Shokudo, Japanese kitchen and Sushi bar. in Tamworth

Waitress are friendly and attractive, nice food and atmosphere. It's very close to castle.

From the first visit to this restaurant with friends, I have frequently returned with my family for meals. Whether it’s ramen, curry rice, sushi, or sashimi, the quality has always been consistently high. The staff are exceptionally friendly, always willing to assist and often greeting us with warm smiles. Special thanks to Pabitra, Inna, and Sunil for providing such welcoming service and creating a comfortable dining atmosphere.

Great authentic food. We always order too much food..... but love it.

Really delicious food and great service!

This is literally best food we are happy to have in Tamworth , in the course of last month I have ordered various meals , bibimbap, ramen, sushi and everything has been top quality and delicious ❤️

The soup was disappointingly lukewarm, which is a deal-breaker for me when it comes to noodle soup—it should be piping hot so you can enjoy it properly. The eggs were overcooked, losing their soft, creamy texture. The roasted rice lacked the sticky, fragrant quality you’d expect and instead had an unpleasant odour. To top it off, the lobster wasn’t as fresh as it should have been, likely served too cold, which affected the overall flavour. A very underwhelming meal.

Be st place in town for having sushi. Food and service are fantastic. 🍣

Amazing place, really helpful. Me and my partner will definitely be coming back!

Was exceptional from start to finish. We were greeted by a lovely member of staff that looked after us all night. We asked alot of questions about the food and she answered with no hesitation straight away. The atmosphere was great too enough of a buzz but not too loud with authentic music in the back ground. The food... just wow.. me and my partner shared starters then different mains and it truly was exceptional.. only negative is that because the food was so good we had no room for deserts which looked insane too. Will be going back again and again and having for take out.

absolutely perfect just what I needed.

So glad we finally tried this place! We ordered the prawn tempura to start and then a pork and a chicken ramen. The prawn tempura was so crispy, fresh and light. It wasn't coated in dense batter. The ramen were both delicious!! So full of flavour! Service was really good and staff were very attentive and helpful. Definitely worth a return visit!

absolutly amazing new style sushi set 10 10

Fantastic meal! We found this place by chance and were not disappointed. Very tasty food and such a good variety, price was also reasonable. Our waitress Pabitra was lovely and made us feel very welcomed too, thanks a lot!

Ordered delivery from here. Food came very quickly, had an issue with my order but that was sorted after a quick call to them. Overall I enjoyed the food and it was very filling.

Delicious food, nice staff. The music was monotonous but not loud (in the background).

We went here early on a Friday evening for a pre-performance Meal, we had considered Japanese before we came, but then looked around food places once we parked, mostly we could only find Indian, so it was an immense relief to find Shokudo it was very quiet when we arrived but filled up a bit before we left. We were given a table for two in the window and had the menu explained, for us we had a Glass of rose each, shared two starters, and different bowls on mixed seafood and one raw tuna, with lots of lovely flavours, shared pancake and ice cream filles rice ball desserts and coffees. Slightly expensive @ £65. Although it was a la carte Would definitely go again.

Popped in for a lunch visit. Place was rather empty and we were quickly seen to all our food. Had the lunch specials, chicken katsu, miso soup, gyoza and a soft drink. Partner had sushi special. Both cost £15 each. Food was hot and delicious, well balanced flavours throughout, i would have liked spicier but that's just my preference. Service was great and attentive, atmosphere in the restaurant is very relaxing.

Beautiful well packaged food. Delivered on time. Will definitely order again

Excellent Gyoza and Bibimbap tonight. A quiet Tuesday night and a solo meal while travelling for business... But very friendly service and great food! I'll be back next time I'm here.

High quality food and good service.

We had pork bibimbap (I think I spelled it right). It was absolutely delicious! Service was great. Would thoroughly recommend. I intend to be back to sample the sushi and bento boxes.

Fantastic food, great service and atmosphere is lovely! Definitely will be returning.

Great sushi I ever had, quality food and great service.

Very nice and excellent service

Community centre does great work

super quick and lovely quality food, as good as being in the restaurant and packaged well

Very Nice. Excellent food and good taste.

