    Stunning venue overlooking St Pauls. Flavours were amazing and presentation out of this world. Took my sister there for a long overdue girls night, Antonio was our server and couldn't have been more helpful and attentive.

    The food was excellent, but the service left much to be desired. The male waiters were lovely and accommodating, but the female server who attended to us was abrupt and rude. One of our friends is pregnant, and we requested well-cooked food for her. When she brought it over, she commented, "This is the stuff you don’t like," which was not the case—our friend simply cannot eat raw food. I also tried to ask her for recommendations, but she cut me off and told me not to interrupt, even though I wasn’t. While the food and overall ambiance were great, her attitude dampened what could have been an otherwise pleasant experience.

    Had a really enjoyable lunch here today. Delicious food and would definitely recommend. Having lived in Japan, I would say this is some of the best food out of the country that I’ve had in a very chilled atmosphere.

    Excellent omakase experience at kikuchi. The service was brilliant with attentive and knowledgeable staff. I recommend counter seating so you can watch Master Kikuchi prepare each dish with care and precision.
