"The restaurant had a hideous decoration that resembled Thailand, but in a negative way, making it look like a poorly lit TGI Fridays. Despite being packed, it was surprisingly quiet for a Sunday at Pizza East."

"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."

"Staff were very attentive and checked on us regularly throughout the meal asking if we needed more drinks etc. the food is amazing, we ordered a variety of dishes to share between the 4 of us so that we could sample as much as possible. The squid portion was generous and tasted delicious and the bang bang shrimp were also really good. We had the bulgogi beef skewers and aubergine skewers both were tasty but the beef ones were very flavoursome and my favourite dish of all. The desserts are also really tasty passion fruit cheesecake was deconstructed and has a hidden layer of passion fruit sauce underneath to add extra zing. The only fault would be the cookie dough would have benefitted from more ice cream as it was a little sickly after a while."

"I can't say that it's the best Japanese place I've ever visited, still the best in soho, but it's a really decent place to eat. the place I could go back to if I was quite hungry and in the opposite, but not the kind of place where I would go out of mine to come. the eating is mixed, some dinge were really good and many of it was very average. Nothing I had was bad. service is in order, a touch slow, but the staff was as friendly as I hoped. to eat everything in a beautiful place, nothing special."

"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."

"This was the most disgusting overpriced Thai food I have ever had. Tom Khan soup was like water, sour and had undercooked chewy chicken in it. Floating strips of tomato skin and frozen mushrooms in it. Duck spring rolls 4 tiny finger size spring rolls that probably came from Iceland. No duck in them and the odd one completely different. All with a tablespoon of sad salad on plate for £8. Pad Thai was not pad Thai. Asked for prawn and was given chewy chicken again. Disgusting dis for £18. Not once did any staff come over and ask if everything was OK. They were sat eating their food which was probably not what we are served. Worst experience ever"

"For our dinner, we both decided to try the special dishes on the menu. I chose the tamarind duck with a side of sticky rice. I remembered having duck at a market during lunchtime before. The duck tasted delicious, especially when cooked with tamarind, which gave it a warm flavor. The dish was served with a twist of red and green peppers, all covered in a sauce with a unique name, "gai yang som tum khao niew." I would recommend asking for the dish by name if you want to try it. It is a typical regional Thai dish consisting of grilled chicken and papaya salad served with sticky rice."

"If I could give this place less than 1 star I would. I ordered at 6:45pm and they told me food would arrive by 8pm (which is already a very long time). When the food did come, only 3 items out of 7 were there and those 3 items were cold! I rang this place and told them the situation and they were extremely rude to me. After a while they agreed to send the missing items but it is now 2 hours later and nothing has come! I have tried to ring them for the last hour and it always says User Busy! They have stolen my money and done it with no shame! Do not order or eat from here"

"I attend this pub a minimum of once a month with my father to catch up and enjoy a few drinks and atmosphere. Been doing this since the place opened. Will not be going back after today due to the poor Qaulity door staff and policy 's being made up on the fly. I booked a table one week in advance as I usually do and when I arrived as I went to walk in a young man maybe 18 stood in front of me and told me to not dare walk past him he had in plain cloths and nothing identifying him as a doorman such as an sia badge(turned out had it on his waiste under his coat deliberately obscured) he efused me entry as I had on jogging bottoms. I was told by the doorman this is a breach of the dress code/uniform policy. When I queried this policy as I 've been coming to this pub regularly for 10 years his response was he was denying me entry as 99% of fights he breaks up where people with jogging bottoms on. . While I 'm standing there two customer came outside for a smoke one with joggers on and another with shorts he then refused the customer who was already in admittance back on to the premises but let the shorts back in. When that customer asked to go back in and get his jacket and a refund he was refused, it took his partner to come out to get his stuff. I asked to speak to the manager as I had booked a table and ordered drinks which where at the table as my father had arrived before me, he said I was not entitled to a refund on site and would need to contact them via email. I then asked to speak with the manager and he responded with no. I had.to phone my father who was already within the premises(with jogging bottoms I might add) and ask him to grab the manager who eventually came out, I asked where the dress code was stated and she could not direct me to anything but she had made the decision on the day and that 's it even though the majority of customers inside already where weathering joggers. I got so frustrated by this interaction I started recording for evidence and the door mane then told me that unless I stopped recording my father would not be getting a refund for the table/beer he had purchased for my arrival. While I complelty understand some premises have dress codes they should be clearly marked online and not be changing day to day let alone during a day after people are already in the pub. The manager refused to provide any kind of complaint details aswell. Cannot believe after so many years of attending this place to be met with this, the doorman was needlessly confrontational from the get go and just making stuff up on the spot."

