IKI, the new restaurant and bar situated in The Zone, offers a blend of eclectic Japanese flavours and Johannesburg energy.

Rosebank launches Joburg’s summer months of socials, splurges and merry making with a taste of Tokyo.
The bar promises to bring a colourful burst of energy to the Rosebank precinct and will cater to businesses and socialites alike.
‘Iki’ is a Japanese aesthetic that roughly translates into ‘effortlessly chic and classy’.

The Sandton Times joined a select group of media and celebrities at the opening of IKI Bar & Restaurant in Rosebank, which serves up unassuming simplicity that encompasses spontaneity and originality. With an abundance of tasty sushi along with mouth-watering alcoholic and non-alcoholic cocktails, the relaxed evening provided a taste of what to expect from this new dining destination.

IKI is about vibrancy and good energy. This is the place to come to when you want to experience something different; when you want to step out of the ordinary and leave airs and graces behind.
