About
Benkay has long been a fixture of Düsseldorf's Japanese dining scene, situated in what was formerly the Hotel Nikko — itself a landmark of Japan's commercial presence in the city. Executive chef Masao Yoshida oversees a menu encompassing teppanyaki, kaiseki, sushi, sashimi, and tempura, with sushi exclusively prepared by Japanese cooks. The teppanyaki counter seats up to 35 guests who watch skilled chefs perform at the hot iron plate, while the Benkay Restaurant side offers international snacks, authentic sushi, and Rhineland fusion cuisine. Private Tatami rooms add to the ceremonial feel of special-occasion dining. The hotel's direct connections to Japan's corporate community have made this a trusted address for Japanese business guests visiting Düsseldorf.
