Yashin Sushi in Kensington and Chelsea - Phone Number, Reservations, Reviews

Attentive staff, great omakase :)

Dined here on a Saturday night with my dad. Food- mediocre. I couldn’t help but notice how poorly the staff are treated. The manager or whatever he was treated my server poorly. I tried to tip the amazing server by card but she said don’t bother we don’t keep tips anyway. Response: Haha i really wish it was fake and i can see why you’d rather pretend it didn’t happen. I won’t be commenting any further. I will just avoid and leave a review of my experience. I don’t care to know how you would make this right or to give you feedback.

Amazing food and professional, friendly team! Sushi prepared by the Chef was perfect and the dishes from the kitchen were all super tasty and beautifully presented.

Really great meal and spectacular service

Excellent and innovative sushi tucked away in a side street off Kensington High St. All dishes prepared to perfection. The tuna nigiri with truffle is to die for. Expect usual London prices.

I spent my birthday celebration here and it was not only one of the most delicious meals I have ever had, but the service was second to none. I will be telling everyone about this place for years to come

From the moment we walked in, we were treated like both family and royalty. We came to celebrate a birthday and it felt like it. Every bite was personal, delicious and intentional - it was an exciting journey from beginning to end between textures and sensations. Can’t wait to come back and can’t thank the team enough for a delicious meal with flare, care, detail and flavour. Thank you.

Everything was delicious as usual, and the service was impeccable, Maple was just brilliant!

For those who like to discover new flavors... With a friend we loved it! Quite expensive but worth it! We took the menu.

Great omakase and cool sushi bar

World class quality at a relatively affordable price

Best sushi in London for as long as I can remember 👌

Food is delicious and Michael is the goat!

Excellent sushis and services throughout the evening. Great experience as always!

Carinna was an absolutely amazing server and would go back just to see her but if that’s not enough the food is amazing!!

Terrible service, rude staff, expensive food.

Miniscule portions of mediocre food. Do better

Place for different types of Sushi

I eat at Yashin on regular basis; when you go into the restaurant, it is amazing. However, getting food for takeout is a big disappointment and I consider it a ripoff. The Sushi 'set' is only small pieces of sushi crammed in a box - no miso soup nor salad, which you get with the sushi sets for the same price when you eat in. I can't guarantee it, but I think the Sushi pieces themselves are smaller and they do not have the individually matched special toppings on them that you get in the restaurant. Not only that, no napkins are provided, and only second-rate chopsticks; not the same ones as in the restaurant. All in all a really poor experience given my high expectations based on the dine-in experience.

Nice sushi, but not special enough to be worth the price point. Service could have been more attentive.

Not only was the meal first class, but the service was incredible. Welcoming. Helpful. Fast. Friendly. What a wonderful evening. Thank you Yashin!

Delicious food and Karina was very helpful and made us feel very comfortable !

I thought I was going to find a meal more similar to how the one below is set up, nothing to see... it is very commercial and with a quite strange mix of flavors

Amazing food and excellent service! One of the best places I’ve visited recently.

We enjoyed our delicious dinner at Yashin. The food is always fresh and well-prepared. Great service from Michael!

Great place. Good quality and good atmosphere.

Excellent sushi bar in HSK, high quality fish and very attentive staff. Make sure you request a table upstairs as downstairs is a little dark.

Great set lunch salmon meal, quality of the sushi was great and the portion size of the roll was generous. Very good miso soup. Service friendly and knowledgeable.

The food was okay, but just too expensive for the price asked. The timing of the courses with the wine pairings was a total disaster, even though the restaurant was almost empty. For a while nothing came, only for white wine, red wine and sake to be served all at once within 2 minutes. Very unfortunate and not recommended.

Great sushi, we'll definitely come back again

Food is way too expensive for the quality. Things are offered to you on the menu without communicating that they are more expensive! The drinks and food are put on the table far too quickly. The ambience is mediocre, you sit in a cellar. No recommendation !!

Michael was amazing. Great service and great food

Karina was a fabulous host and looked after us wonderfully. Will definitely be coming back.

