Came here for lunch and had the chicken katsu curry don (£11) with the hijiki rice upgrade (£1.80). Both were very nice and varied. Service was great. Service charge of 12.5% was automatically added. I would visit again.

Food tastes okay but if you order 4 dishes, one per person, every dish comes out on their own speed so by the time the last person gets their dish, the first person is finished with theirs unless they wait till their food gets cold. I wouldnt recommend it for a group dining place

One of my favourite Japanese places to eat in London. I am a regular. I like the vibe and the food is fresh. The only constructive feedback I could give would be for the waiters to be a bit less rigid. You almost never get a smile so at times I feel like I bother them when I ask for something but other that great it’s a thumbs up for me and I will return.

Average food. The waiter said the discretionary service charge was mandatory when it clearly said it was discretionary on the receipt. He put us in a lock with paying the service charge and claimed that that’s how they fund their staffing. He also cheated us on the dessert and brought us two different sets. Horrible service by the head waiter.

This is going to be an unusual review in that I can't think of another restaurant where I've enjoyed the food very much whilst taking an active dislike to the restaurant interior. The quality of food is all that really matters, right? If so, please read the next paragraph and ignore what follows it! My wife had already visited Tanakatsu several times with her friends. We both had a lunchtime bento box, which was expertly prepared with wonderfully crisp pork katsu, tasty salmon teriyaki on good quality rice, an excellent pumpkin croquette, a small selection of high-class sushi and a fine side salad on which you could drizzle the owner's "mighty dressing", served with miso soup. I really couldn't fault it. Another big tick from me for the modest 7.5% service charge. So what about the internal layout? It's actually quite spacious with plenty of natural light but the internal concrete walls were for me unappealing and the overall decor off-putting. Along two walls are some tightly spaced and rather small tables. The one we were shown to was unpleasantly sticky and our conversation drowned by an exceptionally loud man next to us conducting a job interview in a domineering manner. On the other sides were two long 'shelves' which I suppose was the inspiration for the unusual restaurant name ('tana' = 'shelf'). I can understand the logic - it makes it easier to accommodate solo diners - but surely the point of sitting diners side by side is that there should be something more interesting to look at than a very uninspiring street or concrete wall. Also it leaves so much wasted floorspace in the middle! Anyway if you think these observations petty and unnecessary - just go there and you'll have a really good meal.

The nigiri sushi is fresh and delicious, the wasabi is ground by hand, and the chef's workmanship is top-notch. Watching the chef make it is an artistic enjoyment.
