Sashimi was super fresh and delicious. A little skimpy on the daikon oroshi serving with the shrimp tempura. The only off note is that probably in an effort to be generous on the sushi portion, the salmon and tuna (but not the bass) were quite thickly cut. Of course no authentic Japanese restaurant will ever serve a portion of four (which would have been the way to provide similar weight of fish and more expected sensation)... so I guess that's a minor quibble. If I were a regular, I'd be tempted to go ahead and order the larger 5-pieces, and ask the chef to cut 6-7 thinner pieces.

BRUHHHH you guys give ginger like a spoon for the boat sushi? Ginger should not be an extra if you eat sushi properly you need a ginger please - Self proclaimed to be "authentic" but use horseradish wasabi LOL - Match green tea so small and quite expensive - Paid £60 for comfort sushi? Quite ridiculous i would pay CAD30 in Vancouver for something like this lol Summary: The self-proclaimed authentic sushi is a convenient comfort sushi in my opinion. Just for your information I have eaten so much omakase and make sushi by myself that I am really aware what is good sushi. The sushi here is even more backwater than Canadian sushi lol. In my opinion, you should only come here for the cheap bento box for it to be worth it other than that pass it do not come here pretty sure there are better sushi in London that is more worth it. I hope this review can help you making better choice for you eating the right sushi in London. Cheers! Do no hesitate to ask question if you have. Anyway, this is not recommended for me.

Good ambience, good attentive service, generally clean (tough the toilet could use some improvement and it is freezing cold in the dead of winter). Their shabushabu hot pot is very good. Fresh thinly sliced beef. Portion is quite big and more than I can handle, but you could share it between two people. Their Japanese fried octopus is quite unique. Do try it. That Japanese seafood soup is a must try especially in winter (generous varieties of real seafood, delicious fish soup base). The Korean fried pork belly is succulent and comes on a sizzling plate. It's intended as an appetizer, but you can order double portion for sharing if you have a big group.

We added one on each end and made it work. We started with various appetizers around the table. I shared agedashi tofu (4 pieces) and gyoza (fried, 5 pieces) with a colleague while others enjoyed sushi and salads and soup. Gyoza was better than the agedashi tofu. For the main, I got the pork tobanyaki - pork and mixed vegetables marinated in spicy chilli sauce. It was nicely spiced with thin strips of pork and vegetables (onions and peppers mostly). I ate mine without the white rice that others ordered. Portion was generous, particularly after all the starters. The staff did a great job of keeping up, despite us wanting separate checks (thanks to different companies' travel policies).

We reserved a table for a Saturday night though it was not necessary…read more There is a vegan sushi set that includes 10 pieces. Recommend the gyoza. The food was average. However the service slow and inattentive. A meal for 2 and drinks was around 60.

please take know that the address should read as:…read more 8 Station Parade Uxbridge Road Ealing Common London W5 3LD also the map shown is indicating a wrong location! and the nearest tube station is ealing common and not kew gardens! our original plan was to try out sushi hiro nearby. unfortunately hiro was fully booked for the evening and we settled for kiraku. basically, kiraku builds itself as an izakaya restaurant. lot's of japanese patrons which is always a good sign. comprehensive menu with a bit of everything. the sashimi moriwase special was surprisingly very good. very fresh and nicely cut. the shoku carpaccio was a nice sashimi salad with garlic and olive oil. their kaki fry was well fried. the salmon porridge was simple and comforting. the grilled eggplant with cheese and miso was a little over salty. kushiyaki was ok but not outstanding. i like their crispy chicken skin. their beef tongue was nicely crunchy and chewy. the pork rolled with shiso leaf was slightly too porky in taste. the chicken ball was ordinary and so was the chicken. as for the chicken wing, one was burnt and the other was under cooked. maki wise, the ones we ordered were the kiraku special and soft shell crab. kiraku special had a generous serving of ikura but i couldnt taste any crispy salmon skin. the soft shell crab one was ordinary. in both, the rice grains seem too starchy and big. the biggest led down, food wise, has to be the special of the day which was a deep fried iberico pork. too oily outside and too dry inside. definitely not worth the money and long wait! for dessert we struggled to make the staff know what we wanted. bascially, 2 macha ice cream with azuki beans and 1 kuri ice cream with azuki beans. after going back and forth for 10 minutes, she finally understood what we wanted! sigh. my biggest complain for kiraku has to be their wait staff! very slow service and no promptness in refilling our tea despite many reminders to do so! also the food took ages to come. so much so that we even forgot we had ordered them. having said that, they must be doing well as they were packed by 8pm. i'll be back but i'll be more careful what i order in the future. Opening Hours: Tuesday - Sunday (Monday Closed) Lunch: 12 - 3pm (Last orders 2:30pm) Dinner: 6 - 11pm (Last orders 10pm)

