Kazoku is a Pan-Asian restaurant and sushi bar on Old Christchurch Road, on the stretch running east from Bournemouth town centre through Lansdowne. It's built its name locally around fresh sushi and sashimi rather than a single national cuisine, blending Japanese technique with broader Pan-Asian dishes.
The food
Sushi is the centrepiece, nigiri, sashimi and a long list of maki and specialty rolls, prepared to order and served with the usual ginger and wasabi. Beyond the sushi counter, the menu widens into other Japanese and Pan-Asian dishes, and there are vegetarian options for anyone not eating raw fish. As with any restaurant, dishes and availability change over time, so it's worth checking the current menu on Kazoku's own website before you visit.
Good to know
Kazoku is open for lunch and dinner Monday to Saturday and closed on Sundays. It works both as a sit-down restaurant, with tables that can be booked in advance, and as a takeaway or delivery option, with online ordering through its own site as well as third-party platforms. Its position on Old Christchurch Road puts it within easy reach of the town centre and the Lansdowne area, making it a convenient stop whether you're eating in or grabbing food to go.
Kazoku is one of a growing number of sushi and Pan-Asian spots dotted around Bournemouth. For more places to eat nearby, browse our food & drink guide, or see what else is going on in the town centre in our things to do guide.
