Itsu (Broadwick Street)

Julian Metcalfe opened itsu Chelsea in 1997 whilst working at Pret a Manger (which he co-founded in 1986). At the time there were only a handful of Japanese restaurants in London; they were dull & expensive. In building the itsu brand, Julian and his team then spent years listening to customers and built a new type of food place altogether: light, green and good for you. Today, with 70 shops across England, our eat beautiful menu celebrates the amazing flavours of the Far East; high in nutrients yet refreshingly low in calories and saturated fat. Julian and his team continue to create light, nutritious and healthy dishes which actually taste delicious.