Camembert and fried pork sushi roll?…read more Stop and imagine that for yourself. Gooey smelly French cheese, fried pork cutlet and a little bit of chutney all wrapped up in seaweed and rice and then served with the usual dish of soy sauce and wasabi. How do you think that combination will go? Hint, don't dip it in the soy/wasabi stuff. So I think from the start of this review you'll realise that Kiraku are not the traditional sushi sellers that nearby five-star Atari-Ya are. They do sell some good cuts of raw fish as sashimi, nigiri and donburi but they also do a whole lot more - salads, roasted tofu, crispy crab and the aforementioned cheese and pork maki. I'm pretty sure I still prefer the conservative sushi three doors down, especially as the mackerel at Kiraku is annoyingly the pickled kind. But Kiraku must be doing something good as it's very packed every night and usually with young Ealing Japanese having fun with the many sakes.

I ordered the Shirodashi ramen which had very generous toppings - 5 or 6 slices of grilled pork, bamboo shoots, seaweed and half an egg. However, the noodles and broth were very plain. Noodles were not authentic egg noodles and the broth lacked much flavour. I added red pepper and chilli oil. For a place with several types of ramen, they should refine their broth. My friend had the Kare Burosu and she enjoyed it. It had a bit more depth to it with the curry broth and thick udon noodles. Tofu was nicely charred and lots of toppings. Our service was intermittent. They were quick to take our order but then were hard to get attention to pay our bill. Overall it was a good atmosphere and okay for a work lunch but not somewhere I would rush back to soon.

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.

Atari-Ya Ealing used to be the much adored and awarded Sushi Hiro, and then Hiro-san apparently…read morepacked it all in and headed back to the land of the rising sun. So what next? A few months later the Atari-Ya sushi fish sellers decided to take over the spot, rename it and get it back going again. How has it changed? The name and the crush to get a reservation. That's it. The menu, the staff, the decor and feel are all identical to the Sushi Hiro days. In fact the fish is the same too, as Hiro-San probably got his from the Atari-Ya sellers anyway. So this is just the old and much loved Sushi Hiro without Hiro-San and without waiting 2 weeks for a friday night table. It's classic sushi only, with amazingly fresh cuts of the best fish. It's lo-key, affordable sushi that you'd get in the best suburbs of Tokyo, except here you're getting it in one of London's suburbs. Well worth the trip on the District Line.

Ah my little slice of Japan in Ealing. How i love this neighborhood! I'm so lucky to have my…read morelittle corner of asia and this little shop is a lovely addition. It's been open for about a year now and replaced another sushi shop that that was hard to gain entry. On a wednesday night, they had tables and seats at bars with reserved signs but luckily we got a table after 1 couple to leave. This establishment really only does sushi and sashimi related items. So don't come here looking for something cooked. No teriyaki anything. No colourful maki rolls. It's plainly Sushi type, maybe a little seaweed salad and edamame but honestly not too much else. So for those serious sushi lovers, this is your place. I love this korean dish called Hwe dup bap and the closest equivalent is Chirashi. The only difference is that it's with vinegar rice and no korean hot sauce. Their chirashi was excellent. Sweet scallops, octopus, tuna, salmon, the temperature for the rice was just rice and excellently made. In each bowl of their miso soup, comes 2 little neck clams that aren't overcooked. I love places that pay attention small details. I would have given this place 4 except that i didn't care for the stale smell of fish. I know what you're thinking but no, it's not ok to have that in a sushi establishment. I know plenty of sushi bars without it. Unless I'm at fish market, I find it offensive. I will do carry out!! =)
