The best restaurants serving Japanese food in West Midlands

Really lovely food, beautiful presentation. Service very friendly and cosy atmosphere. Would definitely go back again.

Es un poco un Tardis. . mucho biger por dentro de lo que esperaba. Cervezas decentes, buen ambiente y buena música, incluso en días de partido. Definitivamente recomendado.

Probably one of my most favourite places to go! Me and my wife love going here as the food is amazing and the service is the best!

Amazing food. We had tuna tartare and sushi tacos to start, and the Volcano roll, nigiri and pork ramen for main. All were exceptional. Service and ambience were great. I love sushi and am so happy to have found this restaurant!

I had the chilli chicken bao bun and a side of Japanese dirty fries, and for my first time ever visiting the franchise, I was not disappointed! I was served by Sangmu, who was lovely and quite efficient. Honestly, 10/10, loved the vibes, the food and the people. Eat. Here.

I always walked by this place without looking in, but one day I tried it and it's now my favourite sushi place. The staff are always very polite and food arrives super quickly. It's reasonably priced and has never disappointed me yet!

We were booked into a different restaurant, but our need for Thai styler food was greater, we searched for Thai style and happened to come across Bombos. We did our checking of previous reviews and were impressed. We booked and went there Friday night (7th Feb 2025). The greeting from Spike was genuine, warm, friendly, and with a grace to make you feel appreciated. Spike was helpful with the menu and genuinely engaged in a general chatter with enthusiasm, a nice touch as some places don't engage. The menu was a delight to read, mouthwatering stories of each dish. The delight was that the menu was not vast, which in my opinion is a great thing, as you get quality from the dishes they do and do well, rather than a myriad of dishes that could do better. So, a top score from us. We ordered, my wife and I, starters of Chicken Tatsutaage and I had Octopus Balls. All I can say here is...... OMG. My wife doesn't go overboard for a fish dish, but she absolutely loved the Octopus Balls. We both loved the two starters. They arrived, well presented, with clearly both love and attention, with an almost painted finish, they looked that nice. What a fabulous start to our experience of Bombos. The mains we ordered were Chicken Katsu Curry together with Bibimbap (Chicken) . We were NOT disappointed. The presentation was sublime, careful, delicate, with panache from someone who loves their job and takes pride. The flavours were an abudance of sensor hitting delights, there was nothing to fault. We will be back to enjoy the rest of the menu, we cannot wait to get there again. Thank you, Bombos.

Incredibly Fresh food, great customer service, the quality of food is super high absolutely amazing would recommend to any sushi lover!!:)

Very tasty food, friendly polite staff, lovely decor and very relaxing, will be going again when I am next in Birmingham.

Delish food with amazing atmosphere at really decent prices. Also no service charge which is rare now days!

**UPDATE - Sadly now closed!** Incredible experience! Wonderful service, absolutely amazing food, excellent quality drinks. We went for the bottomless summer menu, tried all the vegetarian dishes which were all outstanding and amazing value. The staff were really attentive and warm. Best Japanese food we’ve had outside of Japan! Made our wedding anniversary extremely special and we can’t wait to visit again with friends. Thank you Sushido!

I loved it!!! Got the early dinner set and there was plenty of food imo and the chef was great!!!

Highly recommend this restaurant, everything we ordered was perfectly made and service was so quick and welcoming. We had the souyou pork ramen and were blown away by the taste and quality! The Sakura cocktail was also a delightful surprise which really added to our meal experience. A hidden gem in a bustling city - give them a try if you haven't already!

Tuna’s color was not appealing presented on the table. When I tried it, it’s bad. Worst tuna I had. 1 score (from 1-5, low to high) I also ordered Veg Ramen. Not surprising, it’s not close to any Japanese taste Ramen I had. My general impression is this is not any kind of real Japanese food I had. Environment and service are okay; but food is not good at all. After all, I came for the real Japanese taste. I have to say, I am disappointed! On hindsight, I probably would have a very good quality Japanese food with the amount of price I paid in London, Japan, Shanghai, USA.. 环境和服务还OK；但食物质量和味道，或许是我尝试过最不地道的日式料理。 今天点了金枪鱼和素面，说实话很失望。金枪鱼的颜色一上桌就觉得品质不高，硬着头皮尝试了几块，口感很一般。 食物的质量和价格不成正比。

I'm always ordered from here on deiveroo and excellent food everytime we love it so good value for money and it fills us all so definitely generous portions this such a phenomenal place i would also like to say the staff who deliver are so polite thank you
