They do big baos here that they don’t at the other Itsu and they’re to die for. So fluffy and that centre is scrumptious. I definitely prefer the veggie katsu over the hoisin duck though (coming from a meat eater). At £4.99, it’s the perfect light dinner. And it’s always so fresh and hot inside which is important for me as someone who hates lukewarm food.

Rice was cold and hard, sushi was not good rolled and fell apart, also not fresh, i did not enjoy my time and I also did not enjoy my food, very disappointing. The toilet was disgusting, I had to hold in my breath, so bad it was. The chicken tasted like liver.

I have reported that my order has arrived in a bad condition, soup was leaking over the carrier bag. The delivery man also reported this kindly, but I have mot been compensated as I did not take pictures which is required by policy of the company. Well, I felt like this was looking for an excuse instead of finding a solution how to solve this and making me feel heard. As a customer I don't want to hear why you cannot help me, I want to hear how you can help me!

On a not particularly hot day in Oxford, my tacos were lukewarm at best. I was told "only the meat is heated" - to 75℃ allegedly, but you could have fooled. me. The bored staff made me a fresh dish without the icy chilli ancho sauce on the side, but the difference wasn't noticeable. The Modelo beer wasn't bad. And at least the tacos were made from corn.

After having noodle and dumpling soup , which should have been innocuous, I was violently sick etc for the following 12 hours. It has taken me 9 days to get back to normal. Rather a joke considering it’s called a Detox soup! My sister had normal dumplings which luckily didn’t cause her to get food poisoning but they were anaemic looking , soggy and she left most of them. This is fast food at its worst

As usual in these places, the food is subpar and relatively bland (understandable as they have to cater to massive amounts of people). Still quite alright as far as chains go. Quite speedy to get something to eat, which I suppose is why you'd wanna go here. Staff super polite and helpful, saw them go out of their way to help confused costumers (many people don't understand stuff they order on the screens are self-service from the shelves). Good vegi options.

one of the most revolting meals i have ever bought. We left it on the table with one half bite from each dish it looked revolting it tasted the same so if you are going to spend £11 for fast food go to any of the fast food restaurants at least their food will have as little nutrition as this place but you might be able to actually consume it. i would give no stars but there is no option for that like all these sorts of places the staff are just putting in the hours to food on their own tables so they do their best i suppose

Itsu is your go-to spot for delicious noodles that hit the spot when you're craving something satisfying and quick. The atmosphere is cool and modern, making it a nice place to grab a bite. The portions might be a bit small for some, but the flavors are on point, and you can tell they use fresh ingredients. It's a great option when you're in need of a tasty and healthy meal in a hurry.

I'm gluten intolerant. Traces of gluten don't affect me, but gluten does. I don't have any other intolerance/allergies. So, I took the """gluten free""" Thai rice bowl. I've been in excruciating pain for 4 hours now, with pain killers. I'm glad I'm just intolerant, that's outrageous. Allergies are no joke, you could kill someone (really, I'm not exaggerating). I will never come back to any of your establishments, and don't go "we're sorry" on me, because I really don't care : just don't put gluten free when it's not, and be careful, please, before you really hurt someone.

Came here for a quick & cheap lunch, greatly exceeded my expectations. I had the "Korean stir fry noodles" (Some vegan noodles) and they were amazing, but I don't think the portion was big enough for the £6.99 price tag. The food was customizable, you had many options for additional side dishes like meatballs or chicken. Service was great, I had my order prepared in a matter of minutes. The restaurant was clean, toilets also and what surprised me the most is the option to fill your water bottle for free. Also, self service is available, very useful for people like me who don't know what to order. Definitely recommend :)

Fast noodles! We are healthy eaters and try to pick healthier items if we HAVE to eat out...We got caught over lunch whilst in Oxford the other day, and tried Itsu. If you're looking for a healthy-ish Japanese style lunch, try Itsu. Tasty veggie options. My son loved the sushi, although his favourite is tuna. He said it was super fresh and tasty. Our noodles & gyoza were hot and delish. Easy to order, ready quick & the restaurant was clean. We'll definitely go again.

My experience at itsu was awful. And I hope it won’t in become sick from eating food from this place! I ordered my usual meal; miso soup and a sushi set. Mid way through the soup I found a piece of hair or fur, as it didn’t look like normal human hair. It was on the seaweed which is part of the soup. It absolutely put me off the rest of my food. I took it all to the till and showed it to staff. I was asked if I would like a refund for only the soup. I said no as I wasn’t able to eat the rest of my food after finding some fur/hair in it. So I asked for a refund for all of it (around £10). The staff took around 10 minutes trying to figure out how to refund me £1,20 as their systems weren’t synchronised. …I ended up not getting all of my money back and wasting a whole bunch of food which I could have enjoyed if not the hair/fur. The staff didn’t really seem to care, they just didn’t want to make a big deal out of the situation which is fair, but it made it seem like hair in their food is some kind of casualty for them. It was an awful experience, topped with an absolute mess within the whole restaurant. The dirty surfaces made me question the necessity of paying extra to eat in.

Itsu was one of my favourite places for cheap, quick and decent quality sushi. Since they changed their concept from self service to counter service, Itsu has lost its key features: time and price. With the counter service, waiting times have dramatically increased. With only one person putting together orders you can see your food getting cold in front of you while standing in queue. Prices have increased by up to 30% (for avocado maki at least) and the student discount has been abolished. I hope Itsu realises soon how many costumers they are losing with their new concept and switch back to self service.
