INKO NITO Soho is an unconventional Japanese robatayaki restaurant on Broadwick Street. Created by restaurateur Rainer Becker and opened in 2018, it combines a relaxed social dining room with an open robata grill that lets guests watch the kitchen at work.
Japanese cooking is shaped by Korean flavour influences across the menu. Robata dishes include Korean spiced lamb rump with aubergine and miso black cod with pickled daikon, while grilled vegetables and skewers make the charcoal cooking central to a shared meal.
Sushi and sashimi sit beside hot dishes such as Japanese fried chicken with peanut, chilli and garlic yoghurt, kimchi rice and a rich beef and truffle sando. The range allows a table to move between raw seafood, crisp snacks, grilled food and comforting rice dishes.
Cocktails made in house are served on tap, including a watermelon, Aperol and yuzu INKO Spritz and an Ichigo Negroni with plum sake and strawberry. Counter seating, weekend brunch and sharing menus reinforce the energetic atmosphere and make the restaurant especially suited to groups.
Address: 55 Broadwick Street, Soho, London W1F 9QS, England
