About:

It offers inventive dishes blending Japanese-inspired flavors with American comfort classics, paired with specialty coffee and craft cocktails. Its airport-side setting provides guests with striking runway views, making it a distinctive local dining destination.
Origins and Concept
The restaurant’s name, “Sora”, means “sky” in Japanese—symbolizing both its aviation-inspired location and the aspirational vision of connecting community and creativity through food. The founders envisioned a place where travelers and locals alike could share an elevated yet approachable dining experience.
Menu and Culinary Style
Sora Eatery’s menu celebrates contrast: crisp Korean rice bowls beside juicy smash burgers, breakfast plates next to handcrafted onigiri. Popular dishes include kimchi fries, ribeye bulgogi rice bowls, and bao tacos.
