"The location is excellent, and as a group of vegetarians, we thoroughly enjoyed our meals. The vegetable ramen and miso aubergine were particularly delicious. However, the restaurant was quite cold due to a significant drop in temperature, and they had to rely on portable heaters. I would love to visit again during a warmer month to fully appreciate the experience. The staff were attentive and polite, and overall, it provided great value for money."

"was here twice. first service was brilliant. exceptionally friendly and efficient server. the second time was the exact opposite. they were not in a hurry to serve and generally extremely rude and outpatient. they seemed to be upset when I asked for a recommendation, and after the choice of a beer that they ran randomly out of them, just went well, I don't know, then should I go? it is not as if I had tried all animals and none selected, I literally first tasted one they offered and asked for a pint. very strange attitude. also someone mentioned prices. yes, I was charged 6 pfunds for this setting and half a pint. after my second visit I can't really recommend the place, I'm not the only one who complains about rude fellow workers. Maybe the owner should really look into what's going on."

"I was with my daughter and her boyfriend the night before her 21st birthday. We were confronted by a loud and pushy waiter who encouraged them to choose expensive cocktails and his favourite menu items. The bill came to £168 with what appeared to be a mandatory service charge of 12.5% ...... certainly not good value for money, as we all left the restaurant still feeling hungry, after spending, I repeat, £168 for 3 people! There was also no reference to my daughter's birthday, even though I asked for it to be celebrated on the restaurant's Special Instructions. Will probably not go there again."

"I don't usually leave bad reviews for restaurants because it's someone's business (I think I've only done so once before ...... but this meal was SO exceptionally disappointing. The decor of the restaurant is really cute and welcoming, but that's about it. The rice in all our sushi was overcooked and wet, so that it felt stodgy and frankly just unenjoyable to eat (especially because they used so much of it per sushi piece to bulk out the mass. At one point I thought to myself, sadly, that chain shop sushi tasted better and cost 1/3 the price... Like the rice was sticking to the plate when you tried to lift it, because of how wet it was. The fish slices were thin and poorly flavoured (the negi toro in particular didn't taste fresh to me . And to top it all off we waited an hour for our food and only got it after prompting the staff who were individually lovely to us, but seemed overworked and stretched thin. I would not recommend coming to this restaurant; as an Edinburgh resident I feel there are other Japanese restaurants in the city that offer better taste and value for money. I rarely get so disappointed after a meal that I feel have to tell someone, but this place finally did it I guess!!! Such a saddening taste experience for the cost."

"we enjoyed some really delicious sushi in michiko sushino, but the hectic atmosphere in the restaurant and bad service tasted an otherwise beautiful experience. we sat right at the door and stayed very aware that the people come and go during the meal. Not the blame of the restaurant, but some of the other guests were very loud, with loud arguments, trying to calm weeping babies (zwinen) or try to control mischievous dogs (we were surprised that they are allowed in the restaurant, regardless of the famous roam dog owner). it was also difficult to get the waiter's attention and it seemed just a few employees for a busy restaurant, again perhaps not her fault, as we know that it is difficult to rent in the hospitality right now. Finally there was only one toilet that, for a restaurant sitting over 30 is not enough and lead to queuing. However, the bill was reasonable and again, eating was really good what is the main thing. not sure that we will soon return what is a scandal, as it is local for us."

"The restaurant was closed and no one contacted us. We had planned to celebrate my mum's 60th birthday there, so we were really disappointed. Thankfully, we found Sushinoen, a restaurant just a 13-minute walk away, which saved our night. The Japanese food was amazing and authentic, highly recommended. We will not be trying Kirin restaurant again and do not recommend it to anyone."

"I regret to say that I cannot recommend this restaurant to anyone. The atmosphere was lacking, with only one other table of diners, and the temperature was uncomfortably cold. The quality of the food was poor and the high prices on the bill only added to our disappointment. Unfortunately, I cannot recommend this restaurant."

"After the Japanese school moved to Acton there is less of a north London focus for the Japanese community but some links to the 1980s heyday remain. One of these is the fact that in close proximity opposite Golders Green station can be found two branches of Eat Tokyo and Cafe Japan. Whilst I've nothing against the former, the latter is authentic and independent and deserves to be supported. The interior is functional (which is exactly what you might expect), with food prepared in a cramped space towards the rear. Service from the three interchangeable serving staff was functional and prompt without being particularly engaging (the restaurant was busy with large takeaway orders in addition to the mostly occupied tables). Aside from an extensive list of sakes and shochu the drinks menu is limited, but they have Asahi on tap. So why the 5 stars? Well primarily because the food was very good indeed, offering, in addition to the normal dishes you would expect to see, a range of cooked specials that featured both fish you don't associate so much with Japan (such as sardines and monkfish) and fish that's unknown here (the ladyfish tempura was exceptional). A nice selection of mochi ice-cream balls too. At £105 for 3 people our total bill was pretty reasonable for what we had."

