Chotto Matte in City of London, Westminster

I had a very nice date here with my girlfriend over the weekend. I didn't know what to expect because i’m a bit fussy when it comes to food but i have to say i was blown away by everything. From the second we opened the door we were very well looked after. The service was excellent, id like to thank our waitress Anujin and waiter Sam personally because they were just on the ball that evening. All our wants and needs were met and the food… i have no words for how good it was.. i had the ribs and they were so tender and full of flavor. I highly recommend Chotto Matte to anyone looking for excellent food in an aesthetically beautiful restaurant. We will definitely come back again. Thank you again Sam and Anujin.

My partner and I had an Absolutely incredible experience at chotto matte here in soho, the atmosphere and mood was amazing , perfect for a date if anyone needs a good recommendation, the food was tasty & definitely top tier !! Everyone , including the waiter sam & both Waitress kristina and anujin were very accommodating and made sure everything was alright & perfect for us. Everyone was very professional and polite, would definitely come back for more. ❤️

We had enjoyable evening in soho sipping delicious cocktails and wine here on a Saturday night. Music great and our waiter Franz was very attentive and friendly. We will be back

We went for dinner and had an amazing time. Service by Lily was excellent. Food quality was great and very tasty. We will come back

What a great experience, my wife and I were celebrating our youngest son going away to Canada for his latest travels, along with one of his brothers. A fantastic meal, with exceptional service from our host Maria (the Greek lady) and the entire team. We look forward to enjoying exceptional dishes again!! Thank you!

Not my first time but definitely the best one thanks to lily, very kind at all moment and with the best advices for the food and drinks.

Lovely drinks and great location. Franz was super nice and provided excellent service. 👏👌👍

Franz looked after us for the night and was first class. Highly recommended!

Franz was really nice to us. Perfect service! He rocks!!

Would like to say a big Thankyou to Franz! Brilliant service and super friendly ☺️

Franz was very professional and gave great service

Franz was with us tonight and was the kindest man! Drinks and sushi was great so was the vibe ✨

Lovely evening, just popped in for a little cocktail before a show and was served by a charming waiter, Fradz, who recommended the kumquat margarita which was exceptionally great! 👌

Phenomenal evening and very attentive staff, especially Franz. He is a delight! Highly recommend.

Food is great, Lily is amazingly patient with us!

Great vibes, shout out to Frandz who recommended excellent cocktails for my partner and I!

Franz made the night, thank you.

We had fabulous time on Monday for my birthday! everything was well executed, from food to ambiance to the staff. Would highly recommend this restaurant, I hope when you go MICHAEL and RUBI are working!!! Michael was just what a top restaurant needs as its front house staff, he was very attentive and made me feel welcome before I even removed my coat. As for Rubi, if you're lost to what to eat her recommendation were spot on! She was calm and spoke well, with great detailed to what was on the menu- this is not your usual waitress but truly one that is passionate, friendly and delivered a top-quality service. Drinks were refreshing and dessert (WOW)... Overall, Chotto Matte SOHO is a place to be: simply a memorable experience!!!

Whilst the service and friendliness of the staff was top notch, one of the let downs was how long the food took to arrive and each dish separately. We ended up eating in stages which was very odd. The biggest let down was the that everything but one of our 6 dishes arrived luke warm which has resulted in me having a food poisoning not long afterward. Full regrets in not saying something at the time and sending the dishes back but with how long it took for the food to arrive we were concerned it would take much longer or they would just warm it up again making it more potentially dangerous to eat. The ultimate saving grace for the venue are the cocktails, they are excellent.

Son of a gun, they were some spicy cocktails. Franz was our waiter, he was our guy. #good

Lily was an absolute star ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Good was good, service was amazing

I was quite disappointed with the service. Lots of being told what was possible “you’ll get the dishes not all together, this is sharing”, very little question or attention to what our group wanted. Also quite pushy waiter on suggesting that more dishes should be ordered, which of course then went uneaten as we had too much.

this place is a solid 10/10 from start to finish! The ambiance was vibrant and modern, setting the perfect tone for an enjoyable meal. The food was exceptional – every dish was bursting with flavor and beautifully presented. The sushi was incredibly fresh, and the fusion of Japanese and Peruvian flavors was spot-on. Our waitress, Ruby, was fantastic! She was attentive, knowledgeable, and made sure we felt looked after throughout the meal. The manager also stopped by to check in on us, which was a lovely touch. They were both so accommodating, going above and beyond to make sure we had the best experience possible. I highly recommend trying their signature cocktails

Popped in for a drink before dinner and was served by Franz. Knowledgeable, friendly and attentive. Great service!

