At NIJŪ you will discover the heartwarming flavours of Katei Ryori- traditional Japanese home-cooking made to share.

Crafted by renowned chefs Chris Golding and David Bury, and overseen by the expertise of Endo Kazutoshi, a third-generation sushi chef of the Michelin star Endo at the Rotunda, the menu is a celebration of unique flavours and impeccable execution. With an emphasis on ingredient-led cuisine, we combine fresh, seasonal ingredients with culinary experimentation to create nourishing dishes that pay tribute to the art of home-cooking.

The venue itself boasts new and innovative dining spaces, designed to cater to various preferences and group sizes. We have also dedicated a section specifically for our sushi bar, where guests have a front-row seat to the artistry of our sushi chefs.

    Vibey joint for the Mayfair cost-insensitive. Would you like caviar with that? Good experience all-round, though the menu is rather odd (or perhaps just unusual?). Particularly good service. Even turned the deafening music down when asked!

    Probably the best Japanese cuisine I've had in London. Every single dish was amazing but the sushi and sashimi in particular were mind blowing. Excellent service as well. We'll definitely be back!

    Good place a date night, very dimmed lighting and the music was a bit loud from time to time but was enjoyable throughout the meal. Excellent presentation and the staff were very attentive.

    Celebrated my first year wedding anniversary with Niju and it was a really pleasant experience, service was great as were the dishes. Ambience was great too, and was given a free dessert for our special occasion which was sweet
