Fin Japanese Cuisine has brought Japanese fish fare to Chesterfield. The restaurant, which opened last Saturday in the former Einstein Bros. Bagels spot at 1682 Clarkson Road next to Krieger’s, offers a full lineup of sushi as well as cooked Japanese fare.
“We have a lot of grilled fish and a lot of traditional Japanese appetizer choices like shishamo [a saltwater fish] and takoyaki [Japanese octopus dumplings],” said owner Supatra Klum. Chesterfield locals will want to take note of Fin’s lunch deals like the bento lunch or sushi combo – choose one roll and three nigiri pieces or two rolls – for $8.95. The bento and sushi combo both come with miso soup, salad and rice.
The ambiance at the 80-seat eatery? “Calm,” said Klum, citing soft music and candlelit tables during dinner service. Fin is open weekdays for lunch 11:30 a.m. to 2:30 p.m., and serves dinner Monday through Thursday 5 p.m. to 9 p.m., and, on Friday and Saturday, until 10 p.m. No website as of yet, but you can find them – and pictures of tasty fish fare – on Facebook.
