Private dining

The whole restaurant for up to 80 guests, or a table for your group, in Covent Garden.

Your event at Akatuki

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 the whole restaurant and 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.

For a group of 21 or more without hiring the restaurant, we set tables for you alongside our other guests and plan the menu with you.
