The best restaurants serving Japanese food in De Beauvoir Hackney London

Whenever I visit my daughter in London, this place is a must-visit for me. They serve incredibly satisfying portions of delicious food at reasonable prices. I've never been able to finish a whole dish because the portions are so huge! Although the place is small, the staff is absolutely fantastic. They make you feel right at home with their friendly and welcoming demeanor. It creates a cozy atmosphere that adds to the overall experience.

This was our third visit to La Bibliotheque. The restaurant is a very welcome addition to the area and is deserving of its excellent reviews. It’s romantic and beautifully decorated, and the atmosphere is relaxed. The quality of the food on each occasion was really excellent, with dishes cleverly put together in terms of taste and texture. It is difficult to resist filling up on their truly delicious bread and flavoured butter at the start of the meal. On the three occasions we have visited there was no dish we didn’t enjoy,but the highlights on each occasion were the desserts, from a stunning beetroot cake with yoghurt to the incredible Tunworth ice cream with truffle and balsamic vinegar. Customer service really matters to this restaurant, and no review would be complete without mentioning Charlotte, who is a real gem and who looked after us brilliantly. We very much look forward to our next visit.

A few days ago I visited this cafe with a friend. A Japanese male staff member behaved so rudely to us (he ignored us when we entered, did not understand English at all, kept an abrupt and rude attitude overall etc). So I messaged them later about our bad experience through Instagram, in a fairly polite manner. They got back to me two days later, but it just said 'Haha, You are wrong, but I see no benefit to explain that to you.' That clearly shows I am not wrong... I do not recommend this place to anyone. There are many excellent Japanese cafes in London, such as Tsujiri and WA cafe, where the service is decent and the food is much better too. 日本人の男性スタッフの対応が驚くほどひどく、イギリス人の友人も私も気分を害したのでその旨、インスタ経由でメッセージを送ったところ、数日後に「w 了解です。誤解ですがメリットがないので説明はしません」と返事が来て驚きました。もちろんお勧めしません。ティーカップが私の分も友人の分も欠けていたのも気になりました。

Not a good day. Food is not recommended at all. The place is unbelievable tiny. You can barely talk
