Food might be good but one staff member is beyond rude and frankly racist (she has a mole on her face so is hard to miss). Was rudely told to ‘move from the door as I’m not a bouncer’ even though I was waiting for an order in the designated area for takeaways. Needless to say I won’t be returning.

Arrived at 620pm for my 630pm booking, we were shown to the basement table of which I had no issues with. We were given a table right by the toilet, I then asked the waitress could we possibly sit at the end table, slight away from the toilet, she replied, no it was reserved. I didn't think of it much as it could well be the case. Sat down, another waiter came, no greetings, he just put down 3 very dirty menu on our table then off he went back upstairs. We all looked at each other thought, its going to be an interesting dinner. I wipe cleaned the menu and obviously none of them have been cleaned for a while, see picture uploaded. The same waiter returned to take our order and I mentioned the dirty menu and shown the dirty wipes, no apologies he just laughed it off.....I made no further remarks, and just crack on with our order. We ordered a few starters to share and main each and I specifically asked for the main to be served after we finish the starters, thought reasonable request right? Hell no, all our dishes came at once....once again my husband and I just looked at each other. Food was very mediocre, not worth raving about. And wait for the best part, the waiter came to clear up our plates with a tray, and he signalled us to put our plates onto his tray...we sat down at 625pm and by 730pm we couldn't wait to get out from this restaurant. And guess what the entire time we were the only table in the basement. Poor hygiene, poor service, there are plenty plenty Japanese restaurants to choose in the West End Soho area,and can give you a better dinning experience, do me a favour you can give this one a miss!

We ran into this little place by mistake but it turned out to be a great little Japanese restaurant. The fish was fresh and by London standard this is not that expensive. The tempura was done well but the udon was a bit too salty. Otherwise, the dinner was great.

Came here for a pre-party drink and snack with my colleague last night. Very small, only four or five tables but I love that vibe! Beautiful authentic food. We had a salmon hand roll and soft shell crab sushi. Very very enjoyable. This with two asahi’s was near £40 which is steep but for the food and venue, I would come back here again. They had lots of choice on the menu, so lots to try out!

My husband and I visited Nala for the first time two weeks ago. We found everything delicious, especially the sushi and the prawn gyoza. We tried to come back last week, but the place was full! Today, we were lucky and get one of the 7 tables in the restaurant. We ordered the prawn tempura, the prawn tempura roll, the prawn gyoza and the nigiri mix. All as delicious as before. This place is a gem. Well worth the visit.

Feels like a really family run diner and just like something you'd experience in Japan.

We passed by on Monday and it was packed. Last night of freedom ahead of lockdown, we decided to go there. We managed to get a table, it was fully booked but there was an hour window so we sat and the host was very friendly and gave us the menu. So many dishes to choose from! Everything came quickly and it was super fresh! Best sushi I have ever had! We chose: avocado maki (so fresh), wakame salad; vegetable gyoza ( so tasty and soft); octopus balls and beef don. Looking forward for the lockdown to end to go back! Highly recommended!

Acabamos de encontrar este lugar caminando. Necesitábamos un lugar tranquilo pero no muerto con buena calidad: cumplía todos los requisitos.Nos sentamos afuera en su mesita y cuando no había espacio suficiente para toda la comida, la señorita trajo la otra mesita. Ella fue tan dulce, que incluso sugirió no pedir algo, ya que se suponía que era de cortesía (en realidad no lo recibimos al final, pero realmente no importaba, habíamos pedido MUCHO).La calidad de la comida fue excelente y el servicio impecable con buen humor. El mejor plato fueron los huevos de salmón, seguidos muy de cerca por el tofu frito (delicado y sabroso). Tomamos un sake grande y comimos mucha comida, por lo que la factura final de 90 por dos era comprensible.Esperamos volver.Gracias

Nos sentamos en solo 1 de las 2 mesas que estaban fuera del pequeño restaurante pintoresco. Antes de que nos sirvieran, nos leyeron la temperatura y nos dieron toallitas con alcohol. Había una buena selección de sushi y comida tradicional japonesa, incluidas cajas bento. Pedí el pollo teridón y mi novia pidió el tofu teridón, y pedimos un lado de tempura de verduras (no hay una mala selección de opciones vegetarianas). Las raciones eran bastante abundantes y sabrosas y nos sorprendió que nos dieran una sopa de miso y una ensalada cada una. ¡Más un par de rodajas de naranja después de la comida! Definitivamente estaremos visitando aquí nuevamente. La factura llegó a 38, que incluía 12. 5% de cargo por servicio (3 redes).

