Kotetsu
Hotel Ambassador, Lazimpat, Nepal

Kotetsu serves Japanese cooking inside Hotel Ambassador on Lazimpat Road. Seafood is a particular strength, with sushi and sashimi making a useful starting point before exploring the cooked dishes. The compact dining room and city-facing glass frontage give it a different feel from Kathmandu’s courtyard restaurants. Come for a focused Japanese meal, whether a change of pace during a longer stay or an evening built around the kitchen’s freshest available fish.
