The Koji Club

This tiny, 16-seat venue at the Charles River Speedway is the first bar in Boston solely dedicated to sake. Making the versitile drink fun and accessible is the mission of Alyssa Mikiko DiPasquale, an alumna of O Ya and a decorated sake expert. From pairing dinners to karaoke events and ticketed sake tastings every weekend, The Koji Club continues to host dynamic events centered on sake in addition to offering a cool atmosphere for nightly imbibing. Explore a whole new world of sake, some available in the U.S. for the first time thanks to DiPasquale's deep knowledge of the beverage category. Do not hesitate to ask questions from the knowledgeable bartenders. Fans of Japanese food, take note: Chef Moe Kuroki, who owned downtown Boston's bygone Oisa Ramen shop, now works at the bar and cooks makanai, or "family meal," at the Koji Club every Wednesday night. Always available are snacks like Candy's Cukes and white rice, or you can pair your sake with snacks from Speedway neighbors.
