" cozy, and the food is absolutely delicious. The sushi is fresh and beautifully presented, and the ramen is a must-try. The service is friendly and attentive, making for a very enjoyable dining experience. Overall, a hidden gem in the city that is definitely worth a visit."

"KOI Ramen is one of my favourite places to eat in London so I was thrilled when I found out they could cater for my 40th. The team was superlatively amazing today and everyone raved about the food with most children asking if they could have seconds (the adults swiftly followed suit! . Thank you so much!"

"We went to this restaurant for a meal after a theatre show. We decided to go with the set menu (£25 per person) and ordered the Korean wings and beef with rice. Both dishes were delicious, but the only downside was that the wings were very spicy and we were told that they could not be adjusted to our preference due to being pre-marinated. The service, however, was not as good as the food. We were seated very close to another couple at a nearby table, so close that we could hear their entire conversation, which felt intrusive. We also had to specifically request our drinks order. A 12.5% service charge was automatically added to the bill, which is common in London. However, when we asked for it to be removed because we were not satisfied with the service, we were told it was mandatory. Just a heads up, under UK law, service charges are discretionary unless stated otherwise and can be removed from the bill. After requesting to have the service charge removed, we received a somewhat cold reception, but we felt it was fair given our experience. The staff did eventually fulfill our request. In summary, the food was good, but the service fell short of expectations."

"I was looking forward to going for quite a while, and ended up somewhat disappointed unfortunately. The service was fine, food was ok, atmosphere also just ok, a bit noisy and dark. My main issue is that the food didn't taste very fresh, presentation was nice but the beef was chewy/fatty and everything was salty and lacking other flavours. Nothing was super bad, but I've had much better meals too. I will say the Pumpkin Croquettes and the Sushi were the better parts of my meal, the mains were a let down."

"Very disappointed I asked for chicken jalfrezi but what come was definitely not a jalfrezi it weren’t hot one bit no chillis in the curry at all Plus my mark shroom rice didn’t have no chillis in. Garlic and coriander naan bread was dripping grease and was that tough I could cut through it with my knife. The curry they sent was nice but I didn’t want that I needed a hot curry to cure my hangover plus the chicken looked like it had been cooked in a frying pan by my mum not chicken tikka which is what I expect from a so called 4.7 rated Indian. Sorry but would never order from here again"

"This is a lovely cafe, in a quiet back street behind the theatre. Worth booking, but we managed to get a table by turning up at 5pm. The roti side dish makes an excellent starter, and the tofu ramen and veggie balls were both good. A nice selection of drinks, too. And we took away a nice piece of lemon and pecan sponge cake: it's nice to be able to get a vegan cake that's not flapjack! Staff were lovely, too."

"This branch of Wagamama has a special place in my heart not only because of its amazing location but also because it is very different from the other branches I have been too. Its located on the first floor and as you walk up the stairs you can get the beautiful view of the Spitalfields. There are a range of shops and restaurants located here but my choice is Wagamama. The size of this restaurants is pretty decent and if you like to sit out and have a view while you eat you can do that too since it even provides outdoor seating. Me and my husband decided to sit inside since it was too cold for me and also because we get more privacy inside. We came at a very odd timing around 4.30pm so it had very few people and was not busy at all. The staff were kind enough to let me choose a table of my choice inside. We began by ordering few soft drinks and my absolute favorite Miso Soup. The Miso Soup was just the way it should be in taste except for the fact that it didn't had enough Tofu, I felt that they were stingy with it but otherwise it was flavorful and healthy. For our mains I ordered for myself Prawns Firecracker and my husband had Yasai Katsu Curry. I preferred my dish over my husbands. The Prawns Firecracker had a mild spicy flavor and a lot of colorful veggies. The gravy was nice and tangy and went perfectly well with the Rice. The Yasai Katsu Curry was another completely different dish, it was enjoyable and wonderful but my favorite dish here is the Firecracker which is so satisfying for me. Both the dishes were filled with vegetable which made our plate really colorful, as well as healthy and nutritious without compromising on the taste. The service was a little slow even though there were not many people in there. The quality and quantity was excellent nothing to be complained about that and if you have a taste card you even get a discount on the bill. I had a great time here and if you are also a Wagamama fan you should surely try this branch."

