Atari-ya foods in Barnet

WARNING everyone!! This place is HYGINE RATE 1! (11th.Oct.2024) First of all, the prices of the items are all different, and I've noticed that the price is a couple of pounds more for each item after I paid. I told this to the staff, and they said, “Oh, the price has changed recently, and we haven't updated it since.” They weren't even busy; three people were standing around without any customers. I'm really not sure why they haven't changed the prices. I could have returned the items since they are much cheaper near my home, but I didn't want to fuss about it, and now I regret that decision. If the owner is checking this review, please do change the prices. Leaving different prices feels almost like a con. I have been to other Atariya locations, and they are 100% better. I don't expect great service, but at least the staff should do their job properly. I came from far away to buy sashimi, but I was so disappointed by the unfriendly staff that I stopped buying. Furthermore, when I purchased miso, the price was completely different from what was displayed. When I informed the staff, a surly clerk told me, ``The price has changed recently, and the price tag has remained the same.'' There were three clerks standing in the shop with no customers, but were there no instructions to change the price? It's been a while since I felt bad. I don't know if it's bad management or a problem with the part-time workers, but the staff's behavior is very disappointing and I really can't recommend this place. When I checked the HYGINE RATE later, it was 1. It's too scary for a place that handles raw fish.

Lots of fresh products and good service

Difficult but had to give 4 out of 5 because of a few cons. Very good sushi, decent prices. Service is great. But they seem to sell fish listed as one thing (fatty tuna) then actually give another. (Medium fatty) ...See photos Also sell Snow Crab in the freezer to defrost at home but don't make California rolls etc with real crab, only crab stick which is horrible. Manager said it's because the local clientele obviously avoid shellfish, yet they still sell Prawn sushi?! Makes no sense. :( Sell it and people will buy it! Who doesn't love good snow crab?! I suggest you look at how good the Hendon Atari-ya sushi is and follow!

What a find, great produce, lovely freshly made sushi and people who know there stuff serving. Will be making this a regular place to visit.

Japanese supermarket with a small food counter and seats. Food is not bad, but overpriced, even more expensive than proper restaurants further in London.

I have been buying sushi and sashimi from this shop from nearly a decade. Always very good quality fresh fish.

Great food, atmosphere and service could improve a bit. Still, it’s a hidden gem!

absolute hidden gem of a sushi bar

Best sushi in town without a doubt. It's a no thrills place but no issue there as the sushi is fresh, wonderful and very reasonably priced. Great for a quick pit stop too. I would definitely recommend.

Visited with a friend for lunch. Nice and quiet, good catch up with friends. Quality food and friendly staff. Will go back again soon. Thank you!

Found this cute Japanese grocery/ sushi place in Finchley! It got plenty of Japanese seasonings and snacks! The sushi is freshly made in front of you in the sushi bar🤎

The best sushi and the best sushi chefs

Sushi is delicious and reasonably priced. Quick service.

Food is delicious. Sushi is always fresh. Staff are friendly. All round great local place with regular customers for eat in and takeaway.

Great sushi and friendly atmosphere

The best sushi 🍣 in town. Never a disappointing experience. Fresh fish. Highest grade sashimi.

Fresh Sushi and Sashimi. Very nice service.

Food was amazing, stumbled on this place by chance and it did not disappoint. It had a real community vibe with most of the customers knowing staff.

Great place, fresh sushi, really nice workers!

Food very good and fresh - good customer service

Excellent service as always! My favorite branch defo

Best sushi place in London. We ordered party platter with tune and it was the best ever. Thank you Atariya ❤️

Best Shushi in town, a precious Gem. Well done chef. I recommend all who love Sushi and Sashimi this is the place you all should try.

The best, cleanest, freshest, highest quality we have enjoyed anywhere in the world (haven't visited Japan yet). Our office DOR Architects is about 10minutes walk from here and we get full sushi sets at least once a week.

Not as good as it is to be, quite awful and over priced for tiny rolls. They also gave my a dry crab roll that was so tiny. I was shocked. Go somewhere else plenty other places.

