Kizuna Izakaya & Sake Bar in Albion is your new favourite dining spot - a contemporary Izakaya celebrating seasonally inspired cuisines, meticulously curated sake and cocktails.

"Kizuna" is a Japanese concept representing the enduring bonds and connections formed through shared experiences between people. Here at Kizuna they are dedicated to bringing people together, sharing the artistry of their craftsmanship from food to beverage, as well as telling the stories behind each bottle of Sake.

The black dim-lit décor and gorgeous warm lighting create a cosy atmosphere that feels both sophisticated and welcoming from the moment you walk in. The concise menu offers starters such as house pickle or Cucumber Surimi Sald, followed by dishes from the Raw Selection, Binchotan Grill, Tempura, Karaage and Signature Dishes such as Miso Grilled Salmon and Teriyaki Chicken. 

Menu standouts include the truffle kingfish, wagyu beef tataki, and fresh octopus with a wasabi marinade, each dish beautifully presented and full of flavour. From the Binchotan Grill, wagyu mince skewers are an absolute highlight - their melt-in-the-mouth texture is unbeatable.
