The best restaurants in United Kingdom serving Japanese food

Had a delicious lunch. Was too busy eating to take good pics. Loved the whole experience of the food being cooked at the table. The beef was delicious as was everything we had. Especially loved the prawns, chicken wings and bbq veggies. 50% off on most dishes until next week. Definitely worth a visit. Very good service.

Delicious food, great recommendations, great service. We had the salmon avocado roll, and it was just splendid. One of my family members had a pepper allergy and the staff was very mindful and attentive.

Came here with partner for Valentine's Lunch. Delicious Korean BBQ. Now don't have to go to New Malden. OK for standard sized wheelchair access as well.

My partner has been a number of times with clients and said we should try it. I was underwhelmed. The staff do not listen. We order about 6 dishes and I told the waiter I did not want them all together but one or two at a time. Seems they couldn't follow simple instructions and brought all the dishes out together. What was really disappointing that the hot dishes were at best luke warm so had been hanging around the kitchen for ages before being sent to the table. The restaurant was a third full on a Friday which if my experience was typical it probably explains why.

Very good sushi. Never had the Tokoyaki before it was tasty. Got via Uber Eats. Everything nicely prepared. Packaged well. Delivery was quick. Yummy!

Visited for a birthday meal at lunchtime on Saturday. Staff were great, food was amazing! We would definitely return! Recommend the loaded fries!

You might blink and miss this restaurant, the frontage is quite small and it’s also known as Rice Time. The interior is more of a cafe style than posh restaurant, although they do have an alcohol licence. Drawback is that it can get noisy, just loud chat from other diners! There are private and karaoke rooms upstairs, Toilets are upstairs, didn’t see a disabled toilet but there might be one on the ground level. Staff are friendly, service is prompt. The menu is authentic Japanese, I’ve travelled in Japan a few times. There are numerous dishes with plenty of options including vegan and vegetarian. The other SE Asian dishes are also authentic, have travelled around there. Portions are a generous size and prices are very good value. We all enjoyed our food and would probably return. Liked the variety of teas, would have had the matcha ice cream but they were out of it.

It was very delicious. My favourite is ebi tempura and gyoza!! It’s good for a late night experience with your friends and family.

Thank you to staff at there you are amazing. The food quality looks good and I can’t fault it. The tea a coffee is nice too and the food taste good.

Terrific food. Best gyoza (tofu) I've ever had. So tasty. The tofu soup-less ramen bowl was great too if a little salty. I'm definitely coming back. Best Japanese food I've had in London.

Bao where great but a very small portion. The sharing plates where all instantly forgettable unfortunately. All food arrived cold or cool at best. Previously visited at Spark and thought it was far better (Bao and Ramen on a few occasions). Total bill felt overpriced for the amount of food served. Disappointed overall.

I was really looking forward to our meal here tonight. As normal you turn up hungry but to be greeted with “there’s a bit of a wait because we’ve got a big order up stairs”, thought ok a wait will be 20 mins sounds ok. 60 mins later greeted with good sushi and substandard dry temaki. 25 minutes later our main course arrive, but which point dry fish (like chewing on cotton wool) and 85 minutes after walking g in anything would have done. Honestly thought about popping out to the Golden Arches to stave my insides eating themselves 45 mins in. If they knew there was a large order phone us and tell us can you turn up 30 mins later to stagger the kitchen…. Yep sounds reasonable. Left feeling significantly disappointed. Lots of apologises but nothing off the bill, no complimentary drinks, here you go full bill, a long long wait and left feeling bitterly disappointed. If you want quality food on time I’d honestly go somewhere else. If you’re unfortunate enough to be booked in have some snacks before turning up. On a positive drinks/cocktails delicious

I was really disappointed with the service at this restaurant this evening... it's advertised on tastecard with an offer of 2 for 1... however when we arrived we had a point blank 'the manager says no'. Now I understand there may have been a misunderstanding, but it was handled poorly and on principle we left. I was really disappointed as i really fancied sushi and I'm sure the food is delicious?! It's not about the money it's the principle... Don't advertise your restaurant on a 2 4 1 offer then not honor it? And if there is an issue offer a gesture of good will and management deal with it, don't send your poor waiter over with a message.

So firstly I should say that I’ve ordered from this restaurant before and eat inside; however I (and my wife) noticed the difference with the food quality over a year ago and due to this being a pricey restaurant we couldn’t take any more risk. So fast forwarding to today we’ve decided to give them another go and man oh man it was DISAPPOINTING a total of £48.50 and i collected the food only to get home and there’s only 1 set of chopsticks and 2 sachets of soy sauce and the wasabi’s is so tiny but ok maybe the food will redeem all of that we thought… wrong 😑 WRONG … the food was disappointing in every way even the rice I got tasted old .. I wouldn’t recommend this place as it stands to anyone.. it’s costly and not worth it even if it was cheaper… too bad because I really use to enjoy eating from there.

Delicious home cooked food from hard working Korean family including dumplings, Japanese favourites, Bao buns and bimbap. They also make their own pastries which I have not tried but look yummy. Includes vegan and gf options. In summer there are benches on the pedestrianised street as well as tables inside. A very individual restaurant slightly off the beaten track in Winchester, tends to be busy but well worth the wait.
