Solía pedir desde aquí todo el tiempo. Sin embargo, el restaurante ha cambiado de manos y, por desgracia, el nivel ha disminuido enormemente. El pescado es de muy mala calidad, los propietarios son extremadamente grosero y el restaurante no parece limpio. Recomiendo ir a otro sitio.

The whole restarant was empty on a dinner time saturday night! The food was not great, they used to have a sushi all you can eat buffet but have stopped doing that now, which was really the main reason we went, without that, it was really nothing special. The sushi was okay, not exciting, the lack of customers there tells me this restaurant is really struggling. I wouldn't say it value for money, we ordered a bento each and a starter and the total was £37 and we were both not even full. wouldn't come back, go to sushi samba, hi sushi or somewhere more central for better food, bigger portions and better location. Just don't go here, if its this quiet on a saturday night, how fresh do you think their fish is????

Abbiamo trovato questo ristorante su tripadvisor.. e abbiamo provato. Arrivati sul posto sembrava chiuso ma siamo entrati, seduti e ci ha portato il menu (senza formula all you can eat) al chè abbiamo chiesto se si poteva fare e ci ha dato un fogliaccio, penna e block notes per prenderci (da soli) l'ordinazione. Una volta ordinato abbiamo atteso 25 minuti.. la prima mandata di piatti. In compenso il sushi è molto buono. Altra pecca negativa il bagno.. tempestato di insetti.. va be.. spesa di 40£ in 2.

Abbiamo sbagliato stazione della metro che è Finchley Road e non la Central ma poi risolto il problema con il bus 82.Il locale è molto semplice ma il personale è gentilissimo.Il cibo è veramente ottimo.Molto strano il sistema delle ordinazioni... Si possono ordinare solo sei cose alla volta per tavolo...il problema è che fra la prima ordinazione e la seconda sono passati più di venti minuti... E non è che il locale fosse pieno. Ma raccomandandosi un po' le cose si sono velocizzate. Speso col sistema all You can eat una ventina di sterline a testa ma la qualità del cibo li vale tutti alla grande. Consigliatissimo!!!!!

Best sushi ever, I used to order it at least once per week. The lady from the shop is extremely nice, she was texting me to update me about any delay in the delivery or just to check if I was happy with the food. Unfortunately I moved to another area which is not covered by the shop, but please try their sushi, it is amazing. The only weak point is the delivery time, sometimes was really taking long, even 1h30: but I used to live in Wembley, so maybe this is why; once I ordered it from a friend's house in Willesden Green and they were quite quick. Anyway the waiting is totally worth!

Pedimos una cena de sushi para entrega en 7. Menú parecía estar bien, y nos costó 50 libras por nuestra familia, que parecía caro.No sé por dónde empezar!La comida llegó 25 minutos temprano. No palillos, servilletas, etc. Rollos de salmón no estaban rainbow y Estándar en vez pero tenía crabsticks avo - así que quizás explicando esta en el menú es una buena idea.Sal y pimienta agedashi tofu tanto los calamares y horrible. Y sashimi de salmón en rodajas sólo un poco más gruesos que el salmón ahumado, servido sin jengibre. El edamame estaban bien, pero difícil de desastre que. Después de un gran número de críticas de Tripadvisor finalmente le doy un bien merecido 1 estrellas!Y después de todo lo que aún tenía que disfrutarla algo para alimentar a una familia con hambre!

Locale trovato grazie a Tripadvisor.Volevamo mangiare sushi a Londra, ed essendo turisti italiani non conoscevamo i posti giusti ne avevamo voglia di spendere una follia.Abbiamo trovato questo localino un pò fuori dal centro (facilmente raggiungibile sia con la metro che con l'autobus).Il locale è piccolo ma pulitoIl personale gentile e disponibilePoca scelta di piatti ma BUONISSIMA qualità.Abbiamo trovayo posto di Sabato sera a Londra alle ore 20 prenotando il tavolo due ore primaLe uniche due pecche sono state:- locale un pò freddo (il proprietario aveva messo una stufetta "domestica" nella stanza)- addebito del 3% del totale per pagamento con carta di credito NON inglese.Tutto sommato, non conoscendo altri sushi all you can eat, e tenendo conto che andare a mangiare sushi alla carta a Londra sarebbe troppo costoso, lo consiglio vivamente.

Unacceptable delay on delivery. When I called the restaurant they would not accept any responsibility for delivery times. They then logged the order as delivered on Just Eat when it has still not been delivered; in fact the food has not even left the restaurant yet (80 minute wait so far). Frankly unacceptable when other food delivery providers adhere to a 30/40 minute delivery service level.

