Additionally, a terrace with 24 additional seats is planned to be set up.
The restaurant’s decor reflects the brand’s unique style, offering customers the authentic “SIBUYA experience,” where the flavors of Japanese cuisine are combined with a western touch. The menu highlights innovative dishes, such as Gyoza Maki, Curry Udon, Smoke Roll, and Sake KoroKKe, complemented by the already popular Gunkan Lovers and Flamed Roll. To top off the experience, diners can enjoy desserts like the Ichigo.
The SIBUYA Group, in charge of managing this new location, has created 20 stable jobs, mainly aimed at young people in the area with an average age under 30. The Group’s CEO, Jesús Fernández, expressed his enthusiasm for the opening, stating that Alcalá de Henares, with its rich history and tourist appeal, represents a strategic location to strengthen the brand’s presence in the center of Spain.
