KIGO invites you to experience the beauty of impermanence through a seasonal omakase where sushi and kaiseki unfold as one. Rooted in the philosophy of seasonality and transience, each course is thoughtfully composed to reflect the essence of the moment, expressed through the quiet elegance of Japanese hospitality.

Meet the Team
Akinori Tanigawa
Head ChefAt KIGO, Head Chef Akinori Tanigawa's vision touches everything: the farmers and artisans he chooses to work with, the ceramics he selects, the space between one course and the next. His cuisine doesn’t seek to impress, it seeks to express – whether it's the soul of Japan, the spirit of the seasons or the quiet joy of sharing something honest.
“At KIGO, my vision is to honour Japanese seasonality through dishes that are refined, balanced and deeply personal. Every creation is crafted to share not only flavour, but also a sense of story and transience."
