Supa San Opens in BKC with Japanese Izakaya Experience by Aditya Birla Hospitality

Aditya Birla New Age Hospitality has launched Supa San, a Japanese izakaya concept in Mumbai’s Bandra Kurla Complex (BKC). The establishment draws inspiration from the imagined perspective of a fictional manga-obsessed artist, creating a space that blends Japanese street culture with contemporary dining.

The term “Supa San” translates to “super fan” and reflects the venue’s theme—an immersive dining experience layered with visual references to Japanese pop culture and manga. From the interiors to the menu, every detail is influenced by Tokyo’s izakaya scene.

The culinary program is led by Chef Hideki Hiwatashi, who brings dishes such as hand-rolled ramen, kamameshi cooked in traditional iron pots, and a variety of tempura preparations. These offerings reflect authentic Japanese techniques, focused on simplicity and depth of flavor.

At the bar, Head Mixologist Trisha has developed a cocktail menu centered on Japanese ingredients. Guests can expect variations like wasabi-infused Picantes and interpretations of the classic Chu-Hi.

Beyond food and drink, Supa San incorporates manga-style wall art, signage, and themed design elements that reference Japanese underground fandoms. According to the team, the goal is to deliver an experience that’s not just culinary but also visually and culturally engaging.

The team said in a statement, “Supa San is a neighbourhood izakaya designed for discovery—where Japanese culinary craft meets the layered chaos of Tokyo’s backstreets and underground fandom. We channel the obsessive spirit of a fictional manga artist to create a dining experience that’s bold, immersive, and always a little unexpected.”

With this launch, Aditya Birla New Age Hospitality continues to expand its presence in the premium dining segment, adding another concept to Mumbai’s growing lineup of global culinary formats.