Cercavano un 'all you can eat' a Londra, con una voglia che ci portavamo dietro da Settembre! Soddisfatte? No molto di più: gestione semplice, cordiale e nonostante il nostro inglese maccheronico, molto chiara! Abbiamo mangiato di tutto e di più: cucinato in modo veloce, fresco e squisito. Pecca, solo, forse un po di atmosfera nipponica carente, ma volevamo mangiare sushi a Londra non visitare Tokio, quindi ci sta.

No need to write a boring review. Just read George's review underneath mine. But he forgot to add something. While I was eating some fella came out the kitchen wearing slippers.This place gives 'invisible discounts'. The groupon deal we had gave us 30 basic pieces of sushi. When I say basic I mean 90% chunky pieces of sticky rice with a tiny bit of crabstick that you find down your local Iceland which costs 12 sticks for a quid. (I bought some the other day).The rest was salmon on or on top of the rice. Nothing like the photo that they appears on their add. If you go Wasabi or Itsu you can get 28 pieces for £16. Same price as Koi but tastes much better without the trek to North London and you can eat it in the comfort of your gaff, not the library as Wassouf said

Firstly, the 'staff' only consists of one woman who is constantly putting you on hold to answer the phone or interrupting you to do other tasks. It's a joke.The decor is dated, dirty tables which haven't been cleaned with dirty plates and cutlery on them. It's super quiet like a library, the atmosphere is dead. The food isn't that bad - they did however serve my coke from a multi pack can which clearly states 'not for individual sale' but hey ho. My whole dining experience wasn't all that and I don't think I will be visiting this place again.

Unfortunately my review cannot be positive at all. I made my order at 16.30 because I was going to have guests and I wanted to be sure to be on time. So I made the order for delivery at 19 pm. I have never tried this sushi before but sushi is my favorite thing on earth so I am very picky about it, means I am so into it... And obsessed about sushi. Quality is of course important but I can close my eyes if the price is good compared to the quality. First of all the order came more than 30' late... They said they had issues with the previous order; also they came with the car from Finchley Road... We are in holland park... It is a long drive!!! Don't accept orders if you can't manage them...!!! We were starving and my guests disappointed; thank God I have other things cooked... Also I have to say we weren't impressed with the quality: ride was very sticky and fish didn't seem very fresh. I have to say I am happy I have used the 30% discount offer, otherwise I won't be this kind but very vey angry and upset. At least one thing went smoothly. Will never order again I am afraid. :(((

I am so dissapointed. Restaurant wrongly marked bags so i havent recived half of my order which was all hot food. What i got was a sushi luckly, but as i realised hard to call it appetasing in a condition i recived it. Unrolling maki's, amount of ginger and wasabi attached was a joke.Chirashi salad is a few pieces of mix leaves and saschimi which was looking like a leftovers from somebodys salad. After my phone call they send driver back with missing food, unfortunattely all hot food was covered with a sauce from leeking containers so i had to return it. After another phone call they were not able to offer me new food anymore due to rush time inside the restaurant which i understand, but i end up without money and food, because even after refunding my missing dishes lady on the phone was not able to provide any specific time when i can recive it back. Upseting fact the i felt like insted off finding solution she wanted only to finish call without even checking what i wanted to say. After half an hour i recived a next call from restaurant, same Lady Sofi said that they can make my order now and deliver it to me in 25 minutes. I agreed since there was no choice really. Food arrived after 30 min. Packed promptly this time however i found out that chicken katsu was raw inside. I gave up and ate the rice with quite blunt sauce meant to be for it. Nobody call neither to check if order is fine like they washed hands...Thank You Koi Sushi for that amazing experience

Excellent, subtle ramen very conveniently located for those awaiting a train at St Pancras. I was less impressed by the boa the restaurant is named for: enjoyable but not really worth the price. 5* secured by a superb, in-house dark beer that suited the beef perfectly.

We came across this Korean restaurant in the Holborn area just as our stomachs started growling after a full day of sightseeing. Accessed by a staircase at street level, the restaurant occupied the basement of the building above. Our initial impressions were good, helped no doubt by the slightly dim lighting which offered a touch of anticipation. Alas, the food did not quite meet up with our lofty expectations. Don't get me wrong - it was quite tasty, and Korean food is usually deceptively filling. Between the four of us, we had several stews, and hot plates of chicken and beef, all of which came with an accompaniment of unpolished rice (a nice healthier touch). Although reasonably satisfying, the food wasn't going too much to write home about. Service was average at best, and prices were a little on the high side for the size of the portions, but then, restaurant prices in London are on the high side in general.

The food was nice but nothing more. We didn't feel full up anc went over to macdonalds and had a quick burger. Portions small for price and lacked flavour. China town or bang bangs better tastier food in my opinion. Service was good although we did have to ask twice for a couple of things.
