About ShoSho

ShoSho brings electric izakaya energy to King William Road with punchy, modern Japanese cooking and serious craft cocktails. Regulars lean into the four-course Feed Me tasting menu, while tables trade snack plates—think crisp wontons, blue swimmer crab udon, and tender wagyu. The dining room hums with relaxed pace, backed by attentive floor staff who cater smoothly to dietary needs. The evening winds down over sake and house coconut sorbet.

  • Chef's Tasting & Feed Me Menus: A curated progression of dishes showcasing seasonal Japanese flavours, built for celebration tables.
  • Izakaya-Style Sharing: A shareable selection spanning delicate tempura, wonton crisps, and rich blue swimmer crab udon.
  • Tailored Dietary Accommodations: Thoughtful substitutions and dedicated menu guidance accommodate allergies without slowing kitchen pacing.

    We had the four-course Feed Me menu at Sho Sho on King William Road, and it was one of the best dining experiences we’ve had.

    Celebration dinners are elevated with attentive pacing, creative dishes like Wagyu tartare, and paired craft cocktails in a warm, inviting dining space.

  • Dedicated Dietary & Allergy Customization

    Rather than issuing a standard denial, the floor team actively marks up custom menus to ensure allergen safety while accommodating distinct dietary needs.

    She provided a separate menu and personally ensured each inappropriate item was crossed off for this individual.

  • Abundant Share-Plate Dining for Groups

    A generous variety of small snacks and larger share plates lets groups sample across the modern izakaya menu together.

    Heaps of small snacks and larger plates to share. Very yummy, well seasoned food and attentive staff.

Before you head over

Essential advice on reservations, dietary requests, and menu formats for your visit

  • Book Ahead for Weekends

    Reserve your table in advance, particularly for peak weekend evenings, as the dining room fills up quickly.

  • Flag Dietary Requirements

    If you have specific allergies or dietary needs, let the staff know; servers provide dedicated menus with unsuitable items individually marked off.

  • Choose Tasting Menus vs. À La Carte

    While curated tasting options like the Feed Me or Chef Omakase menus offer balanced multi-course dining, ordering à la carte share plates can provide a generous spread at a lower cost.
