The best restaurants serving Japanese food in London

Realmente no te puedes equivocar con la comida en itsu la comida es saludable y muy sabrosa. Serice es siempre rápido.

We live on the island and drink here a few times per week. My girlfriend loves the cocktails - always well made and a decent price too. I love the table service and the friendly service. Kudos to Dean, Imie (I hope I spelled that right) and Val

I had edamame beans and sushi, service was extremely fast. It’s like buying sushi in a supermarket, you get wasabi, ginger etc in very small bags. The quality of the food was slightly above supermarket standard, but not more.

Bonito muffin de arándanos, el café americano fue el peor que he probado en mucho tiempo. Un sorbo y tuve que devolverlo. El personal lo retiró, pero no hubo oferta de reemplazo o alternativa. Servicio al cliente inexistente en este lugar. Los turistas tengan cuidado.

A tasty and convenient little restaurant near St Katherine’s Docks which I regularly visit for lunch. It does tend to be rammed for about 30 minutes and then empty the rest of the time as local workers pile in for lunch, but service moves reasonably swift. The menu hasn’t changed or expanded in over a year with a very limited set of chicken with rice and a different sauce. Simple but works and the inside is nicely done.

A small patisserie with a good selection of cakes and tea. I’ve always longed for a place that serves matcha desserts in Canary Wharf. For matcha lovers, they do a creamy and light matcha soft serve, which is perfect for a tea time treat.

Tantalising menu of Japanese and Korean favourites, and the food is made to order and well executed. Great for a bite before the cinema. Stylistically it is half between fast food joint and high street restaurant, and it lacks ambience, which may put people off. That’s a shame as the food offering is good.

I've been here quite a lot and have a lot of happy memories. The food was always good and service was quick and polite. Such a shame they seem to have shut down. I hope whatever they do next goes well.

Experiencia encantadora, con un gran servicio y quedé impresionado con sabores y la presentación. El lugar se presta para personas entretenido y entrañables de la comida.

Hace un tiempo estuve en Camden Town en busca de té y tenían eso. Desafortunadamente, se quedaron sin bollos, así que no tenían los tés de crema, de lo contrario hubiera sido perfecto. En general, es un lugar agradable y tranquilo, lejos del ajetreo y el bullicio de la ciudad de Camden.

On a street where there are at least two of every kind of restaurant that you can think of, this place strikes a bit of a different tone. The entire “concept” changes every few months - right now, they have the Ivan Ramen folks in there trying out a new menu in the evenings, they’ve got the Just Baked folks doing (big, scary, awesome) desserts during the day, and there’ll be something completely different in a few months. Basically, you are invented to come back for the consistently good people/service, but the menu is wildly different - not a bad idea at all!

This is part-restaurant and part-supermarket and this appears to be reflected in the way you have to order! When you arrive you find a "bar" on the left-hand side and the sushi kitchen on the right - and the two, although staffed by the same team, function independently! It's primarily designed as a take-away but you can sit and enjoy your food on the premises. But here an issue is raised! You can queue for you food beside a sake/beer fridge (Kirin: £2.40) but you can only purchase the beer to take-away. To buy a drink to eat-in you have to cross to the other side and then pay £2.90! This is more than a little odd! Anyway - that aside, the sushi and sashmi was very fresh and delicious and to be recommended!

Food is nice enough, cocktails are lovely, my low rating is for the very weird taste in music (and service). We’ve been a few times now and it’s always the same - pop music?? It has so much potential to be a great little spot if only that was more suited to the vibe. I had also emailed a couple of times to check if they played different music on different nights to book again for a birthday, but no response. Unfortunately ambience and service is equally as important to us as the food so we chose not to go back because of that…. However, if you like mainstream pop music while you eat Japanese food in a dimly lit chilled setting, with uninterested staff, this is your place 🙃

The restaurant felt really nice inside, the lighting was great and I loved the partition between the entrance and seating area, which meant there was no foot traffic alongside the table. The staff were welcoming on arrival but the friendliness didn’t really continue - it was a bit bland in terms of service - no conversation, menu explanations, no check back or second drinks offered, no follow up after finishing a dish to see if any more / any pudding / the bill was wanted. The food was presented lovely. The mixed tempura was really unusual and I appreciated the variety which came with it, but for mostly battered vegetables it was on the expensive side. The sushi was nice - not as tender/melt in the mouth as I’d expect for the environment/cost but nice none the less.

Absolutely fantastic. I love ordering from them!!!