Super high end, unique and amazing.

Agnes was incredible. Loved our experience

Agnes was amazing with a great service and an amazing food from the chef’s ❤️

My partner and I were underdressed for this place, but were treated well by the staff. The food was incredible and the service was great.

Michael and team were amazing with service, customizing their interaction every step of the way! We had the taster menu and everything from the sake to the quality of the Icelandic uni, Otoro and other dishes were absolutely fantastic. Worth the value!

The staff were very friendly and efficient and the food was exquisite. Would definitely recommend - and you must try the softshell crab roll with the sweet soy sauce

Traveling solo for work, this is a great spot to sit at the counter and enjoy fantastic sushi. The fish is very fresh and Michael had great recommendations on sake pairings. Highly recommend the omakase - everything was excellent.

Michael was amazing! Promote this man ASAP!!!

A lot ot care is clearly taken in preparing the food. The soft shell crab is done to perfection. The Icelandic sea urchin was interesting but probably an acquired taste. Excellent attentive service, beautiful simpl3 cozy atmosphere and reasonable prices for this quality and freshness. Very highly recommended.

Superb food especially the Sashimi

A dinner to remember, without a doubt. I was looking for a good place to celebrate an anniversary and chose Yashin. We were rewarded with class service, fresh food, and a dedicated chef and team. Every aspect of the meal was outstanding. We ordered as much as we could and only wish we could have fit in more. The wagyu beef and bone marrow were sublime. The presentation on the aged tuna matched the succulent flavors. The omakase plate was fresh and exciting. To eat a good meal is such a joy and this was such a meal. Would certainly recommend it and look forward to returning. Five stars all the way.

Very poor service and treatment of guests

What a wonderful experience! Tastes that I have never had before! The staff are so knowledgeable and friendly, making it the most special experience. Thank you to all. A must.

Exceptional service and delicious sushi rolls. Highly recommended!

My mom and I had an amazing experience at Yashin! We didn't originally make the reser vation for omakase, but they kindly accommodated us and gave us an excellent omakase experience. Every single piece we ate was incredible, from appetizer, the main omakase course, to the additional desserts. It has a very traditional Japanese flavor, so we felt that this was a special and unique experience for us vs. a modern experience. We could tell the chef puts in so much care into each dish. We really hope to come back and dine at Yashin again when we revisit London!

Authentic sushi bar in the heart of Kensington. Delicious varied menu enhanced by changing specials. Great service. Exquisite sashimi.

Food was lovely sushi 🍣 was very nicely presented and the red wine was delicious waitress was also very friendly and helpful

Wonderful experience yet again. The food is second to none - so glad they still have wagyu sushi on the specials.

Michael was great. Very good food and nice atmosphere.

Delicious meal. Sushi was expertly crafted and the flavours were fantastic! We had the one by one ten and it was amazing 🤩. Everything was well paced and it wasn’t rushed at all. The Chefs and Maple were really attentive and even though we were one of the last guests we weren’t rushed out.

The best sushi restaurant in London! Amazing food and service!

The most delicious food that I had ever had in the UK. The chef was nice n the service was above the standard. Will surely recommend to my relatives n friends 😃

Jason was very friendly and provided great service! And as always, the food was incredible!

Amazing !!! Best place on earth.

Arguably the best Japanese fusion in the UK 😁

Wonderful food and waitress Malvina

Karina was lovely and attentive. Very pleased with our experience. The food was great.

Amazing food, Malvina our server was great. She was really helpful. Will definitely be back soon.

Worst service ever! Dosent respect clients. Food was not fresh…. Disappointed

Great food and excellent service from Malvina our waiters. She was very polite and explained all the dishes with great detail; although we were very indecisive her outstanding knowledge of the dishes helped us to have a great choice. Very good asset for the business. Thank you Malvina will definitely be back.

If you want great sushi, that she the right place. Delicious! Thank you chef. Thank you team for making this evening special. Definitely will be back.

