Generally good service and ambiance. Grilled salty mackerel is very good, as is their crispy soft shell crab (a classic dish). Calamari is excellent though be warned: it's spicy! If you are a fan try their tuna tartar (see photo).

A little hidden away, but definitely worth the descent into the catacomb-like interior…read more The vibe is intimate and the food is a legit take on Asian Fusion; mostly Japanese-inspired, but definitely with a bit of Chinese and Thai in there. The starters alone are worth a trip, and there were so many I wanted to try, they're actually all I had. Don't judge. They were amazing. The Pumpkin Croquettes were a slightly sweet and crispy version of traditional croquettes, deep-fried to perfection, with a light and smooth finish. Two will set you back a mere £3.10. While the spring rolls are good, I highly recommend the Vegetarian Duck Rolls, made with slightly sweet tofu skin, spring onions, cucumber, and Hoi Sin sauce. Three of those healthy rolls are a whopping £4.60. Finally, the Chicken Yakitori was also a dish worth it's weight in pounds, char-grilled to perfection and doused in a sweet yakitori sauce. A few skewers costs around £4.10. The rest of the menu is not only enormous, but sure to please any seafood-lover, especially sushi. They serve just about any Asian-inspired dish you can think of, including salads, ramen dishes, rice dishes, noodles of many different varieties, tempura, and sushi rolls, with a perfectly-paired sake menu to boot. But really, those side dishes are to die for.

I am not going to detail our choices. There are many choices suitable for every taste. My pro tip: ask what comes with the main dish you are considering.

It's not on the menu! (that would be Korean food), but there's a large menu of deilcious dishes to choose from. Although the interior is modestly decorated and laid out in a simplistic wooden and tiled style, you're spoilt for choice with the food as you can sit at the bar and watch the chef cook the hot dishes Teppanyaki style in front of you or sit at the back at one of the small tables for a more intimate feel; perfect for date night! Special mention for the yakitori skewers which are particularly tasty and something I always have to order when coming here! The price is very reasonable and whilst the staff are mostly not Japanese, they know their stuff and everything I've tried here tastes great and full of flavour. They lose a star only for the fact that on a few occasions when I came for dinner there were a few things on the menu that I always get that were no longer available to order which shouldn't be the case with a busy restaurant. This is a time when you do want to be a Tosa and check out this great restaurant!

(Not actually served in a bento box.) We waited a long time for our food to arrive. I am talking close to 20 minutes without explanation because we never saw wait staff. Then when it arrived there was not a complete meal. My companion's meal came several minutes before my main dish. It was very disorganized as another table's dishes were served and they arrived after us. Aside from the wait, food was good. We had the grilled spiced pork (bulgogi) and tempura. It comes with rice, salad, pickles and miso soup. There were three prawns and four vegetables in the tempura. Pork serve was a good amount. Overall a good value. They seriously need to work on customer service, not friendly at all. Otherwise you can order take away and enjoy a tasty meal.

The service was prompt and friendly. Definitely recommend, especially if you can snag a deal.

I was craving a bit of sushi, so I ordered two pieces of Saba (mackerel), as my "dessert." Cant day enough about this place.

The decorations are really detailed from floor to ceiling and the bathrooms are an amazing experience on themselves . The food is not traditional Japanese or what you could call "Authentic" but it is really well made and adapted to the market. The Japanese tacos are an open face sushi roll stuffed with ultra fresh fish and I loved them. For the main dish I had the Vegetable Udon which are served cold which works great for a hot summer night and has a scrumptious portion of avocado that mixes perfectly with the broth and noodle flavors. We sat on the night top tables by the entrance and they seemed a little bit narrow and we had to move our condiment box away for the table just so that we could have enough space to eat , I would probably ask for a different table at the back so have a little more space and privacy. An amazing place for dinner on a vibrant fun location. Definitely check it out.

Disappointing experience, good food, terrible service, and zero respect for customers…read more We were given a 1h15m dining window, which we accepted. The ordering was slow, and despite writing our order out in the Notes to avoid any confusion, dishes still arrived wrong. It took a lengthy conversation with our server before she even understood what had been sent out incorrectly -- time we simply didn't have. We raised the issue and noticed them we wouldn't be able to finish in time given their mistakes. Their response? After 1h 15min, staff swooped in to clear plates -- while one of our friends was still eating. And they still charge a service fee for this? The food is the one saving grace, but the management is chaotic and the attitude toward customers is unacceptable.

The hamachi kama was nicely charred and still very juicy on the inside. The skewers (yakitori and beer tongue in the picture) were also very tasty and the meat was very tender.

I look forward to visiting this restaurant again to try their other skewers!
