Después de pasar por delante muchas veces a lo largo de los años, siempre significa intentarlo un día. Finalmente lo hicimos. Ojalá hubiéramos seguido caminando. Decoración del restaurante bien, el personal todo agradable aunque ligera barrera lingüística. Pretenden abastecerse de una oferta sin gluten pero pobre. Una opción de caja bento, además de otros dos platos de todo el menú. La caja de bento que tuve echa de menos la verdura tempura y el único sustituto es más arroz o más ensalada que es solo un poco de lechuga iceberg con tira de pimienta y cebolla. Opté por arroz extra en mi caja de pollo bento y tanto el arroz como el pollo estaban fríos. No estaba seguro de si era cómo estaba destinado a ser servido, cuestionado en la caja y aconsejado que estaba destinado a ser caliente, así que no solo estoy preocupado ahora por la intoxicación alimentaria, también estoy molesto por pagar £ 16. 99 para la caja de Bento que era peor que la media. El miembro del personal ofreció una disculpa leve y dijo que aconsejaría cocina y me dio un 10% de descuento en mi comida que solo tomó poco más de £ 3 de la cuenta, así que todavía pagando alrededor de £ 13. 50 para una ofrenda fría y pobre. Ojalá hubiéramos hecho la sala de comidas en el mercado de Leeds.

Comida promedio. Tenía entrante mixto que parecía y sabía como una bolsa de aperitivos japoneses comprados en la tienda acababa de ser frito. Los fideos eran agradables para la principal. El servicio era muy amable, pero principal fue traído muy rápido, así que me sentí apresurado.

Went for the first time so wasn’t sure what to expect. Had been told it was lovely. Must have changed hands since because the place was ok but not the most welcoming. The waitress was nice and polite. It was very cold inside. They have a fish pond inside that looked a bit dull with murky water. That wasn’t a good sign. My friend and I placed our order and it was served within ten minutes. Chicken and noodles with their own specially made curry sauce. Wasn’t impressed with the look and it tasted how it looked but was served on a cold plate meaning by the time I got half way through it was all cold. I even had to put my coat back on. A waste of £60 really but I guess you don’t know if you don’t try. However I won’t be trying there again.

Pasé por primera vez, de admirar la decoración del restaurante y la cocina. Me temo que fue una verdadera decepción. Me encanta el puente y la característica de pescado. El restaurante estaba prácticamente vacío. Nos sentamos junto a la puerta para facilitar el servicio del personal. Caminé hacia el otro lado del restaurante a través del puente, pensando que los baños estaban por ahí. Fue una verdadera pena que no estuviéramos sentados de ese lado, por el tema principal y el ambiente del restaurante. Sabía desde este punto, que el servicio iba a ser promedio debido a esta falta de detalles de los asientos. La comida era básica y carecía de sabor por desgracia. No es agradable. Los titulares fueron mejores que los principales. Fue una pena, como habíamos estado queriendo ir por un tiempo. El servicio era limitado y básico. Un ejemplo de nuestros platos de entrada se dejaron en la mesa que nos trajeron nuestro plato principal y nadie se registró en ningún momento. Lamentablemente, incluso tuvimos que pedir la factura. Con todo 👎🏻

I have to give you a good review because of this lovey ramen! Highly recommend seafood ramen. I’m a semi-vegetarian and I don’t eat any land meat but only seafood. Therefore I have tried many Japanese restaurants and ramen places. And I have to be honest, it’s a very reasonable price you get many varieties of different seafood and vegetables. And it tastes really good 👍 I short stay in Leeds today and will come back once visiting this city again.

This was truly one of the worst dining experiences I have had in Leeds. It was meant to be a dinner for a special occasion, but as soon as we arrived it went downhill. The restaurant fumbled the reservation so we ended up being tucked away and forgotten about by. our server most of the night. We ordered a variety of stuff, and to be fair, the gyoza and chicken karage was alright. However, it took 30 minutes to get our drinks, and we had almost finished our food by the time they arrived. Then, the sushi was very fishy and of poor quality. I think we ate 1/4 of it and left the rest. To make matters worse, the servers walked past our table multiple times and just looked at the uneaten food without asking if there was something wrong. By the end I was ready to just pay and leave, which ended up costing far too much for a very forgettable meal. Safe to say this will be my first and last time at this establishment. Very, very disappointed. Would not recommend.

I have been going to Little Tokyo for years but hadn’t been for a while. Firstly we had to ask someone to take our order as nobody came to us. I usually have chicken teriyaki bento box which has always been lovely but it arrived very quickly & some of the chicken wasn’t cooked properly & still raw & some of the batter on the tempura wasn’t cooked & stodgy! Definitely not the experience I usually have!! Very disappointing & not sure I’ll be back!

