Nisa Kitchen offers Singaporean cuisine and this shop has a FULL HALAL menu. I tried the schezuan chicken noodles. I think the price is decent and the quantity is good. The food tastes great as well. The spice level is low-medium. I wish there was more chicken in the noodles but otherwise it was a good dish. There is limited seating area inside the shop, but their service was quick. If you are looking for halal food in the area, you should try this out.

I would leave 10 stars if I could. Julen at Nusa Kitchen is the absolute man and made us feel like family straight away. A buddy and I are traveling from the US and rented an AirBnb right above his business. We would come here for breakfast every morning for the Vietnamese Egg Scramble with sausage (delicious!) and a latte (the latte is £1 when ordering a breakfast item!). The energy and passion that Julen brings to his business is what every business owner should strive for. They also have a wonderful lunch menu as well! If you’re in town, come to Nusa Kitchen and leave well-fed with a smile on your face. Thank you Julen and team! We will be back :)

The food and the staff at Nusa are amazing. Renata the manager is always great and super organised. I usually go there to order lunch for the office, I send out my list and Renata and her staff make everything ready for me at the time I tell them for the pick up. everyone in the office is happy about the selection of dishes they offer. Their soups are my favourite, but even the meat and fish boxes are very tasty and now they have introduced salads, hence even more options to choose from 😊 I highly recommend it !!! One of the best fast food places in the city 😊

Not a good experience. I feel ripped off and cheated. First the positive: The woman was very knowledgeable about the menu and what was gluten free (there are two gluten free options). Now the bad: the meat was terribly spicy and unpalatable. It tasted strongly of chili and I knew it was going to ruin my stomach. I ended up throwing it all out and what a waste of 7.5 pounds (this hurts on my student budget). I informed the staff that the meal was horrible and too spicy for me but they didn’t do anything. Luckily there was a Sainsburys not far away so I could find something else to eat. I recommend skipping this place.

I regularly go to Cannon Street Nusa Kitchen. The food is amazing. I thought it about time I reviewed the place. I love the soups. I usually have veggie soups but today I had a Prawn Laksa soup and it was delicious. You can even try them before you buy now. I have never tasted such delicious soup ever. You can also have addition brown rice to bulk up the soup, chilli flakes, fresh coriander and yoghurt. The soup is served with delicious flat bread. Note, the eggs they do for breakfast are also super-tasty. Lovely Asian-inspired cuisine. Staff are lovely too and treated me like a VIP today. Note, these soups are worth every penny and more. If you work in the City of London you must try this place, It’s really special.

I used to be a regular customer before lock down, getting my breakfast and lunch with Nusa Kitchen. Unsure if they were having a bad day or what but I was in the Adams Court one as my usual was closed and well, it didn't seem very welcoming at all. I felt like we were a hinderance making an order rather than a customer. When I got back looked in my box and it wasn't what I ordered. Been a long time since I visited Nusa since lock down and thought I'd be loyal to help businesses like this but sad times. Don't think the staff were bothered or cared. Probably the last time I visit. What a shame.

I miss the amazing flavours and taste of the Nusa soups. They really are great and you get a piece of nice bread to go with it. The larger size is great for a soup lunch. It is pricey but for the location and quality it’s decent and you get a lot worse food for more in that area!If you fancy a rice box I quite like the beef rendang here which is a decent portion, good quality beef, with a nice dressing that goes with the side salad.FYI: The Cannon Street shop has a strange queuing system usually (rice boxes separate from soup queue but it’s too tight and gets confusing to folks who have no idea and just see a queue out the door).Hoping to have a soup here again soon!

Having visited the Bank branch for a number of years, I have noticed the small yet subtle changes to their food. The latest change however has made me stopped going to Nusa completely. The rice boxes used to be packed full with beef or chicken and rice with a perfectly sized portion of side salad. Now the side salad is the main feature, taking up half the box and the beef or chicken and rice in considerably smaller quantities. And yet the price remains the same. Shame on Nusa! I'll quite happily pay the £6-£7 they charge for their rice boxes, but not for a box of dry salad.

