This Pacific Japanese Restaurant in London Is Our Munch of the Week
Located in Broadway Market, Okko pairs Japanese cuisine with the laissez faire attitude of the Pacific Beach lifestyle.
Each week, we send our London community recommendations on where to go in the city via our free WhatsApp Broadcast. Alongside this, we have a series called Munch of the Week, and we regularly send out discounts, ticket giveaways and more.
Our most recent Munch of the Week highlight is the Hawaii-via-Hokkaido restaurant Okko, located in Hackney's Broadway Market. A fusion restaurant that combines the Pacific Beach lifestyle with Japanese food, Okko was recommended to us by Ryan Lanji and Sheerah Ravindren in their guide to east London's independent spots.
They commented, “Okko is a Broadway Market iconic sushi and Japanese restaurant, whose chilli margaritas are like that spicy nice taste of summer. If you are there for a short while grab some tacos, but if you have some time try the incredible rolls and fusion treats.”
Okko's calming atmosphere stands out amongst the bustle of the market area. London may not have the relaxing qualities of a beachside location in the summer, but it's certainly got its own charm. If you're looking for that blissful, sunkissed spot in which to enjoy Japanese cuisine outdoors in the city, make trying this restaurant your next priority on your to-do list. The restaurant has vegan and gluten-free options too.
