"This restaurant offers the best Japanese and Korean fusion dishes I've tried since relocating from the West coast of the US to the UK. The service is attentive and you will be well taken care of. Parking is available for a fee, but it may be free after 6 pm. Wheelchair accessibility is no problem, just inform them in advance. Dinner is the main meal type and the price per person ranges from £20 to £30."

"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."

"Upon entering this wonderful Japanese restaurant, I was immediately impressed by the extensive menu that offered a thrilling culinary journey ranging from delicate sashimi to comforting Japanese hot dishes. The standout dish was definitely the salmon, which was incredibly fresh and beautifully fatty, melting in my mouth with every bite. It's rare to find a place that excels in both sushi and traditional dishes, but this restaurant hits the mark. The signature rolls were a pleasant surprise, each showcasing a unique combination of flavors that were both innovative and satisfying. Whether you're a sushi lover or a fan of umami flavors, this restaurant provides a delightful experience that highlights the best of Japanese cuisine. Their dedication to quality and variety is apparent, making it a must-visit for anyone seeking exceptional Japanese fare."

"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"

"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 salmon teriyaki was perfectly fine, the £14.50 price point for a bento box is okay too. But I find the meal underwhelming. Certain details that are quintessential to Japanese food just wasn’t there. There was no sauce to accompany the lettuce for example, or that I had to ask for wasabi as it wasn’t served with the bento box, even though they put a couple of maki rolls in there. I can name a couple of Japanese restaurants nearby I’d rather visit next time. Price per person: £10–20 Food: 3 Service: 3 Atmosphere: 3"

"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."

"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."

"As usual the food was superb. Ribs are tender sweet sticky and very tasty. I tried the mango tempura prawn today and it was beautiful as was the snow crab and many other dishes. Highly recommend !!!"

"If a sushi takeaway is frequented by Japanese expats, you know it's legit. Atariya is no nonsense sushi made with excellent ingredients. The queues are long, don't expect stellar service. They tend to be quite generous with wasabi, you might want to request them to go easy. Unless of course you enjoy the thrill of a momentary seizure caused by accidentally swallowing too much wasabi or are a Samurai."

"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"

"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."

"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."

"We live in Lindfield and have been to the restaurant many times, usually the experience is 7/10. The food is usually very good , the service also good, as you would expect for a restaurant charging a top end price by local standards). Tonight changed that. The service was chaotic too few staff) . We had a table of 8 and main courses were spread sporadically. I was left with the remaining dish, which bore no resemblance to what I ordered. The waitress who brought the meal, but did not take the order, on 5 occasions told me I was wrong, despite at least 3 of the table wondering if they had the right dish. Mine was tasteless, and eventually, and reluctantly, they agreed to change it. 10 minutes later a replacement dish arrived. I ordered mine with chilli. As though to teach me not to complain and inedibly chilli hot arrived I eat vindaloo). At which point I left my card and departed. No words exchanged. I don’t blame the inexperienced person serving. The owner hides in the corner staring at his laptop the entire evening. Always has done. At no time did he decide to speak with me and resolve any issue. We certainly won’t be returning"
