What really sealed the 5-stars was the mochi finish. I ordered the green tea mochi and the chocolate ganache. First I ate the green tea one which I thought was the best mochi I've ever tasted.

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.

It's been absolute ages since I've been here, but this place and the incredible Kikuchi are…read more(through countless hours devoted to searching), your only bets for good, traditional style sushi in London. We ended dropping a lot of money here but the sashimi was as fresh as it gets and the sake was flowing, so there you go. It only gets 4 stars from me because I'm still convinced the best of the best is Kikuchi and nothing else can measure up around here. However, if you're in northwest London my bet is you could do a lot worse.

A nice little restaurant tucked away from the hustle and bustle…read more I found this gem out of laziness; not wanting to travel far for food. Situated in Willesden Green I didn't know what to expect. However, I was pleasantly surprised when I arrived. Sushi Say is worth a visit if traditional-quality-no-frills Japanese food is what you're after! With the trend of fusion food, there are very few quality traditional Japanese restaurants in London. That being said, Sushi Say is by far one of the most authentic Japanese places I've been too. Everything is fresh and the emphasis is on simplicity and quality. You can really appreciate the quality of the produce and ingredients. The delicately prepared Toro and Yellowtail just melts in your mouth. The sashimi and rolls are generously portioned and beautifully cut; everything is balanced and tastes as it should. Service is friendly and attentive. I'll definitely be back!

My friend forever kept telling me about this little gem in harrow, I never believed her until I…read moretried it for myself! The best sushi in north west london!!! Fresh, juicy, full of flavour, and its not just sushi that they do, they also do various hot dishes, cold dishes, noodles, bento, you name it they have it! The menu is pretty vast, upon arrival you are welcomed with a pot of green tea and miso, goes down really well. We got the futomaki dragon roll: king prawn, avocado, pickled cucumber, unagi sauce and topped off with fish eggs, you get 8 pieces on a plate for about £11, really good dish to share. Also got the spicy edamame, ebi fry and we each got a bento box. I went for the veggie tofu option and my friend for the chicken katsu. Bento boxes are about £6-9 and you get a lot of variety such as salad, sticky rice with beansprouts, the meat or the tofu and tempura vegetables, also comes with a sauce or sesame oil. If there is a group, works out cheaper, as it was just me and my friend it was £30 each with the addition of green tea, which isn't actually bad. The service is good, we went on a Tuesday afternoon, peak time during lunch hour rush and actually the waitresses did really well. Looking forward to going back and trying out the rest of the menu.

I love their deliciously fried chicken and salmon box that comes with a really good mix of cabbages. Price wise, it's a great value as well, a box that will make you definitely full (unless you eat half of a piglet for breakfast;p) cost around £5-£6. What can I say more - best street japanese takeaway I've eaten in London! Only one thing could be improved - please wear gloves while preparing food!;)

So I was gutted not to visit this place when it was Sushi Say as it was supposed to be amazing…read more Apparently the husband and wife who owned that have retired and it has been bought by another company - hence the name change to Sushi Masa. We came on a Monday night and were the only diners - a tad worrying but it's new and a Monday. A few more people did come in after us. Service was attentive and quick. The menu is extensive and a little overwhelming as there's a lot of stuff that sounds good. The actual decor of the place is pretty simple but perfectly pleasant. You can also eat at the bar if you want to watch the sushi being prepared. We had tuna sushi roll with jalapenos which I really enjoyed. They were generous with the amount of fish too. For main I had salmon teriyaki which again was a huge portion slathered in teriyaki sauce. I did enjoy this but it was a tad salty for my liking. It doesn't get 5 stars because it seems a little pricey for sushi - especially in Willesden - but I did enjoy it and would go back to try some of other sushi dishes.

Their manner is very nasty and the food made us sick. We…read morehave been there for lunch but we didn't liked the taste of the food. It smelled like rotten eggs. We could leave the restaurant or even ask for another food with a better taste and smell but instead we tried to solve the problem by kindly asking them to bring us some parsley to add into our food to not feeling the bad smell and taste. We just wanted to be good with them. But after around 5 minutes discussion in the kitchen they came out with a pinch of parsley (not even exaggerating) and when I asked them for more parsley at least 2 pinch they said we don't give this service. They really don't know how to behave with costumer specially when they are trying to be good with you. In order not to harm their business by returning the food, we wanted to solve the problem with parsley, but they really didn't deserve it, while Sainsbury's is right in front of their restaurant and the price of a bag of parsley is only around 69 pence. Let's not forget that we got diarrhea and the bad smell of the food was because of its corruption.

