We are saddened to announce the end of an era: Shiro of Japan will be closing after over 50 years in business. We have had a long history of introducing traditional Japanese cuisine and culture to Long Island and are very proud of our efforts. Shiro is more than a restaurant – it is a special place that has created countless memories for thousands of families, couples and groups. All the partners want to personally express our thanks and gratitude to our friend and partner Hiro Ishikawa, whose legacy is undeniable and his contributions to the Long Island and New York dining experience and introducing Japanese cuisine to the public will continue to be felt for decades to come. Hiro will continue to operate Shiro of Japan’s off premises.
