Iro Sushi Dalston in Hackney

Not a good day. Food is not recommended at all. The place is unbelievable tiny. You can barely talk

Nice ramen just eggs were very overcooked

First time participating ♩ It's been a while since I had ramen, it was delicious 🍜

Food is good 👍🏻Service good. I didn’t like inside of that restaurant .

Very crowd. I have been assigned to seat in the aisle. I have been push and ‘touched’ thousands time in the entire eating time. Very annoying. They missed my order twice. Left with sadness. Never again for all Eat Tokyo. Terrible experience eating here.

Second time here, very disappointed this time. The lunch menu is bit pricy and what disappoints the most is they use pickle bamboo shoot rather than fresh ones in their ramen… the manager was not very friendly and they put service charge on every single bill even not much service was involved.

Most of the staff (the guys) were extremely impatient. Asking us if we were ready to order every 20 seconds (not exaggerating), clearing dishes before we are finished, etc. It's just not need when the place isn't even bush.

What a lovely team works here. Nicely greeted by the team when we entered. Great professional and friendly service. The same tasty quality of Eat Tokyo, hidden nicely in this quiet street of the bustling Oxford street. Surely recommended!

it's a chain but it's great - wonderful service at this under the radar location. not far from Bond high Street. surprising to find this level of quality and reasonable pricing in such a tourist saturated area. Brahmin is on point. I also enjoyed very good tempura.

We came with my friends 1 week ago and we had a wonderful dining experience at Eat Tokyo! The food was delicious, with great options at very reasonable prices. The staff was friendly and attentive, especially Sourabh, who took great care of us and provided excellent food recommendations. Thank you for making our visit so enjoyable! 🍱🤍

The moment we got into the restaurant we were greeted by the staff and they were really polite. They were really helpful with our luggage and offered us a seat so that we don’t have to worry about it. The food wasn’t too pricy and comes in standard set. The don was very beautiful and tasty. I liked the quiet and peaceful environment for an early dinner. Overall very satisfied and will definitely go again.

Great Tonkotsu ramen as usual. Prices and atmosphere are good. Service this time was average. The person who served us seemed inpatient and forgot to ask what my partner wanted to order, it was only two of us. Other than that, it’s a great place to eat some decent Japanese cuisine.

Probably one of our favourite Eat Tokyo's in London, great variety of various Japanese dishes... making it really difficult to choose. Will just have to visit again.

Great place to eat and to be Sharma service was excellent

was literally so banging gonna go back everyday

First in on a Thursday. 11:30 for quick lunch with mate. Ordered a selection of nigiri and fried and sides. The squid nigiri was not fresh. Was deep opaque white with no firmness to it. The membrane was still attached to it so was very chewy. Salmon roe and fried oysters was not fresh. Only good thing was takoyaki. Missing the octopus inside. So it was a really bad experience. Only good thing was the green matcha tea to wash it all down with. Go to the Covent Garden branch one instead this place has issues. Maybe the ramen is good.

By far best tonkotsu ramen in London

I love the vibe here, with the big TV screen playing J pop music from YouTube, cute store size. Service is alright, not need to pre-book. We had normal tonkotsu and spicy tonkotsu, you can choose the thickness of broth, noodle texture and spicy level. We both went for thick broth and firm noodles, I think the firm noodles were just right for me, normal texture would’ve been too soft, the rich broth is good but can get sickly if you start drinking it, and makes you very thirsty. Don’t recommend getting the ice cream mochi dessert, they are literally just little moons sliced in halves.

It was good but all the other eat tokyo locations have bento boxes and this one doesn’t so taking a star off for that. I’ll be back ton eat Tokyo but not this specific location unless they get bento boxes. The food was great and it was nice to try other things but again I went for the chicken teriyaki bento box and they didn’t have it.

The restaurant is somewhat small however all the workers are very nice and welcoming and the service is really quick it took about just under 10 minutes for the food to arrive and when you leave they bow to you which I found very respectful and the place is really clean and tidy One thing I dont however is they add on like £2-3 extra for service charge so instead of paying like £12 i ended up paying £14 which was a bit iffy but it lowkey was worth the extra because I was impressed with their quality and quantity The portions are very fulfilling and quite large as I ordered a ramen bowl and it tasted really good The staff also gave you extra toppings before your meal came (these are free of charge) so there was garlic this sweet n sour ginger flavoured thing and some mixed veg which you could add in your soup (if you prefer) but their have a wide range of foods to choose from form their menu

The ramen was a bit salty, the cod was a bit fishy, ​​and the tempura wrap was too thick. Only for Samsung

Everything here came in a very big portion! Be careful with that. Sushi and Curry are great, but the ramen here seems a bit boring and tastes like water soup, I tried 3 times with different types of soup and still tastes like water. Not recommend ramen here, but everything else is good.

