We are committed to providing a warm, inviting, and uniquely lavish experience for our diverse clientele. Our company is built on integrity, creating the world’s best restaurants, nightlife, and events.

Coming soon, Bar Shishi is hidden behind a discreet entrance on the third floor of the prestigious RIVANI building. This intimate, cocktail driven speakeasy brings a cinematic sense of theater to the art of mixology. Centered around Tokyo precision style bartending known as Ginza style, the experience focuses on elevated cocktails served alongside Japanese inspired light bites designed for sharing.

Warm lighting, layered textures, and curated vinyl allow the room to effortlessly evolve from early evening conversation into late night energy.
