Haruka Japanese Cuisine in Haringey

Been here twice now. Lovely food, friendly customer service and very clean. I recommend the bento box, it was very filling and good value for money.

Great food and company. Very good prices.

Really disappointing, egg fried rice was way too eggy and tasted of nothing else. I got raw tofu wrapped in undercooked gooey batter. Tempura veg undercooked and no flavour, broth that came with it was bland. Even after adding my own soy sauce, it was inedible.

Delicious authentic food, generous portions. Had very tasty spicy seafood ramen and gyoza.

Food was amazing. I left very happy and will definitely come back.

We have a number of Japanese restaurants nearby. This one is the best in my opinion, both for quality of food and price. Thoroughly recommended. Very small and cosy. Friendly prompt service too.

가성비 좋음 근처 갈 일 있어서 간 김에 배고파서 들렀는데 맛있었음! 멀어서 다시 갈 진 모르겠지만 주위 갈 일 있으면 또 가고싶을듯

Lovely small place, very friendly staff. Susi filled very rich, wok pastas are amazing. If I have no time, I order it online, I get my order super fast. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

We had a really delicious meal - lots of choice, big portions and everything really tasty. Thank you!

This is a really lovely restaurant with friendly staff. I’ve been here twice and enjoyed the meal thoroughly both times. A real gem in the area

Went here the other night not from the area visiting friend , looking for a chinese on map that had closed down so went in here with no ill intent asking about it and asked if they do Kung pow chicken obviously they didn’t as it’s japanese , so it was no big deal. They suggested korean spicey wings instead… it was no big deal, so I looked at the meal it seemed to have a very similar sauce… so i asked if they could just do that but with chicken instead of wings… the guy was being very awkward about it Eventually he said they could do it but they would have to charge me a pound extra to take the meat off of the Bone his exact words… I asked him why he couldn’t just swap it for another type of chicken, i.e. battered chicken or fresh chicken… so they said okay yes we could probably do that… so i order dumplings, egg fried rice and that was it. And upon payment he asked if I could pay an extra pound as it would be hassle marinating the chicken lol his exact words… I agree to it and paid £18.50 for the dumplings egg fried rice and this korean spicey meal… when I got home and I opened it. I had about 6 to 7 little pieces of pre made out a packet battered chicken in the bottom of the little container, the container was not even halfway filled, and these containers are very small, only a couple of inches deep. Absolute scam job… very uncooperative….just charging extra money for nothing and giving very small portions… avoid ! Just at it trying to fleece the crouch end locals 💲

Amazing food and lovely staff! Used to live nearby and get it all the time, and was always great. I miss them!

Went there today for my mum’s birthday and everything was amazing. There was nothing that i could fault. The lady who served was so nice and accommodating even bringing a little desert and sang happy birthday. We were shocked at how low the price was at the end for what we ordered Would 100% recommend and recommend the salt and pepper squid, the best i have ever had Will defo be going back :)

It is a great place to grab sushi and in general Japanese food. The staff was very friendly. Prices and presentation are great. We will definitely coming back.

Such fresh and yum sushi. The employees were so amazing as well. A great place to dine in! The nigiri and salmon platter were so fresh

Very good ! Portions were good felt like bento box slightly missing something but 10/10 banging food… thanks guys

Great sushi and sashimi in Hornsey. Salmon combo set was delicious, fresh and well presented. The restaurant was inviting with friendly service and the menu has a lot of options including some Korean dishes like dolsot bibimbap. The karaage was super fresh and hot, but didn’t have any salt in the coating so I enjoyed it dipped in sichimi and soy sauce. I felt the sweet chilli sauce overpowered the karaage a bit so I avoided that.

Portion sizes were massive so I recommend ordering one dish first and more later if you’re not full. Price point was very decent for the amount of food that you are getting. The staff was also very friendly and refills your tea for you once you finish your cup or for a top up. They also give complementary miso soup with some of the dishes.

Ate here twice and had delivery once. Great food, great selection. Service is great too.

Lovely food, quick service, good price and friendly staff. Highly recommended.

amazing food. great staff and INCREDIBLE SERVICE

Great find on a midweek evening, quality sushi and sashimi and very reasonably priced. Keep it up Team Haruka!

