This was my favorite lunch place when I was working in the area. It's a small space, almost…read moreexclusively takeaway, so it often looks like there's a long queue, but don't let that discourage you, as the staff are quick and efficient. They're also really nice and polite. Over the course of several visits, I tried the sirloin special, the coronation chicken, the chicken escalope, and the chicken/bacon/sweet corn sandwiches. I also tried the scotch eggs. My favorite was the coronation chicken, which I'd never had before (I don't think we have it in the States), but everything I tried was tasty and I'd be happy to have all of them again. The sandwiches are pretty reasonably priced at under £6, which is nice for an area where it's easy to spend the same amount on a cup of coffee and a muffin. I've always been in and out of the shop in just a few minutes, even when it's busy. Their prime lunch traffic seems to come around 12:30 and later; it was pretty empty the 1 time I went at 12. I've always been able to pay with my American bank card without any issues. Definitely recommend this place if you need lunch in the area! They also have breakfast, although I've never tried it.

Best sandwich place around here. Their chicken escalope on granary bap is my personal favourite…read more Worth the walk if you are further away but lucky for me it's on my doorstep.

Really great spot for a quick bite, be it lunch or getting a quick fix before meeting up with…read moresomeone or heading home. The food is tasty yet relatively healthy when compared to other fast food options nearby. The decor was also nice - spacious and clean with condiments, utensils and napkins fully stocked for self service. Staff are also nice too. I think it's important to set your expectations. This isn't a boutique high end sushi restaurant in Japan... I honestly wouldn't even call Itsu a sushi restaurant! It's a casual, largely self serve, fast food chain with some sushi on its menu. You can't be expecting a sub £7 sushi box to compare to sushi restaurants which charge that price for a single sashimi or nigiri. I enjoyed Itsu and would gladly visit one of their other chains.

I don't think I can call Itsu's sushi.. sushi…read more.. I love jap food, and have travelled around Japan just for their food. Itsu's should not call what they put on the shelf sushi. More like a piece of fish on some rice (and no that's not sushi). Real sushi focuses on the type of rice used, the right amount of vinegar on each grain of rice, the moisture level in the rice. The focus on the grip of the chef is immense, as it translates to whether the sushi falls apart or it's too firm. All of these things come together miraculously, and bonded by some wasabi with a gorgeous piece of generous sashimi. That my friend is called sushi. Itsu's sushi was dry, hard, firm. Sashimi was not fresh and started to dis-color. I personally think it's just unfair how London is dominated by all these bad Jap food chains, and ripping the Londonites of great Japanese food experience. We should mourn for that fish even, as it certainly died in vain. Ok I should stop being dramatic. Reality is that we all know if we wanted great Jap food you won't go Itsu, or these equivalent chains. But personally think it felt more like a mock up than real Jap food at all. Not to be harsh, but i don't think consumers should need to pay so much for such quality.
