EN Japanese Brasserie


Experience traditional Japanese dining in a beautiful, authentic Japanese restaurant located in the West Village of Manhattan. We are a modern izakaya, a relaxed style of dining that centers on a procession of tapas-style small plates. Like we do in Japan, we cook with the seasons, and savor the peak flavor of ingredients.

We adhere to the fundamentals of Japanese cooking: respecting the ingredients and their natural flavors, cooking in the moment, and not doing too much. We have created an extensive menu, featuring dishes as fresh tofu (prepared six times a night), saikyo miso black cod, stone grilled wagyu and a range of high quality sushi and sashimi. In addition, we have also prepared a signature EN Kaiseki set menu, a sequence of eight extraordinary presentations. Our sake sommelier, Takahiro Okada, has developed an extensive list of small-batch, artisanal sake and shochu to complement your dining experience.

Our restaurant also offers private rooms for special events, corporate dinners, birthday parties, private parties or private dining.

Whether you join us for romantic dining or a casual meal, we know you'll love our restaurant.

Enjoy!

fish heads, eel bones & beer
An En original dinner party inspired by our staff meals,
Every first Saturday of the month
10 pm
$45
to make a reservation, please call 212.647.9196

In a Japanese restaurant kitchen nothing gets wasted. Cooks make magic even with humble ingredients like fish heads, bones, vegetable peels, and scraps of rich wagyu beef, turning them into delicious, irresistible dishes. But not dishes for the customers—foods for the cooks themselves. These wondrous restaurant-family meals, called makanai, have inspired EN’s Chef Hiroki Abe to cook a lustrous tasting menu of tasty treats rarely found on a Japanese restaurant menu.

Join us to enjoy Chef Abe's creations the way his team does at the end of a busy shift, relaxed, with beer in hand. Dishes change monthly but past dinners have included: sake-marinated whole roasted tuna collar, crispy salmon skin salad with aromatic yuzu-citrus dressing, fresh tofu salad, delicate sea bream-head soup, crunchy deep fried eel and fluke bones, braised wagyu beef tips, sashimi ends over vinegared rice, and steaming butajiru, hearty pork and vegetable miso soup. Dinner includes all the Sapporo beer you can drink, of course. Chef Abe and his cooks wouldn't have it any other way.
