Kazu is a contemporary Japanese restaurant at 64 Charlotte Street in Fitzrovia. Its name refers to peace and harmony, an idea reflected in the calm modern interior and the careful presentation of food from Chef Dham Kodituwakku and his team.
The extensive menu gives sushi and sashimi a central role, with nigiri, thin rolls, inside out rolls and chef selected assortments offering different ways to explore fresh seafood. Counter seating brings diners closer to the preparation, while the dining room suits a relaxed lunch or a special evening meal.
Cooked dishes add tempura, teriyaki, grilled salmon and black cod, with rice bowls and Japanese small plates extending the range beyond raw fish. Tofu and vegetable choices provide useful flexibility, and a set lunch combines selected mains with soup, salad, rice and dessert.
Wine, sake and beer accompany the food, and the restaurant also has terrace seating and a private dining room for small groups. Guests with allergies or dietary requirements should tell the team before ordering so ingredients, sauces and preparation can be checked carefully.
Address: 64 Charlotte Street, Fitzrovia, London W1T 4QD, England
