"yakinori sits on a section of the bristol road that is not known for its culinary excellence. it is student center; a stone throw from the university birmingham, where cheap beer and average Indian restaurants go hand-in-hand together, while pissed-up students cavort or do what pissed-up students do these days. I like this part of brum, because I can come with low expectations and not after home disappointed or broken. but eating good? No, that's a myth. or at least it was until yakinori arrived."

"My friend and I visited this restaurant during the summer to enjoy a cocktail and sit outside on their terrace. The area was beautifully decorated with artificial flowers and grass, and the staff was friendly."

"Don’t usually write reviews but we had a fantastic time. Food was 10/10 and a special mention for MARIA who served us for a short time, she was very attentive to our needs and made the whole experience 10x better. The restaurant looked busy as well which is always good news. Make sure to come at happy hour, we got a lot of food bottle of wine for £80. We will be coming back."

"Yakinori has a dedicated Veg Vegan Menu of Japanese fusion food and the restaurant is fun and vibrant. Lots of vegan options and delicious, too. My favourites are the vegan yasai donburi, kabocha pumpkin katsu, vegan yasai ramen, the vegan sushi (especially the inari sweet tofu nigiri) and the vegan yasai gyoza. They do really good vegan bubble teas at Yakinori Bristol, too! The service is always warm and friendly and they also have 2 branches in Birmingham."

"We came at lunch time for the buffet, which is where you pay 24.80 pp and can have as many dishes as you want- just a few examples are sushi, ramen, miso soup, prawn toast, tempura and noodles! Such a variety of dishes to choose from! The service is absolutely top notch- so friendly and they give you sesame oil, sweet chilli sauce, soy sauce, wasabi and ginger on the table for you and they also frequently top water up and take away your plates for you. For the buffet, they give you a sheet and you tick which dishes you want (up to 6 per person per round) and then they serve them to you as they are ready! Everything was SO fresh and piping hot and so authentic! Absolutely highly recommend if you’re a sushi lover but also just general Japanese/Asian cuisine lover because there is SO much to choose from! We ended up ordering the maximum of 12 dishes for the first round (there was 2 of us) and then 4 dishes for the 2nd round! But we were fully full after 6 dishes each! Some dishes are bigger than others too which is really nice. Will definitely be going here again!"

"Amazing! This restaurant serves the best sushi for miles. Make sure to try the dragon roll, it's the absolute best. This location is the second in the chain."

"I’ve been to Kintan at Oxford Circus before, but this is the first time I went to the branch. The food was really great as expected. But the service was a bit odd. The waiters kept on interrupting us asking whether they can bring the bill, almost as if they wanted to get rid of us. That was very annoying, because we a bunch of friends meeting after about a year, and we were trying have some quality conversations, and it’s not ideal when you keep getting disturbed every 3 minutes…. In the end we had to tell him to stop interrupting us and that we will call him when we are ready to pay. I have loved in Japan for 5 years, and this is definitely not the Japanese kind of service. In Japan almost all restaurants have a calling bell, and the waiters do not disturb or eavesdrop on their customers’ conversations , and come to the table only when they are needed. If Kintan wants to provide a truly Japanese yaki-niku experience, they should learn some this Japanese service standards as well."

"really beautiful decoration atmosphere. but coming from a city, were Japanese eating is top class and moving to england I find misugo a bit over price. the sushi is beautiful, but not as high quality, the fried gyoza tastes really good, but the katsu curry tasted like a microwave dinner with 2kg rice, my own Japanese curry tastes better. I always go back here and hope that I find something new because it is hard to find good japaners in my opposite, and the staff is lovely, but eating is only average for the price they pay."

"I have visited this restaurant at least 10 times in the last 2 years, as it is in a quiet opposite close to a climbing center. the restaurant is clean, cozy and the staff is always attentive. there are around 7 or 8 tables. some for larger groups and then some smaller, so it is never too busy and therefore eating is served quite quickly. there is a large selection of feeds from yakisoba, variations of sushi, bento boxes and nude and rice dishes as well as many appetizers. I have always found the portions to be generous and the aromes are also very good. the best part is that the price is extremely reasonable, rough £15 per person she will be good and really full in the rule with a starter and a pornstar. the restaurant itself is not the most atmospheric or elaborate in terms of decor, but it is warm and comfortable with generally good employees. highly recommended for anyone looking for a pleasant experience."

"The flavours of the dishes were high definition and really came through strong with every bite. Teriyaki Chicken was lovely and is must order again next time. Prawn Tempura and Katsu Chicken were very crispy! All the Sushi Rolls were amazing! The menu came with pictures which really helped with understanding what to order. There was also a snapshot of history on the dishes with was a nice touch and added to the theatre of the meal. Food is very filling. The customer service is exemplary. They went above and beyond to create an experience for the customer and I really appreciated this as it was my birthday. Decor was lovely and intimate! Payment quick and easy to splits with the card machine. Not even attached the surface on how lovely this place is. Must go back soon!!!"

