Anoche hice un pedido de comida para llevar a las 8. 40 pm a través de su sitio web. Tiene la opción de elegir a qué hora desea su entrega y si no pueden entregar en este momento, entonces afirma que se comunicarán con usted y le informarán la hora más cercana a la hora elegida, por lo que elegí 9. 15 pm (ya que no había opción para 'lo antes posible').

Comida ordenada como entrega, no hace falta decir que mi pedido incluyó mi dirección completa. Ahora, si pones mi dirección en un navegador por satélite o en Google Maps, te llevará a la puerta principal. Claramente no para su conductor deli, que cuando 10 minutos tarde me lleva a descubrir dónde vivo, pero no puede decirme dónde está él para que lo ayude. Él me cuelga. Unos 15 minutos más tarde, finalmente aparece.Ahora por la comida. Pedí ramen y tempura veg. ¿Alguna vez has comido estos fríos? YukEl ramen claramente se había cocinado por separado porque el pollo y las verduras estaban sin sabor, los fideos se habían pegado y la salsa no tenía sabor a nada. Tuve que conseguir un cuchillo y cortar los fideos en trozos. La tempura veg vino con una salsa que solo se puede describir como agua marrón.No volveré, y no probaré el restaurante como una cena.

El mejor sushi que puedes conseguir en Cardiff y han estado en el negocio durante mucho tiempo, por lo que debe significar algo. También tienen una pequeña y bonita área de caseta que me da un poco de privacidad, pero a veces todos están reservados. ¡Yo definitivamente recomiendo este lugar!

Así que me presenté a las 10:45 el viernes para que me dijeran que la cocina estaba cerrada. El letrero dice que el lugar está abierto hasta las 11 pm. Quería llevar y me rechazaron. La cocina debería cerrarse a las 11 pm, no un tiempo arbitrario antes de lo que contradice sus tiempos establecidos.No quiero mi custome a las 10: 45, entonces mi costumbre no es deseada en ningún otro momento. EVITAR.

Habíamos ido a ver a Courtney Act en Tramshed y fuimos a buscar un lugar para comer después del espectáculo. Teniendo en cuenta que estábamos tan tarde (10: 15 pm llegando, el lugar no se cerró hasta las 11 pm)Así que me alegro de haber encontrado este lugar! Un personal tan servicial y no se sentía en absoluto como si fuéramos un obstáculo llegando tan tarde.La comida fue excelente calidad! Tan fresco y sabroso! Las albóndigas fritas que teníamos tan ligero y simplemente precioso y mis esposas curry y langostinos fritos eran simplemente increíble.Soy vegetariano y tenía buenas opciones allí para mí.En general, es un hallazgo excelente y sin duda recomendaría este lugar para todos los que visitan Cardiff. 10/10! !

Llamé cuatro días antes del feriado bancario y pregunté si el menú del almuerzo estaría disponible para ese día. La encargada dijo que no sabía y tuvo que verificar primero, me llamó después de cinco minutos y me dijo que estaría disponible. Inmediatamente pedí reservar una mesa para el lunes, pero cuando fui al restaurante me sorprendí cuando la camarera me dijo que el almuerzo no estaba disponible, le expliqué que había llamado antes y le pregunté sobre eso, pero me dijo " lo siento, no está disponible hoy ". Me enojé mucho y solo perdí mi tiempo y mi aperitivo con la situación. ¿Cómo pueden decir algo en el teléfono que no es verdad en absoluto?

3 times ordered, 3 times late, at least once the food was cold. So far, on the third occasion, it's 2 hours and the food has not turned up and the restaurant does not answer their calls. We should have learned our lessons from the last delay. Terrible take away service - do not use!!!

Were excited to visit as recently moved to Canton. But were sadly disappointed. My partners noodle dish was fairly standard. My ramen noodle soup however was sadly dreadful. Possibly the most bland and flavourless soup I've ever eaten. Unfortunately there was no opportunity to inform our sever as we were never checked on once - when all of 2 other tables were sat in the restaurant. The service matched the food. Our hunt for a decent Japanese restaurant in Cardiff continues...

