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.

Was great to experience some classic Fish & Chips in London. Next I'm going to try the Cod instead…read moreof the Haddock. The haddock was a little too mushy versus being firm and flaky. The tartar sauce went perfectly with the fish, the location was great, and the staff was very helpful. Looking forward to returning.

We had a great casual lunch at Poppies when we were in London last month, a satisfying meal of fish…read moreand chips and beer. Poppies has four locations, but this one on Hanbury Street by Spitalfields Market is the original. We were able to make an online reservation for six like an hour ahead of a Thursday lunchtime visit. We could've walked in, but the restaurant was fairly busy. The space was great, small and fun with a retro American diner aesthetic. There was a jukebox in one corner and tons of knick-knacks and memorabilia on the walls. We were with my parents and our boys, and the vibe was very easy and kid-friendly. We had a young, friendly server who wanted to talk to us about America, where he hoped to study. He was a bright-eyed sweetie, and he took very good care of us. We drank Poppies Pale Ale, which was on tap and quite refreshing on a hot day. And of course, we had lots of fish and chips. We tried both the haddock and the cod, which cost a dollar more. Our waiter said he personally preferred the haddock, and all of us ended up agreeing, though honestly both were delicious, flaky and flavorful, the batter light and crispy. The chips were great, as was the house tartar sauce. We also got sides of garden peas and sliced gherkins, which were both lovely. My kids had fish bites and fries. If you're looking for a chippy (love that word) on this side of London, I'd highly recommend checking out Poppies. It's a welcoming place with excellent fish and chips, exactly what we wanted for lunch that day.
