Koyn Japanese

A contemporary izakaya-style restaurant in the upmarket Grosvenor Square area, Koyn Japanese balances modernity and tradition through its large, stylish venue as well as through its menu.

Dedicated to showcasing Asian culinary craftsmanship, Koyn in Mayfair is divided into two main dining areas, each dedicated to its own cuisine – one to Japanese, the other to Thai. Inspired by Japanese zen gardens and the verdant undergrowth found on Mount Fuji, the bright space on the ground floor features rich green leather seats, tatami mat-inspired oak flooring and walls adorned with bronze and glass sculptural lights. The centrepiece here is the sushi bar, a hand-carved marble station where fresh sushi is prepared in front of your eyes.

The menu at Koyn Japanese presents a broad assortment of Japanese cuisine, highlighting delicate umami flavours and responsibly sourced ingredients. You can choose from various sushi rolls, nigiri, and robata-grilled dishes on the `a la carte menu, or opt for the omakase experience.

Between the Koyn Japanese and Koyn Thai in the basement sits the house bar with a black timber counter, dark green leather stools and bronze wine cabinets. You are welcome to explore the bespoke collection of Japanese whiskies and sakes here, or indulge in an expertly crafted cocktail.
