  • "Unfortunately, the pumpkin croquettes were a bit of a letdown. They were quite bitter, which made them difficult to eat."
  • "Food is not as good as expected. Sashimi was not that fresh and the taste was just so so."

Service

Pros:

  • "Since it's normally packed and a tight squeeze inside, there's a great cozy atmosphere."
  • "Great to go with your family or a group of friends."
  • "Reasonable price, very nice and helpful staffs, fresh sashimi, good enough tempura and big portion bento."
  • "Management always provides outstanding service."
  • "Very polite and energetic, respectful staff and the old sushi master chef behind the bar really has some great masterful skill."
  • "The staff are very accommodating."
  • "Nothing too much for our smiling waiter."

Cons:

  • "One of the worst restaurant experiences, due to a super loud rude obnoxious family of 10 people."
  • "Visited twice, first time experience was great, however second time was unpleasant. We were allocated upstairs and the waitress kept ignoring us on purpose."
  • "We also had to stand outside for over 20 minutes after the opening time because they wouldn't open at the specified hours."
  • "Overcharged us, as well."
  • "The food was excellent, BUT the service is horrendous, the staff are rude since queueing I can tell how bad it is."
  • "An hour into our dinner the waiter came over and slammed the bill down and rudely told us we had to leave."
  • "The manager should not have people like this in the restaurant."

Value

Pros:

  • "The food is excellent with a broad (maybe too broad) menu. Bento boxes are excellent and great value."
  • "Great value for price."
  • "Prices are really good for London."
  • "The most delicious katsu and the best value for money at £9 for a double portion which is plenty enough for two adults to share!"
  • "Highly recommend and prices are very affordable."
  • "The prices are cheap for London, the food is amazing."
  • "Very good quality for a very reasonable price 👍👍."

Cons:

  • "Just be careful not to over order, the pictures on the menu do make the portions look small."
  • "The menu prices did seem great at first but once we tasted the food plus the additional service charge, it ended up not being worth it at all."
  • "Not a very good quality of food the price is very good tho."
  • "The cleanliness of the restaurant was visibly poor."
  • "The food didn’t taste that good even we were starving."
  • "Lunch cost £65... rather spend at some all you can eat."
  • "The food in itself was good and reasonably priced but the service charge was hefty."
