Japanese sake concept Edo Izakaya has signed for a 1,894 sq ft debut site at 154 Old Street in London. Founded by Sonny Huang, owner of the popular West End sushi restaurant Robata, Edo Izakaya will open in December at the JP Morgan Asset Management owned development.
Tony Levine, director of leasing at Shelley Sandzer, which was appointed by GPE to lease the development prior to its sale to JP Morgan, said: “We are so pleased to have secured a debut site for Sonny’s new concept following the success of Robata in Soho. Our curation of F&B concepts in JP Morgan’s Old Street portfolio emphasises Shelley Sandzer’s effectiveness of collaborative relationships with landlords and brands. Our approach allows us to match the right operators to the right locations, allowing both to flourish in key areas of the capital.”
Shelley Sandzer & BGP acted for JP Morgan. Edo Izakaya dealt direct.