Nice and cheap place to have Japanese food. Staff are friendly and efficient.

My bill was 13.9 the waitor rudely charges for 14! Paid card so wanted to make small money….Ramen too salty. Sashimi was good and fresh

reasonable price and good food, it’s worth a try nearby Bond Street.

Sashimi not fantastic Tonkotsu ramen was good

The most reliable, authentic and affordable Japanese food chain in London! This one specialises in ramen and they do it really great, the tonkotsu flavour is the standard so there are meal sets which include sides like gyozas. The gyozas are just the frozen ones you can buy at any oriental store (I know cos it tastes the exact same as the packs I buy and fry at home) so I would skip them for something better like tempura which is always very crispy and fragrant. Matcha beer was also very interesting, there’s a slight hint of matcha flavour and I enjoyed it a lot. Will definitely be returning to try the shoryu soup base ramen.

I visited for lunch. I ordered tonkotsu ramen, but it didn't taste like tonkotsu at all. Service and atmosphere are average.

I had an amazing time at Eat Tokyo! The katsu curry is amazing along with the mochi ice cream 🤍🤍 Joe

This place is brilliant. Extensive menu so caters for all needs. I’ve been a few times and went on Sunday for lunch by myself. I had yellow tail sashimi, eel unagi, cucumber maki and soft shell crab. All of it was delicious. It’s not massively expensive. Great for dates or small groups. It’s a compact place which packs a punch. It’s not as flashy as some places but the food is pretty and it’s above all else tasty. Service is good and as it’s small it’s easy to get people’s attention. Highly recommend and will 100% be going back.

Eat Tokyo Tonkotsu ya in central London transported me straight to Japan! The staff were lovely and welcoming, making the experience even more enjoyable. As a solo diner, I appreciated the privacy booths that made eating alone feel completely comfortable – a feature more restaurants should adopt. The fried pork dumplings and chicken katsu curry were outstanding, bursting with authentic flavors. A must-visit for a genuine Japanese dining experience in the heart of the city! Full 5 stars from me.

Great ramen highly recommend for the price! Fast service

They have a great range of menu options and the service was friendly and fast. We want a quick and cheap lunch so wasn’t too bad, however I have a 4 star because the prawn bao bun we ordered was not something looked like what’s shown on the menu. On the menu the prawn was katsu/tempura ebi, so was a bit disappointed about that.

Came here to grab something to eat before seeing a West End show as I didn’t want to hunt down for a good place to eat at that was miles away. Plus I didn’t want to cut it too close to show time circling around the streets. Food was all right and I thought the prices were fair. Nigiri sushi was good, but ramen was mediocre. I would prefer to have the ajitama egg with the melted yolk inside rather than a fully cooked, boiled egg. Other than that, if you want to grab something while you’re shopping in the area, then you’re in the right place.

Very noisy, not their fault. The food was good, but my aubergine was overcooked.

A hidden gem! The food was outstanding, everything was very flavourful with good prices and nice portions. We were left full and very satisfied. Shiplu was our lovely server, he was kind and attentive, always checking on us to make sure we were okay. If you visit this place you will definitely leave very full but really happy.

the waiter and waitress should be aware of serving. Water, soup, or any condiments not to dip there fingers on my water glass and Miso Soup.

In the past couple times I visited, the waiters added additional tip beyond the service charge without informing us. The additional charge was hidden in the original receipt, and when asked they told us that they decided to round up without asking us.

We tired the one that in soho, it was good. So we go to this restaurant again in other location. It is still very good. Nice place,a lot of choices and not too expensive.

The taste is relatively ordinary, but the price is affordable and I eat it often.

I've been going to eat tokyo for years but this was my first time in this branch. Tonkotsu ramen was lovely but I'm dropping a star because I wish there was an ajitsuke egg instead of a normal boiled egg! it was also very cramped

The food was delicious, as per usual (although not as good as some other branches I've been to). The staff here are... strange. They kind of seem like deer in headlights. Their awkwardness rubs off and starts to make you feel awkward, and then the whole feel of the restaurant becomes weird. Although, I do think the older, Japanese waitress is very sweet. I'll stick to other branches for the future (Golders Green and Holborn are great).