The best traditional Japanese sushi in town. Great chef and friendly staff. Thank you Atariya

Absolutely love the sushi Takeaway, some of the best takeaways I've had in a long time!

Good selection of Japanese products and most importantly they have a range of freshly made Sushi rolls.

No pics as ate it all so quick :) Best sushi In the area...did a quick shop for seaweed and sauces while they made my order fresh...really recommend!

Friendly staff, food is outstanding!

Best sushi in the entire universe

The sushi was so fresh, probably the best sushi i have tried in London.

Sashimi consisted of thin, irregular pieces hacked roughly off a salmon that didn't taste too fresh. Inside out rolls falling apart. We used to get takeaways from here regularly but sadly we'll be moving on unless we hear they get better qualified and trained staff. Not what it was.

Super, super fresh fish, fast service. Place is a supermarket with a tiny sitting area. It’s not fancy but then again that’s the charm of the place.

This is one of the best sushi place in London. We have been in for lunch very quiet and the chef is kind and super expert about Japanese kitchen. We have had sushi rolls and sashimi and the details of the flavours and the freshness of the ingredients it's unbelievable . Must try the delicious chef special Rainbow as is the most comfy food I ever tried! We recommend it as the best Japanese sushi in Golders Green.

Food is okay, but they kept missing stuff from the orders and seemed irritated when we called. I work near by but will not be going back here.

The miso soup paste is cheap. Their staff are so welcoming ☺️ Yamaka Sushi Kit is around £4 which is amazing for 2 people. So cheap and perfect for date night.

Fantastic super-fresh, hand made sushi right in front of your eyes. Friendly service and great value. 10/10 highly recommended Their maki and sashimi are amazing and they also have a freezer with loads of products like Mochi and gyozas.

Wonderful staff, Lily was most helpful and informative 👍 until the other shop is fully renovated I'll be coming here 😀

Rice is too hard and prawns are small. Not worth a money, they used to be very friendly but now I’ve ordered over the telephone and they made a mistake with my order twice. The rice should be cooked in regular bases - not make on the morning and left so they become hard and tasteless. Hardly any vinegar in rice. This is not sushi rice. Just rolled rice ball. It shows that the chef is not thought how to make proper sushi. Never buy again.

Richmond Atariya Japanese supermarket was once a pride to own but not now they are the worst. Those indian staffs need to be train before handling raw fish and sushi. Absolutely rubbish. I won't be putting my foot there anymore. Avoid if I were you.

One of the best sushi bars in London!

Lovely sushi, fresh and tasty. Great shop as well with Japanese products. There is a great selection of ingredients for Japanese cooking.

Someone told me this was the best sushi in town and was not joking. Love the sushi here, only thing is they dont open late. But we tried twice and always amazing.

Not bad, ate at table in shop for t/away prices. Lovely fresh fish in sashimi. Will use again.

We are used to the North Finchley Atariya, which seems better stocked, but was closed yesterday (hopefully not forever). We got some good sashimi here for making sushi rolls at home. There is a basic selection of Japanese food here to choose from.

Perfect place for a sushi Fresh fish

I've actually been going here for years in and off, and it's changed a few times, including being out of commission for a couple of years until comparatively recently. The business model has changed so it's predominantly takeaway, and they get *very* busy doing this. Having said that, I went in in the early evening this evening and stood there for ten minutes, and was flatly ignored. Not made to wait; ignored. The chefs pretended not to see me, and the server kept her back to me almost the entire time, while I waited at the door to ask about the possibility of service. Eventually I took the hint and just left. Food -wise, the quality is perhaps a bit less good than it used to be (although very good), and ambience -wise, the place is a mess now when it used to be very clean and welcoming, because they prioritise take away service. I have no idea if they are currently doing sit-in dining, because, as I say, they found it more convenient to simply pretend I wasn't there and deal with the four tickets they had in front of them than to ask me to wait, or simply say they weren't taking orders. It was bizarre. There was someone else in front of me and they seemed to ignore him too. They do so much delivery business locally that they really don't need your money, and it shows in how they do business. Or, in this case, how they simply don't when it suits them.

