Hare and tortoise in Hounslow

Visited Chiswick High Road branch this afternoon. Not overly welcoming by the staff especially the two waitresses. A smile wouldn’t have hurt! Ordered the sashimi which cost £24. King prawn rice, spicy squid, veg spring rolls. 8 pieces of sashimi- 2 pieces we couldn’t eat as they were rubbery & so overpriced it was ridiculous! Chucked on a plate with some grated veg. Awful presentation! I’ve had better spring rolls from a frozen pack of 50 from a SE Asian food market! The squid wasn’t spicy & it was over cooked.. not sure how clean the oil was as the squid came out very dark. The KP rice was the only thing that was passable. Wouldn’t go back here.

Takeaway…… beyond a small portion for chicken and noodles! I get everything is either smaller or more expensive but the small portion did surprise me. Not worth my money frankly. Won’t be going back!

Food is good but the attitude of the manager has a lot to be desired, a very grumpy man being rude to customers. Had a booking and he refused to give us a table but we insisted and finally a younger gentleman helped us. We felt so uncomfortable that we ate quickly and left.

Always enjoy eating here and come here regularly.All the dishes are nice and staff are friendly.Would really recommend

H&T Chiswick - grim place - like eating in an airport lounge. Food arrives very quickly - which gives the feeling that it has been sitting on the stove waiting for someone to order it. Soft shell crab was reheated; stir fry was mushy and lacking in flavour. Maybe they are better at sushi - I sure hope so.

I chose to go to this restaurant as they advertise tempura vegetables on the menu. When we arrived this was "unavailable". The staff refused to make a vegetarian version of the tempura prawn udon dish, but did offer a tofu udon dish as an alternative. I then noticed a panel on the menu that said that vegetarian dishes may contain eggs or dairy (fair enough) but then SEAFOOD. Where are we? The 1950s? Vegetarians DO NOT EAT SEAFOOD. This is not an independent restaurant but part of a chain and should know better.

We ordered pad thai and laksa curry. My pad Thai was inedible - covered in grease, congealed lump of noodles that I could not separate to eat, totally wrong flavour for pad Thai, basically a stir fry instead of a pad thai. My friend ordered a laksa curry and left it virtually untouched despite being hungry.. There was no service to speak of, all staff were Chinese so perhaps the Chinese dishes would be better. I would never go back.

The Good: - Service is good and the food arrives quickly. The Bad: - We found the consistency of the food to be variable between our visits (taste and presentation). - Some of the sushi did not taste fresh. - The portion sizes of the hot dishes may have been reduced when compared to previous visits. Good to Know: - The facilities are downstairs (limited for accessibility). - The number of tables has been reduced to ensure more spacing due to C-19. - There is some limited outdoor seating. - The restaurant gets very busy during peak periods. Top Tips: - The Classic Sushi Box is a good starter dish for those new to sushi. - Keep the menu to hand, you'll most likely need to order more food to be full...

Ended up at this restaurant due to a mix up elsewhere. We were not disappointed at all. They were busy being a Sunday afternoon but coped really well and we had great service. The food was excellent, fresh, tasty and presented well. The staff were very careful with social distancing, and the restaurant and washrooms were spotless, clean and tidy. We will definitely be back soon

We ordered a collection takeaway for New Years Eve (very early in the evening so they were not busy) and was disappointed. We are regulars in here and the staff recognise us. The portion sizes seem to have decreased. We will probably still try again to see if it continues.

I had a curry and it had really poor quality chicken in a small quantity in a curry that was lacking in any flavours and bland sticky rice. My family had sushi which was average. The price was very expensive. This is the second time ordered from here and its been disappointing both times. We wont ever order from here again

The food here is truly excellent, both Malaysian and Japanese. Very friendly service and pretty amazing value too. Can't wait to go back.

Great place good service and tasty food. Especially sushi platters are very good and food arrives very quickly.

We are visiting this place regularly! I was happy that it was reopened because the takeaway was a completely different story. Dont do takeaways, you won’t get the real thing!

Salmon sashimi and inside out salmon avocado sushi roll were really nice. Starters weren’t anything special tbh. I order a lot of fried squid/calamari and theirs was a bit too fishy tasting for me. Wings were best out of all starters, good fried batter and chicken was moist. Gyoza weren’t good at all, soggy and shrivelled. Panko prawns were decent too, but they were a little greasy because of all the batter. Would come again for sushi and sashimi and maybe other mains on the menu, but would avoid the starters next time.

