"Spotted this place on Yelp after so many people bookmarked it, just as well as I'm rarely in town and would never have known it existed After some negotiating traffic and road closures I arrive at the door, first impressions is .... Oh no it's just a take out place .... I go in and I'm surprised to see it has ample bar seating and some tables too! Yeah I get a seat The menu is immediately available as it doubles as your placemat, order my drinks and they come quickly. Decent amount of choice and I'm surprised at how low the prices are given its city centre location. Place an order of many things as I'm a pig Salmon maki comes first, not sure what the lovely waitress said as she placed it down however I was hungry and got stuck in, it looked different .... Then I realise it is cooked salmon.... Taste is obviously different too, just as I was feeling that it isn't really what I wanted..... Some salmon maki arrives?????? Another, this time uncooked as you would expect.... I question it and I'm told the first was for free...... What!!!! Free.... 6 maki .... To try wow! Nice! Loved it a little more now My chicken teriyaki miso ramen arrives, huge bowl, well presented and with a traditional wooden ladle, it was delightful plenty of noodles, chicken and packed full of flavour Then..... I'm feeling ashamed now .... My veg tempura arrives ..... I audibly gasp at the portion size, all that for a fiver! Geeeez I managed half the ramen and shock horror had to box up the tempura to take with me..... Anyone that knows me knows I hate doing this .... My partner Maria however does it every restaurant and it drives me crazy! However there was so much food and the tempura not even touched I had to! All that including drinks £19.20 well cheaper than I would spend in yo sushi and much more flavour with a personal service It looses a star however for the following No bubble tea as advertised on the menu (I was disappointed as I love me a bbt) The interior as much as I love an industrial/stressed/wood feel I do not however like plywood on the walls, bare concrete great, rusting metal great look, distressed wood and brickwork lovely..... Plywood cheap and nasty, I would have preferred anything even some reclaimed wood, old pallets anything but ply Next was cash only, I had none on me, it was a little inconvenient to walk down to central station to get cash out a machine and come back to pay, even if they did trust I would return (I did offer to leave my driving licence as proof of return) All in though, you go for the food and service on that I will definitely be returning"