"I've visited the carvery on multiple Sundays and can confidently say that the experience is unforgettable. The staff is friendly, polite, and incredibly helpful. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend this restaurant to anyone; it’s a fantastic place to dine and catch up with friends and family. I suggest calling ahead to reserve a table to avoid disappointment. We plan to return this Sunday for another lovely experience. As a gesture of courtesy, please consider leaving a decent tip for the staff after savoring your meal, as a way to show your appreciation. And just a reminder, do not attempt to leave without following the standard procedures—it's important!"

"The food at this restaurant is fantastic and reasonably priced. The service was friendly and efficient. The atmosphere was enjoyable and the music was at a perfect volume for conversation with friends. I will definitely be returning soon. I adore the cozy ambiance of this place. A special shoutout for the delicious pineapple ice cream that made my birthday extra memorable. This restaurant has become my new favorite spot. Thank you!"

Only one time have I ever been disappointed with food nothing else in the establishment and everything was cleared up. Bathrooms upstairs, so could be considered a difficulty to access, but amazing venue and recommended to anyone after a few pints and a chill"

"Today I decided to enjoy Christmas lights on kings Road but also have a dinner at pavilion Road . I booked a table for 6 pm at Wulf Lamb vegetarian restaurant. I became vegetarian for concerns about excessive use of environmental resources and for my health . Unfortunately, the restaurant wasn’t as impressive as I have seen in their website . They have only one toilet which wasn’t in a good condition and very dirty. Staff were nice and kind but very inexperiences . The table was very wobbly and The young manager tried to make the table more stable but he failed . We asked to have our starter and main course at the same time . Bruschetta were with mushroom and truffle oil not truffle as it says in menu! and Gyoza "

"Mediocrity. It 's not as bad as it seems when it comes to sushi in London. Just had Tokiya Sushi and have to say: why are resturants so cheap with their fish when making maki here? All I 'm asking for is equal parts fish/veggie to rice, not even more fish than rice like I 'd find in the US but this seems like a difficult enough ask. On the upside, their sushi is yum yum yummie, and pretty cheap, affordable by all who have about 10-15 quid to spend on a dinner, but maki, although good, has such a small amount of the fish you order in it, it doesn 't even make sense to order them over the sushi unless you really don 't like fish. Not so good point #2 My dinner-mate got a sushi regular which was 6 pieces of sushi and 5 pieces of maki. What they didn 't state was that maki means the cheapest thing possible which turned out to be a cucumber roll with not even a bit of fish in the roll in sight. Obviously if people are ordering a sushi plate, they aren 't vegetarians and generally will expect SOME fish in their maki! End diagnosis, would order take away from (i forgot to mention there is a 10 pound per person rule even though most of their entrees are under 10 pounds and oh yeah it DOESN 'T include drinks) especially the sushi, but don 't go by the photo here, you are lucky if the maki comes with half that much filling, albeit they are still tasty if unsatisfactory. sushi pretty good, maki order take away from Tsunami just down the other way."

"Went in for a cider with my mates the manger has very poor customer service and was refusing to serve us for no valid reason. I understand why at the first instance I was not severed as I forgot my id however I went back home brought it to show and he again refused to serve me for apparent bad attitude when all I was asking was a genuine question. Anyone who knows me knows I’m far from having a bad attitude! When coming back with my id and he saw me and my friend he rolled his eyes and shook his head at me it’s not very nice. Hence the feeling of feeling disrespected. Absolutely disgusting. Honestly felt racially profiled I am devastated. In this day and age? Really? Is it really that hard to smile and do your job of serve a drink? Went back in today after this incident purely due to meeting friends and convenience and as I felt over the situation. Was told I couldn’t be served unless I apologised to the manager who was being rude to me previously. I said yes that’s fine I’ll apologise purely to avoid another situation. A different manager came to speak to me and her attitude and demeanour from the beginning was already rude. She said I had to delete my previous review and why come back if I left a one star review. She had an issue with the fact I used race in my review however I’ve read previous reviews and other people have said the same thing. She was shouting at me in the middle of the bar, very unprofessional, and felt very attacking. I still decided to apologise to avoid my friends from having to leave. She then refused to take my apology. So just a heads up don’t leave a one star review and don’t speak about your bad experience unless you want to be shouted at spoken rudely to when you are just trying to get a drink after a hard day. I have never had an issue like this in any other pub or bar and initially felt like I shouldn’t post this experience to prevent them from further targeting me. However I am leaving York very soon and feel like this should be said. i am not trying to be disrespectful purely expressing my feelings as I felt like I couldn’t speak to the manager properly due to her predisposition of the situation."
