charcoal, accompanied with bowls of fresh soba and udon noodles and flavorful broths to nourish the soul.
Shibuya Eatery and Death Punch Bar are located in one building in Adams Morgan. Outdoor seating is available (covered with heaters). Our ability to honor reservations is contingent upon good weather.