Muy mal servicio. Éramos dos, pedimos un entrante para compartir, un plato principal cada uno con una sopa de miso, dos copas de vino para mí y cerveza para mi amigo y luego té. Trajeron la factura sin solicitud cuando ni siquiera me terminé la comida. Luego trajeron la cuenta cuando mi amiga todavía tenía la mitad de su cerveza. Luego pedimos té porque los postres del menú no estaban disponibles. Después de que apenas terminamos el té, trajeron la cuenta y dijeron que estaban cerrando. Sin embargo, no se lo dijeron a las personas en otras mesas. Tres mesas estaban vacías. Cuando pagamos, el dueño salió y comenzó a gritar que éramos los peores clientes, que nos quedamos por 3 horas y no pedimos nada más que té. Literalmente nos echó. No rompimos nada, no gritamos, no hicimos nada excepto hablar y comer. Sí, fueron exactamente 3 horas, pero no había cola fuera del restaurante.

Nice well presented food, polite and friendly staff. The meal is well portioned and traditional, if you like traditional japanese sushi/sashimi.

Glad we never read any of the reviews on here before we went! Stunned by the previous reviews! The food was absolutely exceptional. It's not cheap but then it's not that expensive either! We had edamame to start, with another dish with seaweed to start(Sorry forgotten the name). The edamame is with seal salt and nice sized portion for two. The seaweed dish was superb. Had a mixed sushi for main course between us and every one was a delight. Then had the mixed tempura, with veg, prawn and fish. Just superb.The service was so polite and nice, I'm really surprised to read previous reviews. We were never rushed at all. Maybe new owners.Trust us , we will absolutely be back. Lovely little place with a handful of tables. Really felt like we were back in Japan.

Nos dijeron que otros clientes estaban esperando. No nos dieron la oportunidad de pedir más comida, que fue decepcionante y muy desagradable.

We came here starving for a late dinner. It was close to 10:00pm but they welcomed us warmly. We placed our orders and the service was fairly quick. They didn’t rush us at all. They have a wide range of options - our group got kimchi pancakes, bibimbamp, ramen and bento box. The food was good and we were happy with our hearty meal after a long day! The main floor is pretty tight on space but they have a few tables outside and additional seating in the basement. We'd recommend you try it.

I was also surprised at how cheap it was here compared to others, for 2 mains (tonkatsu donburi and chicken katsu curry both came with miso soup) and a coke we paid £24 (also includes 12% service charge) which is not too bad especially with the portion that came with it.

We were looking around for a restaurant to have dinner and we chanced upon Lingo. The restaurant looks cosy but it quite small, we decided to have a try - and it proved to be a good decision !A group of Japanese ladies was having dinner when we came in - which is always a good sign. After all, say, a French restaurant where French people actually go is more likely to be good than one where they don't go !The food and service at Lingo are good. The food is Japanese and Korean and it gives full satisfaction. Special recommendations : the Unaju Don and the Seafood Pancake (dip it in the sauce, even better), delicious ! The seaweed salad is equally very good.

Very large food choice if you stay in, not only Japanese (super good bibimbap for example), but not many tables so come early (seating downstairs available, but not so charming). Food is generally very good, staff very nice, prices really reasonable. We often take away, the menu here is much simpler but very good options too. It is a simple place, there are many other trendy Japanese in Soho but usually more expensive too, so Lingo is a really good option.

We were starving and the food came quite quickly, but the complementary salad sufficed in the meantime. Food was really delicious - we had vegetable gyoza, tuna sushi rolls, beef don buri and a korean dish. The beef was particularly amazing, really tender and perfectly cooked.

Ci siamo sentiti coccolati, ambiente piccolo ma silenzioso, camerieri disponibilissimi, oltre a quello che abbiamo ordinato c'erano tante cosine in più, non sul listino. Prezzo conveniente (sulle 17 sterline a testa, con dolci e mangiando a sazietà) è molto vicino a Piccadilly. Ottimo!

