Roketsu is a refined Japanese restaurant at 12 New Quebec Street in Marylebone. Rooted in kappo dining, it builds the experience around seasonality, craftsmanship and close interaction between the kitchen and its guests.
The traditional counter is the clearest expression of that approach, letting diners watch precise preparation unfold across a carefully paced meal. Regular ground floor tables, basement seating and private rooms provide alternatives for guests who prefer a different degree of intimacy.
Seasonal tasting menus draw on classic Japanese techniques while allowing the kitchen to respond to the best ingredients available at the time. Sushi and composed cooked courses appear within a broader progression, with presentation treated as part of the meal rather than decoration added at the end.
The interior was created by Nakamura Sotoji Komuten using traditional sukiya architecture and Japanese materials. Sake, wine and pairings support the food, while a small outdoor terrace offers another way to experience Roketsu during the warmer months.
Address: 12 New Quebec Street, Marylebone, London W1H 7RW, England
