I came here to celebrate my birthday and the service was amazing! We were a big group and it can be hard to manage but I really appreciate the delicious food and the atmosphere! Would love to come again.

Second visit for dinner in Sunday evening left us disappointed. The restaurant was extremely cold, where we were seated, and had to wear our coats throughout dinner. The noise where we sat from the downstairs toilet area, suggested arguing and shouting going on which we realized was due to staff who were staying after their shift. Four dishes we ordered had run out including a particular sauce and the wine I wanted ran out, so I was very restricted with choices and one of our drink glasses had lipstick on it. The food overall was very good and the waitress was helpful, hence the overall score of eight. For full price this would not be value for money but justifiable for 50% off..

This is a hidden gem! We were warmly welcomed. The food was delicious and service was swift, professional and super friendly. There was live music, which was not too loud. Pleasant atmosphere, making for a great night. Thank you! I’d definitely recommend it!

No joke, best sushi I’ve had in London. Actually, no. Best sushi I’ve had all year. As soon as the first plate arrived, I knew that this will be amazing. Every dish was absolutely 10/10. Extraordinarily experience.

Excellent food and ambience at night time. There’s a lovely fire place which adds cosiness to the restaurant. They are flexible with their drinks and sushi esp if you want crispy salmon making etc. The spicy items tend to be a bit spicy for my taste but you can warn them ahead of ordering. The price of food is reasonable for the quality you get.

The restaurant was almost empty for Friday lunch and very cold (temperature). We were eating with our wintercoats on. I was recommended this place and invited friends for lunch. They were happy with the food and service, but cold. I was offered 20% from The Fork reservation, but didn't get the discount. Please put some heating on for your guests : )