Very traditional Ramen. I loving it!

As a regular visitor to Eat Tokyo in Covent Garden, I was excited to try out their branch in Bond Street . Unfortunately, my experience fell far short of expectations. The yakisoba noodles lacked the promised seafood and were unimpressive in taste. The chicken karage was disappointingly overcooked and difficult to bite into. To top it off, the Katsu curry arrived with cold rice and a flavorless sauce. While the portions were generous and visually appealing, the quality of the food didn't match up. It's such a shame because I've always enjoyed my meals at Eat Tokyo in Covent Garden. Regrettably, I won't be returning to this branch and will stick with my usual haunt in Covent Garden.

Visited for the first time, the food was absolutely delicious and the service was great. The menu has a wide range of dishes, I ordered a Chashu Tonkotsu Ramen and a mixed tempura, the ramen was creamy and very flavourful, the mixed tempura was tasty. Cozy ambience and the service was exceptional. Would definitely come back!

So thrilled to find Negitoro-Don here.

Waited for 55 minutes and got no food. Left. They didn't care. Crammed and had to sit close to others hitting their elbows against me.

Great, delicious food! Thank you!

Preallt tasty sushi and fullenu including ramen and sushimi and sushi

Super nice Japanese food to settle my craving with an extensive menu that encompasses a wide range of items, including ramen, sashimi, sushi, tempura, gyoza and more! Would definitely recommend this place.

We took takeaway last night, after a long day of walking we came across this restaurant by chance. The welcome was really warm, we were served very quickly and everything was very, very good, for a reasonable price. Thank you for this first evening in London, we couldn't have hoped for better. Best wishes

Avoid. The fried smell that comes out of this restaurant surrounds the outside area. This can't be right.

Have been here few times and always satisfied with food, services. Staffs were nice, friendly. Tonkotsu ramen was very delicious. Chicken katsu curry’s portion size was so good. Definitely visit again.

Really nice food and service here! Various kinds of food are in reasonable prices. Definitely would recommend to friends.

Food was delicious. Environment was cozy along with friendly staff.

5* dining experience met with 2* customer service interactions. Not much needs to be expressed about the food aside from the fact it’s tasty and super delicious. However, the experience eating in the establishment was tainted by the weird and blunt interactions with staff. One staff member persistently sang out loud to the restaurant music while cleaning tables, one female staff was clearing tables and forced us to put our multiple orders on the one tiny table when it did not fit and the restaurant was empty so I could not understand why she imposed this. The waiter who took our order struggled to understand our requests and we had to repeat the order back 10 times before it was processed. In general the service was really slow amongst all staff and if it weren’t for the food being sensational I would not have a problem never going back.

Nice food, great range of variety. Price is reasonable but bit crowded

Food quality is great and as expected of the other eat tokyo's. Not sure if its becoming a new trend for all eat tokyo branches but service isn't so great and doesn't feel hospitable at all. This place also gets quite busy. Would recommend only if its the closest eat tokyo to you

Great place to grab lunch. Friendly staff, quick service, delicious eel nigiri and mixed tempura 😋

Updating my previous review. I have been in this shop many times. Unfortunately things have changed a lot. Starting from the entrance where we're no greeted neither helped to be seated even though the staff was infront of us. The food prices went up which ofcourse is normal because of the inflation but the quality went down drastically. The broth of the ramen is not the same anymore and it feels like it's thickened up with loads of corn flour. Staff - Horrible The previous staff was amazing, great, friendly and knew their customers. Now its some young kids with attitude chewing on gum when they speak to you and turn their head when you are making your order because they are bored and don't want to be there. We asked to take the service charge out and the guy made a scene infront of everyone and at the end put the service charge and made us pay it because he didn't care if we didn't want to pay it if we didn't come with a reason. It was one of my favorite restaurants in london but I'm afraid I won't be recommending it anymore... Furthermore, clean your walls and shop, they are full of stains on soup from days ago... Happy to give more information to OPs if needed. Day and time of visit 09.03 time 15.00 I'm really disappointed that this shop took the downhill

Good spot for authentic Japanese food after some shopping on Oxford Street. I would strongly recommend ordering the prawn tempura, it’s my favourite thing on the menu - super super light and crunchy batter that many restaurants can’t achieve. The sushi is also great value for money and fresh.

By far and away the least enjoyable Eat Tokyo I have been to. Rude staff who then add automatically a 20% service charge to the bill. The Ramen was ok, the sushi poor. I go to their G2 branch 3 or 4 times a month - this experience was enough to make me think twice about ever going back. AVOID

Foods here are good, especially the tonkotsu ramen and the curry rice. But the space is too narrow to sit and enjoy.