Never eaten Japanese style food before so don't know if it's authentic but it was delicious. Service was excellent though one niggle was I'd ordered a noodle side dish not realising that the main I ordered contained noodles anyway. The side didn't show except on the bill, so I treated that as the tip rather than make a fuss. Will definitely return.

Great japanese restaurant serving a variety of dishes including sushi, ramen, katsu curries, bibimbap and poke bowls! The wakame seaweed salad, kimchi and bamboo shoots are some great accompaniments too. The restaurant is often quiet (not sure why given the food quality) and some parts of the building are a bit dated (toilets feel like an old nightclub), but they've done a great job decorating with Oriental furnishings (cherry blossoms, photographs and other nicknacks.

Clean and themed in keeping with the food. Tables are spacious and far enough apart to provide a sense of privacy. Beautiful looking bar. Service was sweet and polite and the food was just lovely. Very tasty, gently flavoured apart from the hints of spice and pickled ginger. Noodle bowls were generous and the kids loved them. Beautifully presented like little works of art. The desert was delicious and so were the drinks, iced tea and an Aloe Vera juice! Definitely going again! 😃

Lovely food , great beer and great service 👌🏻

Would definitely order again , food was fantastic

Regular weekly treat for me and daughter. Lunchtime special sushi platter and miso soup for me (gluten and dairy free safe yipeee) is amazing. Ramen for daughter. Always so filling.

First Japaneese restaurant, if you are adventurous you won't be des appointed, really good

Set high expectations on this but it turned out disappointing. If I am not wrong, the restaurant is not run by Japanese or anyone who has undergone proper training in Japanese cuisine. Just not authentic 👎😔 Ramen is not up to the usual standard, eg boiled egg and long green onion. Sashimi, just three types, salmon, tuna and octopus. Service: a few reminders for the not coming plates, soy sauce dish and drinks.....

With working down here a lot and travelling a lot for work what a place for fantastic food the service with great as well would recommend to anyone they go the extra mile

The food was delicious, the staff was attentive and very sweet. Thanks

the food was fine but my house comes up further down the road than I am and I always have to walk down to street to flag down what I hope

Was searching for a restaurant for dinner randomly after a fun day at Tamworth Park, we were so lucky to find this hidden gem. Nice staff & good food with reasonable price, lot of choice on menu, suitable for family needs. Definitely will recommend it to others.

Excellent food and value for money

Good food as usual, delivery was on time. An extra pack of wasabi would have been nice.

My ramen was toooo salty(((( Sushi” Rainbow “ was ok.

AMAZING what more can I say true hidden gem with amazing staff and the food is to die for thank you will be back

Taste very good. Staffs are nice and friendly.Must come back again!

Food is great here, worth a visit, will cost again

I ate here last night and was very impressed. The food was excellent and well-presented. The waitress was attentive and professional and the overall experience was lovely. I highly recommend this hidden gem in Tamworth.

Great atmosphere with cheap delicious food :)

5 of us went tonight. Delicious food. Great service. Good amount of variety.

The best Japanese restaurant ever 🤩 Staff is friendly, premises are clean, food looks and tastes amazing! 😋 We defenetly will come back! 🎉 Thank you 💚

Food is absolutely unreal. My one concern was the man making sushi at the top of the restaurant didn’t wash his hands once in the whole time we were sat eating. Never the less service and presentation is top!

Went here on Sunday 23rd June for our anniversary. We was so rushed 3 courses in under an hour. Our table was booked for 7.30 ( they close at 8pm) was very disappointed the staff started putting their coats on and they started cleaning up around us. They brought us some dumplings with ice cream in the middle on the house obviously didn't want us to order desert. Won't be going again and certainly wouldn't recommend. Shouldn't have taken the booking.

The food was amazing, fresh, piping hot and full of flavour. I came here as part of a big company meal (booked in advanced) the service prior and on the day was warm and attentive. On the day, despite there being a large group of us, each course came out quickly and it was easy to get drinks! Also to note on the actual day we had a coupe of changes and the staff took this in there stride. Would definitely recommend and would definitely come back.

Very nice and good quality of food. Amaizing, highly recomended

This was first time ordering from here and I must say I was impressed with the food. It was superb and will be ordering again!

