Akatuki is a modern Japanese restaurant on Great Queen Street, in the heart of Covent Garden. Casual-luxury interiors, a full bar, and a menu built around fresh sushi, sashimi and A5 Wagyu.
Hire half of the restaurant for up to 30 guests, or the whole restaurant for up to 80 seated or 60 standing. Seat everyone for dinner, hold a standing reception, or mix the two. There is space for a DJ or live music, and our team stays with you throughout. Rates and minimum spend depend on the date and session: tell us yours and we'll send them.
