This celebration of the timeless Japanese fireside grilling technique promises to ignite the senses and warm the soul.
Robatayaki, which means “stoveside cooking,” is a revered Japanese technique that has been perfected over centuries. Imagine chefs grilling an array of fresh, high-quality ingredients over an open fire, their skilled hands bringing out the natural, vibrant flavors of the food, giving each bite an unparalleled depth and richness.

The bold, modern space features tropical rainforest motifs reflected in the brightly patterned furnishings and curtains, with traditional Asian art and warm lighting creating an inviting mood for an intimate, relaxed meal.
Far & East’s Robatayaki menu is sophisticated and diverse, featuring a selection of carefully grilled meats, fresh seafood and seasonal vegetables. Vegetarians can enjoy the crispy Tofu Katsu Kushiyaki, an earthy blend of Goma, Asparagus and Kinoko, and the sweet and flavourful Grilled Onigiri Miso. For seafood and meat lovers, the Shichimi Togarashi Teriyaki Gendara offers a sweet and spicy treat, while the Spicy Garlic Kushiyaki Tako adds a bold and fiery touch. The highlight of this dish is the Grilled Lobster, which is paired sumptuously with truffle and fresh soy sauce, promising a truly exquisite experience. Far & East’s chefs are artists with a deep understanding of grilling techniques, ensuring that each dish is a perfect harmony of flavours and textures. Sourced directly from Japan, the ingredients are prepared with the utmost precision, ensuring that the true essence of Robatayaki is brought out.
Enjoy the dance of fire and flavours in an atmosphere that evokes the essence of the East. At Four Seasons Hotel Bengaluru, every meal is a special event, and every guest leaves with a story to tell.