Delicious tonkotsu ramen and tempura 😋 The staffs are friendly, the ramen is authentic, prawn tempura is amazing. Free flow of the ginger pickle 😁

I’m not even sure what this dish it’s called but it’s a cold ramen with Chinese inspired flavours and oh my, oh my. It was extremely good!!

I found this Eat Tokyo and neede to try. The soba was amazing!!

Very authentic ramen (and other Japanese food)

It's a very busy place. The crowd and buzzing atmosphere add some touch. The food is excellent, the portions are big. It is a bit expensive but worth every penny.

I was here last March; the place was absolutely full (which is always a good sign). The restaurant is small and pretty tight, I ordered a Ramen, and it was delicious, has being the best Ramen I have ever eat. The prices are cheap considering it's in London. The attention was quick and smooth, definitely a most visit if you're in London.

From a tourist's opinion, the best Asian restaurant chain in London. The seafood is fresh, the food is prepared rapidly, even when the restaurant is full, the music is not too loud and the staff handle the queue to give every customer a table of the right size. There are foods for different price ranges. I highly recommend the bento boxes and do not recommend the ramen :D

Wheelchair access, great food and great company, thankyou again

Delicious and quality food, fast service, loads of variety and options. The seating can be a bit cramped for big groups. I had the tonkotsu ramen, very flavourful - I couldn't finish it as the portions are quite big, good for sharing! Tried the gyozas and yaki soba - strongly recommend both. I also had the green tea. If you're looking for a very well priced and massive meal - get the katsu curry. Only £10 and feeds two or more! The restaurant has super cozy ambience and fantastic staff.

我一个人去消费，被安排在一人桌。地方环境有点拥挤。服务员点餐没有很详细，问他要辣的汤底他却说辣的汤底价格不一样（我想说是价钱的问题吗？我是要辣的汤底呀！感觉就是瞧不起谁一样）。最后我点了拉面套餐，那汤除了鹹还是鹹就是超鹹。配上一份炸鳕鱼块儿，还真是“块儿”，炸粉多过鱼肉。

I had the (grilled) black cod bento 🍱 with eel & avocado rolls 🍣, and complementary miso soup. The bento has tofu, salad, 2 salmon rolls, rice, and the grilled cod + dipping sauce. It's really delicious. Though the rice portion is a bit much for me. The eel & avocado rolls are really good too! Dip them in soy-wasabi and feel the spicy kick! When you see the menu it can be a bit overwhelming. It has a LOT of dishes. However, when in doubt, can't go wrong with a classic bento, or some sushi. It's certainly not cheap 💸. But not crazy expensive either. You'll come out full spending £20-£30. The shop is like a long rectangle. Not too wide, but long. There are window "booth" seats for solo diners, each of which is quite spacious. It's a cozy vibe. eatTokyo has a few establishments and this one is very close to Bond Street station, so it's very convenient. It's also in the Oxford Street area so perhaps you'll want to walk off your food walking around.

Really liked the ramen once I added quite some soy sauce and pickled ginger. Loved that I could also select the chewiness/firmness of the noodles and the richness of the broth like in Ichiran! The staff was incredible attentive and hospitable, which put a bow on the experience.

Very tasty, had tonkotsu ramen spicy and standard for takeaway. May bueno

Excellent restaurant! One of the tastiest Tonkotsu Ramen I've ever had at an affordable price!! All staffs are pretty quick, and efficient, however sometimes they forget some drinks or side dishes but this is not a problem at all since the food is wonderfully prepared, fresh, and tasty! This restaurant caught my heart, therefore I come back regularly hehehe!!

I had the unfortunate experience of dining at this sushi restaurant, and it was nothing short of a disaster. First and foremost, the ambiance was dismal. the decor looked like it hadn't been updated since the 1980s. It felt more like a run-down dive bar than a respectable sushi restaurant. Now, let's talk about the sushi itself. It was a disgrace to the art of sushi-making. The rice was clumpy, and the rolls were sloppily put together. I've had better sushi from a supermarket's pre-packaged section. To make matters worse, the prices were exorbitant for the subpar quality of food and service. I left feeling utterly ripped off and unsatisfied. I could have had a much better sushi experience at a fast-food chain, and it would have cost me a fraction of what I paid here.

