Modern in its minimalist use of colour and clean lines, the new So Restaurant near Spitalfields market and Liverpool street station is every bit the contemporary Japanese restaurant. The airy ground floor dining area is a unique mixture of wooden furniture and Yatai bar (Japanese food stall style) tables, and calming greens, creating a warm welcoming atmosphere. Head chef Zu Tanaka's dishes are creative without being fussy, introducing upgraded homely Japanese dishes as well as much loved Japanese dishes with a SO twist. Signature dishes include grilled eel, yakitori chicken cooked over volcanic rocks from Mt Fuji, crunchy pork katsu made with special panko imported from Japan, tempura, fresh sashimi, and maki sushi selection of delicious flavour and texture combinations. Enjoy a delectable selection of sake, wine, Japanese whiskies, and seasonal cocktails with authentic Japanese food. *We are the same So Restaurant that operated in Soho 2006-2020
