"It was our first time, and everything was fantastic. Lots of options to choose from, and with the brilliant help from our Waiter Phillip, we ordered from most sections of the menu. Beautiful wine list, with lots of choices and fantastic help from the sommelier. And then there’s the general buzz, load music that makes you want to wine in your chair it was an amazing night"

"Genuinely one of my favourite high end restaurants! AMAZING food…great entertainment and very good atmosphere. Food is not halal but they have vegetarian and fish options available and they do serve mocktail as well as cocktails and alcohol here. Be aware that food arrives as it is cooked so there is no order as to how the food comes out. There is limited parking around the area so please bare that in mind if you plan to drive, otherwise Uber is a good alternative. The interior is so elegantly designed and the staff are welcoming (most of the time), there is a cloak room for your coats and items, just ask a waiter! The speedy wait time on food is definitely a plus! I highly recommend this restaurant, although please be advised it does get much louder in the evening after 10.30 so not very ideal after this point if you want to have serious conversations. Also note they have a reduced menu after 11.30pm. Fridays and Saturdays are very busy so I have noticed the quality of service drops a bit in comparison to the other days and I have encountered unfriendly stuff at the door especially during my last visit hence the rating. I found this upsetting because as I mentioned previously it is one of my favourite food places and appreciate the quality of food served. They have a live band/DJ in the evenings."

"What a beautiful Japanese culinary experience! I started with edamame, spinach sesame, chicken gyoza, Japanese omelette, and inari, all of which were perfect and delicious. The spicy salmon, tuna fish avocado, and shrimp tempura were also excellent. I couldn't pick a favorite because everything was so tasty with fresh seafood. Service was quick and attentive. For my main course, I had chicken katsu with rice and teriyaki chicken donburi. The katsu was perfectly fried and one of my favorites, while the donburi brought me the authentic flavors of Japan. Overall, it was a fantastic experience with great food and hospitality. I will definitely be visiting again!"

"We came at lunch time for the buffet, which is where you pay 24.80 pp and can have as many dishes as you want- just a few examples are sushi, ramen, miso soup, prawn toast, tempura and noodles! Such a variety of dishes to choose from! The service is absolutely top notch- so friendly and they give you sesame oil, sweet chilli sauce, soy sauce, wasabi and ginger on the table for you and they also frequently top water up and take away your plates for you. For the buffet, they give you a sheet and you tick which dishes you want (up to 6 per person per round) and then they serve them to you as they are ready! Everything was SO fresh and piping hot and so authentic! Absolutely highly recommend if you’re a sushi lover but also just general Japanese/Asian cuisine lover because there is SO much to choose from! We ended up ordering the maximum of 12 dishes for the first round (there was 2 of us) and then 4 dishes for the 2nd round! But we were fully full after 6 dishes each! Some dishes are bigger than others too which is really nice. Will definitely be going here again!"

"we had a great evening in their restaurant! we came in without booking, and there were 8 of us at one of the evenings. the spicy margaret was just one of the best cocktails we need to order most. the cocktails taste fabulous! one of my friends has several allergens. it is not good to eat, and most of the food she cannot eat. a blonde lady took our job, and I told her I had several allergens. an Asian lady knows my allergens. she went beyond and beyond to make sure I had something to eat. she almost makes me cry because she cares about my allergens. thanks for a fabulous evening. the Asian dame and all the workers make our evening just as good as her. We will be back for more cocktails. we love this place and you are the best!"

"Food was excellent. Not cheap, though I guess this is central London. Surprised that there was no one else in the restaurant all the time we were there, from 6pm onward on a Saturday night. Service was good, not above and beyond. All in all, good choice for a birthday celebration and I would probably go back."

"Fantastic little sushi restaurant in Stockbridge with an absolutely amazing atmosphere, really recommend getting one of the sushi sets purely for the plate in the shape of a boat! My only gripe is that they don’t accept card payement, was a hassle finding a machine and then having to police how much we could spend there, really hope they offer a form of electronic payment in the future, And my only other gripe was the wine being served in a tumbler, took away a lot of the flavours of the wine, But regardless of these the fish was fresh and the gyoza delicious"

"I have only ever tried the delivery service, which was punctual and the food arrived hot. The dining experience is average, but it's worth ordering if you just want to unwind and eat. The children always enjoy the pizza without any complaints."

"I have been a lifelong fan of Japanese cuisine and went most recently went to Tokyo in 2019. Chisou stands above the crowd of all fine dining Japanese restaurants I've been to outside Japan. My mum had been there one time prior and had an...amazing experience, my father and I both went for the first time tonight with her. The menu is a complex and interesting overview of all Japanese cuisine highlights, including a comprehensive menu of Sushi/Sashimi, Noodles (Udon/Soba), Teriyaki/Tempura, and some delightful takes on the traditional izakaya offering. They also offer an extensive sake menu, with some very unique items that complement whatever you choose to order. Beyond their superbly cultivated menu, the service at Chisou can only be described as exceptional. The entire staff truly care if you are having a good time, and are happily there to provide advice on guiding you through your meal. My dad is not a huge fan of raw seafood, and the sushi chef took an interest in challenging his hesitations- he offered us an incredible smoked mackerel as an amuse-bouche to test if my dad would like it, and he did. We ordered a number of starters- the gyoza, fried oysters, uni, and chuuka seaweed salad- all were superb. I was extremely impressed at the freshness and quality of the ingredients, as well as the beauty and care with presentation. For his main, my dad ordered the tofu steak, which was the most velvety and flavourful tofu we have had outside of our favourite place in Tokyo (called I <3 Gyoza). My mum and I had the sashimi omekase for 2, and the consideration from the chef was beyond exceptional. He asked us our preferences, my mum is a fan of ami ebi, I love tako and ika- all 3 were of the highest quality I've experienced. He also took a great interest in how we were enjoying things and continually provided advice or information about what we were eating. The waiting staff was also extremely caring and fun to speak with, and really were happy to see that we enjoyed ourselves. The manager also gave us a wonderful recommendation of an undistilled sake to go with our desserts, that was simply fabulous. Chisou is not just truly fantastic dining in terms of quality of food and service, but a theatrical experience that will make you feel as if you've teleported from London right into a Japanese izakaya. We have already booked a reservation to go back tomorrow and I cannot wait."

"Another outstanding meal at Chisou! It's the first time we've visited the new location and we're really impressed: it feels lighter and more airy than the previous Mayfair location. Service as ever was outstanding and the food itself was absolutely delicious. Very highly recommended."

"I had a fantastic experience at this restaurant. The atmosphere was great and the staff was attentive. The service was quick and efficient, and I loved using the QR code to order online. The system was easy to navigate and I appreciated being able to add to my order as I went along and pay at the end. The soft shell crab dish was delicious and I would definitely recommend it."

"We visited Koto Restaurant on North Parade for Sunday lunch for the first time, and we wish we had tried it sooner. The ramen broth was incredibly delicious, with a gentleman next to us remarking that it tasted just like what he had in Japan. The menu was straightforward and easy to order from, with both the broth and noodles being homemade and preservative-free. The food was healthy, flavorful, and beautifully presented. The only downside was that they do not take reservations, so there may be a wait. Overall, I would rate the food at Koto Restaurant as some of the best in Oxford."

"this place is absolutely amazing! from eating to customer service there is nothing to fail. I went to my wife's birthday and they made sure that we had the best time not to remember the names, but every worker came up to ask how that was eating and if we needed anything else. we ordered a series of items from the menu and they tasted amazing. I called up earlier to ask a little surprise for my wife, and the staff showed a very special moment. Many thanks, young people I will unleash myself, are often back to this place."
