"I rarely leave negative reviews, only positiw, because I don't think it's very nice, but at this occasion I leave this out of the only reason of warning others. my partner and I came to giraffe after I see some really nice looking options on...her menu online. I will actually try to be about the very negative experience we had tonight. I tried to order the fish and chips, they had none. I understand it. I then ordered their Tofu-Curry and immediately asked if it could be done without wobble, and was told by the waitress “I don’t know, but I will ask for them and if it can not be done without, I will come and tell them”. I took her to her literal words and one thing later came to eat, so I suspected there was no wobbles. when I found out how to swirl in my meal, I told the waitress and immediately she said, "They should have told me if they were allergic." I said, “I am not, but I am quite indecent to why I asked for it without, and they told me that they would tell me if it was a problem,” she repeated, “You should have told me. you have to tell me. I don't know if they care about it. you should have told me that I thought you just didn't like her.” when I repeated that I could state that I didn't want her and I didn't know that I had to state why it should be taken seriously, she just repeated the same argument and finally said, "if they want, I can change it for something else," I quickly ordered something else. I didn't get an apology from her, just what felt like repeated guilt, instead of taking responsibility for her mistake, not to inform me how she had assured me that she would. 15 minutes later I waited for my alternative meal to arrive while my man his, and the manager (I think I came over. I assumed it was supposed to apologize, but it was that it – first, repeated doing the same as her colleague had done, what was to say, I had to say that I was intolerance. this has now become a embarrassing and unpleasant situation. when I explained that the thing was the fact that the waitress said she would do something she had not done, and then had accused me instead of just saying, I'm sorry and that they can't control when most dishes cooked with wobble or not. that was not a problem as such – I just wanted to be told and I would not have ordered it. Anyway, she offered me an alternative food, and in this phase, while my man is now sitting with an empty dish and I feel thoroughly said I was no longer hungry and so simply asked to go. she said the meal of my man would be on the house what I thought was a decent thing to do. we thank her and then went. on the way, the waitress I had experienced as unprofessional stood at the door. we don't want to come back."

"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."
