The best restaurants serving Japanese food in South East

Been eating Kokoro for over 10 years, and it remains a reliable comfort food after all these years. Would recommend half chilli chicken and half katsu chicken + curry sauce on the side. Makes for a wonderful blend of textures with a juicy and perfectly spicy dish that you can keep topping up the curry sauce in

The sushi isn't very fresh, to be honest. And the prices are similar to those you would get in a London restaurant, so I think we would opt to go somewhere else next time.

Had lunch here whilst visiting a craft market. The quality of food was reasonable. They had enough cooks but didn't seem to have enough serving staff. My main issue was when I paid I was shown an ecopy of the receipt on a small PDA type device (hard to see properly) and only received my receipt by email. Once I had a proper look at it I'd been overcharged for two dishes when I only had one. I complained to head office from the email on the receipt and they did correct it a couple of days later.

shrimp tempura was not de veined and full of poop, we then asked for a clean portion, they took the prawns and then came back out 5 minutes later with the SAME plate of dirty tempura… after asking again we finally got some de veined prawns. the service was okay however. food came out at a good pace, but was mediocre and flavourless at best.

You pay for what you get basically. The price point is cheap for a Japanese restaurant but the quality is average.

Disappointed with our family visit to Yo Sushi in Guildford this evening. As we walked past Wagamama on the way to our meal, they had a long queue coming out of the door. I worried therefore that Yo Sushi might be similarly busy, early on a Saturday evening. Not so! The restaurant was completely empty. On entering we stood at the ‘welcome’ sign for a good couple of minutes before anyone even acknowledged us. Eventually a rather surly waitress showed us to a table. On the way to our table we walked past tables that were filthy and there was rubbish on the floor (which wasn’t picked up during our visit). We waited a fair while for a drinks order to be taken. The couple of waiting staff seemed more interested in the orders for collection / delivery of which there seemed to be lots. To be fair, we enjoyed the sushi but at £120.00 for a family of three, this was an expensive outing for a distinctly underwhelming experience. Should have gone to Wagamamas!

Pizza delgada de buena contextura y agradable sabor. Bien atendido y rápido. Precios standard. Lugar acogedor.

Avoid at all costs! I ate the vegetarian noodles and prawn katsu) which were heated up in a microwave. Massive red flag, I should have known better. felt sick within minutes, had diarrhoea within 2 hours. Should be reported for healthy and safety

Unfortunately had a really poor experience here. Staff weren’t friendly whatsoever, you get charged more by approximately £1 per item for eating in?? Despite not being given any different service whatsoever than if you were to take it away? School dinner type trays, take-away unnecessary plastic packing. You have to pay extra for soy sauce and wasabi…dirty tables, seats all stained with soy sauce, toilets dirty. Certainly won’t be returning here nor any other Wasabi for that matter.

The new cafe round the corner was fully booked (Saturday lunchtime) so we tried here - but wish we hadn't. Ordered two Welsh rarebits, paid and sat a table. After a while someone came over and said they only had one left so we changed the second to a cheese and ham toastie. After an eternity they finally came - the rarebit was flat and just tasted of melted cheese with a bit of ham - no flavour. You would think at Waitrose they would use decent ham but no, the ham in the toastie was just the thin, processed type. We left distinctly underwhelmed and won't go again.

Went in to pick up some desserts for a few days time as noticed before they have a long shelf life. Hardly any doryaki left but I took the last two. Went to pay to find they only take card payments, but they couldn't their card machines to work! Spent nearly 15 minutes waiting for them totry re-booting, trying contactless and pin options. Eventually looked at taking cash but they had no change. I didn't have the exact money so they tried asking me to buy less or more to fit to a note value! Eventually they found some change. Got my desserts home quickly as I couldn't after being out of the fridge longer than planned, only to find these were previously frozen and have to be used within 4 days of being defrosted. No indication of when defrosted so I cannot use them in a few days as planned. Use by date is only for their use if the item remaina frozen - not sure it is ok to sell pre-packaged food to customers without a use by date? Wasted my time and money; today was enough to put me off going back.

Came here for supper after church with the other young adults from church. It would be helpful if the staff were more knowledgeable about allergies because while I can eat anything, one of the others is gluten free and for a moment it looked like there wouldn’t be anything suitable (but eventually something was identified on the menu that she could eat ). Their lack of knowledge of the constituents of particular items was also unhelpful to me when I was trying to choose from the available customisations for what I wanted to order for myself.

We ordered the breakfast with freshly poached eggs leek and spinach based on an attractive photograph outside. What we got looked like a bowl of dishwasher water with leaves floating in it. The freshly poached eggs were like last nights hard boiled eggs and we didn’t find any leeks. It was edible but dreadful and nothing resembling the photograph. The place was empty and I now know why.

We were going to have a Leon's but having seen Chozen Noodle we ordered from them. I had the Red Thai curry with noodles which was very nice. Daughter had the chicken katsu curry which she said was ok.

We went there today for lunch and wanted to give a big shout out to the amazing staff. We had a voucher, which they hadn’t seen before, but they went above and beyond to make sure we could use it. They were so friendly and attentive during our meal and made some top recommendations. Even though the venue was at full capacity, the staff made every effort to check on us. They’re a total asset to the place. The food was delicious, as were the cocktails. Overall, a really lovely experience. Will 100% be going back!