My partner and I stopped here last night after the cinema and we will definitely come back. Portions are a very good size and everything was delicious, especially the sushi and gyoza. The staff is very nice too. A great place!

Very nice cozy shop for food and drink

Lovely little restaurant with the loveliest owner. He is so polite and sweet. The food is delicious and doesn't break the bank.

Tasty food, lovely staff, great service - overall, a wonderful experience!

We order from here all the time and the food is always excellent. Consistent 5 stars!

My wife and I rate Haruka as having the best food at the best value in Crouch End, where we have lived for over 30 years. We shared a starter crispy pork and chicken in pastry. I had beef curry, which comes with boiled rice, ginger and mixed vegetables. My wife had udon noodles which came with chicken and mixed vegetables. The beef was very tender. For dessert I had monchi ice cream mango flavour, while my wife had green tea ice cream. My wife had two cans of sprite while I had green tea, which is served with top ups included. We had change from £40 so a great price.

Lovely service, fantastic food and a lovely atmosphere 👍👍👍👍👍

Great meal, super fresh, excellent proportions, friendly staff. We're going back.

Amazing place the food was really good great selection of sushi and starters definitely be going back to try out the rest of the menu would 100% recommend if you like sushi

Delightful place, delicious, fresh, generous and reasonable!

This place is so lovely. The waitress is very friendly and the service impeccable. The food is nice and well presented. I would highly recommend supporting this local business.

Is a very good, nice and clean restaurant. The atention is excellent and personalized. Jasmine tea is excellent to accompany food, it is served in a very nice pot and plenty to share. This place is 100% recommended.

I got a tofu bento box & it was delicious. They changed the tofu teriyaki to curry for me as a favour and the woman who took my take away order was so pleasant. Highly recommend

Really delicious food. Fantastic menu - a wide but thoughtful selection, including lots of vegetarian options. Small but cute and cozy interior with Japanese lanterns and lovely tableware. We tried the avocado and spicy tuna rolls, tofu skin udon soup and chicken yaki soba which was all super fresh and expertly flavoured. Great green tea to boot, with free refills! We will be back. Highly recommend.

We are always looking for a good ramen and after reading reviews we couldn’t wait to taste this one. We were greeted by a pleasant, attentive man and received really good customer service. However, the food just didn’t live up to our expectations we found the ramen very bland and mediocre, We did surprisingly enjoy the octopus balls but the chicken karrage was very dry and inedible.

Lovely family run Japanese restaurant with great food and service. Good portions and everything done to great to high standards! We definitely recommend it and order from here often.

Have walked past this place a few times but finally went in this evening and everything exceeded my expectations. Lovely service, great tasting food and fantastic prices. This is now my go-to restaurant.

Our server was very nice, but the food was not good. The gyoza were nicely pan fried, but the contents were mushy and unrecognizable. The ramen was the saddest I've ever seen. I took one look at my ramen and knew it wasn't going to be good. The tonkotsu broth looked like watered down milk and tasted about the same and the eggs were overcooked. I've had ramen in a lot of places, both in Japan and elsewhere, but this was by far the worst I've ever had. We sent our food back after just a taste.

Ignore these bad reviews below. I have been sitting in and ordering takeaways from Haruka for over a year and the owner is one if the nicest people I have ever met. A true gentleman. The food is amazing and also very reasonably priced. I lived in Japan for a while and have also frequented many Japanese restaurants in London. This is by far the best value for money Japanese restaurant around. Not only is the food amazing, but you are helping support a truly lovely person who runs it. I will cherish this place forever.

