"The restaurant group behind Goodman, Beast, Pinna, Chelsea Grill and Wild Tavern, has added a Japanese izakaya to its roster with the opening of Wild Izakaya in the City. Inspired by the establishments found all over Tokyo, Wild Izakaya features an open kitchen with counter seating, larger tables for groups, classic Japanese films on a projector, and a drinks list including Japanese beers, sake and cocktails."
"The kitchen is led by Japanese chefs working under Executive Chef Satoru Hashimoto (ex-Koyn and Nobu), who are serving a menu of nigiri, sashimi, maki and temaki, with rolls like ebi katsu, unagi and cucumber, toro and pickled radish, salmon avocado, and spicy tuna. Alongside the sushi, you can get hot dishes like: agedashi tofu chicken karaage crispy rice salmon nasu dengaku wagyu kushi with sweet soy duck and spring onion skewers tsukune with egg sea bass nitsuke garlic pepper shrimp gohan rice"
"I travelled to Tokyo with Ilya and experienced the real izakaya. We already had the location with a completely different concept in mind, but after that trip it all clicked - something we felt was missing in the City of London. Shortly after, we met chef Satoru, who had also wanted to bring authentic izakaya dining to London for a long time. The energy of the City and Tokyo - a perfect match. And with the interior details, we wanted to bring that Tokyo vibe."
Wild Izakaya opens at 33 Old Jewry in the City of London, delivering a Tokyo-style izakaya atmosphere with an open kitchen, counter seating, larger group tables and projected classic Japanese films. The drinks list highlights Japanese beers, sake and cocktails to complement the menu. Japanese chefs work under Executive Chef Satoru Hashimoto (ex-Koyn and Nobu) to produce nigiri, sashimi, maki, temaki and assorted rolls including ebi katsu, unagi, toro and spicy tuna. A selection of hot dishes ranges from agedashi tofu and chicken karaage to wagyu kushi, sea bass nitsuke and garlic pepper shrimp gohan rice.