Ubicación: Old Street BranchPedí una sopa de lentejas picantes (vegana) y me dijeron que mi sopa era la número 8. Luego, en el mostrador, el servidor gritó "Chilli Butterbean, número 8". Dije que soy el número 8 pero que mi pedido era lentejas picantes, no chilli butterbean. Se disculpó y dijo que se refería a Lentejas picantes, y se confunde cuando se ven idénticas.Más tarde, me di cuenta a la mitad de mi sopa que era Chilli Butterbean que no es vegano.Es un error grave de cometer, y me decepcionó que, incluso después de darles la oportunidad de enmendar, no lo hicieron.Instaría al personal a tener más cuidado cuando se realiza un pedido de un artículo vegano.He adjuntado a la revisión imágenes de las sopas de aspecto 'idéntico'.

Bueno, ¿qué puedo decir, enormemente decepcionante, sopa fría de piedra y apenas arroz frío y tazón de pollo. Eran las 20:30 nadie más en la tienda, uno pensaría que podrían encender el microondas el tiempo suficiente para calentar la comida. No creas que todas las BS en el sitio web sobre comida fresca y saludable preparada con cariño, es la basura para llevar habitual que se ha estado allí todo el día esperando que se encienda en el microondas. Si solo hubiera tenido tres minutos a plena potencia, probablemente habría sido comestible. No entretendría regresar y recomiendo encarecidamente evitar este lugar.

Whilst the names were tempting, I have tried two different food and neither had any relevance to south east asia. But if by adding coconut milk, a food is classified as SEA, then yes it is! the traditional malaysian food which is nasi lemak, as the name suggests, the rice is cooked with coconut milk - and definitely not served with pork. i tried laksa and it was just lots of coconut milk with tumeric and chilli. to me, its false advertisement but then i am from SEA, maybe the locals like it!

My review refers to the Nusa Kitchen, located on Cannon Street. I regularly get both breakfast and lunch from this place, and find it's hard to beat for fantastic take-away food in the area. It knocks the socks off your more generic chains, which can be found in the area. They produce fantastic flavours in their soups, salads, and hot boxes - it tastes like it's all cooked and prepared freshly, but without being part of a massive production line. They also do fantastic, tasty bircher muesli which I regularly get for breakfast. Fast, friendly and efficient staff - it's a real gem, amongst homogenous outlets throughout the city.

I used to visit the Cannon Street branch from time to time as the food often tasted nice. It is quite a distance from my office and is expensive for what you get, but I would occasionally visit to treat myself.Recently I visited and ordered their beef rendang meal. I was having a late lunch so the store was quiet and I was the only customer. The lady serving took my order and I was given the boxed up meal some minutes later which I took back to my office. I was really looking forward to the meal once back in my office dining area. However I was shocked and very disappointed to see the contents of a cheaper chicken meal inside the box once I sat down and opened it. I was not keen on eating chicken plus I had specifically paid for the beef rendang which was more expensive so had to take the long trip back to the shop in the rain.On returning to the shop I explained their error to the same lady who served me. She offered me the (correct) beef rendang meal or a refund but showed very little concern for the fact that it was their mistake had completely wasted my time and lunch break. Despite my protests she never hinted at any form of compensation... She even had the audacity to suggest I take my lunch break again later, despite it now being after 3pm!In the end I took the refund because my lunch break was gone and I had to return to my office.I don't usually write reviews and am not malicious but I was extremely disappointed with the level of service and lack of respect and empathy shown.I will definitely not be visiting Nusa Kitchen ever again nor will I be recommending them after such a horrible experience.

I regularly visit the branch in Adams Court and have never been disappointed with my lunch here. The soup menu is changed each week and the recipes are extremely tasty. Typically there are two meat, a chicken, a fish and four vegetarian choices including vegan options, so a good range. Many of the recipes are inspired by Asian cuisine, and pleasantly spicy. The jambalaya is particularly fine and worth looking out for. Lots of other food here too, but I have been so taken with the soups that I don't look beyond those. You can ask for a taste before you choose.Often there is a long queue but don't let it put you off, as it only takes a minute or two to reach the front. It can sometimes get a bit confused along the counter but the staff are a friendly bunch. Mainly a take-away although there is a small area to sit inside, with a few more tables outside.

