Nadagogo

Uniquely conceived as a convivial yakitori-izakaya with 3 distinctive culinary concepts and al-fresco dining, NADAGOGO presents authentic yakitori, robatayaki and washoku led by dedicated chefs including accomplished veterans of the Japanese kitchen, Chef Shimoji Atsushi and Chef Shimoda Goma.

This new dining hotspot in Wanchai's vibrant culinary district pays homage to Japan's revered gourmet and sake heritage. Inspired by the Nadagogo region - home to 26 thriving sake breweries along the Kobe-Osaka coast, a Japan Heritage site, it offers a genuine, welcoming Japanese dining experience, complemented by handpicked sake brewed with prized yeast.

Wan Chai is part of the Wan Chai District on Hong Kong Island. The north shore of Hong Kong Island is one of the densest business areas in the city: the MTR Island Line runs from Kennedy Town to Chai Wan, the trams ("ding dings") between Kennedy Town and Shau Kei Wan, and many businesses trade from upper floors of office blocks and older tenement buildings. The south side is known for beaches, trails and fishing harbours such as Repulse Bay, Stanley and the Aberdeen typhoon shelter, which get busy at weekends and on public holidays.
