    The chef tasting menu is phenomenal! Chef always crafts the perfect dishes. The handrolls are 10/10 and I recommend the tuna tartare appetizers. The food is always extremely fresh, the atmosphere is always warm and lively and the staff are very attentive and inviting. One of the best restaurants in London

    The food is delicious. The ambiance is relaxing and perfect for dates. If I were to change something, it would be the chair.. they are a bit low compared to the table. Otherwise, great experience. Will definitely comeback.

    Had a fabulous time but did not like how short the stools were and they were very small to sit on :)

    The food was absolutely delicious, and the chefs were incredibly attentive to every detail. We did the set 3 which and some starters, which provided a great tour of the menu. Unfortunately, the front of house service was a bit lacking and not attentive, despite the very intimate setting, which is surprising as their main responsibilities were arranging seating, drinks and talking payment. Fortunately, the chefs were on hand to make up for this experience. The counter seating was quite uncomfortable being very high and paired with low stools, which make it difficult to experience the meal. The tasting menus and other sets looked delicious as well, with every dish being thoughtful and well prepared, with fresh fish and ingredients - some of the best sushi we have had in London. For NYC and LA folks, this is reminiscent of Kazu Nori style hand rolls.

    We really enjoyed the meal. It's really nice to see the chefs working and King was excellent and looking after us and the service and front of house were excellent as well. The food was absolutely delicious and perfect for what we needed.
