Chef partner Masatomo 'Masa' Hamaya, who grew up in Japan, leads this Japanese tavern from The Indigo Road, the Charleston group behind O-Ku, Oak Steakhouse and Indaco. It opened in October 2025 in the former Maya space. The kitchen grills meat, seafood and vegetables over charcoal robata style, alongside ramen, tempura, hand rolls and a Carolina Gold crab rice. A Japanese Beer Garden sits out back.