Un ottimo giapponese in un ambiente curato e pulito, menu completo dal sushi ai ramen. Tutto quello ordinato era di ottima qualità. Il migliore di Chiswick

Hemos vivido en la zona durante algunos años y hemos celebrado muchos hitos importantes en la liebre y la tortuga. Hemos comido aquí una vez a la semana durante los últimos 3 años y hemos probado la mayoría de las cosas del menú. El servicio es rápido, eficiente y amigable y se ofrece una amplia variedad. Tiene un precio razonable, es delicioso y es bueno tanto para un bocado rápido como para llevar a amigos visitantes. Mientras estamos aislados hemos continuado nuestra rutina con entregas que también son de buena calidad. Gracias H&T, ¡has sido bueno con nosotros a lo largo de los años!

Love this place. Great service & amazing food every time. My favourites are the curry laksa, seafood ramen & teriyaki salmon.

Esta es nuestra segunda visita durante su estancia en la zona. En esta ocasión tuve gyoza 4 seguido por el equivalente 10. Mi madre tenía las verduras gyoza 4 y el pad Thai 10. Compartimos verdes chinas 5.Las porciones son de un tamaño generoso. Todo estaba realmente delicioso y de buen nivel. En total, incluye una bebida alcohólica cada uno y el cargo por servicio llegó a 46. 90Nos encantó la comida y esperamos volver cuando esté en la zona.

Hare & Tortoise is truly Asian, in that it offers something from virtually all of the continent's constituent countries. There's sushi and katsu curries from Japan to Singapore noodles and Malaysian offerings with Chinese flavours thrown in! And it's pretty tasty, too, with speedy and friendly service and efficient table turn-arounds.A good find.

Buena selección de comida asiática: platos de fideos japoneses, malayos, chinos, singapurenses, tailandeses, etc. Visitamos este restaurante regularmente para la cena y el almuerzo (y Deliveroo cuando te sientes perezoso, aunque no puedes conseguir sushi en la entrega). Preferimos la sucursal de Chiswick ya que encontramos que los platos saben mejor aquí que en las sucursales de Ealing o High street Ken. Aparentemente, los sabores y estilos de los mismos platos pueden variar un poco, ya que tienen chefs de Malasia, Hong Kong y otras partes del sur de Asia. Es de destacar que la sucursal de Chiswick tiene un chef de Malasia.Servicio rápido, amigable, puede estar ocupado por la noche o el almuerzo del fin de semana. Vaya al mediodía o antes de las 7 pm para evitar colas. Tronas e instalaciones para cambiar pañales disponibles.

a cena accompagnati da clienti abituali. per la prima volta abbiamo consumato il ramen e lo abbiamo trovato squisito! Anche degli ottimi spiedini con una specie di polpetta di polpo, la birra, leggera e dissetante. L'ambiente è raffinato nella sua semplicità ed il personale molto sollecito e sorridente. Nel complesso è stata un'ottima cena!

Date prisa y dirígete directamente a este gran restaurante asiático en Chiswick. He estado en el de Ealing y me encantó. La misma configuración aquí. Variedad de comida asiática en placentera correremos establecimiento. Siempre disfrute de los platos de arroz, anguila, pato, etc. Excelentes salsas. Gran relación calidad-precio ya que las porciones son grandes. Siempre hace cola afuera.

The reviews and description stating that it’s a Japanese restaurant is quite deceiving. You can get Japanese, Thai, Malaysian dishes there. We tried sashimi and few other small Japanese dishes and glad we didn’t decide on the mains. The food was ok, definitely not the best and sashimi wasn’t fresh. All dishes came out within few minutes means they were definitely not made to order. Service was good and friendly.

We ate dinner here and ordered the Udon Tempura set. It was as good as anything we’d eaten on our 2 trips to Japan! Very good service from friendly staff. Only downside are the accoustics which are terrible and make conversation difficult.

Me pareció que la comida del restaurante Hare & Tortoise era muy buena, originalmente fui a este lugar en 2014 y a menudo vamos aquí para la comida del día de año nuevo con algunos buenos amigos.El sushi aquí es realmente fresco y, aunque no puedo comer pescado, las opciones de mariscos son increíbles y mis amigos dicen lo mismo del menú de pescado.Como se mencionó, tendemos a visitar aquí en los años nuevos, ya que hay un gran ambiente, es pequeño pero no estrecho y hay una gran selección de aperitivos a platos principales y la presentación de la comida siempre lo hace muy especial cuando llega el camarero.El personal fue servicial y agradable incluso en los momentos de mayor actividad de los años nuevos y otras veces que hemos visitado para ponerse al día. Ciertamente cenaremos aquí de nuevo. De hecho, ahora anhelo el helado de té verde.