Usually excellent, but there must be a new chef as the quality has unfortunately plummeted. Rice starchy and mushy, sushi poorly presented and falling apart, and fish slices small. Hopefully the old chefs return soon...

Delivered lower grade tuna than paid for. Pick up often not ready for pick up time with different clients complaining every week . Staff do not care. Chef with face mask not covering mouth and nose during Tier 4 of pandemic .

Ordered as a special anniversary treat as we didn’t want to venture out to restaurants just yet. The food was delivered by Deliveroo on time and with care. All I had to do was plate it up. It was delicious, beautifully presented and the entire family was impressed. Thanks so much for helping make a memorable evening! Highly recommended!

Tried all the sushi restaurants in Finchley at least once. Liked my take-away from Atari-Ya the best. They charge less for what seems to me better quality. Fatty Tuna well worth trying.

Sushi perfecto. He estado aquí muchas veces y nunca ha sido menos que perfecto. El sushi siempre es excepcional y los domingos, la comida caliente es deliciosa. Es una buena relación calidad-precio y está disponible con un gran servicio. Recomendaría al 100% que comiera aquí para una comida rápida local con familiares o amigos. Puede ser muy ocupado por la noche, así que recomiendo reservar con antelación.

I really don’t see how this supermarket can make any claims or pretensions to being a restaurant. This is a Japanese supermarket with a sushi counter. The food is served in takeaway plastic trays. Tap water is served in a polystyrene cup. As is the miso soup - horrible . And when I asked for low sodium soy sauce they told me I had to buy a 250ml bottle - and then I can keep with with all the others.The food was adequate. The service poor. The ambience like eating in the middle of LIDL. In fact having the eat off the plastic trays is the same as the sushi counter/take away in Sainsbury’s.

Excellent food and lovely service. The place was very busy and there are very few seats but the fresh sushi was incredible. I would recommend getting the sea bass and the eel, both were delicious!

My husband has always been a loyal fan of the budget Japanese chain Eat Tokyo and he can hardly find another one comparable in terms of value for money. With American Express' Shop Small campaign, we decided to try this out with the £13 lunch set. To our surprise, the salmon sashimi and sushi are very fresh and succulent. The small crab salad appetiser is impressive too. My husband even said we can go Eat Tokyo & Atariya alternatively!P.S. The lunch set is available on weekend too

I always went to the one in North Finchley branch, which is excellent so I wanted to try this place out. However, when I asked if they sold fish cakes the cashier proceeded to laugh from her lack of knowledge in Japanese food and it made me feel very uncomfortable. Then when I wanted to pay they ignored me and did their own thing until one of the sushi chefs noticed and told someone to help me, even though there was more than 8 staff in the store and 3 of them not making sushi's, maybe its a discrimination of age because a man who came in with me was greeted and helped by a staff whilst the other two did nothing. As someone working in customer service, this was not the way, it's disappointing because their sushi's are very delicious.so I'm going to stick to the North Finchley branch thanks!

Hace un par de semanas, mi hijo me sorprendió al llevar a casa un verdadero festín de comida japonesa que compró en este restaurante, que ofrece un maravilloso servicio de comida para llevar.El pescado estaba maravillosamente fresco, y cada pieza de sushi y sashimi estaba deliciosa.La comida japonesa de esta calidad nunca es barata, pero es más barata que muchos restaurantes japoneses y vale cada centavo.Hay un bar en el que se puede comer, y ver la comida preparada por expertos.Definitivamente obtendría comida de allí otra vez.es accesible para sillas de ruedas

They are also wholesalers of top quality Sushi fish. Totally fresh. Good choice -take out or eat in. Friendly, good selection of other Japanese goods.

One the best spot to get sushi in london, really fresh fish and generous cuts. A perfect small sushi chain if you fancy some take away!

Atari-ya is a sushi factory; busy, quick, delicious. What’s not to like? Phone ahead, order with a specific pick up time - and voila. A small supermarket to top up on bits and pieces of you like. Do ore order otherwise you may end up waiting ages as it is busy!

