This winter, a new restaurant serving Japanese cuisine will soon come to San Jose.
Temaki Bar is a Japanese restaurant coming up at 5657 Snell Ave. For now, the tentative opening plan is December this year.
“It will mainly serve sushi handrolls, different appetizers and will have a fairly simple menu,” said the owner Lam Van Nguyen.
Referring to Temaki Bar as an Omakase, meaning a curated fine-dining restaurant experience, Nguyen said that it is his first venture as a restauranteur.
Apart from food, the place will also be serving beer on the tap and a wide selection of sake.
The restaurant is inspired by the owner’s love for Japanese food. “Why did I decide to open this place? I just love sushi!” said Nguyen.