The food here was a tenfold better than other sushi places in Cardiff. It was delicious! I had raw salmon and it was so fresh. It was so busy, the poor staff were run off their feet but the food still came out with great quality. Couldn't recommend enough! Not just me that thinks it's fab too, whilst I was there a customer asked to make a booking for a party of 30 people next weekend... so maybe just don't try and go at the same time as them as you may not get a seat...

Unfortunately the chicken teriyaki was dry (maybe reheated and served again) and quite cold but when I called to complain they sent a new batch as soon as they could so the ervice was good.

I'm not ordering from Ichiban again. Every single time it's late. Sometimes by 15 minutes, once by 45 minutes, and tonight by 30 minutes. The (equally frustrated and empathetic) delivery driver told me his shift didn't start until 15 minutes after my delivery was due. Why accept an order knowing it is literally impossible to deliver it at the agreed time? I didn't even get a call to say it was going to be late!

I want to start by saying delivery driver was brilliant and very understanding. waited 45 minutes past order, contacted Ichiban to be told it would be 5 mins. 15 minutes later I had to call again. The staff were not polite, tried on numerous occasions to hang up on me, did not let me speak until I had to raise my voice slightly. Didn't even deliver the full order. Awful service and do not recommend it especially for the price. Offered no good will gesture either.

Hay dos restaurantes Ichiban Japanese en Cardiff. Estoy revisando el Cantón, lo que siento es mucho mejor que el otro restaurante en la calle Albany. El servicio es siempre rápido, agradable y la calidad de la comida es increíble. Tamaño porciones decentes y el sushi es siempre fresco. El salmón nigiri, rollo de atún picante y yaki carne son los favoritos firmes niku conmigo. Tendemos a visitar al menos una vez al mes, a veces dos veces para conseguir el fix de sushi. Si el dinero no fue objeto tomaría aquí semanal es muy bueno. Altamente recomendado.

El atún no era fresca era bastante carente de humedad y la edad sabía dinámicos y gyoza cocinado de congelados. Los rollos de california estaban muy secos y con la minima se presión. Si este es el mejor de Cardiff tiene para ofrecer, entonces es preciso que a su juego.

First of all, credit where credit is due - food was incredible (except the beef noodles I was told - waste of money) BUT. Huge but here, it took 2 hours to deliver which means we had our Saturday night dinner at 9.40pm. She assured us and hour tops. We had to call 4-5 times to ask where it was. The driver was lovely and called the restaurant to see if we could get a discount. We got 25% off in the end. Which was okay.

Ordered a takeaway from this establishment after seeing they had a high rating. 4 dishes (3 of them side orders) cost £25 so expected good quality, tasty food. Was extremely disappointed. The food was terrible! The vegetable tempura and gyoza were extremely greasy and the tempura was mainly made up of small scraps of left over vegetables. Very disappointing for nearly £6! The yaki soba was tasteless with hardly any chicken in it. The tori karaage was mainly thick, greasy batter which was slimy inside and we were unsure whether it consisted of chicken. Oil oozed out when we cut into them. Will never eat here again or recommend it. Unbelievable that food of such poor quality can justify being sold at these prices!

Ordered food at 5:59pm and was quoted 45-60 mins delivery. At 7pm, an hour after ordering I checked Just Eat where obviously restaurant had logged it as delivered at 6:55pm- it was not. So I called restaurant who said she would check on delivery driver but that he had taken a lot with him. The restaurant called back To say ten minutes. At 7:15pm I called back to say still not there and have to leave home. She called back to say ten minutes which I couldn't wait so I said please cancel order and refund me money. 'Oh no you have to do that with Just Eat' I refused and she said she would phone just eat for me. She never phoned back and the delivery driver arrived at 7:40 (while I was locking the door!) flustered and upset because everyone else has had a go at him for being late. The restaurant SHOULD NOT take on more orders than they can handle when they do not have the delivery staff to pull it off. It is unfair on the driver and the customer and my food was gross because of it. Cottonwool soft shell crab and soppy, sweaty edamame wasn't what I had in mind. As for the delivery time of 6:55 being logged- really misleading to new costumers when they fix the system like this. If it was honest timings I would be more understanding. 1 hour and forty minutes for sushi from 2 miles away.

