FOOD
PHILOSOPHY

Every dish at EMI X is one Chef EMI would proudly serve at her own table.


Fresh ingredients.
Carefully chosen seasonings.

Wholesome, beautifully balanced, and deeply satisfying.

Alongside it, enjoy a considered selection of wines, sake, and original cocktails.

Each chosen to bring out the best in every dish.

WHY EMI X?

Rooted in Japan.
Inspired by the world.


The heart of EMI X is the Japanese home cooking Chef EMI grew up with. Crafted with local ingredients and enriched by inspiration gathered through her travels.

That’s why you won’t find sushi or ramen on our menu. Instead, discover a side of Japanese home cooking you never expected.

OUR STORY

It all began at a bustling weekend farmers’ market in Hawaii.

Watching people smile from their very first bite of my food was a moment that changed everything. I knew then that I wanted to take that warmth—the pure joy created around a simple table—and share it with the world.

That dream led me here, to San Sebastián.
