Sapporo Ichiban - Menu

The food at this restaurant is excellent and the ambiance is pleasant. I visited with friends last Tuesday and we had a wonderful experience. There were many options to choose from, all freshly prepared. They also offer a selection of Asian beers.

for years back! beautiful restaurant, location not great, but who does not see it to see eating was always fantastic from the massive selection of sushi to the beautiful dressed like aromatic duck or a katsu curry portions are massive and prizes are fantastic! book in advance to get a beautiful table.

catford has best kept secret, it is rare for me to venture in the southwest of london. sapporo ichiban is located at a random location near the rear streets of catford centre. do not let them be discouraged from the loading front over the glass doors, there is a huge fish pond with huge goldfish. right is the open kitchen and bar where they cut the cook sashimi and cook the hot food. Restaurant staff wearing traditional Japanese kimonos and hakamas, the times I went, they were polite, but tend to forget that they ask.

good if they're in catford. first, the nice waitress could not tell us what was in the Sashimi plate. nevermind we took a slime and ordered it anyway. it turned out that the fish was quite fresh, although the pieces were cut sloppy and were still glued to the edges. as a lover of tobiko I had this sushi often in my life, all over the world. it was as if the chef simply could not be disturbed and hit the tobiko, the setang crushed like all Chinese running Japanese restaurants, they try to give them more rice than sushi. this is in order, but if the restaurant owner reads this, I would suggest...read more

Beware of the reviews This place is NO GOOD!. I saw a 97% rating for this place thought, okay it must be awesome. I made a reservation here for a special occasion The area is dilapidated and although the restaurant is a gem in the area it is only considered so because you would be comparing it to the trashed store next door and public toilets facing the restaurant (see streetview Food is not good by Urban Spoon standards. The sushi was rushed and unfinished in its preparation. Service was slow and we needed to provide several reminders which of course is frustrating. The place wasn't even good value for money Save yourself the trip.

I found this place by accident while taking a different route home. While it looks nothing special from the outside, it definitely has a lot to offer and is a very good value for money. Aside from traditional tables you can also seat Japanese style at the low tables which adds to the climate. The menu is very rich, prices are very low and portions generous. You can choose from a selection of starters, sushi and variety of hot dishes. My personal favourite were takoyaki and it’s probably the only place you can find them in this area. I also went for chicken kara-age, crispy squid, prawn rolls and mushrooms on skewers. All freshly made and served hot to the table. Very nice service as well and

I always have to eat here at least one to three times a month. Best Asian restaurant in Lewisham/Catford. I love the ambience. They are so good at what they are doing and the food they make. The bento boxes are worth it as well as the starters. The staff are so polite and welcoming. I was gonna give a 5* in total but I had to go with 4* because I badly need them to have a delivery but still not. I have been going to this restaurant for years and I honestly feel like it's time to step up the game. It is quite a trek to travel from Lewi to Catford especially when I'm so tired from work so I highly suggest a delivery. Otherwise I couldn't ask for any better, just a slight additional recommendat...

This review may not be the most helpful, but I felt the need to provide a balanced perspective amidst the overwhelmingly positive reviews that convinced us to visit this restaurant. As a gluten-free diner, I had limited options and ended up with a dish of rice, dried meat, and pickled vegetables on the side. Despite the lack of choices, when mixed together, the dish was surprisingly tasty. Unfortunately, my friend's meal, which I cannot recall the name of, looked unappetizing and she did not enjoy it. Her daughter also did not find her meal to be impressive. I felt guilty looking at their plates and regretted inviting them. However, we did appreciate the unique experience of sitting on the f...

Sapporo never disappoints. The food was delicious, including the wine. We felt safe with the spaced out tables and regular sanitization, and the service was excellent. I have been to this restaurant a few times over the years and wanted to show my support after the UK lockdown. The service was impeccable: we were given space when needed and attended to when ready to order more. We enjoyed starters like pork gyoza, avocado rolls, and vegetable tempura before moving on to mains like chicken ramen and duck teriyaki bento box, accompanied by a full-bodied house red wine. The veggie tempura, although missing sweet potato and peppers, was still tasty with battered mushrooms and cauliflower. The be...
