Very lovely local place with tasty food definitly recommended😁

Roast duck bento was too good 🥰

Food was amazing, service was lovely, great place. Will definitely come again!

Proper authentic Japanese food and dining. Will be back again. Great service too! Lots of chicken items halal the severs will point to what is and isn't halal.

The food is gorgeous with amazing portions. Option to bring food home.

Always have an amazing time when we come to Miso , incredible food incredible service

Food was amazing wish I could give a higher rating for these guys

Good food , very good service, worth a visit

Came for a date night for me and my girlfriend and had a fantastic time. The lady who served who us extremely friendly and welcoming, the food was absolutely delicious and cooked to perfection. I can’t recommend Miso enough for the authentic Japanese experience and can’t wait to return.

Amazing Ramen and sushi. The lady was surprised we finished so quick (that good)

Brilliant night! Great service! Good food! Staff were polite and great at recommending dishes.

A great place for sushi and great staff! Would recommend to anyone who’s thinking about !

Don’t be put off by the lack of curb appeal. We had a great meal here with very good food, friendly service and good value for money.

Never disappointed when I dine at miso. Amazing food and lovely staff. Looking forward to my next visit. I need more takoyaki in my life

Just had a lovely walk-in experience at Miso. We are local to the area and have wanted to come here for ages - it did not disappoint! We ordered the salt and pepper squid and octopus balls (Takoyaki) for starters. These were delicious and delightfully presented. For mains, I tried the “Japanese fried chicken” (Karaage) bento box, and my partner had roast duck ramen. Both were exceptional. On the quality of the food alone, we’d be back! However - special mention to our fantastic, attentive and sweet host. Incredibly friendly and really made our evening. Excellent service. Overall, our meal for 2 with 4 beers came to £60 - and we are stuffed! And that was with a bubble tea for my girlfriend too. We’ll definitely be back!

Took my mother for her first Japanese dining experience and it was, as she stated "one of the best meals I've ever had".

I had fantastic time at Miso, food was delicious, staff were so friendly & lovely & place was very clean. 10 out 10 experience!

Fantastic little restaurant! Would definitely recommend who likes or would like to try Japanese food. The lady who served us was extremely lovely

I am a regular here, food has always been consistently amazing for the last almost decade. Super comforting and tasty at amazing prices. If I don't go inside, I love to order in and eat at home. I recommend here to everyone.

Hidden gem, the food was amazing. We teryaki salmon bento and katsu chicken curry bento for mains and assorted mochi for dessert, all was delicious. The atmosphere was very relaxed and enjoyable and the staff we very friendly. We will definitely be back for more.

What an amazing find for us! Fantastic food, everything we had was so tasty and great value! This is obviously a family run restaurant with an adorable waiter! Actually gutted we live at the other end of the country as this would definitely be a regular visit for us otherwise! We will certainly be returning when back in the area! Thank you for a lovely meal and enjoyable evening!

My daughter and I found this place by chance and decided to give it a try. The staff were very friendly and the food was absolutely amazing. This place felt very warm and homely. We really look forward to dining here again

Lovely, big portions of food. Staff couldn’t do enough for you and it’s very clean and pleasant. Youngest has declared it his favourite restaurant. Would like to be able to order wine by the bottle, and salmon sushi should really be raw.

Better book a table before you go, we luckily got a table without booking, great service, great food, highly recommend.

Best takeaway we’ve ever had, the food was so fresh and full of flavour. Looking forward to eating in the restaurant soon.

First time at Miso and hopefully not the last,a Chicken Ramen dish,hot and tasty, healthy too.

This restaurant is great for a casual night out. Not well lit from outside and you need to go upstairs ,but it is definitely worth it. The starter, mains and desert were all delicious. Welcoming staff and amazing food. What more can you ask for? We will return to try different dishes.

This place is a hidden gem, booking is a must! We landed lucky and managed to get a table. There was a wait but we were told this at the very beginning and were more than happy to wait. There was a large selection of options both in food and drink. As you would expect they had some drinks from Japan and had a range of soft drinks. We ordered the bento box and we were not disappointed at all. As you can see from the pictures these boxes are packed full of items and full of flavour. You can use the chopsticks but they also have cutlery if you're not used to them. We did not have a dessert but that was due to the fact we were full from all the food that came in the bento box. All the staff are very friendly and made recommendations that I'm so glad of as I did order the special thanks to them.