Lingo is one of those place where you could sit in a cozy area watch the cook prepare your sushi and enjoy all this and a good meal at a very reasonable price in soho. I always come back when I feel like eating sushi. Just a couple of notes:- they tend to put a bit of wasabi between the fish and the rice in sushi. - the place downstairs can get a bit hot- in the summer they tend to put tables outside

We tried Lingo for our evening meal this last Friday after deciding on Japanese food. I had walked past this cute little restaurant earlier and thought we would give it a try. Good welcome and quickly seated with menus and ordered drinks. The menu is quite large and we didn't want a huge meal, so we settled for a bowl of miso soup each, and prawn and vegetable dumplings to start, which arrived quite quickly and were pronounced good. They were accompanied by a complimentary small salad which was a pleasant surprise. My partner chose an avocado and shrimp sushi roll which tasted quite nice, I had a pork Dom buri - a rice bowl dish, which was pleasant but way too much rice. We didn't try any deserts and called for the bill, which came with the customary 10% gratuity, which we paid and left. I think Lingo is quite a good place to get your Japanese fix but will need to visit again and try different selections before I can fully recommend.

High quality Japanese food as serve in Japan. Sushi is fresh and well made. Welcoming place with a fair and descent price.

Used to be our favourite sushi place in london for a couple of years until owners changed sometime this spring.The table setting, menu, pricing etc stayed the same but the quality of the fish changed dramativally overnight.Too bad. We have nothing against the staff which did their best to be as good as the previous group but whoever buys the fish thought the diners wouldn't notice the change.Sloppy thinking. You lost our bi weekly business. Had to find new places in london to replace our dear old Lingo (RIP) (found a few )

Originally we were planning to go to Ittenbari on Brewer Street but it looked shabby from the outside so we came here instead.It's a small, cute little place - I think it had extra tables downstairs too. There's lots on the menu to choose from, the prices are okay and the staff are so friendly. We shared two sushi rolls: a salmon one (delicious) and a crab one (average). Then we shared sashimi and then beef with steamed rice and a fried egg. After drinks the bill came to £50.. I guess not too bad for the centre of London.

Sushi not fresh. Taste gloppy. The best thing on the plate was the wasabi. Also the prawn gyoza was not fried. More like steamed and pretty poor. Chicken gyoza had no discernible chicken in it. Needless to say won't be returning. Service was also so good we got the bill before we asked for it!

Food was so so and the portions were small and prices not cheap. Seafood was not fresh. Both the nearby "Ten Ten Tei" and "Taro" restaurants are much tastier and better value for money.

Went there at lunchtime with a friend and ordered ramen each. Ramen was fairly tasteless and average.Pretty sure the broth is made with seafood so should not say suitable for vegetarians on the menu.Then when settling up, was forced to pay the full 10% service charge, whether it is warranted or not.So to summarise, average food, misleading menu and they rip you off! Avoid

This was not a planned visit and we stumbled upon this place when looking for a Japanese restaurant. The staff was friendly, with a cosy setting, albeit a little bit crowded.We ordered spicy tuna maki rolls, which were delicious. The portions of the main were very large as well.Overall , a decent place to eat if one is on a budget.

i've been there with my bro who recommended me some of their fine dishes. it was quite fine to be honest with a very friendly staff and a nice spot to stay although it is quite small and kind of stuffed if it's crawded. after all we enjoyed the food and it was fun to try, i personally think it's not going to be my last visit.

Tried a lunch time takeaway a few weeks ago and felt a little let down by the portion sizes. Gave them another chance and it was even worse. £7 for Chicken Yakisoba. Dish half empty and with 2 tiny bits of chicken. Accompanying Miso Soup also half empty and had 2 tiny pieces of tofuBoth tasted OK but completely unacceptable.

イギリス人の友達から勧められたので、和食を食べ尽くしている美食家で料理好きの友人と行きました。かわいいお店でスタッフの方々はとても親切フレンドリーでいい感じです。が、大変残念ながら、このお寿司は最低です。セットで18ポンド、見た目にもカラカラに乾いていました。私はサーモンだけいただきましたが魚臭くて、まだ某テイクアウトの店の方がましです。ラーメンに関しても一口スープを食べてやめました。ラーメンは仕方ないけれど、和食屋ならばせめてお寿司はまともなものを期待したいです。その他の前菜ものはおいしかったので、そういったものを注文するか、もしくはどんぶりものならおいしいのかもしれません。

We were refused entry for a pre dinner drink as our 15yo daughter was with us and were left to wait on the street for 30 minutes until our table was ready. Good restaurants accommodate people in this situation. The service was average and unenthusiastic. The quality of the T bone steak and black cod was poor, sushi was good. This place has high notions about itself but fails to deliver. Exorbitant prices for very average service and food. Would definitely not recommend

Amazing food as always. Service was great but feels like could be made better with attentiveness and better order taking process. Love the terrace and the setting on a sunny day, can’t wait for it to open indoor.
