What to Expect at Bamboo Mat Canary Wharf
The new Bamboo Mat Canary Wharf restaurant spans an impressive 364 square metres across two floors, offering seating for 82 guests.
The layout has been carefully designed to showcase every aspect of the restaurant’s Nikkei cuisine, featuring:
- A stylish raw bar on the ground floor
- An elegant cocktail bar
- A dedicated robata grill
- Expert sushi preparation

The interiors have been created by Gynda Gourmet Hospitality Management Group alongside Pic Construction Group, delivering a contemporary space inspired by the meeting of Japanese craftsmanship and Peruvian energy.

Nikkei Dining Comes to Canary Wharf


Since opening its Stratford location in 2022, Bamboo Mat has quickly become one of London’s leading destinations for Nikkei cuisine—a fusion of Japanese culinary techniques with bold Peruvian flavours.
The menu at Bamboo Mat Canary Wharf will feature premium sushi alongside Japanese favourites with a Peruvian twist, including:
- Fresh sushi and sashimi
- Robata-grilled dishes
- Teriyaki
- Ceviche
- Tiradito
These will be complemented by an expertly curated cocktail menu inspired by both Asian and Peruvian ingredients.
Bamboo Mat Joins Canary Wharf’s Growing Food Scene
Canary Wharf has rapidly evolved into one of London’s most exciting dining destinations, welcoming an ever-growing collection of independent restaurants and internationally inspired concepts.
Speaking about the launch, owner Denis Gobjila said:
“Bamboo Mat Canary Wharf has been a long time in the making and we’re excited to unveil a completely unique design and larger site for our celebrated Nikkei offering. We’ve been watching Canary Wharf turn into a real foodie destination over the last few years, and we can’t wait to bring a new dimension to its increasingly diverse restaurant scene.”
With its striking interiors, premium sushi offering and distinctive Japanese-Peruvian menu, Bamboo Mat Canary Wharf looks set to become one of the area’s most exciting new restaurant openings this autumn.
