    15.5 miPetticoat Lane, Aldgate

    'Asta' (as I like to simply call it) - I have no idea of the '3' moniker, or indeed where the first…read moretwo went - is as genuine a Japanese canteen as you'll find in London. I was lucky enough to, along with a colleague, be taken here on several occasions for a quick lunch by a client (indicative of how welcoming the Japanese are!) By 'genuine' I mean no dumbed-down menus, no super-slick interiors to detract from potentially average food, and no gimmicks of any kind. The place is staffed and run by Japanese nationals as any self-respecting Japanese restaurant should be - and perhaps more importantly, frequented by them regularly, too. Service is smiling and attentive and no more that it needs to be. The food is inexpensive (~£6-8 for a bento, £7-11 for ramen, udon or donburi) and so tasty. On my most recent trip I had beef ramen with tan tan (sesame paste) soup base, and my brother had salmon teriyaki on brown rice. Both dishes had generous proportions of meat/fish, and the donburi came with a side salad and pickles. The unagi (eel) is also lovely, and the place does an extensive line in pick-your-soup base noodle bowl dishes where you have the option of shoyu, miso, and sesame as mentioned above, among others. I can't speak for the takeaway bento, but they looked pretty solid and of a decent quality. Drinks come in the familiar (Coke etc) and the more, um, 'traditional' - aloe vera juice, Pocari, cold bottled green and black teas and others. This place is rather hidden away on the fringes of the City, behind Aldgate station on the Petticoat Lane side. In many ways it's a great location as it's very much a local haunt, and in others a little frustrating as even if you're working in the City it can be a fair walk to get there and back! My advice would also be to get there early (between midday and half-past) to ensure a seat, as well as before some of the more popular items on the menu disappear. In brief summary, I couldn't really recommend this place enough if you're in the area. You'll get multi-kudos from any friends Nippon friends (or appreciators of their incredible cuisine) and have a lunch to beat the hell out of an uninspired sandwich / soft-drink combo whilst spending a similarly scant amount of your hard-earned cash. As your fellow diners would say: "itedakimas!"

    I wish I could give this place 10 stars because it is simply amazing. For lunch I got a chicken…read moreteriyaki be to box. Their rice is so delicious I could eat it alone without any other dish. The chicken was tender and flavourful and I really liked the fried potato thing that came with the side. Another great thing about Asta is that with bento boxes you can pick a variety of cold side dishes. I recommend the cucumbers and the rice noodles. Will be back!!

    This is my favourite Japanese restaurant in the UK. Located in Chingford, it is only 30 minutes…read moredrive from where I live. Excellent value, for only £17, you can choose anything from the menu and there are over 70 choices, from nigiri, temkai, varies Katsu dishes to fried udon. You name it, they probably have it. This is my 2nd time in this restaurant and the quality has been nothing but very high standard. Will definitely recommend this to anyone who are a big fan of Japs food

    So. This place. Bit off the beaten track, yes. Not all my friends from Zone 1-2 willing to do the…read morelitle trek; no tube to Chingford, I'm afraid - but there's a night bus from Trafalgar Square, good luck. The surroundings are far from posh - like old fashioned gritty, not post gentrification fake gritty. If you're willing to go on the train, though, happy days. Super Sushi's "all you can eat" menu is as good as you'll get for the price. And the price is really great. For the same $ as a cheap main course on a typical japanese restaurant you can park yourself here and eat for 1h45m solid. The restaurant is a bit dark and not too noisy; good for a date if you're past that phase when pigging out in front of them is a no-no. The deal is simple: they'll bring you a list (a wide sheet of paper with hot/cold dishes on both sides) and you tick whatever it is you'd like - maximum 6 items per round; do bring a mate but not several, in order to maximise calorie intake. :) They'll bring the food quickly and give back the list, where you'll pick another six. I always start with a temaki and some nigiri; if you want yellowfin you'll pay a little extra but I never bother as the other fishes are just fine. Next I'd have the yakitori and wasabi prawns because that wasabi sauce is amazing and wasabi rush is my favourite legal high. Garlic fried rice goes well with chicken/pork katsu or teriyaki. The tempura sweet potatoes are good, but be careful because you'll get 5 thick slices and they can be very filling. Remember, you have almost two hours to fill up... To finish I get more nigiri, some uramakis and finally sashimi as "dessert" - BUT mind that the only fish included on the all you can eat price is salmon; all the others charge extra. Minus points: the karaage I had just once and it wasn't their best; the chicken was strangely fatty and sinewy. I don't rate the ramen highly either; I'd stick with the rice here. I wouldn't say this is the BEST japanese in London (might not even be the best one in Chingford; I stand to be corrected here), but it's delicious enough, there is no service charge, the beer is cold, the staff is lovely and friendly and you'll leave happy and almost too full to walk back to whatever form of transport you hopped on to get here. Oh, they do have a la carte menu, but most everyone just go for the fixed price. Up to you, though. :)
