For more than 40 years, the award-winning Kampachi has been acknowledged to be Kuala Lumpur’s leading Japanese restaurant. We serve the finest air-flown sashimi from the famed Tsukiji market in Tokyo. Our Ginza-trained master chefs are also very passionate about each plate they serve to ensure guests get a taste of an absolutely authentic dining experience.

Our culinary journey has been humbly graced by the presence of royalty, heads of state and celebrities and it remains today, a favourite dining destination of many. Since our initial restaurant opening at Hotel Equatorial Kuala Lumpur, the Kampachi has added four other standalone restaurants located at The Troika, Pavilion, Genting Highlands Premium Outlets and Plaza33.
