Exquisite traditional japanese restaurant. When popular it’s a bit of a wait outside, but it definitely is worth it. We had the Curry Katsu and the Chicken teriyaki, with 2 hamachi nigiris on the side. Everything was just delicious, perfect rice. Of course they are going to give you free green tea when you arrive :)

We ate this noon. It's a different and super cool place. We loved the food. Very healthy and very good price. It surprised me. We ordered sushi, tuna tataki (it was incredible) and the price was really surprising €61 for 3 people. I recommend it 100%. Mandatory stop if you go to London. One of the best Japanese restaurants I've ever been to.

Eating for less than 20 pounds in London and eating well is a fantasy. Tokyo Diner is a place run by Japanese people that is managed in a Japanese way (no tips, you can ask for extra rice, they give you free tea when you sit down). The katsu curry is rich and filling.

Best Katsu curry in London! Fast service and reasonable price. Nice touches such as complimentary tea. We enjoyed loads of food so spent £40 a head with drinks though if you’re having a regular meal probably spend around £20. I was surprised by the fast service, cheap, and delicious food! Katsu curry is a Japanese curry served with a crispy cutlet! The sushi is also delicious so I highly recommend it!

I have taken numerous people to the restaurant over many years. The staff are polite and helpful. The tea is exceptionally drinkable, the food very reasonable, a nice calm atmosphere, it's clean. I almost always end up with the curry which I love and because I don't get to come to London very often now, if I am very very hungry with Tofu (the portion of Tofu is large). I have been very comfortable eating here alone.

I really wanted to love this as it was highly recommended by a friend. I did enjoy the atmosphere, and the servers were very polite. Upon arrival I was welcomed with hot tea and a small bowl of crackers. Unfortunately, I did not enjoy the food and found it bland and forgettable. I might come back and try a few other dishes, but not any time soon.

A surprise Saturday afternoon find. All we wanted was a quick, hearty meal and not pay the ridiculous tourist prices of Chinatown. This ticked all boxes. A friendly welcome to a clean restaurant- actually it reminded me a bit like a cafe - but don’t want to under rate the venue. We were served promptly and very pleased with our choices of the noodle broths. Along with one side of crispy chicken. I’ve lived in London all my years and must have walked past Tokyo diner many times - and not really noticed it. Will definitely recommend and be back again

Strongly recommended, quite authentic Japanese dishes in the center of London's Chinatown! Many classics such as gyudon, curry rice, oyako-don, etc. are available, and the portion sizes and quality were excellent. I appreciate that the oomori size is free for rice based dishes. My girlfriend is a vegetarian and she enjoyed the tofu curry, and found various other options too. Finding hiya-yakko in London is an unusual surprise and there is also a selection of sushi but it isn't the menu focus. It's nice to talk to Japanese-speaking staff as well, thank you for the kind service. It's a restaurant with a nice atmosphere in the center of London, and we especially recommend oyakodon🥚!

The restaurant is small but nice. It has its own charm. That's probably why it's so popular. Despite the "long" queue, you get a seat quite quickly. (Assuming you are 1 to 3 people). For people who are picky eaters, it may be rather difficult to find something to eat. The service is also very good. All the waiters understand English, some better, some worse. I have to say that most of the waiters are also very attractive/handsome. (Especially today lol)

The moment you get seated, they serve you with (free) Japanese tea and some salty snacks, the service is amazing, fast, and they're very kind. They also speak both Japanese and English fluently. It's quite small, but very cute. The interior is a typical traditional Japanese place which is very adorable!

Das letzte mal war ich vor einigen Jahren hier essen, und bin daher auch gezielt wieder hingegangen. Und was soll ich sagen: Ich werde wiederkommen Da ich viel in Japan gewesen bin, war es mir eine Freude, dort auch wirklich auf japanisch sprechendes personal zu treffen, die sich begeistert gezeigt haben, in ihrer Muttersprache angesprochen zu werden. Mein Sohn hatte eine Portion Udon-Suppe und ich Eine mega leckere Lachs-Reis-Schüssel. Dazu gab es Tee (gratis) und ein Asahi. Trinkgeld: In Japan ist Trinkgeld unüblich. Die halten das hier genauso. Auf jedem Tisch steht daher ein kleiner aber freundlicher Hinweis. Sollte jemand dennoch etwas da lassen, wir dies vollständig an Hilfsorganisationen gespendet.