My current favourite restaurant in London. Why you ask? Well it's close to my neighbourhood. I can…read morealmost always get a table - the most I have to wait has been about 5 minutes. The prices are reasonable. It's spacious. Service is wonderful. And most importantly the food is just great!!! I mean wholesome - great portions and Japanese food as you would want it. I have probably taken everyone I know here now, and the staff all recognise me - I want to give a big shout out to the Chinese lady in the pink kimono and black framed glasses who has the biggest smile - and the Chinese maths student from Bristol. Those two are great and always recognise me when I come in. I appreciate the reception. The other staff are awesome too. So for anyone new to Eat, they present you with a massive menu - I mean it could be the size of someone's thesis, so you have to carefully go through the menu and pick what you like. The bento boxes are great choices - great value for good food, I tend to get the £9 chicken Teri and salmon bento. But then there is so much more- the gyoza is awesome, the agadashi tofu - delish and my all time favourite (for all those aubergine lovers a must have) the nasu dengaku. Those are merely scratching the surface of the menu. The black cod is also to die for. There is so much more - it's just endless joy. Also note: This is Eat Tokyo that does Shabu Shabu. Yelp you need to remove Shabu Shabu from the title because it's just another Eat Tokyo in London like the rest of them. The only difference is that they do Shabu Shabu too.

A 4 person sashimi boat for £30??!!!? I can see why there are cooooonstant queues for this place…read more We lucked out when we arrived without a booking - only having to wait 10 minutes. We ordered a bunch of a la carte dishes (the pumpkin croquettes were delicious) along with the amazing value sashimi boat. Although the sashimi was fresh the cuts were a bit too thick and obviously weren't from grade A fish (whatever that means). Still, amazing value, especially for those with expandable stomachs.

This restaurant is one of the best Japanese restaurants that I have been to in London…read more With the low prices, big portions and decent quality, it is probably the best value for money restaurants in the city. This is especially true with the bento and the sushi dishes with bentos for under £7 and sushi platters (10 pieces) for under £10. The quality of the food is as good as you will get anywhere for a normal mid range Japanese restaurant. The place also feels really authentic and is in Golders Green which is a Japanese restaurant and grocery shopping hot spot. The diversity and sheer choice of what you can get here was the most impressive thing. There must of been at least 100-150 different dishes, but all looked so different (everything from sushi, to udon to grilled meats to desserts) that I had trouble deciding what to go for Also this is one of the very few Japanese places that seems to take its Sake and Shochu really seriously, which is great Overall, really impressive!

Should be called Don't Eat Tokyo. Worst sushi experience. Capped off by a manager arguing and…read moreembarrassing us...loudly insisting that the food was good...lol, we were the ones eating it. Most of the fish would have been been better off being used as chum on a deep sea charter fishing boat. Very low quality fish. We ordered the sashimi boat to get a good sampling of their sushi abilities. Absolute failure. Tuna was in-edible. Could nit even chew it up it was so tough and it was really smelly. Gross!! I almost barfed at the table, and we eat ALOT of sushi. I am not exaggerating, i was dry heaving. Maybe my standards are too high i don't know. One of the guys in our party was pulling BIG bones out of his fish pieces! Yummy!!! Wth!?! A non sushi person we brought ordered the chicken katsu, simple enough. They brought a small mountain of chicken! Yay! Except that it was half raw and black inside...that was when i decided to talk to a manager who insisted everything was fine! Haha fine to who? I showed her our napkins, FILLED with fish we had to spit out...and bones! And raw/black chicken:) I gladly paid for everything, and now we get to share our wonderful experience with the world. Either way i was sharing...the money i don't care about...thanks for ruining our evening...that's what i care about. Yellowtail rolls were good. We ordered alot of food, and the rolls were ok. But the sashimi omg...so bad. Buyer beware. I would 100% not recommend this place unless u want to roll the dice...