The sushi here is consistently perfect. It really is just fantastic and I have never made any complaints. Sometimes the manager is a bit annnoying when you ask for more ginger but otherwise I have no complaints

We love Atari ya. A firm favourite. Always fresh and always tasty. Interesting menu additions regularly to keep it interesting. Highly recommend for a casual eat in or delicious take away.

Solíamos amar a Atari ya y siempre les pedíamos. De alguna manera, después de su reciente remodelación, la calidad se fue por el desagüe. Pedimos unas cuantas veces más ya que no podíamos creer que la calidad fuera TAN mala, pensamos que podría ser un día de descanso.

Solía ser un favorito de todos los tiempos. Luego te vas a dejar su £400 libras y bufanda de hermes rápidamente para conseguir, no quieren escuchar, buscar en las cámaras o ayudar de cualquier manera. Es perderse fuera de nuestro el restaurante. Espero que el director goza de la bufanda no regresaré, demasiado caro. Cuidado con carteras, teléfonos, bolsas, etc. en estos restaurantes que desaparece y el personal parecía querer salir rápido. Comida 4 pensamiento

Fresh and tasty sushi. Ticks all of the boxes and a great place to pre order take aways. Bit too heavy on plastic and waste unfortunately.

Really good value for money! Sushi is fresh and delicious. I reckon you would have to pay at least twice to eat like this in a more popular location. Service is good not the best but the sushi is fab!

El sushi es excelente ya un precio razonable, sin embargo, no puedo darle más de 2 estrellas debido a la cantidad de plástico desperdiciado. ¿Por qué servir sopa de miso, sushi y alimentos calientes en recipientes de plástico cuando se come? Seguramente debe ser más económico (¡y mucho más sostenible!) Servirlo en platos regulares (solían hacer esto ...)

フィンチリーのハイロード沿いにあります。大きく鮮魚、とかかれています。日本の食材はほぼ1.5倍から2倍弱で売られています。刺身は大トロもおいてあります。でも高いです。肉の薄切りはスーパーでは売っていないので、冷凍ですが便利です。魚もさばいてくれるそうです。日本語対応ですので、安心して買い物ができます。店の外には

Went to buy delicious freshly made sushi here.It was superb and you can also buy oriental groceries there.Very helpful staff and a clean shop.

El sushi es decente y el servicio de atención al cliente es muy pobre. He comprado 5 bandejas en las últimas semanas y han referido el establecimiento de vecinos y amigos. Recientemente me pidio tener un recipiente pequeño para empacar los restos de la bandeja para mi almuerzo (son bastante grandes). La mujer en el mostrador dijo que no sabia y me gritó para su colega (básicamente en mi oído). Una mujer vino y no darme un contenedor simple- es una pequeña falta de gesto pero habla volúmenes para el servicio al cliente. Tal vez deberían haber cuidado mejor para sus mejores clientes.

Encontré este japonés sushi bar/supermercado mientras viajábamos en N Circ (Henly's Corner) parado para algunos sushi para llevar, recién hechos, buena calidad y buen precio. También es útil para otros ingredientes de cocina japonesa.

Saw this place and know the company are suppliers of fish to the big restaurants but didn't know they had a place themselves. Fresh fish great service what's not to love. No fancy frills just good amazing food 10/10.

You see, now I want to write one word here Banging, if you like sushi you'll love this place, four chef prep your sushi in front of you at the bar, you can shop a little for oriental ingredients, imported sake, also cold blue sake.

いろいろな種類の鮮魚を取り扱っていて、生魚が食べたいときはとても重宝しています。こじんまりとしていますが、日本のものでほしいものは大体そろいます。

Me encanta el sushi de aquí, ojalá no más ensaladas, pero el sushi es estupendo, el personal es amable y de calidad cuando estaba embarazada me avisaron de lo que estaba congelado y seguro para comer. A mi bebé le encanta su sushi demasiado y siempre cortar la rollos maki en piezas más pequeñas para ella. Sin duda lo recomiendo para llevar almuerzo rápido o si tienes tiempo para comer en el bar no es apropiado si quieres un largo extrae el almuerzo.