I had been here years ago and enjoyed it so I wanted to repeat. Little Tokyo is a cosy restaurant tucked away on a side street in Leeds city centre. As you enter there is a bar and I was quickly greeted by the friendly staff and guided to my seat. The decor is really nice, there's cherry blossom trees, a bridge with a koi pond and nice rustic wood tables and chairs. After I was seated I had a look through the menu and decided on the tempura seafood platter and seafood ramen. I was asked if I wanted everything at the same time and I was surprised at how fast everything was prepared and brought to my table. The presentation was great. The seafood tempura was lovely and crispy and consisted of a small octopus, fish, prawns and mussels. For a side dish, both the price and the portion size were excellent at 8.99. The seafood ramen was very tasty - king prawns, mussels, fish balls, squid and octopus. They didn't skimp on the seafood and the portion was more than adequate. I wasn't able to finish everything, though I tried my hardest as I really didn't want to waste great food. I also liked the authenticity of the restaurant. I was given chopsticks and no knife and fork - which is absolutely fine for me. I'm sure you could ask if this was something that bothers you. The staff are so welcoming and polite and the atmosphere is really relaxed and comfortable. I had a long island ice tea along with my meal which I also really enjoyed. This is hands down the nicest Japanese restaurant in Leeds and I will certainly return once again. Thank you.

Ordered chicken ramen and I was truly disappointed, no authentic flavours, just some chicken and pieces of vegetables cut into random pieces thrown into a bowl of plain broth. The food was cold, microwaved with no quality for ingredients.

The staff are friendly and clearly work hard. Love the look and atmosphere at this restaurant. However, after my visit today, I’m sad to say that the quality of the food has gone down in comparison to my previous visits. Sashimi didn’t seem as fresh and a few items seemed like they came from frozen. A real shame, as this used to be one of my favourite restaurants in Leeds.

Because one of our kids has a newfound love of sushi, we've been looking forward to returning to Little Tokyo for some time. I'm really torn writing this review because LT has been there as long as I remember, and we have enjoyed many special occasions here. The staff were lovely, and the restaurant has retained the shabby chic atmosphere and deco we fondly remember (we love this but I remember thinking 10 years ago, a lick of paint wouldn't go amiss - perhaps it's time)! On to the food: Between us, we ordered a good selection. A Katsu Bento box, teriyaki bao buns, gyoza, soft shell crab, and nigiri. I would say the bento box and soft shell crab were the more successful dishes. The gyoza was a little cool, and the sashimi didn't quite live up to what we'dhad before. Also,he bao buns could do to be a little lighter. Don't get me wrong. Nothing was bad enough to complain... it just didn't live up to our amazing memories of this venue. We're willing LT to do well. Some little tweaks would make the world of difference. The other thing that would be nice to see, would be a broader selection of wines. I've given 4*'s... perhaps 3 would be a better reflection of my experience.

On arrival we were asked if we have a reservation, we didn't and they were quiet but the lady still rolled her eyes. Anyways food is great, if I was to come again I'd probably book a table over the bridge, we got seated at the entrance and there are no barriers between, so I was basically touching a stranger, which made me feel uncomfortable.

Fuimos para nuestra comida de aniversario y se quedó muy decepcionado con la comida. Los 4 platos salieron en menos de 10 minutos, lo que fue una bandera roja, el ramen era insípido con pocas verduras, las verduras que estaban allí todavía estaban duras y sin cocinar y el aspecto de "chile" era un poco de chile en polvo arrojado en la parte superior del ramen estándar. Dejó la mayoría, ya que era esencialmente fideos en agua sin sabor, muy decepcionante.

This place is a disaster. The food was awful, bland, and barely edible. To make matters worse, I saw a huge rat inside, which tells you all you need to know about their hygiene.On top of that, it’s outrageously expensive for such badly prepared food. They’re scamming people by exploiting the appeal of "Japanese" cuisine, but it’s a disgrace to the culture.This place should just shut down. It’s a one-star dump pretending to be a four-star restaurant. Maybe it was good once, but now it’s horrendous. Even the lighting is terrible, straining your eyes and making the experience even more unpleasant. Disgusting and completely unacceptable.

Really gone downhill and doubt any of the food is actually vegetarian Terrible experience, my partner and I both ordered the king prawn fry bento box and sushi buttons. The prawns were overcooked and rubbery, not to mention somehow still smelt fishy (not a great sign and both of our stomachs has been acting up). The vegetable tempura was undercooked and under the outer layer, the tempura batter was completely raw. Not to mention, I found a piece of fish tempura mixed into my vegetable tempura (red flag). The salad was wilted and no attempt at consistent cutting, just huge thumb size chunks of cucumber, red onion etc. The sushi buttons which are absolutely advertised as vegetarian had a piece of fishy tasting tempura stuck to one of them (you could see meaty fibers stuck to it), so I can only suspect all deep fried meats and vegetables are fried in the same oil.

