Global Japanese-Peruvian restaurant Chotto Matte is to occupy the 20,000sq ft rooftop at the St Michael’s development in Manchester.
The site will be the company's only UK venue outside of London and is due to open in the summer of 2024.
Chotto Matte, which is owned by Kurt Zdesar, has venues in Miami and Toronto and is set to open new restaurants in Doha, San Francisco and Los Angeles by the end of the year.

Gary Neville from Relentless said: "This deal aligns perfectly with our vision for St, Michael’s and the 5* quality we are aspiring to with this project.
"We are pleased to be bringing this world class, innovative brand to Manchester."
Mr Zdesar added: "We are delighted to continue our expansion plans and allow more people to experience the very best of authentic innovative Nikkei cuisine across the UK.
"I am personally very excited to bring Chotto Matte to such an ambitious place. I have been monitoring the city's growth for years but never found the right opportunity until now.
"It is only when meeting with Gary Neville and understanding his vision, with Relentless, for this first of a kind development that I felt a great synergy with our brand.
"The city is growing at an exciting pace and timing couldn’t be better for Chotto Matte to bring diversity to the local landscape. I see this new opening as an important part of our international expansion plan."
Dan Davies from Metis Real Estate, consultants for St Michael’s, said: "St Michael’s is a unique scheme and is the perfect setting for Chotto Matte in Manchester. Known for their spectacular locations, I have no doubt the restaurant will be something special once launched and will complement the wider scheme impeccably."