"Lovely evening, delicious food We the enjoyed the variety of gluten free options. Reasonable price Service was okay a bit slow on the drinks but understandable due to it being quite busy. Felt a little rushed at the end as tables had been booked overlapping being an all you can eat you’d expect a longer time slot than 1 hour 30 min especially when it took 15 minutes to take our first order. But over all a very enjoyable experience and will definitely be coming again Dietary restrictions: Good gluten free options Parking: Can park in the hollywell car park which is opposite, £3.50 for 2 hours or Rose hill for £3 for 2 hours (free after 8) which is about a 5 minute walk"

"We ordered a variety of starters, a sushi and sashimi platter, along with some individual sushi hand rolls. Everything was incredibly fresh and tasty. The drink selection was sufficient to meet most preferences. The service was both friendly and efficient, striking a pleasing balance between formal and informal. Additionally, the prices are relatively reasonable for central dining, especially considering the quality offered. If you're in the area, I highly recommend this restaurant. **Service:** Dine-in **Meal type:** Dinner **Price per person:** £50–60 **Food:** 5 **Service:** 5 **Atmosphere:** 5 **Recommended dishes:** Rolls, Sushi Platter"

"Went to the Rising Sun to celebrate my daughters birthday. I emailed in advance to tell them. I ordered a simply steak but they gave me a sirloin which was much more expensive. It was sort full of gristle, too too tough to cut and very disappointing. My daughter orders the salmon pasta. The salmon was like mush and had no firm chunks and was flavourless. My husband had the burger which was fine. No fuss was made about my daughters birthday not even a ‘happy birthday!’. I was then presented with the wrong bill to pay. When I discovered they had charged me for a sirloin not the simple steak I raised it with the waitress who just replied, shrugging her shoulders ‘what do you want me to do?’ I’ve eaten here before and it was great, will I eat there again now no."

"Customer Service needs attention ! I decided to visit for the second time and give them a chance, unfortunately one Sunday at 9:30 pm they said :they don't serve anymore. so I arrived yesterday, Thursday, at 8:30 p.m., I got a menu, asked for water..for the next 15 minutes no one was interested in taking the order, I decided to ask a passing waiter if I could order, then he took out his notebook and took the order, he came back and changed the table number on my card. after over 45 minutes my order was still not there, I asked the manager for the boy's name and to check if he had sent the order. After another 5 minutes, Ryan waiter who took the order came and instead of apologizing that he forgot, he claimed that they had a lot of orders on Deliveroo. I left hungry after an hour and I didn't even hear an apology. I give this place a poor rating, no section, no system in the place no one pays attention to the person sitting alone without food, where there are 5 tables occupied in the rest, the manager does not even exist in the room, poor service and unfortunately I did not manage to eat here for the second time."

"we noticed this beautiful little restaurant after we recently moved to the local opposite and visited last night. we were welcomed by 2 very friendly servers and our selection of tables offered. there is so much to choose without overwhelming the menu. Finally we decided to share the special mixed tempura (prawns, avocado, sweet potato and aubergine deep roasted in a delicious thick teig) and takoyaki (battered octopus balls in yaki sauce with mayo) both appetitzüglers were delicious, but the takoyaki was from this world and I could eat it all day! we both knew that we wanted to ramen, as we had heard, that in contrast to many other Leeds-based restaurants, the ramen here comes with their choice of suppen base; gay, misto, shioyo or cheese and gays and they can also choose which nudels they want; thick udon, thin beech or classic thin egg noodles. we have both settled on the senbon Sakura rays with a squacy soup and rosm noodles – the rug was out of this world, full of tasty grilled hues, frying, salmon, queen roasts and a huge clam. it also comes with nori, a soy marinated egg, early baptism, sesame and wakame seeweed, bohnensprossen and sweet mais. so delicious! after a few bites my man proudly declared that this was his new favorite restaurant in leeds and I agree! the restaurant itself has a really casual and quite traditional Japanese vibe, naked wooden and chairs without kitschige gimmicks and plays really cool, jolly Japanese music. the service was super friendly and fast, we were regularly checked and the dishes were quickly deleted. for 2 nets, 2 starters and 2 drinks, the bill came to £35, which amazing! note that they have no alcohol license yet, but have a good choice of softdrinks and tees. I also look forward to eating and breakfast in the future."

"imagine if they want to, a ancient secular fishing village down in the direction of the mouth of the river thames, which once testifies to a time the Roman poor, who directed his way upwards to lick the city of londinium. that is leigh at the sea, or old leigh, as it is known to the locals. the piece leigh, which was not transformed into a pose paradise of cafe/bars, ladies, eating and illegally parked expensive cars with equally expensive vanity. old leigh is just that old. it has been for hundreds of years to catch and serve in small tile skins. Of course, this has been hand in hand with a series of fine (and just as old) pubs, which have been cared for the soul man for an equally long time. to the peter boat. in its current incarnation, it is one of the newer pubs in old leigh and offers for two different masses: older regular (mostly of the year) and younger trinker (each the sun vague in view from mai to september and over christmas). the pub itself is certainly nothing special standard dishes, standard foods and manages to blur a price increase apparently based on the temperature. the service is always incredibly slow when the bar is busy (each of these sunny days) and the staff in the summer are the next students willing to work for minimum wage regardless of experience or ability. the winter is however a completely different fish boiler, but it is not really winter that makes the peter boat worth a train trip from london. in hot days, this pub comes alive. it generates huge amounts in nothing better than a parking lot full of picnic tables with a portakabin flew seafood in the corner. on one side there is the sea wall and the fishing boats with a view of the mouth canal (muddy sea bed, looking at the flood and coming out and kent far away from a clear day). what makes it special is the pure ingenuity, eccentricity and mix of people who drink in the sun. it is really a melting pot of the Essex people and I apologise to everyone to go there without running into at least one person they know. old leigh is one of my favorite places in my hometown and there are not many! I am not going enough there and I am critical of the overall Southend area. there are places like the peter boat and those who go there for year more that remind me why I loved it when I grew up. if they dare in this direction, they owe a visit....and are not deducted from the brights angels, essex young and girls or seafood they need to meet. it is never really a place, decorations, music or products that cneipen or bars make it the people. so they meet them; all character with their strata and all the long, sunny days of summer to tell them."

