Looking for a Japanese restaurant in Dublin 1?

Whether you fancy sushi for lunch, a comforting bowl of ramen or an evening of grilled skewers and cocktails, our Musashi family has several places to explore.

Discover Musashi on Capel Street and Parnell Street, visit us in the IFSC, or settle in at Hana Izakaya for Japanese plates made for sharing.

And if your plans take you south of the Liffey, you’ll find another Musashi welcome at Hogan Place in Dublin 2.

1.Musashi Capel Street — Sushi and Ramen on Capel Street

For a meal while exploring Dublin city centre, start with Musashi Capel Street. Our restaurant brings together sushi, ramen and hot dishes in a relaxed setting where you can take a break and enjoy something satisfying.

Meeting a friend for lunch? Order sushi alongside something warm. Heading out for dinner? Make time to sit down, catch up and explore the menu together.

2.Musashi Parnell Street — A Stop Near O’Connell Street

If you’re spending the day around Parnell Street, Moore Street or O’Connell Street, Musashi Parnell is a convenient place to pause for Japanese food.

Our menu includes sushi, ramen, tempura, gyoza, katsu curry and bento boxes. That variety makes it easy to plan a meal with friends, especially when one person wants sushi and another is craving a warm main course.

Drop in for lunch during a day in town, meet for dinner, or pick up a takeaway to enjoy at home.

3.Musashi IFSC — Japanese Food in Dublin’s Docklands

Working in the IFSC or exploring the Docklands? Musashi IFSC brings sushi, ramen, bento boxes and hot dishes to Custom House Square.

It’s a handy choice for a lunch break with colleagues, a meal between plans or dinner after work. Choose a bento box for your midday meal, settle in with ramen, or make sushi part of your evening catch-up.

For those staying or working nearby, it’s another way to enjoy Musashi in Dublin 1.

3.Hana Izakaya — Japanese Sharing Plates and Cocktails

For an evening built around sharing, visit Hana Izakaya by Musashi on Capel Street.

An izakaya is a casual Japanese dining spot where food and drinks come together. At Hana, that means charcoal-grilled yakitori, sushi and small plates, alongside sake and cocktails.

Start with a few dishes for the table and order more as the evening unfolds. The mix of grilled skewers, sushi and drinks makes Hana a lovely choice for a date, an after-work catch-up or a gathering with friends.

Musashi Capel Street and Hana Izakaya are separate restaurants on the same street, giving you two different ways to enjoy Japanese dining in the neighbourhood.

Beyond Dublin 1: Musashi Hogan Place

Spending time on the south side of the city? Visit Musashi Hogan Place at 48 Hogan Place, Dublin 2.

Our Hogan Place restaurant offers another city-centre option for sushi and Japanese food. Meet over sushi and sashimi, share starters, or choose a warming noodle dish for a relaxed lunch or dinner.

While it sits outside Dublin 1, it’s worth keeping in mind when your plans take you across the river.
