A Hidden Chef’s Counter in Tremont brought to you by chefs from KyuuJuu.About this EventCHIKA 地下A Hidden Chef's Counter Above Edison's Pizza KitchenHidden above Edison's Pizza Kitchen, behind an unassuming door, is Chika (地下)—Japanese for "underground."Part chef's counter, part late-night lounge, Chika is an intimate 10-seat dining experience inspired by Tokyo's hidden bars and neighborhood izakayas.Guests enter through Edison's Pizza Kitchen before being quietly led upstairs into a candlelit room where deep red walls, good music, and exceptional food set the tone for the evening.This isn't traditional fine dining, and it isn't a formal omakase. It's a more relaxed, social take on a chef's tasting—bringing together incredible seafood, modern Japanese technique, and the kind of atmosphere that makes you want to order one more drink and stay a little longer.THE EXPERIENCEEach seating features a 12-course tasting created by Chef Ryan Endrian and Chef Kwan San, the culinary team behind Kyuu Juu and Sushi Kuwahata, whose work has helped shape Cleveland's modern Japanese dining scene.Expect a progression centered around thoughtfully prepared nigiri and seasonal small plates featuring:• Exceptional seafood sourced from around the world• Modern Japanese techniques rooted in tradition• Seasonal ingredients and evolving menus• A chef-guided experience enjoyed just inches from where every course is preparedNo two evenings are exactly alike.THE SPACEChika occupies the former upstairs home of Lava Lounge—reimagined while honoring the intimate, tucked-away character that made the space a neighborhood favorite for decades.Before or after dinner, settle into the upstairs lounge for a craft cocktail, sake, Japanese beer, or a quiet conversation. Chika isn't designed to rush you. The evening begins at the counter but doesn't have to end there.DETAILSExperience: $125 per guestReservation: $40 reservation payment is collected through Eventbrite to secure your seat.