Ordered various pieces of shashimi and nigiri, along with a hot dish for someone else. The food took over an hour and fifty minutes to be delivered (originally stated to be 40-60 minutes) due to there only being one delivery driver for a Saturday night. By the time the food was delivered the fish had started to dry out and cook slightly, and the Chicken Katsu was luke-warm. Disappointing considering that Ichiban have always provided excellent food the previous few times that I've ordered take-out.

We visited Ichiban again on Saturday and the food was delicious. This is still the best Japanese food I have tasted I the UK.We started with Edamame beans, then rainbow maki, tempura, salmon sashimi, a wonderful pork dish and spicy chicken yaki soba.It was the first time one of our friends had eaten Japanese. She was especially unsure about eating 'raw fish' but after the first mouthful of salmon sashimi, her face beamed. It was delicious and just melts in your mouth.The experience of sushi from a restaurant like this is miles away from the supermarket variety and so worth a try.I must say, we found the service excellent. Fun, attentive and they made some great food suggestions.We had a great evening!

Firstly, the photo above is of the Albany Road restaurant, not the Cowbridge Road one as claimed. The food and service at Ichiban are good; no complaints there. This is a restaurant with some quirks. After a number of years claiming that their credit card machine is not working, they now have a big sign saying 'cash only' so be prepared for that. Having said that, they do sometimes accept credit cards; people at a neighbouring table paid by card on one occasion when we were told that the machine was out of order :)The menu states 50p 'service charge' if you order tap water. Worth knowing that charging for tap water (even if you call it 'service charge') is not legal in England and Wales in a licenced restaurant. Definitely not very Japanese, where you are always given free iced tap water without even asking.That said, nice food and good atmosphere - it's a shame that they spoil it with some weirdness.

Sushi DayJapanese

Consistently shocking service. I feel like the person who works there has a future as a doctor's surgery receptionist, they do as much as possible to prevent you ordering. They try and get you to use a machine to order, which often doesn't work, and if you mention it you get scowled at. They seem unaware of how to fix it. They are extremely rude when you arrive and if you're lucky enough to get their attention they treat you as an inconvenience, manners don't exist. They are obviously focused on Deliveroo rather than walk ins for lunch. Sadly it's nice enough sushi (albeit a very confusing menu that makes no sense on the ordering machine) but the service is rude and confusing. This has happened on too many occasions now and I won't be returning.

Osaka Japanese Restaurantlocation-icon201 Cowbridge Road East, Cardiff CF11 9AJ WalesJapanese

This is my new favourite restaurant. Cozy, unassuming, family run with a warm and welcoming atmosphere... and then the food arrives. There was silence at our table except for the occasional sigh as we enjoyed a taste sensation. I can only say you must pay Osaka in Cardiff a visit. You won't regret it.

Matsudai Ramenlocation-icon213 City Road, Cardiff CF24 3JD WalesJapanese

After hearing such great things about Matsudai, I have to say I left the restaurant rather disappointed. I’d like to start by saying that the food I did receive, was very nice and full of flavour. However, for a restaurant that prides itself on a small menu that receives full care and attention, I was very let down by how many key ingredients were unavailable to me. We went on a Saturday evening at 8pm, so a very usual time to be eating. 3 of the things we tried to order were unavailable. Including kimchi, eggs (???? At a ramen place???) and the only dessert they had on the menu was also not available. The food I had was lovely but I didn’t receive the full experience