Shokudo delivered the best Japanese food we have ever tasted.The freshness, quality, quantity everything was perfect. Everything from Sushi, to starters to the mains and dessert tasted amazing. Delicious on the plates with the best service. I would highly recommend this restaurant as they also cater to your taste. Thank you to the chef and all the staff for amazing service. I can not wait to visit the place again. Thank you. 😁

The Japanese cuisine offered here is of exceptional quality. The dishes are prepared with fresh ingredients and cooked to perfection. I highly recommend this establishment to anyone seeking an authentic Japanese dining experience.

Very good, had a great meal there at a competitive price.

A great spot to have in the heart of Tamworth. We visited for the first time last week and we had a great dinner. The cocktails we had were both particularly good too, which is often hard to find at any restaurant, let alone in Tamworth. That’s not to say they should just become a cocktail bar though, as the food was great.

Great takoiaki and chicken katsu. Food took me back to my last trip in Japan.

1st time having proper Japanese cuisine. Waitress was very helpful when explaining the food and recommending dishes. It was very quiet but it was early in the evening (6.45pm). Very tasty food. Would definitely come back if in Tamworth again.

Cute little restaurant, authentic tasting dishes (especially the sushi which was fresh and delicious), exceptional customer service. First time here, satisfied my Japanese food craving, will be back again!

Ordered the following for collection. Was ready 15 minutes after placing my order. Pork Gyoza Chicken Katsu Curry Gyudon Pork Yaki Soba The gyoza were really fresh and crispy but soft. Very flavoursome, excellent quality and good value. The katsu curry came with the sauce separate which you poor on to your liking, I used the entire pot. Rice was soft and fluffy, chicken was crispy, soft and moist, curry sauce was full of flavour but not spicy at all, this is just how I like it. The gyudon was really fresh, flavoursome, beef was incredibly tender. Also a hard boiled egg as a bonus on top. The pork yaki soba was very similar to the Wagamama version, but I would say a little fresher and more moist. Very flavoursome and tasty. Another hard boiled egg on top as a surprise. All the food was excellently presented despite being a takeaway order, the chefs clearly care no matter where you are planning to eat either in the restaurant or at home. I would thoroughly recommend Shokudo to all, and will definitely be eating from here again.

lovely staff amazing food good prices will definetly be back

Would liked more eel choices. But food was good that we got.

Such a lovely place the food was amazing prices are really good and really good portions as well and the service was so good as well so welcoming and sweet definitely going again loved it there

Katsu curry came without the sauce. That was kind of disappointing...

Never eaten Japanese food before, really loved the food, High quality and great service

Amazing food, excellent staff, would highly reccomend.

Tasty food, lovely atmosphere, and friendly staff 🤩. We'll definitely come back soon!

Excellent service and food is incredible! The sushi is fantastic. Highly recommend the fried salmon roll and the chicken and pork katsu curry was just perfection. Well done guys!

The food here is great. We went at 5pm and it was immediately busy. Service was very friendly but a little slow. The ramen and Sushi was delicious though and I do highly recommend.

Great Japanese restaurant which bring nice and calm vibes. We had lobster ramen which was amazing. Half of whole rame in the dish. The area is a bit hidden and there is no proper parking next to is, however, there is local parking not too far away.

Had chicken ramen. Usually have this and is great. This time the ramen liquid was very bland and tasted watered down. The chicken pieces also contained small bones or hard pieces of fat that hurt my teeth. Gutted as a go to order from them pretty much every weekend.

Gorgeous food and beautiful restaurant , the sushi is unbelievable so fresh and delicious and the staff are lovely. Will definitely be returning

Wonderful, just delightful. Food and staff excellent. Was a little flat on atmosphere, but we did dine quite early.

I wanted to love this place. Unfortunately the food wasn't great. I started with the pumpkin Korroke which was the best bit about the meal. My son had the Chicken Korrage which was hard and tough. My husband had a wrap which he said was great. My main was the salnon bento box - again the salmon was overcooked and dry inside. The rice wasn't great and there wasn't enough sauce on the salmon to eat with it. I didn't care for the eel balls - that doesn't mean they were bad but not for me. There are lots of fish balls I do eat - the eel was mushy though. All in all it just wasn't great. (My daughter's poke bowl looked nicer, but I don't really want to go to a restaurant to eat something we do at home.) Sorry. Maybe we should have got sushi and sashimi.

