The best restaurants serving Japanese food in England

Had Sushi for the first time and loved their platter the staff is very good neat clean place and awesome food.

Fácil de bajada y siempre lleno de gente, su excelente comida japonesa hoy en día, dieron a los problemas iniciales con arroz no estar lo suficientemente bueno y ahora deliciosa

Visited here a couple of weeks ago with friends. It took a long time to get served despite not being busy and dishes came at random times: I got my starter and main together. The food is quite good, however the Korean barbecue is disappointing as it is electric and the bibimbap didn't contain an egg and there was Japanese dishes on the menu - it didn't feel authentic.

The food is delicious. Wagyu beef burgers for the kids, teriyaki chicken burger for me, absolutely divine. Great ambiance, staff welcoming and friendly, really lovely. Happened upon by accident but will be back for the miso pork and entire dessert menu.

Nos detuvimos en Itsu a media tarde para tomar un aperitivo. Mucha variedad de platos en una amplia gama de puntos de precio. Es bueno encontrar una olla de frijoles edamame.

Had a craving for sushi somewhere in-between the high high end and Yo Sushi and chanced upon this place. Intending to do a lunch walk in for a la carte or one of their set menus, I was instead offered their Omakase menu only which is usually available via prior reservation only, more courses and of course, more expensive. The sitting was only half full so not sure why a la carte etc wasn't available. The edamame, dessert and miso were forgettable and barely deserving to make up three of the 11 courses (dessert was a scoop of ice cream) and the fish itself was good, prepared in front of you as you'd expect. It wasn't clear that the fish was "dry aged" so the flavours of classics were unique if familiar. The atmosphere was casual at lunch - this isn't pretentious although they still seem to be ironing out some kinks with the service - e.g some things were explained to one end of the counter and not the other. In addition to the lack of an a la option as suggested on their website (or set menus as featured in other reviews), the lunch Omakase is cheaper than on their website, which I only noticed after the fact as the so called encore sushi of your choice promised on the website was not offered so I double checked to ensure I had not misread. Overall a decent experience but some consistency in marketing/expectations management needed.

My sister went here to try bubble tea for the first time. The staff were friendly and knowledgeable about vegan choices and I ended up getting a hot chocolate too. The bubble tea was nice and hot chocolate was served at perfect drinking temperature. The one issue is that it is on the pricier end for the market, especially the food options.

Very tasty food, friendly polite staff, lovely decor and very relaxing, will be going again when I am next in Birmingham.

Great service! Friendly staff and lovely food! Overall an excellent experience. Can recommend without reservation. X

Finding good value good sushi lunches in London has become rather difficult as there is a lot of poor quality sushi that is unpleasant around. The chains have also got expensive and have poor choice (everything is only salmon based) and lack consistency between locations. So I was grateful that a friend recommended this place 15 mins from the office. The sushi here is fresh and clearly made on site - I particularly like that they still serve tuna which the chains don't serve anymore. The fish is fresh and good quality sashimi grade, with little fat which many places including the major chains often have (thick white stripes). The meal deal that includes a mix sushi set is also great value at £8.99 and includes the set, a fruit salad/wasabi peas/edamame and a soft drink or miso soup. The staff are also friendly and serve with care and love. Keep at what you are doing!

The staff at Island Poke were more than helpful and showed more than enough graciousness , probably one of the top 3 most helpful restaurants at Camden Market , they even handed out samples which over satisfactory!

What a great find! Sushi made to order, groceries and a variety of drinks. Interactive screen to order food. Staff friendly and attentive

Excellent as always. Salt and pepper chicken is out of this world. Ray and team are brilliant.

We stumbled on this place for a pre kings theatre catch up - WHAT A FIND! Cute little place where you’re in your own little area, food was amazing, great friendly service, everything you want! They were turning people away, so would recommend booking in advance.

We came here July 2023. The waitress is so rude! We were asked to eat the incorrect dish! But it’s her fault! And also when we asked the bill, we waited over 15 minutes… in the end another waiter gave the bill. We paid everything including service charge! This is our fault, we should asked remove the service charge, because the service too bad! Anyway, never come again!
