Haikan

"A sibling restaurant to Daikaya in Chinatown, Haikan has become a go-to for clear, delicate chintan broth. The vegetarian ramen is particularly popular here, and small plates like Old Bay crab rangoon or mapo tofu poutine make for great appetizers. Haikan’s location next door to Atlantic Plumbing Cinema and right by 9:30 Club also makes it a popular stop for pre- or post-movie and concert meals." - Missy Frederick, Eater Staff

"To honor the many LGBTQ+ members of their staff, plus their guests and community at large, Daikaya Group created a Kosmo Kitty cocktail (sudachi, a Japanese citrus, Absolut mandarin, Triple Sec, cranberry and edible glitter). A percentage of sales will be donated to Capital Pride Alliance’s Pride 365 Fund. Available at Daikaya Izakaya, Daikaya Ramen, Tonari, Bantam King and Haikan." - Evan Caplan

"Daikaya Group chef/owner Katusya Fukushima’s Shaw ramen bar Haikan, now named Señor Fukushima through the summer, specializes in wafu (Japanese-style) Mexican dishes. The pop-up features soft shell crab with Veracruz sauce, stewed tomatoes, olives, capers, peal onions, garlic, and micro cilantro ($16)." - Tierney Plumb

"Haikan, Daikaya Group’s sleek Shaw standby for Sapporo-style noodles and small plates since 2016, is now home to a months-long pop-up celebrating cross-culinary connections between Mexico and Japan. Chef/owner Katusya Fukushima’s newly remodeled menu at Haikan, now named Señor Fukushima through the summer, specializes in wafu (Japanese-style) Mexican dishes. The taco-centric takeover builds upon the success of the wafu menu full of Italian noodle dishes and deep-dish pizza at Daikaya’s Chinatown sibling Tonari." - Tierney Plumb

"Haikan’s rendition of a Long Island iced tea, dubbed “Tokyo Tea,” is made with vodka, rum, gin, tequila, triple sec and midori. Wash it down alongside a large bowl of sapporo-style ramen." - Vinciane Ngomsi