Always amazing food from here, the bento box is so good and the ramen has this amazing broth, can't recommend it enough!

Loved the food, the staff was very friendly and recomand me some food because i never eated Japanese food before, i will come back for sure.

No experience about food N/A. A brilliant vocal singer on Sunday a happy time. and a friendly pub.

Stumbled across Shokudo on the way home from Birmingham and so pleased we did. The food (Sushi share box) was amazing, service was brilliant and at a price that didn't break the bank. Will definitely be back, very soon and regularly!!

Honestly don't know why this place doesn't have a 3 month waiting list! The food is absolutely amazing, taste, presentation and the staff are 10/10. Well done all, really looking forward to my next visit

they didn't include the yakitori skewers

Amazing Japanese food in Tamworth. The tonkotsu ramen is some of the best I’ve ever had. Iso and futomaki rolls tasted great. I highly recommend this place!

I’ve been here for 3 times already: salmon fried sushi and chicken ramen are just wow! Great quality, big portions 👍🏻 thank you

Homey, spacious and lovely and attentive staff. Food served hot and fresh. I had takoyaki and spicy duck ramen. I'm not a fan if spice so asked if they can make it mild and they did. Broth was very tasty and duck serving was generous. Would definitely come back if I'm anywhere near the area 😊

Food was excellent Great choice and very fresh

Much improved on the restaurant that was here before. Still some improvements to make. Sushi was good. Rolls were small. Katsu was watery and rather tasteless. 10 months later and this place is even better. Much improved lighting, good ambience, great food. Pork yakisoba and Japanese beef curry were excellent. Definitely worth a visit!

Food was amazing! We had the chicken katsu and vegetable yaki udon and both were cooked very well and flavoursome. Staff are really friendly as well. Would highly recommend!

Lovely food, hidden gem in Tamworth

Amazing service and food!! Would highly recommend

An absolute gem of a find! I stopped by Shokudo Japanese Kitchen and Sushi Bar for a takeaway order for myself and some friends, and I couldn't be happier with the experience. The staff greeted me with warm smiles and even offered me a complimentary miso soup while I waited for my order. Their friendliness and hospitality made the visit even more enjoyable. Plus, the food was simply outstanding! Fresh and delicious sushi, bursting with flavour. Highly recommend.

Fantastic food and service! Highly recommended for a meal date.

I recently had the pleasure of dining at Shokudo restaurant that left me completely satisfied and eager to return. The highlight of my meal was definitely the seafood ramen. The rich and flavorful broth paired perfectly with the tender chunks of lobster, creating a dish that was both comforting and luxurious. The noodles were cooked to perfection, adding a satisfying texture to each bite. In addition to the seafood ramen, I also tried the salmon sushi, which was equally impressive. The fresh slices of salmon melted in my mouth, and the perfectly seasoned rice complemented the fish beautifully. Each piece was a delightful burst of flavor that left me craving more. Overall, I highly recommend this place

The lunch set menu is good deal!

Chicken Yaki soba and Salmon Volcano was absolutely delicious! Service was fast and staff was incredibly friendly! Would strongly recommend

First time coming here and food was amazing!! Could not fault it! Tasty Japanese food, good service, friendly staff and a lovely atmosphere. Will definitely come back for food again :)

Had the chicken Karaage starter and pork soba noodles and cheesecake. And all the food taste so fresh and done well. Been here twice now and love having a Japanese food place up the road. Staff are great and food is amazing. And the decor inside feels authentic.

Authentic Japanese food. The atmosphere for this restaurant is excellent. We have ordered sushi set and sashimi set.

The standard of food here is incredible. Fresh ingredients and beautifully presented. We had the salmon sashimi set which melted in the mouth. The soft shell crab tempura was amazing and the katsu curry was perfect for a cold winters day.

Best quality sushi in West Midland ever! Reasonably priced, and comfortable dining environment.