Quaint, great staff and most importantly great ramen

It was first time definite go again

Was the best Japanese food I have ever had. Very friendly staff and reasonable prices. Would highly recommend to anyone. Please support them as they are a local business that has recently had hard times.

Amazing food! Best Japanese food I have had in all these years! Great vegan and vegetarian options. Very lovely staff and beautiful restaurant decorations! Really great atmosphere!

O M G what amazing food and the owner was so lovely, octopus balls were incredible and so was the ramen

Lovely little restaurant, everything on the menu is fantastic! Highly recommend the sushi, takoyaki and dorayaki! Service is amazing, everyone is incredibly polite and the decor inside is cosy :)

2 stars.for food.as my.partner enjoyed his, I did not unfortunately. The whole place is in need of a major refurbishment,

The service was amazing and the food was extremely delicious. The atmosphere was great and very relaxed, and really welcoming.

Wonderful food very enjoyable night

It has great service, great food and a great atmosphere. Would recommend for any occasion.

The service was amazing. The food was great. I love the atmosphere and everything was so quick and convenient they offer halal food and vegetarian options. 10 out of 10 would recommend, i’ve no complaints I’ve been here plenty of times with friends with my partner in big groups and in small it fits any and every occasion!!🫶🏽🫶🏽🫶🏽 miso is the highlight of stoke really 🤍

Fabulous Japanese meal tonight with excellent and friendly service.

Nice decorated place with nice food and service. The chicken katsu was really tender and crispy

A very nice place to go and have dinner. Sadly when we arrive no ramen available. But we took some gyozas and bento boxes which were well garnished and the food was excellent. Highly recommended if you are in the area

Delightful Japanese food. Great value, friendly service and plenty of choice for vegetarians/vegans. Superb.

The restaurant is small with just a few tables but offers a great atmosphere, absolutely amazing food and a great service. My lady and I had some vegan/vegetarian food and everything was beyond our expectations. The people who work in the restaurant are kind, respectful and professional.

Best Miso soup I've had. Gyoza, nigiri, and duck ramen were all great too. Great service as well!

Amazing experience at Miso Stoke Tuesday 16th April. Me and my partner came here together to try out another Japanese restaurant t in the area (that isn't Wagamamas!) and we were not dissapointed. Incredible service, very polite and felt very welcoming. Really cosy interior with such a pleasent atmosphere. The food was absolutely incredible. Authentic Japanese cuisine, amazing selection of sushi and gyoza, and lovely selection of mains. Food came out well presented, fresh and hot. I had the vegetable gyoza ramen, incredible! Didn't try desert but looked fabulous and will certainly try next time we come along (which won't be long!) Would absolutely recommend!

Quirky restaurant with fantastic food, everything we order was delicious will definitely be back again soon.

little gem of a place. the staff were so friendly and the food was amazing would definitely go again!

Incredible food, and genuine service! Thank you for another lovely meal.

Wonderful restaurant with authentic Japanese food. Great service and lovely atmosphere.

Our first time here, delicious food, friendly and helpful staff, take away tubs to bring home leftovers! Duck bento was lovely and the roast pork on the ramen was so tender and tasty. We will definitely be back!

first time here and it wont be the last!!! they are currently refurbishing the downstairs restaurant and we ate upstairs, the food was excellent as was the service, thank you. I have never been to Asia, but the food was fantastic.

Absolutely gorgeous, the food was like nothing I’ve ever tasted before it was incredible, all of the staff were so lovely and attentive I’ll be coming here every special occasion ❤️

Very tasty food, and lovely people running the place. The takoyaki was absolutely delicious

Been multiple times and it’s been incredible every time. Perfect selection on the menu, exceptional service and the food is amazing aswell. Staff are so polite and welcoming. Lovely atmosphere, our go to Japanese restaurant.

Fantastic little Japanese, family run restaurant. Food was delicious and service friendly and efficient. Highly recommended.

Authentic, amazing food! Loved our visit here - the food was amazing and the staff were so friendly and lovely. Also good value for money.

Lovely staff and nice decor, although the place isn't well lit outside and you have to go upstairs. Food was very good, I recommend the roast duck bento box - will definitely be back!