They are liars. They promised a refund. They were as rude on the night as they are in their response. Horrible food. Horrible service. We will be taking further action via legal means to ensure that the scam does not happen to others. We were placing an order via Uber. We had 50% off promotion and the amount in the cart was £21. We had to change payment cards. We did this and went back in to process the order. The full amount was taken instead of the 50% promotional amount. We contacted the restaurant immediately. Despite this they stated that they had processed the order (literally seconds later) and could do nothing. Even though it took another 45 minutes to have food delivered. Via the Uber app we could do nothing because the order had not been processed. We phoned back the restaurant. I work in a restaurant and when this sort of thing happens we resolve it for the customer. They continued to say that they could do nothing. We called Uber who said that they could do nothing until the order was complete. The restaurant and Uber both agreed to refund the difference, once the order was delivered. While we were on the phone with Uber, Uber was calling us. The restaurant then called us back, explaining that they had contacted Uber (as they should have done initially). We were promised a refund by both. In real terms this was unacceptable. Not one aspect of it worked and now have been spending additional time trying to rectify this problem created by Uber and made worse by the restaurant. Weeks later, neither Uber, nor the restaurant have honoured their promise to provide a refund. We promised we wouldn't leave a bad review if they kept their word. They didn't. We are. Food not worth the cost with the discount we should have received. Customer service horrible.

Very tasty and a great selection of dishes. The fish was really really fresh. And the atmosphere was nice. They also have great service.

Refused to honour UberEats discount and restate that they have no duty to do so. From Uber: "It seems this promo code was set up for orders from a specific restaurant only. Promo codes will only apply in the restaurants they were set up for. As a result, we can’t adjust the amount of this order." So the restaurant is responsible...as we stated. They stated Uber was. Uber stated that they are. Both Uber and Haruka stated that we had to accept the delivery to get the discount. They lied and were as rude as you can see they are when dealing with this. We have call records, and received calls and contacts from Uber in response. It is the principle...of course we will never use them again...but no business should be able to behave in this manner. No customer should be treated in this way. We will not tolerate it. We have consumer and legal rights which will be exercised accordingly. All they had to do was cancel the order which we stated we would resend including the discount which had been removed after we tried to place the order and had to update the card. They refused. This took up hours of our evening, including them calling Uber (they said they couldn't do this but then did)...Uber calling us as a result of their contact. Both agreeing to refund after delivery. They were rude. They are liars. We will have our rights respected.

I’m so sorry to have to say it but it was really awful. Bland and watery miso soup. Chicken Katsu were inedible - is that really chicken? Also there was so so much of it, it made it worse. Don-buri also poor. None of anywhere near authentic Japanese food I’m afraid. Had to basically throw most of it plus the packaging away. A real disappointment.

Lovely meal with family to celebrate Great food and excellent service will definitely go again Aubergine miso a real find but all the food very tasty and generous portions

Hands down for this magnificent sushi, I had rainbow roll and avocado salmon, it was just amazing, so fresh and completely different than the others in the area, even wasabi was fresh and it looks to be homemade-I could eat here all day long

This place is just amazing, I would highly recommend it to anyone, chef knows what he is doing, hands down for magnificent work

Excellent sushi platter. Fresh delicious ingredients, high quality, great variety of sushi. Great price as well for Japanese food. Staff were very friendly. The restaurant is small so advise booking to ensure you get a table!

Lovely meal served by very friendly staff. Would really recommend

The high-rating is well deserved - great food at reasonable prices, friendly staff, fast service. My favourite restaurant in the area.

Best Udon ramen. The noodles is perfect not over cooked and the broth is delicious. The sushi is great too. My fav local Japanese 👍

One of the best Japanese restaurants in London. Genuine hidden gem!

Delicious food and superb service

Super friendly staff and great sushi. Curry portions are huge and more than enough for one person. Incredible value for money.ill definitely be back

Beautiful LOVE LOVE THE KATSU A MUST !!!!!!! AHHH

AMAZING!! Discovered this little gem because I desperately wanted some sushi on my birthday. The location is pretty small but the food is great (BEST SASHIMI EVER!!!) and our waiter (who I’m guessing is also the owner?) was extremely polite and lovely to us. Can’t wait to be back!!!

We had a birthday dinner there for 9 people. Staff are extremely friendly and accommodating, and they took our special food requests seriously. The food was anso delicious and fresh, it felt like having a personal chef. Flavours are very authentic, even their condiments and cutlery. This will be a go to spot for me and all my friends. We had such a blast.

