Finally a sushi restaurant like NYC, I can't believe it. We have tries a number of places and…read morealmost gave up. The Salmon sashimi was the largest I have ever had and it was fresh and delicious. The eel was top notch, I highly recommend this place to people who want to eat REAL sushi in London.

My boyfriend and I are big sushi lovers, so after seeing that after only 3 months of being in…read morebusiness, Oka was already rated #2 for all restaurants in Kingston, we had to visit. We went along on a Thursday night, it was quite quiet, apparently uncharacteristically so according to our waitress. Straight away we received a friendly welcome, and the good service lasted all through our meal. I'm a vegetarian and ordered the vegetable sushi assortment, and a side of fried tofu. When my food arrived, I was amazed at how beautifully presented and fresh everything looked. The food didn't disappoint, it was tasty, fresh and left me feeling the way all good Japanese food does; full and content without feeling bloated or stuffed. My boyfriend had the spicy prawns and mixed sushi, he was blown away by the prawns, which were a special on the day we visited, and also very happy with the sushi. The price isn't super cheap, we paid about £15 per head, but we felt that for the quality of the food and the overall experience, it was more than fair. Will be recommending Oka to all my friends.

This was the first time ordering sushi from here so got a range of different things to try out -…read moreSalmon Teriayaki With Rice, Chicken Karaage Burrito, Tofu Katsu Curry, Seafood Yakisoba, Chicken Udon, Maki Selection Box. The Udon and yakisoba were the best two dishes with the most flavor. My sons had the salmon and burrito and quite enjoyed them. The tofu katsu curry was okay probably wouldn't get that again and the maki selection box items didn't really have any flavor so we would try the sushi rolls next time. Overall good quality food and will go back again to try some different menu items.

Soo much pretty packaging...Soo colourful...and HELLO KITTY SWEETIES!…read more My local Japanese supermarket is rather handy if i don't get a chance to pop in to Rice wine or The Japan centre in London. Kewpie mayonnaise, miso paste, noodles, pickled daikon, hi chews and frozen gyoza are all staples on my shopping list. It costs about £5 for a bag of 30 frozen gyoza, which on first glance seems expensive..but if i am willing to pay £4 at Wagamamas for 5, then it works out to be a bargain! They have an extensive fresh fish counter, and make sushi to order. Damn good sushi, and i don't even like sushi that much. The staff are always very friendly, and it's open til 7pm on a Sunday which just impresses me.

Really pleasent and friendly staff. Growing up in Vancouver Canada and then spending a lot time in San Fran I have a high bar for sushi fish. The salmon, tuna, scallops, and surf clam was really good. The salmon on hand that day didn't look that nice in terms of skin trimming etc but it tasted excellent. The scallops and surf clam did not smell at all fishy as they usually have a very short shelf life. Tuna was above average but not premium. Overall a great experience and I recommend.

You know the food is good when you start to get a little emotional…read more I really wish the owners had spent a little more time with the marketing of this place - and if I had any clue about that stuff, I'd want to help them out! This used to be a breakfast/deli like place and they've kept the original awning and added some red lanterns outside. When I first saw this place open up, I raised my snotty little Asian nose and thought I was too good for it. Glad I was wrong! After reading Maja's review, I had to try it. What's even better is that they deliver for free for orders £15 and over (plus I was really lazy to cook or pick up anything) and they take card payments over the phone if you're low on cash. They said 30 minutes but the delivery guy rocked up in 15! The Volcano roll was really good! Interesting to have cabbage as the roll base but something new. I ordered the Ohayo set C and I'm telling you, each and every piece was so fresh and really just melted in my mouth. When it comes down to Nigiri or Maki, the magic is really in the rice (of course after the fish). The rice is perfectly seasoned and sticky (like it should be!). Looks like they have some good lunch specials so will have to try out other things on their menu. This is the start of a beautiful, and hopefully long term, relationship. Please support them! It'll break my heart if they leave me.

We finished the meal with red bean mochi and we received some complementary orange to end A nice neighbourhood Japanese restaurant but only 4 stars due to the price

One of the best Japanese restaurants I've been to. Lovely sweet lemon and honey tea to start -…read moreperfect for my sore throat. We each chose the bento box option as it seemed the best value. Flavoursome miso soup, and the contents of the bento itself was well seasoned and beautifully presented. We also shared some exquisite tuna avocado sushi. Staff were patient and courteous (we took a while deciding what to order). It's not the cheapest sushi, but it's very popular with the locals, and with such delicious flavours served in a relaxed setting, I can see why. I can't wait to return and try a wider selection!

Soon after I started working at an office located in Wimbledon, I've discovered quite a few…read moreJapanese places within walking distance of my new office. I am now going regularly to three different places, and Kokoro right at Wimbledon station is one of them. The little shop has proven to be quite popular among local workers and pupils, as it can get incredibly busy at times. But usually, the friendly and efficient team copes surprisingly well with the qeueue of people, and most of the time, you won't have to wait too long. I really like Kokoro, I think their Chicken Katsu Curry is good value for money. The curry sauce has the right thickness, the sticky rice is cooked well and they are generous with the crispy chicken. Only once I was was not entirely happy with the chicken pieces, because some small bits were a bit tough. It still makes me smile when I see them cutting the chicken strips with scissors - I would never have thought of that, but it is an efficient and fast way to cut fried chicken in a small and busy kitchen. While it is primarily a takeaway, they also have a few tables and I have spent many lunch breaks there. So far, I always found a place to sit, even when there was a long queue. Overall, I am very satisfied with the food and the service at Kokoro. They offer quick and consistently tasty food. The staff - mostly Japanese, I guess - are very nice and always have a smile on their face. If you are looking for something delicious and filling, I can really recommend Kokoro just outside Wimbledon station in the Centre Court shopping complex.

I had the catsu chicken curry and rice, i have also tried the chicken curry. They both tasted pretty plain to me, I asked for the hottest dish and could not taste a hint of spice. The dish comes with plain rice and meat and sauce, very basic. You do have the option of noodles. It is however really big portions, I had the small meal and struggled to finish it. So that was good but I think I have learnt my lesson and probably wont go back, it just lacked flavour for me.
