Yaki Soul is a modern Japanese izakaya located in Bukit Bintang, Kuala Lumpur, and proudly Malaysia’s first sand-grill izakaya. Inspired by Japan’s vibrant street dining culture, we offer an energetic and immersive dining experience that blends bold flavours with warm hospitality.
Our menu features a wide selection of Japanese street-style grilled dishes, fresh sashimi, handcrafted highball cocktails, and an extensive range of sake and whiskey. We are especially known for our signature sand-grilled fish, prepared using traditional Japanese techniques to lock in texture, moisture, and deep flavour — a delicacy rarely found outside Japan.
We started Yaki Soul with one simple idea: to bring the soul of Japanese izakaya dining to KL — casual, expressive, full of energy and made for sharing. It’s not just about food, it’s about vibes, bites and unites. From live music to late-night vibes, every part of our experience is built around good food, good drinks, and good company. We serve a diverse community of diners — from tourists to working professionals and strive to create a space where everyone feels welcome.
At the core of Yaki Soul is a team that shares a common passion for service excellence and continuous growth. Behind the scenes, we’re a tight-knit, passionate team that believes in working hard, supporting each other, and growing together. Every member of our team is trained not only in operations, but in the art of hospitality — empowered to engage guests, offer personalised recommendations, and deliver memorable moments with every visit.
