Issho: First Look at Stunning New Japanese Restaurant in Leeds

Issho Leeds Japanese Restaurant – Victoria Gate Leeds Rooftop Restaurant
With just weeks to go until the launch of D&D London’s newest Leeds venue, Issho, the team has offered an exciting sneak peek at the Japanese rooftop restaurant. Issho, which means ‘together’ in Japanese, will serve authentic Japanese dishes with a contemporary twist and an emphasis on sharing. It is due to open to the public on Wednesday, 21st June 2017.
The 7,807sq ft rooftop restaurant housed in the stunning Victoria Gate Leeds has a menu created by Executive Chef, Ben Orpwood, who previously held the same position at Zuma and Sexy Fish in London.
We recently paid a visit to their pop-up in Leeds City Centre to sample some of their Japanese-inspired cocktails and sharing dishes off the menu – read our Issho Leeds Review.

Executive Chef Ben Orpwood said: “We’ve been incredibly busy over the past few weeks, working away in the kitchen at Issho to put the finishing touches to the menu to make sure it’s perfect.”
“It’s been months in the making but the restaurant is taking shape quickly. It’s hard to believe there are just a few weeks left until the doors open but we can’t wait and we’re ready to give Leeds a taste of our eye-catching Japanese cuisine.”
Paul Rogers, Senior General Manager at Issho, said: “We hope that by giving a glimpse of what’s happening behind the scenes here at Issho, we can share some of the excitement that’s building in the run-up to the launch.”
“You’ll only have to wait a couple more weeks to see the stunning rooftop venue at its finest when it opens to the public on June 21st – we promise it will be worth the wait!”