Our first taste of authentic Japanese cuisine. This was exactly what we were looking for. A quaint little unassuming restaurant serving a small selection but well rounded menu. The decor takes you from stoke into Japan and the food was to die for. Really friendly staff. 10/10 would eat here again and we look forward to coming again.

Been coming here for several years now for celebrations/anniversaries/valentines etc. The food is incredible and absolutely blows away all other Japanese restaurants we’ve ever tried - definitely worth the money! In particular we would recommend the Roast Duck Ramen. We do miss being able to eat downstairs as the wall decorations were exceptionally beautiful and made the experience 6 stars, but in any case we 100% recommend Miso as either a takeaway or outing!

Delicious japanese bento! We've celebrated my daughter's birthday in a very special atmosphere. We took the cake, they've lit the candle and served, this was very kind as it was almost the closing time. Staff was very kind! We also had our tea refilled each time. We loved the new decorations as well.

We went in 5 for my dauther birthday and the food and service were amazing. Also the main dining area is nicely decorated and clean. The menu offers very good options for every taste at a fair price. We had some mix starters and then 4 bento and one ramen as main. All great. We had also a mix of Japanese beer, sodas and a great green tea wich came with unlimited refills of water. I would surely recommend and come back on another occasion.

Excellent service from start to finish. Staff very welcoming, helpful and attentive. Food was delicious, well presented and very good value for money. Would more than happily highly recommend and visit again!

Nice place lovely food well with a visit or two

The staff were very attentive and friendly, the girl who served us was very friendly. The lady on the front desk was very helpful at getting us a table as we hadn’t booked. Food wise, it was great, I had the Japanese Fried Chicken and Chicken Gyoza Ramen. Lots of flavours and really succulent. Overall the experience was great. Highly recommended to anyone who enjoys Japanese food or just wants to try a new cuisine.

Wonderful restaurant with very polite staff. The portion sizes are absolutely perfect, a single bento box can fill you up! The best inari sushi I've eaten in this entire country. I will be eating here again and I strongly recommend that anyone who likes Japanese food does as well.

Wonderful food and a cosy place to eat. I was recommended this place by a friend and I am glad I gave it a try because it was lovely. Thank you

It's not Japanese food. There was so much rice that I couldn't taste the other ingredients. Rice is too mushy. The takoyaki wasn't even cooked on the inside.

Was looking for somewhere a bit different, with an edge, for a family pre-christmas gathering. Excellent evening out for 8 of us. Quality of the food was excellent and suprisingly authentic considering we were in the middle of proper potteries! Between 8 if us, we tried everything - Sushi, Ramen, Bento, Sake, Plum Wine, Asahi, Kirin, Sapporo beers. It was almost like Tokyo in 1985 again.....

We had the Ramen Bowls at this venue. I had the grilled chicken teriyaki and my partner had the veggie gyoza. First thing to say is both the ramen bowls were big and bigger than Wagamama bowls! The portions you get here are bigger than Wagamama portions! My grilled chicken was a generous portion and bigger than what you get at Wagamama. However, the meat was not as luscious and tender as the chicken you get at Wagamama. My partner said she liked the veggie gyoza and all the other vegetables and noodles in her bowl . I also liked all the vegetables and noodles in my bowl and I also enjoyed the tea-stained egg! We both agreed that the broth in both bowls was NOT sufficiently full of flavour and we had to add extras like chilli pepper and soy sauce to boost the flavour!! If anything the chicken broth at this venue was better than the veggie broth. The broth you get at Wagamama is better in terms of flavour and you also get pak choi in your bowl at Wagamama but not here. To sum up, the portions in the ramen bowls here are large, but we prefer quality over quantity. Our rating for this restaurant is Good but NOT Excellent. Compared with Wagamama, prices here are about the same. On balance we prefer the Ramen Bowls at Wagamama!!

Have visited a few times now. Everytime has been a lovely experience. Great food everytime a range of sushi, ramen and bento boxes. The takoyaki is always a go to! On my most recent visit I booked same day about noon and wonderfully they could fit us in.

Excellent food and very friendly and accommodating staff. We had a lovely meal. Thank you.

Fantastic food! Friendly & attentive staff - Brilliant evening :) There was twelve of us and every dish looked and tasted phenomenal plus big portion sizes.

