POKOTABI / Aquavit
Aquavit
Tucked on the B1 level of a Shibuya building, Aquavit pairs dim lighting with comforting pasta, Western plates, and a broad cellar of cocktails and wine.
01 / ABOUT THE PLACE
Step down to basement level B1 of a building in Shibuya's Udagawacho, and opening the door to Aquavit leaves the street bustle immediately behind. Under subdued lighting, the comfortable floor accommodates both solo visits at the bar counter and small gatherings around low-key dining tables.
While primarily a bar, the establishment keeps a surprisingly thorough food menu. Pasta offerings range across Italian standards like all'amatriciana, bolognese, and penne all'arrabbiata, flanked by satisfying drinking dishes such as beef shin braised in red wine and house-smoked salmon. Depending on your appetite, hearty choices like mentaiko and shirasu pasta, staff-style Napolitan, or limited-run gratins and curries provide substantial dining alongside your drink.
The beverage lineup gives guests plenty of room to tailor their evening. Bar cocktails include citrusy lemon sours and an adult Moscow Mule, backed by a generous range of wines, hard liquors, and beers. With course dining and all-you-can-drink arrangements available, the room suits a full opening meal just as comfortably as a nightcap in the early hours.