Really nice sushi place. Great food and nice atmosphere. The waiters were friendly and happy to help with any recommendations. Was really interesting to see the sushi being made.

Absolutely gorgeous sushi tasting menu. With some naughty little meat moments scattered about.

One of the best sushi I’ve had yet. The service was excellent, Michael was very thoughtful and pleasant. I will most definitely be coming back!

Malvina our server was excellent! Food was incredible as well

I loved how I saw the people making it and how the waiter was really interactive with everyone! The food was so good a mouthwatering meal!

The food was outstanding, and Malvina's service last night was exceptional. She guided us through the menu, providing detailed explanations of each dish, including the omakase. We look forward to returning.

Very happy I stopped for lunch! I had the delicious sushi set and all the staff were very helpful and friendly. Will be back soon.

Great food, great service, lovely cozy restaurant. I’ll be coming back.

Malvina is very nice. Today is my birthday. She gave me a cake and a handwritten card. Food is good as well.

We loved everything we ordered, the quality of fish is incredible! Great service by Melvina.

Best sushi in London…full stop!! Amazing people and food, so impressed!

Best sushi in London and amazing service. Malvina was amazing and made us feel so welcome!

The food was AMAZING and I can not begin to explain how dedicated the service from Michael was. He gave amazing recommendations for drinks and was detailed in his explanation of what fish we were eating. He honestly made the experience a 10/10. This was a delightful omakase experience and I would recommend it to any sushi lovers!!

Amazing food and very good service from the staff team, especially Maple!! Will definitely come again!

Great food. Great atmosphere. Friendly staff and brilliant location. If you enjoy sushi and more this is the place to go. Authentic Japanese cuisine. Made mostly in front of you with love and attention to detail.

My favourite place for lunch in west London

Absolutely impressive quality and feeling!

The restaurant was very welcoming as you enter. The atmosphere was nice to and the staff are so polite. I recommend you to anyone who loves sushi. I will be definitely. Returning again next time for dinner

I have been coming to Yashin sushi on a very regular basis for years. Consistently good. I will keep returning. Also the staff is lovely. Service is friendly and very efficient. Keep up the great job!

Amazing atmosphere, great food with special customer service to match will be back

Great food, but was rather shocked/annoyed by being charged £1.50 for wasabi !!! Over 20 years eating sushi and I’ve never seen such a none-sense.

After over a decade, returning to Yashin felt like a nostalgic journey with familiar lighting decorations. The intimate counter bar seating added to the charm. Opted for the sushi omakase, soft shell crab salad, and miso soup – all exquisite. The sushi, a delightful reminiscent taste, paired perfectly with the amazing sake. Despite being the last guests at 9 pm, the service remained attentive, making our late dinner a thoroughly enjoyable experience.

Great tasting menu. 11 perfect pieces.

Did the one by one Omakase which was amazing taste wise, but didn't feel great value for money comparing it to other options on the menu. Service was attentive as you would expect at that price point.

Great atmosphere, great food, Aaron took great care of us

The best Japanese restaurant in London with amazing service from both lulu and Jason. Will definitely be back.

Omakase 11 takes you through different flavours and is presented in order to finish with the strongest flavor.

Every single dish was amazing, particularly recommend squid ink calamari 👌

The food is amaaazing! I love this place and come as often as I can.

Modern technique for 日本料理，but still reached perfect balance from traditional, the British staff so lovely, could speak decent 日本語，最高です!

I never fail to eat well here. The service is impeccable. The knowledge of the Sake list is top notch. And the quality of the fish is beyond excellent. Please note. The creativity of the dishes, plating and care taken is truly second to none. I’ve not had such beautifully made sushi outside of Japan apart from here. It’s perfect. Sit at the counter if you can to enjoy the full experience.

Sushi were yummlesious…🤤🤤🤤. Mr.Aren took very good care of us🫶🏻

Staff were lovely and the food exceptional. You don’t get given soy or wasabi and the sushi chef knows exactly how much is needed!!! Not cheap but a delicious treat. Make sure you try the ginger - superb.
