Tokyo-inspired comfort food with NYC energy”


Welcome to Izakaya Juraku, a lively Japanese gastropub in the heart of the Lower East Side where great food, craft drinks, and good energy come together.

Bold Flavors & Signature Dishes

From our crispy karaage (featured on NYT Cooking) and flavor-packed yakitori to our Wasabi Shake Shake Fries, we bring the best of Japan’s comfort food with a modern NYC twist. Don’t miss our handrolls, crispy rice, and Japanese chicken wings — all perfect for sharing over drinks.

A Drink Experience Like No Other

Our bar features a curated lineup of Japanese craft beers, premium sake, and whisky, along with house cocktails inspired by Japanese ingredients. Try the Matcha Sake Bomb, Katana Shot, or one of our signature creations made for late nights and good company.

A True Izakaya Atmosphere

Juraku isn’t just about food and drinks, it’s about community, creativity, and fun. The space is filled with character: Japanese antiques, anime figurines, J-pop on the speakers, and One Piece on screen. It’s a place to unwind, connect, and feel at home.