I've been going here regularly because it's in my building and a welcome alternative to Pret. I only go back because I like the Bombay eggs, but I'm finally through with them. For good. I order the same thing every time (bombay eggs, avo, toast, flat white), and EVERY TIME one of the items is missing. They forget my coffee, or my avocado, or my toast on the side. EVERY TIME. 2-3 times i didn't realize until I was back in my office, and have had to go back downstairs to fetch the missing item, and then I started opening the box and checking all the contents are present before leaving. Today, i was almost charged £9 for my breakfast, because they accidentally added items to my bill. And while I was texting about this to my friend, I receive my bag --- with no toast. Again. I think its 13 strikes and you're out, right?And the coffee sucks. Over roasted and bitter.

This is a chain of three - and i have been many times to the other twin Cannon Street and off Old Broad Street in the city. There is room to eat one's soup that is of a hot, rich and spicy Singapore style. It is always filling but also the best on most looked-forward-to food that I eat from one month to the next. I have introduced several people to the soup - who also rave about it. Always leave wanting more, and always enjoy whatever flavour I try. Recommend the chick pea, the black bean, the lentil, prawn soups etc. They all have much more complex names than this though.The queues are always long (which says something), but they move fast and are well-worth queuing for.And one can try soups too at the counter. The bread could be better - or warmed - but this does not detract from the excellent soups. I always have all the toppings whether it is coriander, chilli flakes and creme-fraisse - or tortillas and avocado in one of the bean soups.They do other food, but the soup is the centre-piece and frankly, I am blind to anything else there. Over the last year or two the prices have risen significantly: but it is still worth it and at the current prices, they are still bringing large numbers through the doors even with better and faster serving from multiple soup pots.

Grabbed some soup for lunch the other day, chicken soup was actually really good, like homemade. It was kind of thick though, stew-like. If you're looking for a lighter soup option then its not it, their soups are a bit more rich, but taste very nice. Will come back to try other as well.

OK so the beef rendang is perhaps not very authentic, I've had loads and made by Indonesian/Malaysian chefs. But this version is tastier! I've sampled some of their soups which was nice. The vegi lemak was poor - omelette with rice and some bits of dried anchovie and peanuts - there wasn't a samabal curry sauce, but a pot of samabal sauce. There used to be a Malaysian/Indonesian stall in Leadenhall market that did amazing chicken nasi lemak but alas it closed some years ago.Anyway, just for the beef rendang Nusa get stars!

Nusa Kitchen is absolutely my favourite place to eat in the City . It offers the most delicious soups ever . The salad range is very good too . They keep on changing them , so you can never get bored with any of them ( unlike Pret which salads could be a bit boring ) I am pescetarian ( vegetarian who eats also fish ) and whenever I go there , I am spoilt for choice ! Soups / salads - all amazing and fresh . The staff ( Adam's court branch ) is extremely helpful - they always offer you to try all the soups ( which is very rare at the other places ) , very friendly and always smiling . It's always a pleasure to see them ! I would recommend this place to anyone who takes pleasure in eating and enjoys good food !! Their breakfasts are all very tasty - yoghurt with granola and fruits is my favourite . Don't look any further and go to NUSA Kitchen !! You won't regret. I just wish there were more branches around London , not only in the City.

This was the best and authentic food.Affordable price.The food is generally authentic,well presented and tasty,although not what one might consider generously portioned.Staff are vary friendly; attentive without being overly obsequious or intrusive.Thanks Tony.

...or I might have died from eating too much salmon and avocado. We stumbled upon the tiny shop in Adams Court and the queue was going around the corner. The service is pretty quick and we were served after about 5-7 minutes. It was definitely worth the wait! We had Moghul Beef and Vietnamese Chicken & Sweet Potato Soup. Then we had a rice box with beef, cooked in yummy coconut milk. The dessert was black (dairy free) rice pudding with Caravan coffee. (Oh yes, they have Caravan coffee!) All delicious! And not only that but it is actually healthy comfort food. I mean, superfood salads are hip & trendy but why don't we have more super soups around? It is totally comforting, heartwarming, guilt free pleasure... Go for it or have the salmon sandwich and quinoa salad again. Your choice... By the way, there are a number of vegan, vegetarian and gluten-free options.