"We arrived 5 minutes early and waited by the door for 10 minutes past our reservation time. The staff seemed preoccupied with chatting and taking delivery orders, and did not seat us or check on us. The service seemed slow, possibly due to understaffing. However, the food was amazing as always. We ordered using a QR code and received our food faster than if we had waited for the staff. We were also automatically charged extra for tips, which we found unfair as it should be optional. We will consider whether to return to this restaurant in the future."

"We are just loving this place. Our third visit and we keep coming back for more. In our opinion it is the best place in London right now to get japanese food and believe me we have been to quite a few japanese restaurants. Fabulous food, well cooked and seasoned, extensive menu and the staff could not be more helpful and attentive. We had two orders of edamme as appetisers then moved on to duck chicken gyoza. So difficult to stop eating these delightful dumplings but we forced ourselves and moved onto chicken katsu and salmon teriyaki. Both were absolutely delicious. We finished with creamy chocolate and coffee cocktails. Coupled with heavenly Miles Davis on the airwaves we left walking on air and are currently planning our next visit. With the 50% off we paid £19.60 for the whole meal. Incredible value"

"We were travelling from London for a night in Weston, and were so disappointed with food choices in Weston Super Mare. And then we came across Ebisu. It’s a small Japanese restaurant hidden away on Regent street. It was Saturday evening and we wanted an early dinner, luckily there was a table for two available for us. Restaurant is small, and tables become hard to come by as most are reserved in advance. Decor is tastily minimalistic, simple and clean, we loved hand painted wallpaper. We ordered Chicken Karaage and Ebisu cauliflower to wake up our taste buds, and Salmon donburi and Crispy potato Katsu for our mains. Many Japanese restaurants make compromises, this one didn’t. Food was superb and authentic, portions were generous, each served fresh slaw of daikon and carrot or salad leaves, each bite you took was superbly flavoursome. We were particularly impressed with Ebisu Cauliflower. We can honestly say that this one is one of best Japanese we have eaten for a long time. If you love Japanese food, this one is for you, do book in advance. We will be back."

"This was once my favorite sushi restaurant in Glasgow, where I reside. However, it appears that another restaurant called Meets Noodles has taken over this establishment and kept the old name in an attempt to maintain previous customers. Unfortunately, none of the new staff members speak English, which has led to multiple issues with incorrect orders and lack of communication. I have called the restaurant and after numerous attempts to communicate in English, they have hung up on me. The same situation occurred when a delivery service called Caitlins tried to clarify an order. This change in service due to non-English speaking staff has been frustrating for me and has deterred me from ordering from them. It seems that the restaurant may no longer specialize in sushi. I would advise caution when ordering from here, as the lack of English communication has impacted the overall experience. Sadly, I will no longer consider this restaurant as a sushi option in Glasgow, but they may still offer delicious noodles."

"This Japanese restaurant serves delicious food! I have visited multiple times and have always been satisfied. The service is excellent and the dishes are wonderful. We tried the vegetable ramen and salmon bento, both of which were not only generous in portion size but also incredibly affordable. The food arrived at our table within 10 minutes of ordering, and we were impressed by the efficiency. Our bill came to around 40 pounds for dinner for two, including drinks. I highly recommend this restaurant to anyone in search of quick and delicious Japanese cuisine."

"I have been here 4 times in the last 2 years and the first 2 experiences were amazing, the third I felt like the quality was dropping but still ok. But I went last night with 4 friends and the waiter was really not bothered, my ramen had next to no toppings which I was quite gutted, I had 2 slivers of bamboo, for as the vegan ramen is really expensive for quite basic ingredients, but the star of the show for me was always the tofu cake which is an incredible home made tofu cake with seaweed and spices and it’s just to die for. They have now replaced the tofu cake with plain fried tofu and I just don’t think it was worth it. My friends who had not been said they enjoyed theirs (but also they had meat). Was somewhere I used to recommend for veggies but honestly it would have been worth £8, maybe…. Not £15. Such a shame as I loved this place."

"Proper authentic Asian food in the heart of Guildford. Not fancy or overpriced, but homely and down to earth. The bibimbap is the best I've had for a while served in a proper hot stone bowl and the sushi and gyoza are excellent as well. One of my favourite places in Guildford to eat. One small thing I'd change and which I always like in Asian owned restaurants is free or endless tea of some kind if you order a meal. I'm also not a fan of ordering via an app you do have the option of ordering from a member of staff though. Part of the eating experience for me is the social aspect and also chatting to the serving staff for recommendations etc. Food: 5 Service: 4 Atmosphere: 5"
