What began as the singular vision of Mr. O’Keeffe for an elegant waterfront restaurant took many years of lengthy negotiation with The City of New York before permission was granted to start construction. At the time, the notion of building a restaurant amid what was such an isolated and neglected part of New York seemed like a great risk. Since opening in May of 1977, however, The River Café has been the recipient of numerous awards including selection as one of the five best restaurants in New York by the French culinary guide “Gault Millau”. The restaurant will forever hold the distinction of being at the forefront of what has become the re-birth of the Brooklyn waterfront.

Em 1994 foi concebido no mesmo shopping um fast-food de comida típica japonesa com aceitação imediata pelo público, devido a união de fatores que o novo conceito continha: agilidade no atendimento, preços acessíveis e qualidade.
A rede se expandiu com lojas próprias e a partir de 1996 adotou o sistema de franquia sendo desde então associada a ABF - Associação Brasileira de Franquia. Atualmente contamos com lojas em São Paulo (SP), Belo Horizonte (MG), Niterói (RJ) e em breve nas outras principais cidades do país.