You know what I usually love it here I have been going to this place for 15+ years. We were sat in a booth and I feel we just were forgotten about. My wife had to go up and actually ask to order some desert as there was nobody around to take our order or get us another drink that we wanted . We only got starters and it was still nearly £60. I don't mind paying for good food at all but it was Luke warm and not amazing and as good as usual. I have come home feeling a little sick also. Really disappointed as honestly I usually love it here. Don't think I would go back after tonight and that's a real shame !

Went in at lunchtime on a Sunday and got sat right next to the fish pod that stunk of fish as you can imagine and put me off my food. Thankfully the food was disgusting so the fishy smell didn’t matter in the end. Ordered chicken yaki udon and was saltier than the ocean and the chicken was rock solid. My partner ordered the rib bento box which was £15 for 4 chewy microwaved ribs that were inedible and some deep fried runner beans, the food came out 5 minutes after we ordered it so was not fresh in the slightest. Also paid £7 for 2 diet cokes! Absolutely abysmal food quality please avoid at all costs! The front of house staff were so lovely and this is no reflection on them as it’s not within their control. They seriously need to get a new chef and get rid of the fish pond in the middle of the restaurant or better yet just close down altogether:)

We were greeted and sat down quickly by a friendly waitress but then didn't return to take our orders and kinda just forgot about us even though the restaurant was really quiet when we arrived and we were sat close to the main entrance. I was about to leave the table to ask if someone could take our orders before thankfully another waitress noticed us waiting and came over. She then had to scold the other waitress and tell her to start taking orders for other customers who were still waiting. A couple who arrived after us were waiting about 15 minutes, before they got up and left frustrated because no one came. I don't think they even noticed that they'd left. No one really seems to be actively looking to see if anyone needs anything, and were often just chatting at the bar. We ordered the same starter, but one was required to be gluten free which wasn't an issue at all, however when they arrived they didn't specify which one was gluten free so we were a bit anxious about that. The sake was great, but we got the bento boxes for the main which were kinda just okay, not worth how expensive they are in my opinion. I've been here a few times before and the food has been great but I left feeling a little bit disappointed this time.

This used to be my favourite restaurant. We chose to celebrate a special occasion here. Sadly we’ve found the quality of food; drinks and service has declined recently. Our large starters were served with our main meals at the same time - odd. I asked staff to take the mains back to keep them warm - they returned cold. Felt very rushed, despite pre booking for a table for a 90minute slot. We left within 50 minutes, won’t be returning.

Well, I've been to Little Tokyo many times, starting around 15 years ago, although this was my first return visit in about 3 years. I was surprised to see very little had changed. The exterior and interior are themed to enhance the Japanese experience, including an indoor pool with koi carp, and Japanese music playing in the background. Service was generally good, although the person that served us didn't seem very happy or engaged. The menu hadn't changed much and included some of our favorites from previous visits. The food was a little underwhelming. It just wasn't as good as we remembered. The flavours were good but the quality seems to have declined.

This is the first time I have visited Little Tokyo Restaurant in Leeds. This restaurant uses very good raw materials. The beef comes from a local farm in Yorkshire and the fish is sourced fresh daily from a local fish market. What I particularly like is the homemade ice cream. The ice bowl was made from ice cubes, very special and beautiful. I really enjoy eating at this restaurant with my wife. And it's probably the best restaurant in Leeds I'd say.

I visited Little Tokyo today, and I had a great time! The shop was unique, offering everything from Japanese snacks to handmade crafts. I ate at a sushi restaurant where the food was fresh and delicious—definitely try the chicken katsu and Ebi Katsu if you go. The area was a bit crowded, but it added to the lively atmosphere. The person who served our table named Laminn, was friendly and we satisfied his service. Overall, a wonderful place to experience a bit of Japan without leaving the city. I’ll be coming back soon.

Absolutely disgusting food and filthy place covered with dust and filth everywhere. All of the tables are sticky with previous customers food all dried up /mouldy and stuck in the cracks of the wood. We visited Little Tokyo last month and all four of us ended up being food poisoned for the entire week! We were vomiting and had diarrhoea and had to take time off work. Tried to call them but they never bothered to pick up the phone. We checked the health and hygiene ratings after we got food poisoned and found out they had a 1 star food and hygiene which is absolutely disgusting. How can a place still open when they have a 1 star hygiene rating???????? This place needs to shut down ASAP. DO NOT VISIT unless you want to eat disgusting dirty food at rip off prices. You are best off elsewhere and it will save you the trip to the hospital. Worst "Japanese" restaurant in Leeds by far.

I used to come here a lot. It used be really good and one of few Japanese places with sushi. However, the quality of food massively downgraded. Ordered rainbow sushi roll and the fish was so smelly that it was hard to eat it. The ebi tempura is not a fresh prawn but rather a prawn. We also had unagi don - charcoal eal. The eal was overcooked and soaked in too much soy sauce. Really, the japanese food is better in Wasabi rather this place. Save some money and go somewhere nicer.

