Japanese Restaurants in Bristol

1. The Olive Tree, Queensberry Hotel British, Modern restaurant in Bath Russell St - BA1

“Excellent in all respects” – nothing but upbeat reports this year on Chris Cleghorn’s well-known and much accoladed basement dining room: the only Bath restaurant with a Michelin star and with a long history as a foodie Mecca. The dining focus here is on the six-course and nine-course tasting menus, but if you just want to pay a visit they do serve breakfast and a simpler lunch. Nothing but praise too this year for its basement quarters, which fans say are “perfect for a special celebration”.

2. Woky Ko Cargo Japanese restaurant in Bristol Unit 7, CARGO, Wapping Wharf, Gaol Ferry Steps - BS1

2021 Review: Masterchef finalist, Larkin Cen’s original venture is housed in a converted shipping container in Wapping Wharf, serving Asian street food featuring bao, xiao sharing plates, noodle and rice dishes (and a salted caramel ice cream bao dessert that’s gone down a storm locally). He also has a number of ‘Woky Ko’ spin offs, including a new ‘Jing Xu’ branch in Clifton, which – in September 2019 – replaced his ‘Kauto’ branch. The new business is based on Siu Lap Dong (BBQ meats).
