OTTO Izakaya has announced it will open its second location at the former Breakwater Restaurant & Bar space at 802 S Main St. (with the first being on Woodruff). Expect to see more shareable plates and popular dishes like hand-cut fries, noodles, and sliders.

Peter Lieu along with his nephew and partner, Doug Yi plan to include a sushi bar in front of the kitchen to continue serving regionalized “never frozen” sushi. Pair that with any of the 30 sakes that will be offered at this Japanese style pub. 👌🏽

Breakwater Greenville closed their doors just last weekend, after five years in Greenville. Their original concept, which is still open, is in Beaufort.

Their hours will be 4 p.m. – 2 a.m. with a second happy hour at 10 p.m. They hope to be open by the fall.