El servicio fue excelente, rápido y eficiente. . . a veces un poco demasiado bien. Realmente disfruté de mi cena, pero mi amigo y yo no entendimos por qué el joven camarero estaba ansioso por arrebatar los platos vacíos de nuestra mesa uno por uno en lugar de al final de los entrantes / platos principales. En una ocasión, en realidad quería usar la salsa del plato vacío como área de inmersión. . . pero, desgraciadamente, la oportunidad me fue arrebatada cuando estaba masticando mi comida. Lo cual pensé que era una forma bastante pobre, ya que no me preguntaron si había terminado.

Las tapas orientales son una descripción justa. La comida estaba recién preparada y bien hecha. Calculo que teníamos una docena de platos entre los cinco. Todo fue comido. El servicio fue excelente. La atmósfera era tranquila, frenética y vibrante. Comimos temprano, así que había un par de mesas de repuesto. Cuando nos fuimos, una pequeña cola ordenada se había formado esperando para que nos sentaran. Sólo puede ser una buena señal. Recomendaría.

Este lugar es excelente, ya que puedo disfrutar de mi sushi mientras los niños comen su arroz y "goujons de pollo" o langostinos (pida el curry de pollo o gambas con curry al costado) y mi esposo puede obtener su arroz con cerdo o pato. La comida siempre es excelente, no me puedo quejar

Ho potuto pranzare in questo locale e devo dire è stato un piacere! Ottimo cibo, maki buonissimi e anche il Ramen molto buono! Se siete in zona provatelo!!!

Me and 3 of my friends had dinner here and as always the food was great. It’s our second visit. I highly recommend it.

Been here a few times as a couple and family. Really good service (only 10% on the bill which I like), and the food is good with some good Japanese favourites.

Been coming back for over two years now and is definitely one of my favourite places to dine. The service is amazing and the food has always been consistently good. It also amazes me how quickly they can serve the food you order. Hats off to the whole entire team.

Love this place, would recommend it. Went there with the family on Sunday afternoon. Busy but service was attentive.

The Hare and Tortoise is situated in Chiswick High Road and is a short walk away from Turnham Green tube station.

Coming from a Japanese background I feel obliged to say that this is an excellent choice for authentic and stylish asian cuisine in London. I came for a birthday event and loved every second. The waiters are very polite and on the mark, they pay close attention to your needs. The food was excellently made and presented with lot's of choice. Would recommend highly if you like sea food.

Enjoyed a lovely meal here. Typically busy for a saturday night, we were able to get a table without a reservation. The chive and shrimp gyoza was very tasty as a starter. Service was very good. Will definitely return.

I visited this particular branch few times and the food is always delicious. Portions are very reasonable even big as need to take take away usually. Service is quick despite being busy

was invited here by a friend. Absolutely delighted with the food. We had to queue 20 minutes (saturday eve 8pm) the service was very good. we will go back again. i had the tempura prawn and veg, the laksa and japanese beer. loved it all.

Thank you Avon. You were awesome and all your recommendations were spot on. Loved the wine 🍷 too. Food fantastic. Thank you to the chef. Service great.

Had a wonderful dinner at Hare & Tortoise restaurant in Chiswick this evening. First time in a long time!!

Fresh, interesting, delicious, reasonable prices. Ideal for a relaxed quick meal. We would return and recommend

A menudo vamos a Hare and Tortoise en Chiswick para comer sushi y nunca tuvimos nada de que quejarnos.

I've been to Japan, in fact I've been to the village that started Ramen soup and noodles where I was able to taste the most delicious types of Ramen broth - this Hare & Tortoise is a very poor version of any real Ramen soup.

Popped in for an impromptu lunch and had a good meal. We chose a number of the starter dishes (gyoza, tempura) and a Pad Thai. Everything was super fresh and very tasty. Except the edamame beans which tasted old and woolly. I pointed this out - as we hadn’t eaten them, and there was no hesitation about taking this off our bill. It was all very quick and the service was really lovely and friendly, and very efficient, despite how busy the place was. The staff were very quick and efficient clearing and cleaning the tables and areas just vacated. It’s a chain and I’ve been to another branch in the City, also good. Would definitely recommend.

