  • This is one of my favourite restaurants in London, and the best Japanese food I've had. The restaurant itself has a great atmosphere; it's absolutley tiny but the decor is excellent - very authentic and not OTT. The food is excellent and of a really high standard; the buta kakuni (simmered pork belly) is so tender it falls apart practically by looking at it! Just make sure you book before you go because it is ridiculously hard to get a table without booking. The best part is when you get the bill and realise how reasonable the prices are!

  • It was horrible. The table were so tight you could not come out of the table (my weight is 48kg) . The waitresses were rude, and they forgot to bring my food after 50 minutes (we were 5 at the table) waiting. They didn't apologized and they still charged us for the full service charge.

  • Don't know what crack this reviewer was smoking, 3/5? Best Japanese I've had in London for years and quite possibly ever.

  • What is up with TimeOut? Three stars for the best Japanese restaurant in London? Are you kidding me??? Wonderful atmosphere, amazing (reasonably priced) food, feels like being in a real Japanese izakaya, takes me back to my days in Tokyo.

  • Best restaurant in London. Even the decor has a certain charm.

  • This is my absolute favourite restaurant. I don't think Time Out's review has given it justice. Asakusa is easily the best Japanese restaurant in London. The decor isn't great but the food is well worth it.
