"incredibly delicious! we love Oishi-Q! definitiw a place to go back list. we had the fried squid and agedashi tofu for starter - both were very tasty and freshly cooked. for the net we had chicken kaarage with Oishi sauce (Japanese mayo and Tokonatsu sauce) as well as chicken katsu curry. both were served with a lot of huh and I thought the karaage was extremely good fried! to improve, we would have liked to see more soss for the katsu curry when the rice drinks them all up and would like to have a few more nice. Otherwise, one must visit and I will try to spit the yakitori next time as she saw very appealing."

"We live closely and often eat at this excellent little Japanese restaurant. There is a large Japanese local population in Ealing and the area is consequently well served by the number of sushi bars, restaurants and small supermarkets. Kiraku sits at the top table of all of them. The very simple interior belies the fact that this is sushi of the very highest quality. The nigiri are perfectly balanced and the sashimi some of the best I have tasted. The presentation and detailing very good indeed. The service is always warm and friendly and while this is not a place of sophistication, it is a easy place to spend a couple of hours chatting over fantastic food and very cold Asahi. It's not cheap, but we always say worth every penny. This week's visit was, once again, an outstanding meal."

"I had high expectations of kanpai, because I had heard so big things. my friend and I have booked a last minute table, but because it was a Tuesday night, they managed to impress us; kanpai is very popular and can be very busy. the interieur has a similar feeling as the Japanese izakaya with its hidden rooms and its secluded dining room feeling. after intense viewing of the menu (and I finally give up and allow that to choose sam) we decided on the takoyaki octopus fish cake, lachs nigiri, thunfisch nigiri, lachs and avocado maki, a drachenrolle and kanpais special sashimi combo. everything comes when it's done, which means we haven't been left too long without food. the Tayoyako Octopus table cake was the perfect warm note to our meal and resembled exactly the same dish we had in tokio. I couldn't owe anything of the food, but the star of the show was the definitiw the sashimi. it came as an art piece and I could almost taste how good it would be before I picked up my first piece. the selection was fantastic and the taste was excellent. it wasn't the cheapest sushi we had, but it was probably the best and I can't expect to go back to authentic Japanese sushi experiences!"

"While the food was delicious, the chef is quite inflexible. We simply wanted to make sushi rolls with cooked/tempura salmon, like other sushi restaurants offer, but he refused. The service was slow, and the prices were very high for sushi. My advice is to be a bit more flexible with the menu, adjust prices to be more reasonable, and perhaps hire more staff. If you do, you would likely have a full house every night!"

"Ordered on Deliveroo and the food is fresh and well-presented! I’d recommend the Philadelphia maki. The salmon don is fresh (though thinly sliced, see photo), and the Tteobokki fish cake is soft and chewy (portion a bit small, guess it’s more of an appetizer/ snack)."

"Obon: a petit Japanese udon restaurant that supplies a sense of Japan that cannot be found anywhere else in the whole of the Uk. (5 stars) Location: Obon is located close to the heart of Kingston but the road it’s on is considerably quieter. You must make sure to have a basic knowledge of Kingston in order to find an area to park and to also make sure you leave yourself enough time, taking the unpredictability of the traffic into acount. Even on a week day there can be traffic jams which can put a halt to your plans and due to the small amount of customers Obon can take its important that you not only book but make sure that you arrive at the agreed booking time. With this being said the staff are all lovely so if you are running late, a quick call is all that is required to just give Obon a chance to understand your position. The food: The array of exquisitely prepared sashimi will be sure to create the sensation that you are in a top Japanese restaurant in japan and the flavour of the fish does not fail to match expectations, which will be very high after just one glance at your meal. The fish is delicately seasoned and practically melts on your tongue, this causes a lovely sensation and is genuinely the finest sushi I have tasted in the uk and even matches a lot of the top restaurants in japan. On top of just the traditional types of sushi, which to many is maki rolls Obon also offers many other delicious options such as soft shell crab and even Unagi don, which I must highly recommend due to it consistently being the highlight of my meal. For those of you that were interested in the quality of the basic Japanese dishes such as miso soup or edamame they do not fail to leave you in grand anticipation for what is to come for they are, simply speaking, incredibly good. The miso, in my opinion, is truly remarkable and creates a lasting feeling of warmth throughout your entire body, on top of that it is far superior to other miso’s that I have tasted in all other areas of the world. Overall the quality of the food is something you would expect from a world famous Michelin star restaurant and if you want Japanese food it’s the only place I can recommend. The Restaurant: The restaurant itself is small but authentic in nature and because it only has a enough tables to host around 20 people at the most, the service is exceptionally good and your food is always out quickly so you will not be left hungry for very long. The staff are kind and friendly. And it’s always an enjoyable experience being waves goodbye as you leave the restaurant. You’re also able to watch as they prepare the food, which for some could be entertaining. There are Japanese photos scattered around the room and this further creates an authentic feel. The atmosphere is not lively but it is a restaurant and not a bar so is an ideal location if you are wanting high quality food. With this being said it is still a great place to go with friends and I consistently am able to have a great time no matter the occasion. Price: Obviously, the price of the food is always an important topic to come to and despite the cost of the sushi being slightly higher than you may expect from a small restaurant in Kingston, I would have to say that for the quality of the food it is ultimately a bargain. For three people, you would be spending around £100 so it isn’t cheap but you can go for cheaper types of food such as udon, which is still amazing quality and won’t set you back as much money. Overall: Obon is still my favourite restaurant in the whole of the Uk and is perfect for a special occasion but it isn’t the sort of place you’d go for a casual night out. The food is beyond incredible and thus they can cater for both children and adults by meeting every bodies needs. For anybody that enjoys sushi, I would urge you to give it a go, you won’t regret it"