Comida para llevar para mí simplemente no funciona ni su forma más simple como siempre quedo decepcionado. Los ansiosos de siempre es mejor que el gusto.

Best sushi around. Cheaper than most and much better quality. We make a monthly pilgrimage from Milton Keynes as there is nothing in our area that even comes close.

This food shop was located very close to our hotel. This is quite convenient. Food quality was better than it looks from outside. Sushi +small choice of other dishes.Shops are Japanese daily usage goods. I got some snacks and spices. I am more than happy. I wish there is a similar type of shop in my town as well.ホテルから徒歩圏内のとても便利な場所にあったので、チェックインする前に立ち寄って遅めの昼食をとりました。

every morsel delicious, sushi made fresh as you wait, great innvoation for take away are the hot cabinets with the most delicious chicken yakitori , wonderful gyoza I could go on forever...to be honest spoilt for choice, so perfect excuse for having to visit again and again in fact ad infinitum

私はちらし寿司、友達は握りを食べました。イギリスの友達は美味しいと言っていましたが、日本人の私からみたら米がいまいちでした。暖かいし。

Fresh, always reliable and made with care.We have been ordering for ten years and have never had a bad round of sushi. They now also have a loyalty card

Eat here all the time Foods greatMuch cheaper than other sushi spots Food is always spot onFood always made fresh but they so some boxed sushi which I normally get and they are always great

I love the idea of popping in for a few Japanese groceries and grabbing a quick snack. No fuss, just the counter and the fish and little in-between. As it should be.

My local sushi place, which I have been going there for years! Its one of North London's hidden gems! Amazing sushi/sashimi, which are all displayed & prepared in front of you at a very reasonable price. The staff are all polite and very helpful! In my opinion, as it can get really busy, it's probably best to book a table a day in advance!

Magnificent sushi - superb fish and always fresh and delicious. Have been eating in and getting takeaway for 7 or 8 years and always excellent. Don't be fooled by the ordinary look of the place the food is really really good. Very good value for money.

There is no shortage of sushi restaurants in London but despite many visits to Nobu, Roka and others this remains my favourite for great fresh food, excellent service, authenticity and value for money

A sushi bar in a supermarket. Very fresh and extremely well prepared. Friendly staff. Limited size, only the bar and 2x tables. It can be a good idea to reserve a seat by phone at busy weekend lunch times. Not open after 7pm. Otherwise brilliant. Authentic. This is where the food does the talking not the style of the place.

Being a vegetarian, sushi options are somewhat limited. But I must say, the veg sushi options here were superb! Loved the taste, and the price :) Very friendly little place. You can eat in or take away which I normally do now. Would highly recommend.

within 400 meters of my front doorwe have been using Atari-Ya for many many years nowIts a Japanese supermarket with a little sushi bar and take out service.They are part of a bigger firm and the main shop is a mile or so away in Finchley where they have a great fish counterwe get take out sushi from here once or twice a weekits fairly authentic (but like all sushi places in the UK the rice isn't properly seasoned) and the fish is always very goodits about mid range price wise for sushi but higher than that for qualitywell worth a visit

こちらはレストランというよりも、商店の中に併設された小さなカウンターありの食べ処といった感じでしょうか。。小さな店内を、小さなスーパーと食べるところに分けているので、なんだか雰囲気はパッとしません。。カウンターに数席、小さなハイテーブルが一つほどのスペース。お寿司のネタの味はそれなりによくおいしくは頂けました。カウンター前で握ってくれる方が、パートのような若い女性だったのに、すこし違和感を感じましたが。。あがり（お茶）を頼んだら有料でした。。。イギリスなのでこんなものか、、と思うようにしました。。気軽に食べに行けないお寿司なので、一応美味しかったらOKです。。

they make sushi in front of you ,there is not much chair to seat but you can order and collect it. There is take away but no delivery .it looks like a supermarket and you can buy some special Japanese items.the price for 6 pieces of sushi is around 4 pounds.Here is not open after 7:30 pm.
