I M Teppanyaki & Wine (鑄·鐵板燒)

OVERVIEW

I M Teppanyaki & Wine is a MICHELIN-starred Japanese teppanyaki restaurant located in Causeway Bay. Helmed by Chef Mok Kit Keung (Mok San), the restaurant is known for its innovative approach to teppanyaki, blending traditional Japanese techniques with premium ingredients from around the world.

The restaurant is small and intimate, with counter seating that allows diners to watch the chefs at work. The atmosphere is refined yet relaxed, with a focus on the culinary performance of teppanyaki cooking. The wine list is extensive and well-curated, complementing the rich, savoury flavours of the grilled dishes.

The cuisine focuses on seasonal seafood and premium meats cooked to perfection on the teppan grill. Signature dishes often include abalone, lobster, Wagyu beef, and Hokkaido scallops, each prepared with minimal intervention to let the quality of the ingredients shine.