I ordered the LO-Han Vegetarian Chow Mein at the Hare and Tortoise in Chiswick. However, I found a piece of chicken in my dish!!! I pointed this out to the waiter he proceeded to tell me it was mushroom, which it was clearly not!! He was condescending and rude. I was not even given an apology. This was a horrendous meal and as a vegetarian I would tell others to stay away!

Hare & Tortoise offers standard sushi offerings that are fresh and fast in addition to a wide variety of cooked dishes for the non-sushi eater. It is consistently busy, but tables turn over quickly, take-away is available and even when full, the restaurant has a nice relaxed atmosphere. Very family friendly with plenty of space for a buggy if the baby is sleeping.

Apart from the strange name for an Asian restaurant, there's little to complain about. Very tasty food at fair prices for the area. Nice decor. Friendly and efficient service. Would definitely visit again

Decided to eat here on a whim and was not disappointed. The food is tasty several options. Staff friendly. Although it gets busy and the tables are quite close together. Will definitely eat here again.

I’ve eaten in here many times now ... the roasted duck & rice is amazing ... is always busy too so always a good sign!! Great service aswel. Will Defo be going back

I have visited twice, service is really fast, manager seems that he is checking every detail, thumbs up!!!. Every plate we have ordered both times was really tasty. Will visit definitely again.

Llegamos a la Hare y Tortuga para el almuerzo, y nos quedamos estupefactos por el Katsu curry que tenía.

Came as a walk-in, got sat down straight away but can the restaurant can become popular later in the evening (especially on the weekend) so recommend booking. All the food was great with lots of vegetarian options. Decor and ambience was good. Service was prompt & friendly.

De bediening was uiterst vriendelijk en correct. Soms moet je wachten op een tafel, maar nooit lang. Van maandag tm donderdag is reserveren mogelijk. Er is heel veel keuze op de menukaart. Om maar een indruk te geven: tempura, sashimi, sushi, maki, ramen, rijst en nigiri. Wij aten er 2 keer en het beviel ons uitstekend. Mijn partner nam beide keren een noodlemaaltijd, ik de eerste keer een soep en de tweede keer een sushi-box. De sfeer is informeel en het is er altijd gezellig druk.

Very nice place. The food is delicious and the staff are very friendly would definitely recommend. The seafood ramen was so good full of fish flavour and spice

Me encanta la comida japonesa, y tienen un fuerte sabor para que así como algunos conocimientos, ya que nació y creció en Japón. Siempre he estado lejos de cadenas ya que creo que un poco caro para algunos de sus platos y raciones.

Went with starters, crab, calamari, panko prawns, gyoza, Chinese greens and miso soup brilliant food service was fine as well, food brought out with 10mins. Will go again soon ! Around £22 per head was well worth it

こちらでちらしを食べました。ひさびさにうれしかった。また巻き寿司もいくつか頼みました。また行きたいです。

Muy informativo sobre cuales son los platos a elegir. Picante Calamares estaba delicioso! Tuve el pato con arroz y fue el riquísimo. . . ¡volveré!

Comida fusión oriental. Calidad, buen precio y servicio rápido. . . . Cuando voy a Londres siempre me detengo aquí.

We visited the Ealing branch of Hare & Tortoise one Friday night - the restaurant was really busy but we...

The Hare and Tortoise serves up dishes with tastes of Japan, China, Singapore Thailand and Malaysia. We had some gyoza,...

Spoilt for choice for eateries on Chiswick High Road and we decided on the Hare and Tortoise for some pan-Asian...

Comida sabrosa y servicio rápido resto pero tenemos que marcar que bajar en el etiquetado claro para opciones vegetarianas. Pedimos opciones vegetarianas y luego fueron informados por amigos no personal (que pueden contener peces. Realmente no creo que esto es aceptable en este día y edad. Si ha pescado en ella, simplemente no es vegetariano. También, usted puede querer considerar añadir opciones de comida vegetariana.

Quick and reliable, nothing massively impressive but service was decent, attentive and food was ok. We had sushi box and tempura. Can't go wrong really.. toilets very clean!

What a great place to go if you want to enjoy a original menu of trans China-Thai-Japanese dishes.The place always seems near full and the kitchen, which you can see from the dining area, looks like the inside of a beehive, its so busy.

