"This restaurant in London consistently serves fresh and delicious sushi at a fraction of the price of Nobu. It is truly a hidden gem and offers quality sushi that rivals that of Nobu."

"The only complaint I have is that everything felt a bit worn out and not take care of. The menus were falling apart. The floor was sticky. The decor also felt a little off. Just looks like the person who owns it doesn’t really care all that much for it. But the chef we had was charming and the food was good. My kids loved it and I haven’t had tepanyaki in years. Overall a pleasant experience, just don’t walk in with high expectations."

"Okasan, meaning Mother in Japanese, is a bijou restaurant on the fashionable Portobello Road in W10. A yearning for a plate of sashimi, tempura and some dumplings drew me in to have a final treat before the rigours of co-running my own food business set in after a brief and well deserved break. My companion, a lover of Japanese salad dressings ordered a simple salad, chicken karaage, deep fried chicken and ginger with a spicy mayonnaise and we agreed on a delicate Pinot Girgot blush, a Sospiro priced at £17.00. The salad arrived first and the dressing was so good I had to beg the waitress to tell us what the ingredients were. The chef duly obliged. It was a mix of vinegar, peanuts, sugar, apple juice, water, salt, vegetable oil, sesame seeds and soy sauce. Knowing what is in your food doesn't mean you can recreate the same taste, but I'm going to give it a damned good try. It was simply sensational. Next came the steamed and pan fried dumplings; little golden nuggets of yumminess. My sashimi was spankingly fresh and served with the usual wasabi and the thin slivers of ginger had the perfect tartness to marry with the oily fish. If I had a little gripe it was that there was no daikon, the shredded Japanese radish (or mooli) that has a lovely crunch to it and nearly always accompanies it. The deep fried chicken that had been marinated in soy and ginger was delicious and the spicy mayo packed a punch. I don't recall ever seeing mayo on a Japanese menu before, (this was mayo mixed with chili sauce) but it worked. The wine, ice cold and very pleasant quaffing vino to boot slipped down all too easily. Being a greedy git I then ordered some prawn tempura, the batter of which was light as a feather and a crispy, heavenly coating for the juicy king prawns inside. A double espresso later and the bill came to £60. Japanese food is never cheap (especially when you think of the price of sashimi grade fish which only lasts a day at most) but the flavours, the delicacy, the quality of a good Japanese experience is well worth the price in my book and that's exactly what we had. I'm already looking forward to the next visit."

"Shimogano opened in 2013 in a parade of shops on Camden Parkway. It is named after an ancient Kyoto Shinto shrine that is a UNESCO world heritage site. The restaurant has a small dining area and bar at ground level, the main dining room being in the basement. The décor is fairly basic, and the restaurant serves a wide variety of Japanese cuisine styles, from sushi to tempura to noodles and beyond. This slightly scattergun approach is normal in London but unusual in Japan, where most restaurants specialise, sometimes to an extreme degree e.g. some restaurants serve only eel, or only tonkatsu. It must be difficult for any restaurant to really master such a wide menu. See more at:...read more"

"Firstly , we get a takeaway from here almost every Friday night the sushi is absolutely fantastic and the food quality overall is excellent but we always collect as despite living five minutes drive away it can be very Hap hazard in terms of accuracy and time for delivery . Last week we decided to meet friends there instead 8.15 booking , food again delicious but when we asked for plates as we wanted to share a number of dishes the saucers were produced for each of us with no serving spoons. Everything seems to be a hassle when asked for . I then asked for a coffee at 9.30 I was told in a rude fashion that no I couldn’t as the kitchen closes at 9 pm !! Despite there being another two tables still in the restaurant the bleach bucket and mop then appeared to start cleaning down the restaurant ! This included the whole way down the stairs which was completely wet as we carefully tried to leave without slipping on the freshly mop floors at 10 pm on a Friday night ! you feel like you are imposing and irritating them by eating in . So 5 outta 5 for a takeaway but 2/5 as an eating in experience im afraid ."

"The salmon teriyaki was perfectly fine, the £14.50 price point for a bento box is okay too. But I find the meal underwhelming. Certain details that are quintessential to Japanese food just wasn’t there. There was no sauce to accompany the lettuce for example, or that I had to ask for wasabi as it wasn’t served with the bento box, even though they put a couple of maki rolls in there. I can name a couple of Japanese restaurants nearby I’d rather visit next time. Price per person: £10–20 Food: 3 Service: 3 Atmosphere: 3"

"Many children frequent this restaurant, including my own. I recently discovered from my son that he has had trouble receiving the correct change from a specific employee. It seems that many of the children either didn't notice or didn't bother to check their change before, but now they realize that he rounds up the prices. When my son confronted him, he dismissed it by saying they didn't need the extra change or questioning if it really mattered. This behavior is unacceptable, and if he is consistently shortchanging the children, it can add up. In addition to what I consider to be subpar food, they are taking advantage of vulnerable kids. Even small amounts like 1p to 51p may not seem significant, but it is still theft."

"We visited this restaurant a few weeks ago and had such a nice meal that we decided to go back. However 2 of the green Thai chicken curry were too hot to eat this time! So it would be worth stressing how hot /mild you want your curry. Otherwise a beautiful evening with attentive staff. Maybe it would be a good idea to check back to the meal earlier."

"The restaurant was closed and no one contacted us. We had planned to celebrate my mum's 60th birthday there, so we were really disappointed. Thankfully, we found Sushinoen, a restaurant just a 13-minute walk away, which saved our night. The Japanese food was amazing and authentic, highly recommended. We will not be trying Kirin restaurant again and do not recommend it to anyone."

"I like it here, but I prefer her new sister restaurant in partick. this place will not take any reservations, so they have to try their luck if they get a table, and they never play K-Pop despite a Korean restaurant. who does in partick, and they take reservations. they also have two different types of pancakes on their vegan menu. Otherwise, if they are in the city center and looking for kitchen a bit different than burger and pizza, I would recommend checking this place. in portions are good."

"Su Sushi is a great restaurant that recently had a slight increase in prices, but they are still better than any other Ramen/Sushi place. Whenever my friend and I go there, someone always greets us with a friendly hello or a few nice words, as we are regulars. It's nice that sometimes it's just us, as we prefer a quieter dining experience. The closing times are convenient for us, as we can grab a bite to eat after being on the buses all day. I recommend going on an empty stomach when ordering the ramen, as the portions are large but delicious. My favorite dish is the chicken katsu ramen, while my friend enjoys the black belt. The Tokyo roll or rainbow roll are excellent choices for sushi. The menu offers a good selection of dishes that are easy to read. The only downside is that they only accept cash, so we have to make sure we have enough money before heading in."

"My family and I visited this restaurant once again for a delicious meal, and we were not disappointed. The food had delicate flavors and was fresh, and the service was discreet. Akemi herself oversees all the cooking, ensuring high standards and consistency. I realized that my first review was over 10 years ago, which is a testament to the quality of this place. The menu has been reduced, indicating that the food is prepared fresh. They have a large selection of sake, which I appreciate as someone who is sensitive to alcohol but never experiences headaches with sake. I will be returning tonight and look forward to another great dining experience."