Great Japanese restaurant! I had ramen and it was delicious, the broth was rich and savory. One of the best ramen I've ever had. I would definitely recommend it. The waiters are kind and nice. Quite a peaceful place to dine in. I would go again.

Great service and the food is always good.

A much smaller branch, menu not as extensive as Soho or Covent Garden, but you're more likely to get a seat here without too long of a wait. This branch's emphasis is ramen, udon and soba, limited sushi is still available and should satisfy you without having to go to Soho or Covent Garden.

Located in the corner, slightly off the high street so less busier than other Eat Tokyo branches. The service was quick and friendly. Never disappointed with food and affordable price. Recommend if you are looking for authentic Japanese food in London.

Visited a few times and the food is very good and authentic. The ramen is very flavourful, the gyozas very tasty. Loved the prawns tempura, the fried octopus and the soft shell crab. Delicious. The price point is also very fair. The place is regularly busy, so I would recommend to try and book or to get ready to wait for a table. Definitely recommended and worth it.

Busy but quiet, lots of seats but enough elbow space, low key but polite and friendly service. Great ramen. Exactly what a Japanese place should be. Also v handy for Oxford Street.

Lovely place, amazing food, and staff super friendly. Thank you very much to the two lovely guys who accommodated us. We will definitely come back.

The place has an authentic vibe. Food is quite tasty. I will surely return!

A hidden gem!! Side dishes were a treat and the ramen was flavoursome! Good spot for group or solo diners!

Fried chicken is quite oily but ramen really tasty

I have been here 2 times (thinking the first time it was a one off as I have been to other Eat Tokyo and usually they are ok) and both times the service was horrible with the manager ushering us to order and quickly clearing all our plates and handing us the bill even before we really finished our food and drinks as "we weren't having dessert". The manager were also extremely rude to us the 2nd time when we left so I will never come back to this place ever again. I complained to the head office about the manager however this fell on deaf ears, no response what so ever so don't bother as they don't care at all about treating customers fairly or well. 8 years ago, Eat Tokyo used to be one of my favourite places for cheap eats and great quality food but I have felt the food quality has gone downhill since that time even at other branches such as Soho and Golders Green. It feels like its a franchise with the differences in food and service across the branches. The seating is very tight. Food was average at best, taste like any other japanese restaurant, the food next door at Chisou (although more expensive) is a lot tastier and more authentic. However having said that, the food at this restaurant wasn't the cheap either and we end up spending a decent amount of money for a below average meal and experience. Do not come here!

Visited Eat Tokyo's other restaurants for sushi but this time came for ramen. Ordered a Level 6 spicy ramen in rich tonkatsu soup. Not a bad choice. Will try a higher level of spicy ramen next time.

Great restaurant in a convenient location for a quick bite after work before taking the tubes. Fast and polite service which is a plus. Just my one pet peeve which was finding foam around the ramen broth. Would be more aesthetically pleasing if the foam was filtered out. Otherwise Eat Tokyo never lets me down with the variety of food choices and decent pricing.

Super large menu with great vegan options now

Delicious, authentic dishes from a huge menu. Top-tier Asian cuisine is served quickly. The service was wonderful, however, the young women taking care of us, despite doing amazingly, were constantly being undermined and interfered with by their male co-workers. It wasn't a particularly pleasant dynamic. This being said, their spirits remained high, and for me, it was an overall pleasant experience.

Get your tonkotsu ramen fix with chill Japanese vibes.

Excellent tonkotsu ramen, and plenty of other menu options if you don't fancy ramen.

The most authentic and delicious Japanese food in the UK

The male manager is the rudest human being i have ever met - we just finished the meal and we got told to get out (in a super rude manner) basically despite our children still drinking their juices. This place is the rudest place we have ever been and the food was mediocre at best. We emailed the head office about this and obviously it just went into a black hole - this place only cares about profit and not about its customers. Never again!!!!!!! The male manager has a serious attitude problem - a total prick

Real authentic place. The menu had what seemed like unlimited sticky pages, we were constantly pushed by people walking behind us. Doesn’t sound like 5 stars? It does. The service was incredibly friendly, the atmosphere cosy, loud and filled with people who came to enjoy good food in an authentic place. The food arrived quickly and was delicious. We are looking forward to coming back and try more from the menu.

Amazing service, portion and food We camping back again

Service was extremely slow. Dirty dishes were not removed from the table in a timely manner, even though the waiter was walking around. The waiter who took the order messed up with the amount of salads ordered and the type of the salad. The bowl with rice and salmon was chipped. Overall food was ok but I would not recommend this place.