Please be careful- my son ate here and the menu was incorrectly labelled (as later confirmed by the restaurant). A dish contained peanuts even though it wasn't indicated (other dishes were clearly marked). We have eaten here so many times and never worried. My son had to be rushed to hospital his reaction was so severe and we are lucky he is still with us.The restaurant admitted they didn't label the menu correctly - the "contains peanuts" stickers were due to be delivered next week. They offered £100 meal as consolidation for putting a 10 year old boy through a dangerous and traumatic ordeal. Shame on you.

Intended to go to Cote on Turnham Green Terrace Chiswick but on a very hot 34 degree C afternoon found that their air-conditioning had packed in ! Instead went to Hare and Tortoise on Chiswick High Road and soon had a table in a cool a/c setting which was a god send. To kick things off we had a selection of salmon avocado maki, spicy sake maki, pank honey king prawns, vegetable spring rolls and a Seafood Ramen - all excellent and washed down with sparkling water and Green Juice(aloe vera,cucumber) - all very thirst quenching. Later followed by jasmine tea.Service attentive and quick. total bill came to £38 including the service charge.

I took my 10 year old for lunch and the food was good. Nothing special but not bad by any stretch iof the imagination. However, I will struggle to return based on the service (or rather lack of). I am not one for being fawned over, nor need someone to visit my table every two minutes, in fact, I find that equally bad, but I do expect to be looked after and my own politeness and engagement reciprocated. It wasn't just one of the staff but the 3 or so we encountered from entry to exit. It annoyed me enough to mention it as a bad experience to a few people. Frankly, I'll return if I have exhausted all other possibilities. Shame.

We went here with our Vegan daughter; good choice of food for us all, tasty and good price. Service a bit lacking; forgot items.Seemed well used, and good on street parking close by

Went there for dinner. The food is not bad but nothing to rave about. Very nice staff and good service. Fine for a quick meal.

We visited this Japanese restaurant a couple of times! The restaurant was very clean and staffs were very friendly. The food tasted very good for the price you paid. Suitable for your regular dining place!

Delicious food, service and value for money. Great place for all to visit. The food arrived very quickly although the restaurant was full. The waiter was very calm and polite. Worth a visit for quick spot of lunch/dinner.

We went to the Chiswick branchThis restaurant is part of a small chain all London based. It was very busy but we still got a table straight awayPortions good and tasty extensive menu My other half had pad Thai which seemed popular and said it was lovely and I had currylakso which was spicy enough to make my nose runBottle wine and came to 45 quid service included but we had good service so happy enoughLots of people eating sushi and the Kat so curry looked greatVery busy in a Wednesday which has got to be a good thingBut no coffee available which was odd

Heerlijke sushi gegeten. Vriendelijke bediening.Eten was er snel. Is niet bedoeld om lang te tafelen.

Went there for a early evening meal with family, was taken to table quick quickly without much waiting. However, we had to wait for the staff to stop chatting to themselves and catching their eyes, n order to place our order. The drinks came quite quickly and the food soon afterward. However, some of the dishes were shockingly small, for example Singapore Rice Noodles at almost £10 (£9.20), it is more expensive than Chinatown and West end prices. Yet the portion is much to be desire.The tempura soup noddle came in a very large bowl, but again not much content with lots of soup.The service though are quick at times, a number of staff was not well organised or seem to know what to do (experienced) in the skill of waiting (Customer Services).The deco and general lay out are similar to other nearby branches in Ealing, even the toilets are more or less the same right down to the Dyson hand dryer.Generally clean and fresh looking, but the staff needs more training and up skill in the art of Customer Services. The portion need to much better too. Especially in a very competitive market and upper middle demanding Chiswickians. There are lots of strong competitors nearby who have excellent service levels around the same market sector.

I've dined here many times but never reviewed it. All dishes are beautifully presented, the fish smells lovely and all the ingredients are wisely combined. I would recommend Spider Maki (Seaweed roll with deep fried soft shell crab) and Tori Katsu Maki (filled with deep fried chicken in panko)The staff is friendly and polite, the open kitchen reveals a very clean working environment, prices are decent. Bare in mind that they don't reserve tables so better avoid peak times.

Some of he best Japanese dishes I have had. There is so much to choose from he menu that there will be something that caters to everyone's cravings. The Curry Laksa is one of my favourites and they do great tempura as well (massive portions!) Price wise very reasonable considering the gigantic portions you get. Be prepared for a service charge to be added to your bill Altadena (Chiswick branch).