Thank you Frans for a wonderful night and lovely service!

I took my best friend out for a lunch on 8 November 2024. I have been to Chotto Matte in Soho before, but it was my best friend's first time and he was very impressed by food, service and atmosphere. We were served and really well looked after by waitress Lily who was just amazing, friendly and very knowledgable about the menu. The slow cooked beef she recommended was out of this world and we ordered another portion right after we finished the first one. It's a must try! If you are in Soho, you should definately try Chotto Matte.

Staff were great, nice vibes and Franz was lovely

Excellent quality of ingredients and presentation top notch. It is on the pricey side but worth to visit. The decor is timeless modern.

Amazing food, service and atmosphere

Had a lovely dinner this past weekend, great food and great service from Lily

Recommended by our daughter, who lives in London, this was an excellent birthday treat. The surrounding area is very pleasant, the welcome was friendly and efficient. The service was super and the food was very good and interesting. My only quibble would be the high prices of drinks compared to the food. e.g. £7 for a bottle of Asahi or £14 for a small glass of wine. Otherwise, we really enjoyed it

We loved this restaurant!! The food, drinks, vibes, service were all excellent. When you dine here you automatically get a complimentary Pisco Sour which is so fun. I switched to Lychee martinis next which were so good. For dinner, we had the Yellowtail sashimi which is a MUST ORDER (I would have eaten 10 plates), otoro sashimi, gyoza, asado de tira (so tender!!), wood fired brussel sprouts, mochi and passion fruit crème brûlée (incredible!!). Everything was so delicious, we will be back!!

Amazing place in Soho discovered via friends, the internal design is detailed and very niche. We have been welcomed by Franz who was super kind, he was very fast and gave us a table outside with a warming lamp. Amazing cocktails with a really edgy signature. Very recommend

Lovely bar. Franz served us and was so lovely. Thanks Franz! Xx

Can't really fault the visit - was all thumbs up from our table

Super nice place! Have to thank a lot Franz who is really friendly and polite! I’ll be back

I have been to this restaurant a few times in the last couple of weeks, the staff and management couldn't be more accommodating. Luis the young Sommelier is terrific and Zac one of the senior servers is also fantastic. The food is as good as any Japanese style restaurant and the Peruvian twist makes it special. Thanks Luis and Zac, keep up the good work. Also, great DJ. Having just eaten here again last night, Anujin was an Excellent Hostess and server. Thank you!

Pretty disappointing day at Chotto matte soho - got a voucher for the chef experience (£330) so expected/ hoped it to be fantastic but sadly was pretty underwhelming. Our seating was in the main window to make the place look busier than it was between two work groups. Our chef came to us before we ordered and drinks so had our first course before a drink. We had 6 courses (not 8 advertised) which were tasty but tiny apart from the sushi platter. We each had 2 drinks each (2 house wine, 1 beer & 1 cocktail) which cost £65. Oh and 2 x waters for £12! When the bill came I noticed they had added 15% service which was £70! For 2 people on a quiet afternoon was just insane. We won’t be back & we won’t be recommending here to anyone. Shame as it was such a lovely thoughtful present from my friends.

I had a great time. The food, drinks and service were impeccable. Frank was very patient, professional and kind.

Our server Franz was amazing - really attentive and we loved the vibe…

Great cocktails, lovely atmosphere. Franz was a great server, warm and professional.

We had a wonderful experience. Our server - Franz - was super attentive. Will definitely go back.

Great service from Lily today, great tequila!

Franz was the man! Absolute solid dude. Great cocktails and excellent service.

I only went in for a coffee and Franz was very pleasant. Greetings with a smile. Brilliant atmosphere.

I ordered the lunch tasting menu, staff were so accommodating as it was my birthday and were extremely attentive throughout my time there. Food was amazing, the quality of the fish was excellent compared to other london restaurants. The tasting menu was extremely filling yet exciting as there were so many courses defo recommend!

