The Canadian Wind Group is set to bring an innovative dining experience to Victor, New York, with the opening of East Izakaya, an all-you-can-eat sushi restaurant, in the location formerly occupied by City Tavern. This modern eatery, boasting a menu with over 160 sushi and grilled items, aims to offer diners the chance to explore a vast array of flavors. Beyond the all-you-can-eat menu, the restaurant will also provide à la carte options, takeout, and a selection of sake, beer, and cocktails.
Incorporating technology into the dining experience, East Izakaya will feature order placement through iPad tablets, with robots assisting in delivering food to tables. These robots are not just functional but interactive, engaging with customers and even performing birthday songs. This approach to service highlights the restaurant’s commitment to combining traditional dishes with modern conveniences.
The Victor location marks Wind Group’s expansion into the United States, following the successful launch of a restaurant in Buffalo less than a year prior. The choice of the spacious former City Tavern space reflects the company’s ambition to adapt and grow its unique dining concept. With plans for a summer opening, East Izakaya is poised to introduce a fresh culinary destination to the Rochester area, promising an engaging and diverse eating experience.
