The best restaurants serving Japanese food in England

Oishi is it's name sake. Delightful little place with great staff, and it stokes lots of genuine Japanese drinks I haven't seen outside of Japan (the plum wine is amazing)

Fuimos con muchas esperanzas. Las críticas parecían buenas, así como el menú y las fotos de la comida. El personal era absolutamente encantador, el lugar era magnífico. Pedimos un rollo de sushi cada uno, ya que no teníamos demasiado hambre y teníamos poco tiempo. Los precios eran un 25% más altos que nuestro lugar de sushi favorito en Newcastle. El cangrejo de concha suave llegó primero, sabroso y bien presentado, pero una pequeña porción con solo 6 piezas delgadas por £ 16. Atún de aleta azul con mayo picante vino a continuación y era soso, no hay otra manera de describirlo. Sin especias, y parecía y sabía a mayonesa de atún que harías con ingredientes de Aldi. Presentado de forma mesurada, con unos trozos de lechuga que sobresalen del extremo y un chorrito de mayonesa. 8 piezas esta vez, pero pequeñas. Muy pobre por £ 15. Para ser justos con ellos, satisfizo la descripción de su menú, aparte de la completa falta de especias, simplemente no era bueno. Una pena que el menú y las fotos de la comida se veían excelentes. Tal vez pedimos mal, pero esperaba mucho más por £ 31. Basado en la comida sola habría sido una revisión de 1 *, pero el personal era todo encantador, de ahí el 2 *. Difícil imaginar que volveríamos ya que tendríamos 2 rollos de sushi más grandes y sabrosos, más un poco de nigiri, por el mismo precio en nuestro lugar habitual en Newcastle.

I looked this place up on Trip Advisor, drove over 5 miles to get there, and arrived at 20.15. It is a tiny little place, with probably enough room for 12 seated. On arrival I was told that I would not be able to eat there, only take away. There were only four other diners. I had endured a long day at work and wanted to sit down with a beer and have a couple of sushi rolls. I explained that the website indicated that the place was open until 21.30, but was told again emphatically (and rather abrasively) that they were taking no more sit downs that evening. I was offered no explanation for this. No apology or sympathy was forthcoming. The guy behind the counter simply didn't care. I have no idea what the food is like as I went elsewhere, never to return. Save your money and spend it where the staff have a little more personality and appreciation for your custom. Appalling!

Sushi and Rolls was fresh, and made to order (you can tell). The Katsu chicken was larger than most. The Korean rices were good but small for the price. Otherwise overall, decent food!

Wow absolutely delicious food! Went with family collected order to eat at home. We ordered the platters, katsu curry, chicken teriyaki and a few more items. We thoroughly enjoyed it all, service was 10/10, food was 10/10. Good price and portion sizes were very good too. Will definitely be ordering every week now!

Food never arrived , called restaurant and they said they're not on just eat. Hungry and disappointed.

Avoid ! Messed up my order and failed to make it right when I raised it with them. What we did get was tiny portions, lukewarm and not that pleasant.

Tanto la comida como el servicio fue excelente. Todos los platos han sido buenísimos. Desde los entrantes como hasta el postre, todo buenísimo.

Excellent food. Great menu. Deliver locally. Soft shell crab is a must. Always enjoy every meal from here. Will definitely be ordering again

Food is amazing and is our go to for asian food when eating take out. Not expensive & always fast!

Thank you for the service, it was excellent. The manager is a man with integrity. Definitely give them a try. Thank you to the entire team for making sure my kids were okay also.

Fantastic food and lovely delivery drivers, very happy to be a regular

I came here on a Saturday evening for a nice meal with some family and everything was great, the food was amazing and great value (especially the squid, diced prawn tempura and the banana tempura). All the staff were really great too ensuring we were taken care off, and it showed how passionate the owner was towards her restaurant. Definitely recommend for a nice relaxed meal with amazing food.

late and missing two things of what I ordered.

Enjoyable family meal. Kid friendly.
