The best restaurants serving Japanese food in Abbey Bath and North East Somerset South West

As a fan of Japanese cuisine, I wanted to come here per the excellent reviews I saw but I now slightly regret this. Staff were welcoming when we got in, but had not made an effort to clean our very sticky table (they had a hour between lunch and dinner servings...a break to do something...) or the floor underneath the table (I didn't know a mushroom was under my shoe until midway -_-). My other half wasn't impressed. Oh, and the menus were a little sticky as well. Next, the food. My gosh it was small. And expensive! To be honest, 5 dishes were enough so I will give them credit for that as it wasn't a belly burster, but the tastes of them were fine. Nothing amazing. And our waitress was...fine? Average. And lastly, the receipt. A 12.5% service charge which made a meal jump up from £30~ to mid £40. I get it goes to the staff, but it seems a lot. A 5% service charge might be more reasonable. I understand the culture in America, but in the UK it seems silly.

The “Bath Landlady” has done a fantastic job at the pub. Was a pub with a reputation of Fosters lager, and some interesting people. Now it’s cool, with an excellent selection of drinks, it’s been stripped back and now feels like a proper pub, with plenty of live music and a hip clientele. As a former Bath pub landlord, this pub is bang on

Probably one of the most reasonable priced value for money restaurants with very good taste and excellent portion size. The best sushi I ate in a while. Very fresh and good value for the real thing. Highly recommend.

Food was decent but service was a little slow.

The food was spectacular. The sushi was the softest and most wonderfully textured. The duck was done off the most flavoursome and non fatty we've ever had. Service was very helpful and pleasant but was a little slow, she was rushed off her feet. An utterly fantastic and memorable evening and worth every penny.