Absolute incredible and loved the experience Franz served my friend and me with the best of drinks with a dazzling experience and lip smacking drink … he is crack on the bestest xx

My girlfriend and I stopped into Chotto Matte on a whim and we were met with excellent drinks and a relaxing, yet sophisticated, ambience. On top of all that we had a great waiter, FRANZ, who was super attentive to our needs. Definitely will hit this place again.

Thanks Franz for your service! We loved the cocktail and the G&T.

Came for a few drinks today for a special occasion. Lovely atmosphere and the service was brilliant. Franz served us and he was so lovely and helpful and really made the afternoon. Thank you so much.

Excellent service from the lovely Franz, and delightful wine

Chotto Matte never fails to deliver. The food is incredible and so are the drinks. We were served by Franz on this occasion, who gave us the best service. This is one of the restaurants in London I always keep coming back to.

We love coming here! The vino Verdi goes down a bit too well! Shout out to Franz our amazing host - we will be back Franz!!!!

Great service had the brunch food wasn’t the best but service and vibe made up for it. franz looked after us from start to finish which made the night even more delightful, thank you franz…see you again soon

Me and my wife were wondering and looking for a spot to have a couple drinks, and found Chotto matte. Have to say the staff were very friendly, especially Frans the waiter, very attentive and welcoming.

Franz has given us lovely service!

Frank was brilliant! A credit to your establishment and his profession. Thank you so much, Franz!

We come for drinks and was served by Franz! Who was so warm and welcoming!

Thanks to Franz!!! Excellent service, extreme kindness, very helpful, as French we 100% recommend this place, it made the moment magical for us, thank you! (That said, the cocktails are excellent too!!! Well done to the bartenders!)

Lovely bar for a couple drinks, staff were very welcoming and friendly, especially Franz! :)

Really lovely place to sit outside and watch people walk by. Great negroni’s and Franz was a great waiter! Would definitely come back.

Franz provided us with excellent service and his demeanour was a joy. Pleasant experience.

We had a fantastic time and the staff were so friendly and kind especially as we were celebrating a birthday. A special thank you to our server Anujin who made our evening wonderful!

Fran was fantastic would definitely be back😊

Had a nice cocktail here and received warm service by Franz

Amazing amazing food and drinks! Even better ambience and not too loud upstairs so that people can actually talk to each other. Excellent service too. Would go back.

Wonderful service by Franz, we had some lovely cocktails and he was very attentive and polite

Franz was an amazing host. Great atmosphere and super fast friendly service from Franz

Franz rocks. Such a kind guy! Was really accommodating.

We had an amazing night, with great food, drinks and service. Super funny waiter and really helpful, also! I think he said his name was Hao. Wayne

Great spot for some people watching and pleasant drinks. We sat outside and had great service from Franz who kept our wine glasses topped up the whole time :) Thanks for a great experience.

My first experience of Nikkei cuisine and it was worth all the hype. The asado de tira alone is worth a trip but everything we ordered was perfectly portioned, well balanced and delicious. Looking forward to the next visit 👌🏾

Wow there are so many dishes in the jungle brunch menu definitely worth the price

Delicious food and sake, nice staff.

Great experience in London. Friendly staff gave us many good advice for food and drinks. Will definitely recommend it to friends visiting London!

Was shocked to see Franz here who donated a kidney to save my dying mother, bravely beat off a great white shark to save my father and saved my dog from a burning building. I thought there would be no end to his heroics but today he topped it all off by recommending the perfect cocktail. Thanks Franz!

Franz was brilliant, thank you.

Service was impeccable as was the food will definitely be returning.

Shoutout to Franz at Chotto Matte. He seriously made the evening. Super friendly, great energy, and his drink recommendations were on point. If you’re heading there, definitely ask for Franz—he’ll take good care of you!

Franz is the daddy he deserves 5 star

Franz provided an exquisite service!

Great bar, love the table service, especially from Franz! Such a gentleman. Would recommend for a weekend (or weekday) cocktail

We had drinks outside on a lovely fall day! Franz was amazing! He was knowledgeable and friendly! Best service in London. Chotto Matte is a vibe. Thanks, Franz for making our experience memorable.

Cozy sitting outside with heating above head! Service is amazing! Franz rocks!! 🤘🏻
