The name TOMO comes from the Japanese word "tomodachi", meaning "friend." As its name suggests, TOMO Izakaya is the perfect destination to relish Japanese food and drinks with your friends in Singapore.

TOMO Izakaya is a sophisticated modern izakaya that serves traditional Japanese dishes curated with sake, shochu, and other drinks to satisfy the palate. It has two branches in Singapore, one in Clarke Quay and another at the Esplanade.

The izakaya menu features a wide variety of small plates, including yakitori, sushi, and karaage.

Highlights

Ingredients are fresh from Japan: TOMO Izakaya prides itself in using only the freshest ingredients, air-flown twice weekly from Japan, ensuring that each dish captures the essence of the season.
Watch for regular promotions: Both branches regularly offer food and drink deals such as Shuck & Slurp (discounted oysters), 1 for 1 drinks, and special holiday promotions.
Happy hours for beers: You can enjoy discounted prices on beers every day from 5 to 7 PM. After 7 PM, all sakes go up to 8 SGD per glass which is still not bad, given the prices of drinks in most Singapore bars.
Nightly jazz music: Spice up your izakaya experience with classy live jazz music every night at TOMO Izakaya. Different groups play on separate days daily.
