"I was very hesitant about ordering sushi and having it delivered without seeing it first; so often places either turn out to be ‘sushi that’s sat there’ (alike itsu all day and not prepared to order) or sushi that’s freshly prepared and made to order. Well, this was lovely! Fresh nicely sized pieces with good quality salmon and yummy avocado. This for sure wasn’t prepared and sat there all day in a fridge with no doors. Would definitely order sushi from here again so great! The katsu sauce was amazing !!! (Next time I’d even order a pot of this on the side). The chicken with it was a little dry but the udon noodles were lovely. My miso soup was a tad strong, very salty so I diluted it a little and that was great. Would 100% order from here again. If you’re reading this now- do it!"

"Never judge a book by it's cover. From the outside it doesn't look much more inviting than any other restaurant on this strip. Step inside and the decor is a little dated albeit clean and tidy. Service is excellent. All the staff are friendly. Most importantly however the food is outstanding. Having eaten in a number of Japanese and Korean restaurants it can always be a little hit and miss. I have never had a bad dish here. I look forward to my next visit very much and sampling more of the excellent food."

"Unfortunately, my papaya salad was certainly not freshly prepared.... the tomatoes were soaky and also the fresh salad vegetables with gum-like bite also the dressing was not pikant. The chicken with vegetables and cashew nuts was all right from the general taste, but also the meat appeared to me with a taste, as warmed up. My companions had more luck with pasta dishes and spring rolls. But I will no longer come through this bad luck. If I pay about 50 € for two bottles of water, an appetizer and a main dish, I expect a better quality. The service was extremely friendly!"

"While the food was mostly good, the service left a lot to be desired. Beef tartare: everything is good except the yolk that 's set too much, It would have better incorporated with other ingredients if it was a bit more liquid. Chicory salad: while the taste and its simplicity is to be loved, one has to realize that it 's Literally 5 chicory leaves with some pomegranate seeds and herbs, 5 tiny pieces of blue cheese, and 5 drizzles of dressing. My main course was halibut accompanied by a tomato salad, some pak choi, and a garlic bread everything was scrumptious with good aftertaste. The fish knife was smeared in herbs from the chicory salad (I 'm a clumsy eater . At the moment of serving the fish, I requested a clean knife. They brought it and just placed it next to the dirty one. The idea to take the latter out and wipe the table seems to have never crossed the waiter 's mind... This was pretty much the last time a waiter came by my table. Pak Choi is quite sturdy and cannot be cut with the fish knife my request for a different knife hasn 't been satisfied. My wine glass was left unattended. My attentive looks at the waiter afar were met with a smile But He Never Came Back To Me. Finally, I 've paid, then had to pack my wine leftovers by myself. The sommelier appeared again only to give me my coat and chase me to the door with strange questions Do you want a glass for the wine? , Do you want to put it on your room? (After my payment! etc. Overall, I believe my personality has not been illustrious enough to be met with proper service at this restaurant."

"We had a 6pm booking and service started approximately 6:25. Our server was very nice, professional and quick after a delayed start. The food was very good, and we enjoyed both the food and service. After a very nice meal with a variety of starters, sushi, maki, we were ready to consider dessert. At 7:30pm, a different server came to our table and told us that we had to leave because they had another booking for our table. This was after they had just seated another party of 4 without a booking at the table next to ours. The server was extremely rude and unprofessional. There was no notice about a 90 minute time period prior. After spending £227 on our bill we were made to feel unwelcome and were hurried out the door. Even though the food was good, and we live locally in Richmond, we will never return after this experience. As a family of four people, to be told to leave technically after an hour of service is absurd. They will not be successful if the unprofessional service and attitude continues. Really unfortunate and bad experience."

"We went after their great renovation and the ambience is good for one night in a quiet yet lively restaurant. However, given the situation not central London compared to all other many other Japanese restaurants I was, the prices are too high. I pay less for everything in an authentic Japanese restaurant in central locations. Sushi quality is great with thick and fresh cuts and good decoration and good selection of menu for the size of the kitchen. A dish that I do not enjoy was my favorite grilled egg on rice, the size of the aal was 1/3 of the normal size for the price of £18, as the aal prices have decreased little in recent years. For this reason I gave 2 star of 5 for value. If you are looking for great sushi in Kentish Town, there is no other place, so I recommend if you are a local Japanese fan."

"Tucked away in a basement on Strutton Ground, this tiny little establishment appears to be pretty authentic. Despite it being a random weekday evening, it fills up very quickly and by the time we’re heading up to leave, it’s pretty much full. We arrive a variety of elements to share and everything arrives promptly. The soft shell crab tempura is lightly battered, hot and fresh, but it does lack a certain wow factor. However, the selections of the different types of Sashimi we’ve gone for are all fresh and light and very clearly of the highest quality so we find ourselves ordering a few more of these to keep us going. The chicken gyoza is better than most other dumpligns I’ve tried, served warm with a very comforting and nourishing filling, they bulk out what is otherwise quite a light meal. Service is a little slow, with the size of the place, there’s only one girl busily running around trying to get to everyone, but the food is absolutely top notch. Worth going with a few more people and ordering up a larger selection!"
"This restaurant is a true hidden gem, comparable to some of the best Japanese restaurants I have been to. I would choose to dine here over those top restaurants any day. The food is exceptional, with generous portions that maintain a high quality, making it great value for money. The cozy and intimate atmosphere provides a peaceful space to unwind and savor delicious food with sake."

"The experience was mediocre. Unfortunately, we were isolated from the rest of the table. We were seated in an awkward spot between two groups, leading to us feeling excluded. The chefs focused their attention on the other diners first before cooking for us. The food was decent, but it was clear that some chefs were more enthusiastic than others. It was unusual to be asked to move to another table for the final course. Overall, we left feeling quite disappointed."