"We finished our last meeting at around 630pm near St Paul and walked towards the Grange Hotel. One of my colleagues wanted to eat Japanese and know about Miyama, Its a nice place with a basement dinning area. London is a very cosmopolitan city and its easy to find Asian food, including Jap, Indian and Thai. Can't be eating fish and chips every day: Spacious and comfortable. I tried the hot soba with seafood with wild vegetables. The seafood was crab meat, some fish roe, some fish cakes and plenty of vegetables. The hot noodle and soup much welcome when the temperature outside on the streets was around 10c.We shared an order of fried bean curd and sashimi. Both the food and service was good, except that one of the wait staff served a beer which we did not order. Taking notes of the various food places within the City. This is location is near St Paul's which is a major tourist landmark. No need to use google map to find this place the next time, if there is an opportunity to be London again in the future..."

"Had dinner with my friend and our four young children. If you are happy to pay for poor version of Yo! sushi or Wagamama then you will like it here. When we questioned about the sour taste in our yaki udon, instead of offering us another one, the lady ranted on about how they ‘only’ use ‘100% of tonkatsu sauce’? Apart from untouched yaki udon, we barely touched other dishes we ordered (normally kids would clean the plates of tempura which we ordered two portions as well as 2 yasai tempura. The batter was so thick that they weren’t sure if they ordered tempura batter instead). The miso soups also tasted funny as if they added vinegar in it. The edamame were soggy and over cooked, the avocado on dragon rolls were brown. The customer service was atrocious and the food was far from being authentic. Definitely won’t be going back!"

"Drove past on our way down to the Mumbles and were intrigued by the gorgeous artwork on the building, got to our rental place to find the Nishimura menu had been provided in the house after looking at how many amazing options there were we knew we had to go in and try it! The food is absolutely divine. I had the pumpkin katsu udon noodle soup and my partner had the pumpkin katsu curry. I also enjoyed the agedashi tofu. I can honestly say it was probably the best Japanese cuisine I have ever had! The staff were all very friendly and the service was very fast, we didn't have to wait long for our food at all and it was all hot and fresh. My only regret is that we only had time to eat here once I'm desperate to return! Also love that there were hi chews instead of little mints on the counter when we paid. Perhaps consider opening a branch in Hereford I imagine I could single handedly fund the entire operation with my sales alone!"

"on Friday 23rd april, I have booked a table for six, they sent an email on the day before confirming my booking, but on the day when we called them to change our booking fo 5 they did not answer. when we arrived in the restaurant, it was completely decorated and closed. this was for a member of our party birthday and was really looking forward to sushi and now we had to find a place to eat even in the current climate on Friday at 6th, the other household in our group had traveled from south london for this birthday, so this is absolutely disgusting that they could not cancel before or any message at all. would not recommend to a friend and absolutely not come back. this is also an incident with open table, they must be taken by this app or checked because this is completely through the birthday plans and we ended eating somewhere very bad."

"Second time I've been to Eat Tokyo (Soho) and I wasn't disappointed. Food is tasty, and big portions for fair price. The single disappointment was the staff not being very friendly and kind of rushing us to leave. Also on Google the restaurant closes at 23 but that day they were closing at 22 instead. But overall good experience and good food."

