The Unique Flesh & Buns Experience
Flesh & Buns brings a modern twist to Japanese izakaya dining in the heart of London. As a standout Asian restaurant, our concept revolves around vibrant, shareable plates in a laid-back, social setting. Inspired by Japanese pub culture, our menu highlights signature bao buns and bold flavours served with a London edge.

It’s a full dining experience, placing Flesh & Buns firmly among the best Asian restaurants in London.
Our Famous Bao Buns
Our bao buns are the main attraction. These soft, steamed buns, filled with crispy duck, pork belly, or miso mushrooms, are what set us apart. Originally from Chinese cuisine, they’ve become a favourite across Asian menus and are now a signature at Flesh & Buns.
Their bold fillings and DIY style make them a must-try, drawing food lovers from all over the city. We’ve turned this simple dish into an unforgettable experience.
Check out our large plate options in our menu, where unlimited bao buns are included!
Exceptional Sushi and Sashimi
Flesh & Buns isn’t just about bao! Our sushi and sashimi stand out, too, because we use the freshest fish and prepare them with expert techniques, so each piece reflects true Japanese craftsmanship.
We’re one of the few Asian restaurants in London that foodies trust to serve quality cuts with clean, bold flavours. These artworks on a plate are a key reason we’re counted among the best Asian restaurants in London.