Blend, tasteless, depressing Japanese food spread. Ordered takeaway on ubereats the salmon bento, ramen and gyudon. Ramen tasted like diluted instant noodles. (Though they got their char siew pork very well done!) The salmon bento was very salty and thankfully the most tasteful of the rest. The gyudon was a blend mix of ingredients with unmarinated beef and a mush of rice. However, for the rotten cherry on top (my take on the saying) I was genuinely surprised by the diluted miso soup that tasted more like miso flavoured water (or not even), then miso, or diluted miso. After bites from the salty bento, or depressing blend gyudon; I would accidentally happen upon the miso to relive the atrocity that was a waste of money on takeout dinner. I can now conclude, was my horrible dinner..

Delicious food and attentive service. Decent prices. Definitely coming back

Wonderful service , excellent food . We have eaten in many Japanese restaurants in the north london area and i have to say this is the best. Tempura was straight iut of the kitchen , hot and fresh and so tasty. Extensive menu , spoilt for choice. Highly recommend a visit here

Best Japanese food in crouch end, it never disappoints. The bento boxes are to die for.

Good service, good prices, good food!

We were walk ins after a day's work, and we were very pleasantly surprised by the good quality of food! 🙌

A small and pleasant restaurant. Very tasty food. excellent service. We will eat there again.

A warm welcome on entry. We arrived at a quiet time of 5pm, our first visit to a Japanese restaurant. My wife and I were given clear descriptions of the food on the menu and asked about allergies in advance. The food was served promptly, hot and well presented. I ordered number 44, katsu chicken curry with rice and salad, my wife had number 83, chicken with noodles and ginger. For desert we buth had green tea ice cream. A wonderful meal at a very reasonable price.

Potentially the best Tonkotsu ramen Iv had outside of Japan. Lovely staff!

Amazing tempura vegetables and great service.

Excellent, fresh and delicious food. Perfect friendly service and very reasonable prices. I wish it was closer to home as I would be a very regular customer.

Called the restaurant to cancel my order as it had been way over the allocated delivery time, the restaurant and the owner picked up the phone and proceeded to tell me that it was impossible to cancel the order because he had already cooked it and it had been sitting for 20 minutes waiting for a delivery driver He also then told me that he didn’t care if the food was cold or not as we had already paid. He then refused to let me speak and told me that if i wasn’t happy to leave a bad review “I don’t care”

Excellent friendly authentic Japanese restaurant.

Great place, great people, great food.

Really good sushi. Ordered off ubereats and everything came fine. Nothing bad to say about the sushi. We had a selection of nigiri and inside out sushi and they were really good

Best Korean food I have ever had. I ordered through Uber eats and my food was very tasty and perfect temperature. Ten out of ten for quality, taste and price. Thank you for the tasty food looking forward to visit the restaurant when it’s open for table service. 🙂

Very welcome and pleasant atmosphere, food fresh and well served. Will definitely return. Evelyn

Good local Japanese/Korean/sushi place, no frills, the takoyaki were pretty awesome.

Food was great, friendly top notch service and nice little spot. Will definitely go back

Food was very delicious and elegantly presented. Staff was very polite. Recommend to try the food from there.

Excellent food and fantastic service. Also all necessary covid precautions taken. Couldn't fault this place.

Great food and service - strongly recommend. The bento boxes are a highlight.

Absolutely delicious! Lovely service too, we'll definitely be back again.

It was my first time ordering deliveroo from this place, so I am not judging the whole restaurant. I ordered the miso aubergine, the steamed gyoza and the chirashi bowel. Aside from the gyoza that being already made and frozen so they are very difficult to fault, the miso soup the aubergine miso and - most importantly the chirashi - were very disappointing. (If you ever try the chirashi from Japan House in central london you will immediately see the difference) In the chirashi the fish was not fresh and tender - aside the salmon - and the rice it was a lump. The miso was very bland and the aubergine miso was a bit too hard. As it had 5 star reviews I was expecting more. Unfortunately, I am not sure whether I will order again.

Impressed 😍🍣 Gorgeous slices of sashimi and beautifully balanced sushi. Everything is fresh and well presented. I had take away and it was utterly delectable, on time and the soups were hot hot hot! Very reasonable prices for sushi. The condiments were finally generous! Many places skimp on wasabi or ginger but not here! Very generous. The gyoza was also delectable. Highly recommend!

