Art Sushi is exquisite. From the atmosphere to the food and service, we can never fault it. We visited last night on a rare child free date night, and being heavily pregnant the team were given free rein to choose suitable dishes for us, and they did not disappoint. Every dish was beautifully presented, and equally divine in flavour. We left feeling just the right amount of full. Chef Kamil is an incredible talent and his staff are outstanding at what they do. We will be back when we next get the opportunity! Thank you very much for another wonderful experience Art Sushi team!

We weren’t asked if we could get our coats hung up. We waited ages to place our order. We couldn’t change menu to have appetisers from a la carte instead of starters from the xmas menu. We were overcharged by £100!
