Description
We’d venture to guess that when Torijo Koto built the iconic Koto Building in downtown Twin Falls in 1920, the Japanese immigrant had no idea that a 100 years later, the building would still be a gathering place for people to share a bite, sip a drink and share their stories.
The Koto family built far more than a building when they laid each brick of the Koto Building. They built a lifestyle of excellent service to their community, an open door was offered for people to gather, to live out the lunches and dinners of their lives with the people that matter most. We are committed to telling the story of not just the building but our town over a pint or two. From the Twin Falls native brewer to the old High School Gym floors being the table tops, our story is intertwined with the Koto family. It’s a great honor to build upon the foundation they laid for our community.
So come, consider this your official invitation. Our queso is unmatched. Our beer list will ensure enough options that your night could be unforgettable (or maybe forgetable- whatever you need). Shuffleboard? You know you want to relive those glory days. We’re ready for you.

Draft at Koto. Hazy yellow pour, silky white foamy head (West Coast IPA?). Aroma is light citrus ( West Coast IPA?). Taste is light citrus ( West Coast IPA?). Ok, I think you get the point. This is pretty much a hazy IPA. I wish they would stop throwing that West Coast label around.