Food is amazing, long time since I have been there, worth every penny Amazing deserts, nice portion of main dishes 👌, green tea - nice, definitely recommended

Good, freshly-made food, which was abundant and inexpensive. Friendly and attentive staff. A real find and a breath of fresh air in Stoke.

Small lovely restaurant with lovely food. Had the soft shell crab roll sushi and it was fantastic! Very much recommended

Worth every penny! Wonderful food, and equally wonderful service.

First time visiting, and we will certainly be returning. There was a lovely atmosphere, staff were very friendly and food tasted amazing. Miso is the hidden gem of Stoke

Superb Japanese food. Not what I’d expect to find in Stoke town but worth going out of your way for. A hidden Staffordshire gem.

Our first time at Miso last night. Wow, what a great little Gem to be found in Stoke. The food was amazing, we shared some dumplings and squid to start followed by all having different versions of Ramen. All was outstanding. The team serving were really friendly and very helpful. We were upstairs as their normal part of the restaurant is having sone work done, this didn’t detract at all and we still had a wonderful time. I highly recommend this amazing restaurant, you wont believe just how good it is. We are lucky to have it. Thank you

Great food, friendly and great service.

Especially enjoyed the veg gyozas and fried squid.

Food was perfect, as was the service, will definitely be returning

Amazing food, absolutely delicious, made fresh to order. Service was great and I was particularly pleased with my gyoza pen 😂😍

Splendid meal with excellent service. A pleasure from start to finish.

Excellent food and service. Really friendly and welcoming. Both the food and aesthetics are really authentic of Japan (from someone who lived in Japan for a number of years. Looking forward to going back some time.

Lovely food which we all enjoyed as a party of eight. The service was very slow sadly, however still very friendly. We had to wait quite some time for service to arrive, then the food. After ordering, we weren't asked again if we would like to order more drinks, which was frustrating as we couldn't get the servers attention easily. The tables also were difficult to sit at, as there was no room for long legs. However overall, it was enjoyable and we would visit again.

It was not cheap at all, and I felt a little bit let down after reading good reviews about this place. Maybe we just went on a bad day, but based on that experience we will not be going back. I don’t usually review somewhere that I didn’t enjoy, but I really felt like I should for this place. The search for great sushi goes on I guess.

Very tasty food and polite service

The only Japanese pls e in stoke on Trent and my first visit with my friend Caroline. The font is not terribly inviting it feels a bit of a weird adventure when heading up the steps.. We were greeted warmly. We shared starters tempura prawns and the pumpkin Crockett both were hot and fresh, we both chose bento boxes 🍱 I have duck which we cooked to perfection my only issue was the level of salt in the black bean sauce but it was very nice all the same. We didn’t try a pud as we were full to bursting. The restaurant was very busy and I would recommend booking. This place is certainly worth a visit.

Great food in a great little restaurant. Would definitely go back again.

Just go back from Miso my goodness it was beautiful, ordered a bento box, amazing well worth a visit! Dont miss out 😁

Came here for the first time, absolutely without a doubt the best Japanese Cuisine ive eaten. Lovely staff, fast wait times.

I somehow though the place was run by Japanese people , food was alrightish drinks cheap , no sashimi or sushi made of raw fish, there was some sort of sushi made of smoked salmon which for me is a no no so that’s why only 3 stars

Quiet, almost hidden away little restaurant with kind owner & service. Food was very tasty, some of the best Japanese food you can find from an experienced cook! It may look closed from the outside, the entrance hallway is dark and off to the side of the lower shop. But please enter for incredible food!

Best food I’ve had in stoke, have tried most of the menu and all were great, staff are lovely

The food here was AMAZING! We had sushi, bento boxes as well as the pork ramen and it was all delicious. The area where the restaurant isn’t exactly beautiful but once you go upstairs the restaurant is really cute and the service was outstanding. Would thoroughly recommend and will definitely return if we’re in the area.

A wonderful Japanese restaurant that always makes me feel welcome, the staff are faultless and very polite but the food is the really star of the show for Miso, I've tried most of the menu but the Ramen bowls are my favourite with a massive portion of noodles, broth, veggies and meat coming together in a dish that'll make your taste buds sing and your belly full for hours. Don't miss out on Stoke's little piece of Japan! 5 Stars!
