It’s the first branch for the famed restaurant to open outside of Japan – where seven Gonpachi restaurants dotted around the country – and will offer authentic cuisine which includes sushi, tempura, kushi-style grilled skewers and fresh soba noodles.
Located in Business Bay at the Boulevard at Al Habtoor City, the restaurant is set to transport you to the “Japan of a bygone era” with its “nostalgic atmosphere”.
