"This restaurant in London consistently serves fresh and delicious sushi at a fraction of the price of Nobu. It is truly a hidden gem and offers quality sushi that rivals that of Nobu."

"Great food. Great sushi and sashimi options. Nonetheless, they have a newly expanded Korean food option, not to mention they play loads of K-pop. Very spicy for traditionalist, and they’re able to make mild flavors as well for the timid amongst us. Even though most clients sit there on their phones, people are friendly and open, and even the staff are not distracted on their phones, like most places, making us feel even more welcome. They used to have great bento boxes, But sadly no more."

"This was my first visit to the restaurant, and I brought my family along with my best friend and his family. As we all love Japanese cuisine, our expectations were high. The menu offered a fantastic variety, catering not only to sushi lovers but also to those who prefer rice, noodles, and BBQ dishes. The service was excellent—not too rushed, allowing us to take our time, yet not so slow that we regretted our choice. The food was served hot and beautifully presented, and it's best to arrive hungry since the portions are generous. The sushi was incredibly fresh and delicious. I highly recommend this restaurant for its excellent value, great food, and welcoming atmosphere."

"This was my first visit and for my first visit, I brought alone my family and best friend and his family. As we all love Japanese food, our expectation was high. There was a great selection to choose from which also caters for people who is not a Sushi fan with rice, noodles and BBQ meals. The service was great, not too short, where you keep asking for more time, and not too long where you wished you went somewhere else. The food arrived hot and very well presented and you best come hungry as there is plenty of it. The Sushi is really fresh and very tasty. I would highly recommend this restaurant for value for money, great food and friendly surrounding."

"I do not recommend this restaurant! The menu looked nice, but each dish had 2 prices side by side. We asked for the regular mains, and then asked for some garlic bread as a starter to have whilst we waited for our mains. As we finished the starter, the waiter came and took the empty plates away and said that now he was going to request the mains and the wait would be another 15-20 minutes. When the mains finally arrived, the portions were extremely small and there was really only pasta! At this point, we decided to go elsewhere for desert and asked for the bill. All the mains were priced at the large portions rate and there was the usual 12,5% service charge. We spoke with the person who came to take the payment and explained that we wouldn't pay the service charge as we were not pleased with the overall service and especially the main dishes. The waiter simply said Ok' in an unhappy way, took the payment and went away. Overall, the staff are not friendly and the service and food does not meet the standard set by the price charged!"

"Shimogano opened in 2013 in a parade of shops on Camden Parkway. It is named after an ancient Kyoto Shinto shrine that is a UNESCO world heritage site. The restaurant has a small dining area and bar at ground level, the main dining room being in the basement. The décor is fairly basic, and the restaurant serves a wide variety of Japanese cuisine styles, from sushi to tempura to noodles and beyond. This slightly scattergun approach is normal in London but unusual in Japan, where most restaurants specialise, sometimes to an extreme degree e.g. some restaurants serve only eel, or only tonkatsu. It must be difficult for any restaurant to really master such a wide menu. See more at:...read more"

"I'm at a loss for words. It could be amazing. I had made a reservation, but then they called to tell me they were closed. I appreciate the heads up, but it would be preferable if they didn't advertise as open when they're not."

"Firstly , we get a takeaway from here almost every Friday night the sushi is absolutely fantastic and the food quality overall is excellent but we always collect as despite living five minutes drive away it can be very Hap hazard in terms of accuracy and time for delivery . Last week we decided to meet friends there instead 8.15 booking , food again delicious but when we asked for plates as we wanted to share a number of dishes the saucers were produced for each of us with no serving spoons. Everything seems to be a hassle when asked for . I then asked for a coffee at 9.30 I was told in a rude fashion that no I couldn’t as the kitchen closes at 9 pm !! Despite there being another two tables still in the restaurant the bleach bucket and mop then appeared to start cleaning down the restaurant ! This included the whole way down the stairs which was completely wet as we carefully tried to leave without slipping on the freshly mop floors at 10 pm on a Friday night ! you feel like you are imposing and irritating them by eating in . So 5 outta 5 for a takeaway but 2/5 as an eating in experience im afraid ."

"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."

"great service and good food. very enjoyed the bao bungalows chose crab and they were delicious (also a funny challenge to eat due to the sheer size.) the wood meat was good. not sharp on the dumplings, as they were quite wet, she did not personally enjoy sitting in kondiments. please with the panna cotta dessert. I would also like to stress the service of a certain person who was friendly enough to first check that the tellers were finished before they were taken away, this was very appreciated and saved the abhorrence of most other experiences where the meals are taken away before they are finished."

"I may be a bit biased since the sushi options where I live are not great in this price range. I couldn't afford the pricier sushi restaurants in London, nor here."

"Visited here after evaluating several reviews and a few emails between teh restaurant and us. WE liked the Japanese communication upfront with my japanese wife and we were glad to have chosen this place. Wwent theer with people for a busienss dinner and everybody...was very satisfied with the amount and quality of food and the service. We were also positivly surprised that a lot of Japnese semes to eat hera to which is a very good sign for the authenitc cuisine. The only negative point in our visit was that the Wagyu beef was out (theerfore only str rating), though haven't been pre ordered from us Wills surely come back when again in London"

"Booked a table of 5 for my birthday dinner. We were promptly seated then immediately asked for drinks orders before even being offered a drinks menu or water. After we had ordered drinks we were being rushed into ordering some food, every two minutes different waiters coming and asking if we are ready to order (at least 7 times). After we did order and the food was brought out, we were then just forgotten about and nobody came over anymore to check if we needed any more drinks (4 out of 5 glasses were empty) or if the food was ok. (It was- but no one checked). After we had finished dining, we still had empty glasses and had to wait 20+ minutes until we eventually stopped a waiter walking past and asked if we could order more drinks. The drinks then took another 15 minutes to come. It was also very disappointing that although we had mentioned on the booking itself that it was for my birthday, there was no acknowledgement of this (I have been before and had received a plate with ‘happy birthday’ written on it in some kind of sauce with a sparkler). My sister even went to ask the woman working on the front desk and received a standoffish attitude back saying no. When the £235 bill came, it even listed ‘birthday plate £0.00’ on it!!! That really let the evening down. The interactions with the staff themselves were great, they were very polite and personable but the actual level of service of being rushed to order and then totally forgotten about really dampened what could have been a fantastic evening."

"My family and I visited this restaurant once again for a delicious meal, and we were not disappointed. The food had delicate flavors and was fresh, and the service was discreet. Akemi herself oversees all the cooking, ensuring high standards and consistency. I realized that my first review was over 10 years ago, which is a testament to the quality of this place. The menu has been reduced, indicating that the food is prepared fresh. They have a large selection of sake, which I appreciate as someone who is sensitive to alcohol but never experiences headaches with sake. I will be returning tonight and look forward to another great dining experience."

"Visited koi sushi last night, from the start we felt welcomed we was greeted by a lovely young lady I think she said her name was Donna. The restaurant was very clean and I must add the music was great too.. Last but not least the food was amazing we had a mixed sharing platter the Katsu prawns was amazing, for mains I had teriyaki Salmon and it was cooked to protection. My desert just finished my evening off Japanese pancake I’m craving another already!"
