Welcome to Ginza St. James.
A multi-sensorial journey through traditional flavours and cooking styles.

The beauty and variety of Japanese cuisine reflects on our menus, including Edomae Sushi, Teppanyaki and Robata dishes, as well as one of the most extensive Sake list in London.

Using top quality ingredients we create a beautiful harmony including teppanyaki - a cooking style in which a chef cooks in front of you as well as a very popular Sushi bar.

Relax in the gorgeous and contemporary lounge on the first floor. The perfect setting for pre or post dinner drinks.

    So very disappointed, no children’s food, ordered them stick with no sauce and got charged £96 each. Total bill with no alcohol for 2 adults. A 12, 10 and 1 yr old £528, with £68 service charge at 15%. I feel violated.

    Honestly, the food was amazing and would definitely go back. Additionally, the team working on the night of our visit were really helpful and informative in the selection of their food. We also had a laugh and made us feel like we were in great hands for the evening. It’s also halal!!!!!
