The long-awaited Kurobuta from ex Nobu chef Scott Hallsworth will officially open in Marylebone on 23 April. Another in London’s ever-growing list of ‘pop-up-turned-permanent-restaurants’, Kurobuta started out as a temporary spot on the Kings Road in October 2013.

This casual dining space, serving up Japanese food, beers and cocktails, was the UK’s first Izakaya – Japanese pub. Its mix of of rock ‘n’ roll tunes, sake offerings, fresh fruit cocktails, frozen head beer and Japanese dishes went down a storm. Kurobuta’s founder says its new home on Kendal Street will have the same chill-out vibe.
