"Really disappointing we used to be regulars pre pandemic, first time back and it seems much has changed. Maybe they were having an off night but the tempura was soaked in oil, they did change it but the new dish came back the same, dripping. The rolls were fine but nothing blew us away like it used to. The atmosphere was different, I don’t know if it’s changed ownership but where we used to come out of this place buzzing, it was just flat and the staff just seemed so indifferent. The other thing that really ruined the atmosphere are all the delivery drivers who stand outside impatiently pressing the buzzer and looking through the window the same window we and our friend were seated at. I did food deliveries during the pandemic and was always respectful of diners when in dining came back I always made sure the staff knew I was there then would wait discreetly… Maguro really need to have some system in place so the drivers don’t gang up around the entrances, it completely ruins the experience from the moment you arrive and have to push past the drivers to get into the restaurant! So disappointing and I’m not sure we’d come back to dine in."

"During our trip to Japan last year, we dined at Kiri and were thoroughly impressed by the authentic flavors. The restaurant's label as an Izakaya primarily reflected its ambience and decor, rather than its menu. However, this was insignificant as the food was exceptional. We opted for the tasting menu with Sake Pairing, which was priced at a reasonable £60 per person. We were elated by this fantastic discovery and are eager to return for another memorable dining experience."

"We were greeted by the owner Ken, he asked us if we were ok, we explained that we wanted to be seated for drinks. He sat us down, the waitress came we ordered and she said you must get something to eat, we just ate somewhere else and wanted to sit for drinks, so we ordered two starters with our drinks. To my surprise after we ordered Ken walked back and started to tell us that we shouldn’t have sat there if we’re just having drinks and to leave straight after the drinks. The whole vibe changed, I didn’t even want to have my drink. I paid £50 for two starters and two drinks and Ken’s horrible service. I’ve never been treated like that especially by an owner of a restaurant. Why wasn’t this mentioned before we ordered, why after? How can you tell someone have your drink and leave? When I said you are making me uncomfortable he replied, good leave. I just looked at my friend in disappointment as I recommended this restaurant to her. The reason your restaurant isn’t making enough is because of your service not customers coming for drinks. The embarrassment of him having a go in-front of the other customers wasn’t nice and the sad thing is he treats his waiters and waitresses with no respect as well as his customers."

"the best japaners in the opposite; tasty eating, cheap, great service they can not ask for much more. I went on a Sunday afternoon in the afternoon when it was quite quiet, and had a lot of straightened (all pictured). the service was fast and friendly, and offered advices to menu points. the sushi tasted fresh, the curry was unique and tasteful, and the bark was so good I would recommend it very much. for two people with a decent amount of sushi, two meals and a drink each (a tea, a beer,) it came to £40, not bad at all. overall, they try hibagon when they are in the opposite, it is good to travel."

"Ashdown Park Hotek and Country Club, Wych Cross, East Sussex. We arrived to a very welcoming burning log fire, staff were very couteous, we were taken to our table and ordered from the table d hote menu. We were given an a pre starter courtesy of the chef. Our starter Hallumi cheese wrapped in herbs and sesame seeds was absolutely delicious. My main of seabass on a bed of spinach was lovely, my husband had venison which he said melted in his mouth and the creme brulee was just amazing"

"Wonderful service especially from our waiter Rana. Very speedy and delicious! If I was to be very picky the music was a little loud but that was purely personal taste and didn’t take away from the food or experience :"

"The whole experience was just a treat from start to finish. Loved the welcome from James and subsequently his attentiveness as Front of House (Apparently he is relatively new, you certainly wouldn't think so given his professionalism and knowledge of all the dishes and associated drinks pairings! then we had a lovely trio of waitresses who were exuberant, fun and professional as well as attentive. Then you have the food my word! Clever, inventive, unusual, and most importantly bursting with flavour and a joy to eat. Easily the best value tasting menu in Yorkshire (and therefore in England! with decent sized and exotic drinks pairings. An absolutely delightful evening fit to celebrate 30 years of marriage to my wonderful wife, which was recognised with a very personal and lovely touch by Jono and the team that left us both teary eyed a huge thanks to everyone for a lovely experience."

"Given the concern with we thought the restaurant handled the rules very well. The waitresses all wore masks as did the guests coming in and out. Our table was well distanced at the back with air circulating from the annexe when the door opened. The restaurant was spotless as were the cloakroom facilities The staff were very friendly and the Christmas decorations created a good ambience."

"After making an online reservation for a table, I arrived at the restaurant only to find it was closed. Given the numerous messages in their inbox, it was clear they had not been operating for quite some time. This restaurant should be removed from listings, as it is no longer in business."

"The restaurant has a wonderful atmosphere in the garden, especially in the sunny weather. I thoroughly enjoyed my main course of grilled salmon. However, the dessert was disappointing as the cherry-flavored ice cream was a bright pink color instead of the expected vanilla with cherry pieces. The service could have been improved, as the starter arrived before the wine and was left at the table."

"Have visited this restaurant many times and always been impressed with food, service etc. Our last visit seemed to be not up to their usual high standard possibly due to being very busy. Food was slow to arrive there was a long gap between different parts of our main and the drinks arrived after the starters. The wait staff were rushed off their feet but kept their composure and could not be faulted. They did knock 10% off the bill. If we visit again it won’t be on a Saturday."

"As always my experience was, the food was excellently presented and tasty, but also in a relatively busy evening the upper floor lacked a little ambience, not by positioning besides 3 businessmen over their obviously very important day in loud voices. We moved. The background music hardly authentic Spanish! also distracted from the entire ambience. The service was very pleasant, but typical Mediterranean at speed and attention. I mentioned in my booking comments that I celebrated a birthday of friends and that I wanted to make the evening special. I came up with gifts that were opened at the table, but no extra effort was obvious what was somewhat disappointing. The selection of wines is now limited. certainly the impressive displays around the walls has decreased and while the bottle of Rioja that we have chosen was good, the 400% brand up saw a little steep even for London. Overall, I think that the message is that this is a fabulous restaurant the design and decor are stunning, but they just have to work harder in producing the culinary experience that is something more special and authentic."

"what a great place to eat with amazing food and excellent service! first visit, but certainly not the last one for me and other half. as a big sushi fan I was always tired of the idea of the fusion and I was really trained on the beauty of the fusing kitchen. the food was really excellent and the aromes from this world . we are looking forward to our next visit! thanks to the teams of tropical sushi, which is super, friendly, welcoming and smiling."

"Service was great from the start. I liked that the waitress knew my name without looking at the reservation book. Service was always done with a smile. The food was amazing (especially the Esterhazy cake . We had the Gulasch soup and the salmon to start. Maine was the veal Wiener Schnitzel. Largest portion of schnitzel I have had in London! It was good. Dessert was the Maronitorte and Esterhazy torte. I really liked the atmosphere; it was authentic and this coming from someone who grew up in Wien. Will definitely return soon. (I’m also ordering one of their cakes ."

"Decent sushi, props to the chef. We had the sushi master selection for two people (28 pieces of assorted sushi, 2 miso soups and bottomless green tea) and some tuna sashimi at the end which came to £26 altogether which is a reasonable price for sushi from what I've seen. It's a small stall in the bullring fish market run by just the chef so it has an authentic feel and a nice atmosphere. I would recommend Otoro sushi however I suggest booking ahead as it is always busy."
