About this restaurant

  • Good for special occasions
  • Good for groups
  • Charming
Flesh & Buns Oxford Circus is a stunning modern Japanese restaurant, a stone’s throw from Tottenham Court Road and Oxford Street. The restaurant is lush with greenery, with a beautiful bar area and a wall of waving lucky cats. Leave London at the door, and experience Japanese Izakaya hospitality.

A long-term favourite for fans of Japanese cuisine, Flesh & Buns is where unlimited pillowy, steaming bao buns meet home-smoked, robata-grilled fillings. We make our food from scratch and serve up generous portions, designed to share.

Flesh & Buns is the perfect spot for a date night or a catch up with friends. We can also cater for groups of up to 40 in our beautiful sunken private dining room. It’s perfect for hosting birthday celebrations, special events and corporate lunches.

The restaurant is a short walk from Oxford Circus, Tottenham Court Road and Goodge Street stations.

    Brunch was delicious but we both felt it lacked variety in choice. We were left craving some more veg or salad. Maybe a different starter option like sushi or fried squid would be good. The food and service was too notch regardless.
    Flesh & Buns Oxford CircusResponded 4 days ago
    Thank you for sharing your feedback — we're so glad you enjoyed the brunch and truly appreciate your kind words about the food and service! Your suggestions regarding variety and lighter options like more veg, salad, or alternative starters such as sushi or fried squid are really valuable. We'll certainly take this on board as we continue to refine our menu. We hope to welcome you back soon for another great experience!
