AUTHENTIC JAPANESE DINING

In Del Mar

Japan’s traditional culture is often described as a seasonal culture, for so much revolves around the changing seasons, and the sense of season is highly valued. As the seasons change, so do the menu offerings, with a premium placed on freshness and flavor to deliver the best of ingredients for the “shun,” or in English, “now-in-season.”

What is “Shimbashi”?

“Shim” means “New,” and “bashi” means “Bridge” in Japanese.

With the desire to provide San Diego with the best Japanese dining experience outside of Japan, we have named our restaurant Shimbashi, meaning “New Bridge.”


Shimbashi is an actual district in Tokyo where the first train rail was built in Japan in 1872. It’s also famous for Izakaya-style bars and restaurants for businessmen for after work relaxation and an opportunity to unwind after a busy day.

Japan’s traditional culture is often described as a seasonal culture, for so much revolves around the changing of the seasons, and the “sense” of season is highly valued. As the seasons change, so will the menu offerings, with a premium placed upon freshness and flavor to deliver the best of ingredients for the “shun” or, in English, now-in-season.

Our restaurant theme is based on the Izakaya, or Japanese “pub” – a unique and vital cornerstone of Japanese food culture.
