The best restaurants serving Japanese food in Cheltenham South West

We live here and eat out a lot. Every time I’ve been to either Nagomi or Pyesta I’ve had an asking night. Portia is just unbelievably amazing. The food is great and the experience is fabulous. You’ll love it.

I’ve always loved wagamamas but sadly the food seems to be going down hill. I ordered a tofu curry but the veg was all undercooked. The whole meal was pretty thrown together and £13 just doesn’t reflect what you’re paying for. I’ve ordered genuine cuisine for less and have had much better. Don’t think I’ll visit again sadly.

I went here for my birthday, while celebrating in the Cotswolds. Lovely dinner - the black miso cod and wagyu don were both incredible dishes - couldn’t get enough. The service (namely, Bernie and Amelyn) were fantastic. We also shared the octopus kingdom, which felt so special and was also delicious! Decorations so beautiful and great overall vibe.
