9/10This is just a beautiful little restaurant tucked away, like a little secret, in the middle of 7 dials/ Covent Garden. The food was amazing - though as you would expect in the West End, a little bit racy on the price front. Service was ok, but let down by inattentive drinks service, which for a Japanese restaurant is a definite no-no. Food was very very good. The slices of fish were a little too thick, but I think this is a decision that the chefs have purposely made. The chef's were Thai, serving Japanese food and I assume the training was probably not classically Japanese trained. However, still very impressive. It's going to be a new go to in the area.

10/10Oh my this was delicious! What an intimate spot in London, where you can watch the chefs prepare your dishes (it made it all very exciting). Honestly some of the best food I've had in London in a good while. A very memorable dinner 😁

9/10Amazing roll-dishes freshly prepared in front of you! Really impressed with the quality of the food. The cocktails were also excellent. Make sure to book in advance, as the place has limited seats available. You will not regret going there!

10/10Amazing seafood prepared right before your eyes. Great value for money given the quality of food, including caviar, uni and toro.

10/10Very good sushi. The Nori on the handrolls was superb and the fish was chopped and mixed as each was made. Beautiful room, with less than 20 seats at the bar and a relaxed but elegant feel. Reserved but efficient and pleasant service.

10/10Ukiyo Handroll Bar, located in London, is a standout in the city’s dining scene. Having dined with top omakase chefs, I can say the chef at Ukiyo deserves to be among them. The precision and creativity in every dish reflect Michelin-level expertise. We began with the yellowtail tiradito, perfectly balanced with acidity and spice, its buttery texture melting on the palate. Every nigiri we sampled had its own character, from the delicate brush of soy to the smokiness of torched selections. The fish was fresh and prepared with masterful skill, highlighting the chef’s talent. However, the only flaw was the lighting and décor, which didn’t match the food’s excellence. The atmosphere felt too harsh for the intimate experience Ukiyo’s food demands. Despite that, I hope Ukiyo maintains its high standards. I’ll be returning, though I fear it may soon be difficult to secure a reservation. For now, it’s a hidden gem worth discovering. Rating: 9/10

10/10Food was amazing. Love the whole concept, quite different from other sushi restaurants I've been to in the UK. Sushi chef prepares the rolls in front of you, no need for a Waitrose to bring it over it's just passed over to you by the chef!!
