BATTERY

Step beyond the heavy door, and a serene interior opens up well away from the bustle of Kamata, anchored by a large, clear-blue aquarium where tropical fish glide past. Dining Bar BATTERY offers both counter seats and plush sofa booths, inviting guests to treat it not just as a late-night haunt, but as a full-fledged dinner destination for authentic Italian cooking.

An early highlight is the Japanese Black beef sushi, widely praised as far above standard bar fare. The tender melt of the wagyu fuses with warm sushi rice, offset by a lively burst of wasabi sauce for a rich, satisfying bite. The duck pastrami arrives in a towering portion that routinely draws gasps at the table, layered with smokiness, cracked black pepper, and sharp mustard that give an immediate lift to your opening drink.

When sharing with a group, hot dishes straight from the griddle or oven keep conversation flowing. Options range from a sausage platter enveloped in fragrant, melted raclette cheese to a signature Margherita pizza with a crisp thin crust and fragrant basil. To finish the meal, the sea urchin cream risotto is hard to pass up: garlic and olive oil provide a savory base beneath the lush sweetness of uni, resulting in a rich plate that remains remarkably balanced while you sip wine or cocktails.

The beverage program is just as extensive, spanning seasonal fruit mojitos, whiskeys, wines, and classic nightcaps like Grasshoppers. Ordering directly from the bartender at the counter is half the fun, and whether you are gathering with friends, catching up quietly, or lingering solo at your own pace, the space welcomes easy drinking well into the night.