The front of house seemed friendly enough but the waiter was quite flat and inattentive.The yellow tail sushi was nice, but I suspect it sat at the chef's counter longer than it should when it was brought to my table, which is quite important, the ramen was easily the worst ramen I've ever eaten, they were soggy and stuck together, exactly how you don't want it.

I decided to go to Hare and Tortise in Chiswick on a Sunday afternoon. The place was fairly busy with a family of 5 waiting at the entrance to be seated ahead of us. There were a few tables available for two people, so we didn't have a great first impression as no one acknowledged or welcomed us. After waiting for about 10 minutes (still no acknowledgement), the family in front of us were offered a table and only then we were taken to one of the tables.The food arrived promptly after ordering and we were offered to choose whether we wanted the food at once or as the dishes were prepared. We had selected the Singapore Rice noodles (wok fried thin noodles with shredded chicken and pork, prawns, eggs, Chinese mushrooms, carrots, onions, bean sprouts, topped with chillies and served with a lime wedge) along with chive and shrimp gyoza. My wife had a veg chow mein along with pumpkin croquette and veg spring rolls. All dishes were tasty and well prepared.Drinks wise, we had jasmine teas and a Green juice (blend of apple, kiwi and cucumber). The green juice was a total let down as it was full of ice and was quite diluted. It did not seem to be freshly prepared and I had to request for the ice to be taken out. The waiters seems quite busy and you have to make an effort to grab some attention.All in all, the food was tasty and the place had quite a buzz with a mixture of family and couples. I would go back again!

Really great fast delicious food, lovely service (especially Aven, really lovely chap) !!Been coming here for a good year and a half and I've don't take away and eat in and I've never been disappointed ! Great customer service and great team management with good communication between staff and kitchen it seems as everything is always in order! Great food and service well with the price ! Thanks so much to everyone there xx

Pretty average, run of the mill sushi. The type you typically get in prepackaged supermarket trays. I wouldn't be surprised if that's exactly what it was. Duck with rice was ok, nothing that any half decent Chinese takeaway couldn't rustle up in a few minutes. Staff were pleasant enough. Interestingly, after the bill was settled I should have received around £6 in change. This never actually materialised. I would have left this as a tip despite the bland and uninteresting food, but the fact that the staff chose to assume this to be the case leaves a slightly bitter taste. The decor and surroundings here are pleasant enough, but really nothing here worth recommending in terms of food, and certainly not worth returning.

Went on a Sunday ... fantastic food as always .. good selection of drinks and the staff were good too

The Hare and Tortoise menu is a haven for anyone who enjoys sushi, but don't worry. If you're not a sushi and sashimi fan, they also serve a range of Thai and South East Asian dishes if you are in the mood for something else.The sushi is beautifully fresh and we'll presented, and the curries and side dishes are equally delicious. And the range of South East Asian beers and wines is more than enough to keep even the most specific palate happy.The service is efficient, attentive and friendly, without ever being pushy or over done.And beat of all, after an excellent meal with perfect service, the size of the bill will leave you very pleasantly surprised, especially given the very high standard of the food.This is a casual restaurant rather than fine dining, but the quality of the food and the service place it well above the competition.Well worth a visit!

there has always been a queue whenever I have gone by this restaurant and decided to see what the fuss was all about on Saturday. Unfortunately the establishment does not take bookings and it is on a turn up and may have to wait for a table basis. Our starters were all delicious and very well presented as were all our main courses and I can now see the fuss. I also particularly liked the young vibrant atmosphere and the staff were all very charming and attentive. You are not going for a Micheline restaurant but for a quick meal, you will not be disappointed. I just hope they don't become too popular and loose their appeal as normally happens!

I reccomend this place to everyone, the food is amazing and very reasonably priced. Try their amazing curry laksa, and also their delicious green juice!

The food is varied and the quality is always very good. I can personally recommend the katsu curry and duck pancakes.It's a reliable local restaurant that I head to time and time again.

We go often. It is very consistent - good food at a good price. The raw juice drinks are very good and the Singapore noodles are worth having.

One of our favourite restaurants in Chiswick. Staff always lovely and the food is always great. For a chain restaurant their sushi is amazing - always fresh and well presented. Love it.

This place was great! I don't think I've had such fast and efficient customer service ever. The place was full and we had to wait a few minutes to get a table but once we sat down, we ordered drinks and they were on our table within 30 seconds. Food was also surprising quick to come. Good stuff Hare and Tortoise!

