Miokuru

Miokuru opened on Warwick Street in July 2026 with a clear point of difference in London's fast-growing handroll scene: Japanese technique applied to the very best British seafood. Just steps from Piccadilly Circus, it is a compact, counter-led room where chefs roll temaki to order, backed by a small rear cocktail bar called EKI.

As a distinctive take on the British seafood handroll bar in Soho idea, its menu leans on day-boat fish and shellfish from British waters, rolled fresh so the seaweed stays crisp. Expect hand rolls of crab, seared beef and spicy tuna, pressed scallops, a seasonal vegetable plate and a handful of refined small plates and bowls, with cocktails from EKI to match.

What to expect from this handroll bar in Soho

Expect a made-to-order run of temaki eaten as each one lands: crab, seared beef and spicy tuna among the rolls, plus pressed scallops, seasonal vegetables and a few well-judged small plates. With just twenty counter seats and a ten-seat cocktail bar behind, it is intimate and best eaten at the counter, so booking ahead is sensible.

The kitchen and the bar

The British-seafood angle sets Miokuru apart from Soho's other handroll spots, championing UK fishermen and seasonal produce. The rear EKI cocktail bar makes it easy to start or finish with a drink. It sits among Warwick Street's new arrivals, near rooftop restaurant Yasmin, with more of the area's tables in our Soho restaurants listings.

How a visit works

Miokuru opens evenings Monday and Tuesday, lunch and dinner Wednesday to Saturday, and is closed on Sunday. It is a small counter, so book ahead. Menus and reservations are on its official site, and the opening was covered by Hot Dinners.