I visited this restaurant with high expectations, but unfortunately, it fell short. The food quality didn't meet my standards, and I found it lacking. However, what truly disappointed me was the service aspect. As someone uncomfortable with chopsticks, I requested forks to enjoy my meal. Despite asking three times, it took a considerable effort to finally receive the cutlery. While I respect the tradition of using chopsticks, it's essential for all customers to be served equally.

Having visited Little Tokyo many times when it first opened in Leeds, we were excited to go back. We were waiting at the door for around 5 minutes before we were even acknowledged. It was off putting to see the sushi chef shouting at another colleague and the staff looked stressed and rushed. Considering it was probably over 10 years since our last visit, the decor hadn't changed at all and was looking shabby, and when we eventually sat down the menu looked the same too. The service was incredibly slow, the food arrived before the drinks too. My husband had a teriyaki salmon bento box, the fish was underdone. My prawn bento was ok, but lacked the flavour that we remembered from last time, and the tempura was greasy. We wanted a dessert but after waiting for over 15 minutes to order, we decided to leave. Sadly, we won't be back, shame because we used to love eating there.

Comment aside, service was top notch however, this is a decent restaurant for overpriced and highly-fusioned Japanese food.

This was honestly the worst Japanese food I’ve ever had. Absolutely appalling! The fish was far from fresh & the tempura was overcooked & done so in old oil which made it taste even worse. We had to send most of our dishes back for a refund & my friend fell ill afterwards which completely ruined the evening. I do have to say though that our waitress was great. Very professional, courteous & attentive. Lastly, the restaurant is in desperate need of a good clean & a change of chef & possibly management too. Sadly we will not be back.

great food and came quickly but the service could’ve been better. despite this, i enjoyed the wide variety of food options especially as my partner cannot eat certain foods.

Come with my friends. Little Tokyo has a big menu with different kind of dishes. We try some of them. Not authentic enough for my friend, but overall food is pretty good in my opinion, staff service is nice and welcome. Will come another day to try different dishes

Love the food and atmosphere. Don't forget the homemade drinks and ice bowl ice cream, I was so amazed. A bit busy but the service was great. On a trip otherwise would love to come back.

My friend and I met for lunch in Leeds and stumbled on Little Tokyo by chance. We were met warmly by a delightful waitress. We each ordered Taki Soba, a delicious vegetarian dish - tofu stir-fried with wheat noodles and lots of different vegetables. Very good value at £11.49 plus a decent bottle of white wine at around £22. We will certainly return on our next trip to Leeds.

What a superb place. My sister has been to Japan and said it was very authentic. My 10year nephew had this as his birthday treat meal. We left no scraps. Food A M A Z I N G

Such a beautiful restaurant! The layout and uniforms are great, excellent atmosphere and good prices. Service was awful, we ordered drinks, starters and a main meal each. They brought the starter out first, then one of the main meals during the middle of the starter and we had to ask again for our drinks, which finally arrived after all the food ? We would still go back and try again though as it was such a nice atmosphere.

This is a cute little place with great food, the best sushi and bento I have had in West Yorkshire. They have a lovely little koi pond in the middle of the restaurant, great food, great atmosphere

Are here a few days ago with my wife and kids. Decent location. Decor interesting with the koi fish and torii, although could do with a spring clean and lick of paint. Staff were fine. Set lunch menu was reasonable in terms of price but the soft drinks we ordered were small and over-priced. An absolute rip off (over £3 for a small glass circa 330ml). Food was ok. Not the best Japanese we have had (we have been to Japan so admittedly have high expectations but the wife does a better Katsu curry) and the chicken was a bit on the tough side. Wouldn’t not eat here again but I do think improvements need to be made as its average at best.

👤The staff were super friendly and welcoming. I had to use the toilet as my food was ready so they offered to put it under the hot plate to keep it warm for me, very accommodating. ⏱️Service was quick and I had a pleasant dining experience 💰10-15/pp. I paid £12.60 for my whole meal as they had an offer for free bubble tea with any main meal. ✅Food was lovely and tasted fresh. ❤️ Would definitely visit again :)

Popped in here on our way back from Manchester (to Newcastle) as I was craving something spicy. Food was good, especially the wok fried greens and firecracker tofu. They do let you know that all the food will come out as it's ready rather than starters then mains and while normally I don't mind this, my partner's main came out about 8 minutes before mine, by which time he was almost done. And one of our small plates (bao buns) arrived when we'd both pretty much finished everything. Made it kind of a disjointed meal. The waitress also started to take some of our empty plates away while I was still eating which is a bit of a peeve of mine, but just personal preference.