Second time to Nusa near the office. I like the menu - just the right amount of choice.Had a rice lunch box, fresh salad, well cooked meat, excellent rice and then yum, the spices.

Have been a regular customer now for years, and it still delivers. The soups are delicious with a great choice that changes regularly (weekly I guess). Recently started to have the rice boxes for a change and they are even better ! Slow cooked beef is super soft and not too spicy, and the rice is great, unlike in many other Asian takeaway places. Also try the chicken. Drink selection ok, fresh fruit also, definitely worth a go when your for a quick lunch.

Brilliant soups made daily. Always a great choice which also caters for the meat avoiders amongst us. Choice of rice, bread or fruit to accompany your soup. Great value, better taste.

I love the soups at Nusa and typically go to the one off Old Broad Street, but there wasn't an option for that on tripadvisor. Every week the line-up changes and they have soups for every mood. I'm on a bit of a health kick at the moment and tend to opt for the veggie soups without anything added. You can get optional rice and flat bread to make it even more filling. My favourites are chick pea and chorizo, corn chowder (with extra red chilli) and cochin fish.

Have visited twice now having the nasi lemak and then the Szechuan Dan Dan beef.It's good for a quick lunch. The nasi lemak was pretty underwhelming. You had to pour the sauce, peanuts and fish on yourself. I'm assuming they operate like Leon, where all the dishes have the same base (rice + Asian veg)and they chuck on the relevant topping when you order and therefore like with Leon it's means it will always be average.The soup on the other hand was actually really good, decent depth of flavour and generous portions of beef.So all in all a mixed bag. The average price of lunch was around 7 quid and compared to other Asian, Vietnamese places in the area it's pretty average and more expensive.

Fantastic soups, really really nice and good portions too.They don't really do catering well though, tried them for an event through Deliveroo and they forgot the cutlery, etc.But go there without hesitation for a quick lunch.

Have been a usual for the soups they have, nice and tasty, with a menu that changes regularly.Now I tried the rice box, chicken is very good, but the slow cooked beef is amazing . Super soft and tender and great taste, not too spicy. With rice and salad, need to try !

Absolutely perfect pit stop for an office lunch break. This was right around the corner from where I worked, and I would visit most days for soup at lunch time. I was never disappointed. However- watch out for the lunch time rush queues- try visit before or after!

Popped in for a late lunch to take away. Had vegetarian coconut rice, which came with salad, and optional chilli omelette on top. Included separate were peanuts, sauce and crispy little fish. Very good lunch, sorry eaten it otherwise would have included a picture.

Delicious soup......always hot, big on flavour and when they say it's spicy, it is!Great choice of toppings (creme fraice, coriander and chilli paste).What is also important is the clear nutritional labeling. All too often soups are hiding loads of cream, fat and calories. There are plenty of Nusa options that are below 300 cals per portion - you just need to read the website or the instore nutritional info.The Cannon Street branch runs smoothly so don't be put off by the large queue......it moves quickly.

Went to Cannon Street Nusa Kitchen, moved offices and usually go to the one on Old Broad Street that is lovely. My soup was disgusting, cold and was meant to be beef but was just fat.£5.25 for a horrible soup and piece of bread, awful.

Nusa is normally queued out the door at lunchtime and that says all you need to know when it's surrounded by Pret, Costa, Starbucks and plenty more. Always a good choice of extra tasty filling and satisfying soups that are served with a hunk of bread. There are crisps, drinks, sweets and salad but save them for another day.

Had Nasi Lemak at the Cannon Street branch, tasted horrible compared to the one I had either in Singapore or other Asian restaurant in London. The rice was dry basmati rice with no coconut flavour. No anchovies were given and they used dry meat loaf (a poor effort of fish otah). The sambal chilli is okish (still a poor effort). Not only was it not authentic, it tastes horrible. I have no idea where all these other good reviews comes from, maybe the soup is good which I didn't try. Can't believe I gave up free lunch from my office to try this takeaway, worst decision ever.

What a great place to come across. A local pub, in a quiet residential location, with the such good food, great service and great atmosphere. The live music is terrific, it’s not so loud that you can’t hear or talk, we enjoyed it all. In fact we went twice and it was just as good the second time.