"I went to a lovely restaurant with a cozy atmosphere and multiple log fires. I was initially pleased with the special steak supper deal (3 courses for £20 from a select menu), but when the bill came, it was incorrect. The items were listed separately and more expensive than expected. However, after the bill was reprocessed, the cheaper non-steak supper deal mains were grouped together as £20 instead of the actual items purchased. The serving staff were apologetic and mentioned that it was an issue with the IT tills. It would have been better if this error had been checked before the bill was issued."

"Really enjoyed lunch here. We had the deep-fried buffalo cauliflower tapas as a starter, which was fantastic. Then I had the Saitan burger excellent texture and flavour and well garnished) and the italian 'sausage ' sandwich, which my wife seemed to like. The charcoal lemonade was an experience too black, as you 'd imagine). The concept here is to serve vegan versions of non-vegan style food burgers, tapas etc) and they do it very well. I 'd love to see a slightly broader menu but appreciate it 's better to do a few things well that a lot of things badly. The interior 's lovely and the service friendly and relaxed. Prices are perfectly reasonable for a very tasty lunch £32 for two mains with one starter and two soft drinks, no deserts) Still can 't get that buffalo cauliflower out of my mind."

"Staff were slow and not very helpful. We’re there for over an hour and a half, 30 minutes waiting for order to be taken (staff sat us down and said nothing about the online order or anything useful) and a further 40 minutes waiting for our food. At the end we had to ask the same staff member twice for the bill, both times saying they’ll get it and just starting another task straight away. (We gave them 10 minutes each time). So we eventually had a different staff member get us the bill. Would understand if it was during a busy time, but it was half full and even watched another couple leave without eating because they had been waiting just as long. Would’ve been nice to atleast hear an apology but all the staff seemed to just put the clear problem to a side and act as if nothing had happened. (Apart from the young guy at the end who went around after fixing the problems created by his fellow colleagues)."

"Not sure what the hype is about We visited after being recommended by multiple people and seeing glowing reviews online. It was nothing above average. Basic looking restaurant (not aesthetic like it looks online) toilets were very dangerous and didn’t close or you’d get trapped in! Greeted by a rude lady who was too busy on her phone when we walked in and didn’t raise her head to greet us. Waitress was okay but hardly spoke. Took our food drink order awkwardly by just staring at us not even asking. Never checked to see if our food was okay. At the end of the meal we hadn’t even asked for the bill and she put the card machine in our face! We still had 45 minutes left on our table but they couldn’t be quicker to hurry us out! Food was good but way over priced! I had the Tempeh Korean Bibimbap which was £17 for some greasy tempeh, plain rice, stale Asian salad an egg. Overall very average, glad we went to see what it was about but we won’t be back again"

"Had passed this location a few times but we finally had time to stop and try it out. The staff were friendly and very efficient. Our order one of the ramens and multiple portions of salmon nagiri) arrived to our table moments after we sat down. It was delicious the ramen was wonderful so rich in flavour yet not overpowering. As for the nagiri.... oh my god. Could not get enough of that went back for more more portions than im willing to admit. The rice was firm and held its shape well, even when faced with the absolute assault from my chopsticks. The salmon on top was fresh and light ,wrapped the top and sides of the rice in a generous portion. Sushi stop? I wish it wouldn't ! would happily of eaten all the nagiri they had and given how affordable it was I probably could have if I had more time. Get the feeling I'm going to be getting plenty of chopstick practice here."

"We had a table booked for a late lunch on a Sunday and were disappointed there was no roast option on the Specials board. The food we did have was excellent and it’s a great family and dog friendly pub restaurant in a wonderful setting. Service was very slow and lacking any sort of interest or attention when we visited the place seemed to be staffed with a bunch of half asleep teenagers. Maybe things will pick up once we are into the busier season!"
