Kuuki Sushi 9

Kuuki Sushi 9 brings a bright slice of Tokyo to Brick Lane, where Spitalfields’ bustle meets a calm, considered table. Here, the kitchen works with premium, daily-sourced catch, channelling classic technique into clean flavours and precise textures. It's Japanese craft presented with modern ease: elegant, unfussy and refreshingly direct.

The menu leans into the essentials, from salmon and tuna sashimi cut for purity to nigiri that lets seasoned rice and pristine fish do the talking. Gunkan crowned with salmon roe offers a briny pop, while slim hosomaki and crisp temaki keep things light and lively.

Beyond the classics, comfort takes centre stage: chicken katsu and avocado find a crunchy counterpoint in uramaki, mirrored by a prawn katsu and avocado roll. For a splash of spectacle, green dragon and rainbow rolls bring colour without crowding the palate, while sushi bowls provide a satisfying, no-nonsense fix.

Warm plates round out the meal: chicken karaage arrives golden and moreish, pumpkin korokke is all autumn sweetness and crisp bite, with edamame and seaweed salad for quietly savoury interludes.

With a relaxed ambience, it suits everything from casual dinners to unhurried evenings. Make a date with Brick Lane’s newest sushi stop and let the good times roll!