"We visited on a whim after attending the heritage day in Ipswich, we had not booked but were seated almost immediately, downstairs by the window. We ordered starters, mains and BUBBLE TEA!!! The best bubble tea! Loyalty cards too : Our starters, calamari, octopus salad and avocado salad. All looked amazing. Loved the calamari and avocado though not a fan of the octopus personal preference. The mains, we both ordered ramens. Chicken for one, seafood for the other, absolutely delicious! This is a restaurant where you definitely eat with your eyes. It was awesome to be in view of the kitchen, larger parties ordering lots of food, and the robot delivering Birthday wishes. Definitely a go to for a celebration, though you need to be seated downstairs to gain the full experience. The service is always excellent and we cannot wait to revisit. Our only query was the pricing, given that we ate at lunchtime the ramen is priced somewhat differently to that if you eat later, and we were charged the later slightly more expensive price. The food was delicious and plentiful and what we ordered for 2, was enough for 3, as we took home the remainder to pass on to another to try. Excited for a celebration so that we may revisit and definitely a go to if you are ever in town and fancy a bubble tea as a beverage. We can highly recommend the specials."
"Bad service, don 't bother. I ate at Bonsai on Saturday 22nd August. I would definitely not go back. I know restaurants are busier during the festival, and you have to wait a little longer because of this, but I found the level of service here awful. The waitress even exclaimed loudly at last! when the table next to us left, as if they had been inconveniencing her by staying so long to eat. If you can 't serve a full restaurant efficiently, don 't book it up so fully. The food was nice, not exceptional-other Japanese places in Edinburgh do equally nice food but actually provide good service with it. Only go if you 're sure it will be quiet, if you have plenty of time, and...read more"

"Me and my mum mostly had the small tapas dishes were were nice, nothing spectacular as far as Japanese food goes, but it wasn’t bad. Portions are tiny, the restaurant itself is also very small inside with only a few tables and mostly bar like seats, all stools rather than chairs. Services was good for the most part but very slow for certain dishes, particularly the Katsu dishes which took almost an hour. Anything other than that arrived pretty quickly though, so am not sure why. No sushi, no free selection of sashimi, very limited menu. Overall average at best, certainly not in my recommendations for Japanese or Asian restaurants in Manchester unfortunately."

"I had a wonderful lunch with my niece today, and we both loved it! The atmosphere was modern and beautiful, creating a really relaxed vibe. The waitresses were very attentive, too. We were the first ones to arrive for lunch, but the place soon started to fill up. Since it's a new restaurant, I understand it may take some time to get busy. I was pleasantly surprised by how excellent the vegetarian menu was; the herb tempura vegetarian noodles are a must-try, and the chocolate fondant dessert paired with Pinot Noir red wine was simply perfect. I can't wait to come back and try it for dinner with friends! xx"

"I am still waiting for a call from the manager who promised to contact us. We placed an online order for delivery, but after an hour it was still not marked as ready and the delivery time kept getting delayed. They called us to inform that the order was for pickup and not delivery, even though we had not been notified earlier. The food was cold, the staff were impolite, and the manager refused to speak to us, promising to call us back. Despite our attempts to reach out, we have not received any response from them. Cold food and lack of communication from the manager is unacceptable given the price we paid."

"In general, I found the chicken to be much better than the other meats. **Chinese Dishes:** - **Mapo Tofu:** This was a bit different than I expected, made with what seemed like agedashi tofu rather than the usual soft raw tofu. Although it was soft, the agedashi style was a fresh twist. It wasn’t bad. - **Beef in Black Bean Sauce:** Unfortunately, the beef quality was poor; it had a questionable smell and tasted like it might be spoiled. The meat was tough. I’ll have to see how I feel tomorrow, but if I do get sick, I’ll definitely blame the beef! I don’t know why I kept chewing; someone help me! - **Szechuan Chicken:** This wasn’t what I anticipated, but it turned out to be good. The chicken quality was great, while the sauce was just okay. - **Mongolian Stir-Fry:** The gentleman preparing the stir-fry did an excellent job! **Thai Dishes:** - **Chicken in Thai Curry:** This was disappointing and lacked flavor. If the chef had tasted it, he might have realized this. **Italian Dishes:** - **Arrabiata Pasta:** It was fine. Nothing special, but acceptable. - **Italian Grilled Chicken:** This was probably my favorite dish. They used real chicken, which seemed to be slow-cooked, making it soft and moist rather than dried out. **Indian Dishes:** - **Chicken Tikka:** The meat was dry and lacked flavor. - **Butter Chicken:** It was okay. The quality of the meat was good, but the sauce was just alright—neither horrible nor superb. **Dessert:** - The ice cream was good. **Service:** The service was hit or miss. It seemed the servers weren't assigned to specific tables, as different people came by to clear my plates. I tried to pay with an American credit card, which meant I couldn't leave a tip on the card. I started to walk out but felt guilty, so I went back in and left a £5 tip after realizing I had some cash. Honestly, the experience wasn’t outstanding, but the last waitress I encountered really made a difference!"
