ISU — Where Japanese Precision Meets Peruvian Soul

ISU in Downtown St. Pete, where the worlds of Japanese technique and Peruvian vibrance come together in a beautifully crafted Nikkei experience. Designed in an izakaya style meant for sharing, the menu highlights pristine sushi, inventive hot and cold plates, and seasonal ingredients prepared with intention and artistry.

Located beneath its sister restaurant, Fortu, ISU’s intimate lower-level space feels like a hidden sanctuary—wrapped in warm woods, soft amber lighting, and an atmosphere made for lingering moments. It’s the kind of place where every plate invites conversation, every flavor surprises, and every visit feels like a discovery waiting to happen.

Perfect for date nights, special occasions, or anyone who loves exploring global flavors with someone they care about.
