After the success of Hakkasan and Yauatcha, Alan Yau was asked to open a fine dining Japanese restaurant within stylish St. James as the location for his next project - Sake No Hana. Inspired by Japanese izakaya sake bars with their traditional low-seating; the interior is modern and minimalist with sleek wooden tables, glossy black surfaces and bamboo-effect walls. The menu is divided in the Japanese way, by methods of cooking rather than by course, so it is ideal for those who like to graze and share. Popular dishes include Miso Chilean seabass and Wagyu beef steak with wild mushrooms, wasabi and mirin sake sauce. A selection of sushi, sashimi and tempura is also available. A sommelier is on hand to guide diners through the drinks menu, which features some exquisite sakés and shochus (Japanese vodkas) and a wealth of wines from France.
Guests dining at the Tatami mats will be required to remove their shoes.
