Our story
A counter of twenty seats, and a kitchen you can watch.
Yugure means “dusk” — the hour when the grill is lit and the first guests settle in. Our cooks work a few steps from your seat, and every plate is finished at the counter.
We buy from a small group of suppliers and change the menu with what arrives each week.