Absolutely delicious sushi, sashimi, katsu's and tempura! 😋 We ordered a good selection of these things and honestly couldn't fault anything! Even the sauces that came with it were so damn yummy, especially the bulldog sauce *dribbles*. Everything was yummy and tasted extremely fresh, the prices are great for the portion sizes, totally worth it and I will definitely be ordering from them again 😍 Sushi is literally one of my favourite dishes and this place really hit the spot!! Thank you!

Arrived there and greeted with very friendly and polite staff. Ordered online for collection and everything was very prompt, beautifully displayed and well packed. The food was packaged in a VERY considerate way where things are separated to keep them from making items soggy (I thought this was really well thought about for customers). Got home and my family were shocked at how delicious and tasty every single item was. My particular favourite was the salmon sashimi as it was extremely delicate, yet silky with great bite -LOVE IT! Definitely recommend and will be back!

First time trying Haruka today and I have to admit, it might be the best sushi I have eaten in London. I recently went to Japan so was dying for some good fresh sushi and, trust me, Haruka definitely does not disappoint! Would 100% recommend! P.s salmon sashimi is a must order as well as the yellow tail!!

Very nice food and generous portions!

So lucky to have this place in Crouch End and really looking forward to its post-coronavirus reopening. Our family has visited twice and been treated to phenomenal service and great authentic Japanese cuisine , reminding us of our visit to Japan. Can’t wait to return.

It really is quite hard to fault this place, heavenly food and a warm atmosphere. Can’t wait to go back!

Reasonably priced well presented food but just off the beaten track

What a great experience, recommended by a friend and wow did we love our experience. 4 of us out for a chin wag and a catch for a belated old friends 60th birthday . He looks so much younger than his age . A lovely welcome from the owners wife and her little bump New baby on the way. We ordered starters 4 6 7 8 10 11 13 from the starters and 118 and 119 . You all need to look up the menu on line all fabulous. Friends had wine really reasonably price and great no alcohol drinks also . Our mains came and we all cleared the plates . 57 70 75 and 79 omg what great food. Thanks for the great service and we will defo be back ... best gyoza I’ve had in a long time ... we will be BACK .. Friends you will have to book as it’s a little secret in Tottenham lane xxxx ✨ ✨ ✨ ✨ ✨ ✨ ✨

Very cosy and pretty with absolutely delicious Japanese food. We had Ramen, sushi, Chicken teriyaki, gyoza -so quite a few. Everything was excellent and the bill wasn't steep at all!

This is place is an absolute asset to the area. The menu selection is huge. The foid is tasty, service is great and cheaper than compared to others. The dining area has seating for approximately 20 so book in advance as can get busy.

Welcoming place, lovely people, a touch underseasoned but I recommend it

Attentive service, good food, really good for the price. Need to go back to try the tonkotsu sometime, that'll help me decide for sure.

We’ve visited a few times now with the kids and had a lovely meal each time. Service is very friendly and the food is delicious. Especially good lunchtime deals; great sushi and lovely presentation. My kids love the “toadstool” radish decorations! Definitely worth a visit.

A gorgeous, understated sushi restaurant serving what I think may be some of London's best sushi. Buttery salmon, fresh tuna, crispy prawns, all presented masterfully alongside beautiful carrot butterflies and mooli windmills. The menu is hugely varied, so if you're not in the mood for sushi, you can always opt for curries, ramen, oyako don, and so on. For taste this good, and presentation this intricate, you'd think you'd be paying Nobu prices - and yet, I ordered over 15 pieces of sushi, and it came to less than £25. Unbelievable! The staff are very attentive and kind as well. I will definitely be back - multiple times, and judging by how busy this place was (with takeaways and dine-ins), I won't be the only ones. Highly recommended!

My third time here now. I have eaten the set lunch before which is amazing value. I went for dinner and was even better. Fantastic starters and sushi. Great value as well as lovely staff

Very tasty and quality food. Friendly staff and good service. Loved the experience dining there. Will definitely go back.

I love sushi and trust me Haruka best local place Best Sushi on Haringey area Very friendly staff And of course price good is well
