Located at Enric Granados 63, just minutes from Passeig de Gràcia, Arko offers a culinary experience that combines the purity of Japanese cuisine with Mediterranean and Latin American influences.

A different Japanese restaurant in Barcelona

What sets Arko apart from other Japanese restaurants in Barcelona is our commitment to the highest quality produce and traditional Japanese techniques. Our Koshihikari rice, considered the finest in the world, is seasoned with aged red vinegar from a Japanese house founded in 1937. All our fish are free from antibiotics, hormones and anisakis, and the soy sauce we use is gluten-free. These details make the difference between a conventional Japanese restaurant and an authentic gastronomic experience.

Sushi, robata and Nikkei cuisine in Eixample

Our menu spans from sushi classics –nigiri, sashimi, uramaki– to dishes cooked on the robata, the Japanese binchotan charcoal grill.
