Japanese grill and Tokyo-style listening bar
Tucked in an alley in the heart of Athens, Birdman is an intimate, no-fuss-no-frills, Japanese bar and grill, that pays homage to late-night Tokyo eateries and jazz Kissa-style listening bars in Japan, serving new style yakitori, straightforward drinks, and Hi-Fi analogue tunes.
Our open fire kitchen focuses on the traditional Japanese grill culture. We showcase neck-to-tail yakitori, meat and seafood kushiyaki, hands-only bone-in cuts, and an extensive selection of rare-breed beef nigiri, while paying homage to our Hellenic heritage. Seasonality is key in our kitchen. We work with small farms and focus on what is harvested seasonally to celebrate fresh flavors at their peak.
Our birds are organic, slow-reared, and non-GMO grain-fed. Our meat is grass-fed and non- hormone treated. We favor older animals from rare traditional breeds, sourced from Greece, the United Kingdom, and the rest of the EU. Seafood on the menu is caught using methods that do not compromise long-term ocean health and ensure the continued availability of seafood for future generations.
Our bar, inspired by the harmony, ritual, and attention to detail found in everything Japanese, encapsulates our respect & appreciation for this culture.
Our shelves showcase a selection of single grain whiskeys, embracing Japan and its regions, as well as small-batch new-world distilleries found in Taiwan, India, and America. In addition, the eclectic selection of aperitifs, classics, and house cocktails is complemented by an extensive range of traditional vand new-made sake labels.
Built around a deep love for music & the culture within it, our hi-fi analogue audio system intends to create an uncomplicated warm ambiance for our audiophile guests to engage with music in the deepest way.
