404 Description

As you step inside the unassuming front door of 404, the newest venture from the Oha Group (Oha Eatery, Pass Residence, Dead Poet), the smell of grilled chicken skin, crispy charred meat and a hint of miso fill the air of this cozy, dimly lit restaurant. 

The garnish station, grill and bar sit in the center of the space, with a variety of seating options surrounding it – an eclectic mix of bar stools, plush Chesterfield-like accent chairs and standard folding chairs with plaid covered cushions.  

The emerald green tufted sofas and lounge chairs fit the jazz music emanating from the speakers, creating a whiskey and cigar bar vibe that seems like a curious choice for a Japanese yakitori spot – a place that usually involves a bustling shotgun bar with smoke-laden layers of controlled chaos composed of speedy skewers and flowing highballs. And this is where the confusion sets in and continues to pervade throughout the entire night.