"Wonderful food as always, with finest ingredients immaculately prepared and served by Jenice and the team. Japanese is never cheap but at least with Suhinoen you can taste the quality and value. Would and regularly do recommend for lunch or dinner and no one is ever disappointed and it usually becomes a favourite of theirs too. There is bar code ordering (very Japanese) but just have a word when you get there as you can still just order from the waiting staff."

"My husband for the date night when we love sushi and we wanted to try something new as his first time in Genji . Wow wanted to start from the moment we went, we were greeted by the manager and asked what table we like. At a table of our choice, as we are on a date, the staff recommended a bottle of seasonal wine that was perfect after a hot day. With the very helpful Radek and our amazing waitress melissa, the service was amazing and when it came to dinner. It was the best sushi I've eaten for a long time. So fresh and full of taste and so creative. And the Veggie role was out when the world. Great Sushi Square . Very recommended"

"We needed something quick before going to a comedy show across the road. We decided upon this place because of its noodles and rice menu. I decided on the pumpkin croquette katsu curry. What it lacked in presentation it made up for in taste! The katsu curry put wagammas to shame. The croquettes were big and delightful too. Highly recommend this!"

"quite disappointed by this place. I would have gone a bit further and the oko express in consideration of the reviews that I know it is a noodle bar, but I ordered the donburi (which is in the round a jump with rice on the floor). was quite tasteless but I also ordered the agedashi tofu from the sides (which in the ground is a slightly fried tofu in a soy sauce is light sweet sauce). That was nice. but I recommend to remove the tofu immediately at the arrival from the sauce, so that the crübsal is not so tender and then only immerse in the sauce for each bite. unless you like soggy battery."

"a no annoying and no cost saved taking into a greatcross with at least one scottish premiership footballer a regular visitor for the vegetarian pizza I told. the service is friendly, although the man who works there is on himself and he can sometimes grumble a bit, but after a few visit he recognizes them and he will talk to them and he evaluates his regular customers. the thunder wood zone and the chicken parody are the two recommended of me for this takeaway, although the pizzas are also a beautiful choice. my friend had the burger, but described the hühnerburger as tasting cheap, but the rindfleischburger was in order. a good choice to finish a night, especially with a few bars and the Lava/Ignite nightclub placed close by."

"the hotel is located in a small street right in front of the capital, yen sushi was a great foundation. the staff was very friendly. eating is great and just like some other sushi restaurants, depending on the color of the plate they pick up, it determines the price. for me and mt partner we have spent 50 pfunds. the quality of eating was great, although I felt that some dishes were not great or consistent. they can also order hot food, the only thing I thought was strange is that the waitress empty teller would bring with their hot food to represent his worth, instead of just making a note on the table that took place on the table, which then made it a little tight for others. despite the above one still a great visit. they'll be sure if they want it. if their regular sushi eater, they can lack the fish in quality."

"I highly recommend this place! It's very kid-friendly, with plenty of space for children to get involved in the BBQ cooking. The service was excellent as well. We dined for dinner, and the cost per person was around £50–60. Overall, I would rate the food a 5, the service a 4, and the atmosphere a 4. Some recommended dishes include the seafood, the 16-piece nigiri sushi platter, and the wagyu chef's special set."

"Not much options on the food menu for selection but the appetisers are good. The soysauce cucumber can get a bit too salty, but is nice. The spinach with sesame is definitely a hit and the fried tofu is good. I'd go for the unagi as it was well cooked. Environment wise is nice. Very quiet during weekdays and the food is quite authentic. Dont forget to try the mille crepe matcha cake. Its thick and creamy. The only thing I didn't like was the Asian waitress had quite the attitude. Was not knowledgeable in Japanese food to be able to answer my questions and acted cocky when answering wrongly. Was also a bully towards my European friends when she kept pushing them to tell them what kind of green tea they wanted when they didnt know the difference between the three oh and I was hushed by her when I tried to explain what the difference was to them. It wasnt rush hour either since we were the only ones dining there at the time. Rude and unpleasant despite the food being good. The environment is amazing though. The top floor is neat and tidy it feels cosy and the bar is a great place to dine at as it has hooks. Downstairs is a bar, not sure if it has opened up but definitely quite well done."
