Izakaya 居酒屋 is a type of Japanese dining where drinking and little dishes are served. I guess you could associate drinking with any type of Japanese (or non Japanese) dining, too. Hence, Izakaya’s roots are with Sake houses, where they started to have customers drinking, and soon eating, at their establishments. I guess you could say Izakaya’s are the Japanese Gastropubs or Wine Bars.