I went here last Saturday and the food was amazing! We didn't book so worried about getting a table but despite being busy they sat us next to the window and took our drinks order straight away. As a vegetarian I was spoilt for choice. Went for a starter and the veggie sushi platter- it was all delicious. Fantastic value for money. A refillable herbal tea is only 1.10! Will most certainly return to try a different dish!The only reason I have knocked one star off is because they seemed to be a bit understaffed. The waitresses were rushing around quite a lot and it took a while if we wanted to grab their attention to ask for a refill.

Quick, easy, delicious, good value, good service, local, what more can you ask for? Walked in and hit the spot.

Went for early dinner with a couple of friends and we all loved it, from the starters to the mains and desserts, which I'm not big on, but still enjoyed. The best bit has to be the saki, they have a few different selections which were absolutely delicious. Best of all good value all around with a few drinks deal, so ideal for a group dinner before going out out.

If you like asian food and sushi in particular and are on a budget this is where you should be. I have visited both the Kensington and Chiswick branch and have enjoyed both.On both occasions I had a fried rice dish that was more than plenty to eat. However the tables are a bit small and the seats hard I really enjoy the food and the dessert in particular. I had a mango and Coconut ice cream, the presentation and combinations of flavours is just perfect. you have to wait a bit since this restaurant is always packed which is a sign that this is a great restaurant. Service could be a bit more attentive but considering the price I cannot complain and will gladly return to test their sushi.

My sister who lives in London suggested this restaurant. This is a good Asian Fusionrestaurant with choices catering for all who enjoy Asian food. Conveniently locatedin Chiswick and open for lunch till dinner, so no need to rush. The service is quickand the food good whether it be Japanese, Chinese or Malaysian dishes. Noreservations taken but management was kind enough to make an exception whenI rang from Canada to make a reservation for a reunion with my family for lunchon my trip back to Chiswick where I used to live. During my short trip I ate hereseveral times both lunch and dinner. Wish I had this restaurant where I live now in Canada.

I came here to have dinner with my friends, we ordered a few dishes as you can see in pictures. It all taste fresh and great with reasonable price! I am happy to have Japanese food here! Hope you enjoy your time here.:)

Remembered going to the Hare & Tortoise on Kensington High Street many times in the past and took the opportunity to visit their restaurant in Chiswick for lunch. A bonus for me on walking to the restaurant from the parking was seeing Rick Stein on his red Ferrari mobile phone walking past Devonshire Road. If he hadn't been on his phone I would have liked to have thanked him for the many hours of pleasure he has given me with his culinary travel programs on TV. The restaurant in High Street Kensington was run by Japanese all those years ago, whereas this restaurant is run by Thai. Service excellent and friendly.However music playing in restaurants is a bugbear of mine and for some reason they couldn't turn down to volume. The menu is a mix of Japanese ( sushi, sashimi, yakitori, maki, tempura, etc.), Malay, Thai - excellent choice.To drink had the jasmine tea, green juice, and sparkling water and for starters had salmon sashimi, shrimp sushi, spicy tuna maki and miso soup and chicken yakitori. Followed by Curry Laksa and shrimp gyoza. All excellent.TIP - The Curry Laksa portion ( fish, shrimp, cuttlefish, soya in bowl of thin noodles in spicy soup) is huge so share bowl with friend and order other smaller dishes to share.One request - for toddlers there isn't much choice if you want to avoid raw fish and noodles - would be great if Hare and tortoise could add Chicken Katsu to their menu ( breaded chicken) for children, as the toddler with us wasn't too keen on the fatty glazed chicken yakitori on a stick.Pleasant experience, but bill not cheap at £51 including service, for two adults and one toddler. But food great and great service. For desert, go to Fouberts, around the corner on Turnham Green Terrace for the worlds best ice cream !

Hi! I absolutely loved this restaurant. The service is very friendly, the restaurant itself is very clean and the food is really yummy!! I will defo go back! I recommend this restaurant to anyone.

I went there 3 times while staying in Chiswick. They have a very good Asian fusion food. Laksa and Chay Keow Teow were delightful and tasty. Busy place.

Katsu curry is amazing. Service is always friendly so cant complaint there. It tends to get very busy on the weekends so you could expect a cue sometimes. Definitely recommend this place (even if they did just raise their prices slightly)
