The best restaurants in United Kingdom serving Japanese food

Great small Japanese restaurant! Only has room for around 12 clients at a time so do reserve if you want to go. I've finally decided to sit down and write a review after we've been there 3 times in the last couple of months. We love the food - always fresh, refined, tasty and authentic. The service is fast and reliable. We also enjoy the customer service which is always on point. We've been with our 2 yo daughter and they are very welcoming and helpful. Like I have said before, if you are planning to go be mindful that it is a tiny restaurant and try to reserve in advance.

Lovely restaurant and great to see this sort of place doing well in Dunstable. Food was beautiful and the desserts were gorgeous 😋 Pricing is reasonable too.

Popped in during a dog walk got a macha latte and Veg Curry Bun, soso good! Can't wait to try more from this bakery. Will be back every week!

We went for dinner on a Thursday night. We called to ask if we could go at 21:30. They said ok but flagged last orders were at 21:45 and they close at 22:00 (not sure how they could expect anyone ordering and eating in 15 minutes unless they have a bowl of lukewarm soup). We had ordered by 21:35 and left at 22:09. The speediest £100 they have ever seen. They made it clear from the start they didn’t want us there, obviously concerned about risking of closing a few minutes later than usual, despite accepting our reservation. The service was short and rude, but the cherry on the cake came when I asked to use the toilet and their answer was: sorry, no, we have just cleaned it! Never again.

The food was good, especially the Miso Soup ! The quality is great and the prices are really low compared to others asian restaurants. The waiter is extremely nice and heartwarming ! 100% recommend !

Awful.The food was off, and it has put me off eating salmon after the terrible experience that I had at this place.Do not recommend.It was also expensive and not worth the price with slow service.

We went in after seeing the soufflés on the board outside and we were not disappointed. The flavours were incredible. The soufflés were light and fluffy. Absolutely delicious.

Absolutely 10/10. Cannot fault the food, service or ambiance definitely coming here again. The staff were engaged abd it was the best selection of dishes I have had in any UK sushi restaurant. Some great new flavours and combinations.

Tres cosas:  1. El lugar en sí es adorable. Escondido dentro de un mercado discreto. El lugar es minúsculo. Tres mesas Cocina abierta. ¡Se lleva íntimo al siguiente nivel!  2. Acabo de regresar de 3 semanas en Japón. Y creo que la comida aquí es propia. Oscila en mi opinión.  3. BYOB. Además de ser extremadamente asequible. Puedes traer bebidas del exterior! Esto lo convierte en el lugar perfecto para una cita nocturna o una noche relajada con amigos. No puedo recomendar este lugar lo suficiente. 10/10. Fantástico.

Absolutely brilliant from start to finish. Waitress, Margarett, was really helpful when we arrived, explained the menu really well and recommended the bento boxes which meant we got to try loads of different dishes. Food was amazing, so delicious and really good value. I had mentioned in the booking that it was my girlfriend's birthday and they surprised us with a huge slice of cake for dessert, which was a lovely surprise. Would 100% recommend and can't wait to go again and try some of the other dishes.

Really interesting unusual restaurant with separate food stalls where you select your food and then take them back to your table. I ate from the Mexican menu which was delicious. Other people on my table 8 from a time menu and they were also very happy with their food.

Me and my partner were very excited about this restaurant considering the reservation time (we booked in March for May. This was as their reservations must be booked at least 1-2 months in advance, and I do not blame them. Situated above the old Television Centre in White City, the 12 seats provide a panoramic view across the city. The decor was simple yet elegant. In terms of service, this was by far the most attentive service we have ever experienced. From the moment we entered, we were welcomed and looked after up until we left the restaurant. I cannot praise the staff more. For the dining experience, Endo and his team made sure the atmosphere was just right, we were transported away from the busy London life and fully immersed with the 22 courses. The ingredient was also fresh- emphasis on fresh, all the pieces of fish tasted great and flavourful. There were also luxury toppings such as caviar and truffles which were also an added bonus, but considering the price, it is expected. I honestly cannot praise this restaurant more and would definitely recommend this to anyone who loves sushi!!

My mom knows I wanted to eat here for a while now and she was away so she got someone she knows to get some for me without my knowledge it was a tastiest surprise 😋 it tasted amazing
