  • This place is exceptional and authentic - Sashimi and Sushi are always fresh and spot on. Don't trust a critic who cannot spell! (nigiri not niggiri)

  • How can I best express this... Totally over priced food and unhelpful staff who seemed loathed to give me a glass of water and us kept waiting for ages for our food (on a very unbusy Thursday night) for far longer than was acceptable. With so many great sushi places in London, and actually just around the corner, don't waste your time or money here!

  • Good but a bit desappointing... We had the Foie gras niggiri as a starter and even though it tasted good the rice was falling apart completely so it was not very easy to eat. We were quite surprised to be told that the main selection of tea was not available and that we only had two choices of tea. I can't imagine that it is that difficult to make sure to have enough tea for a Saturday night! As for the main dish, do not pick the grilled scallops! It was not cooked properly; almost raw in the middle and burnt on top. There was also barely any sauce but a lot of water which make me think that it was frozen ones! (and which would explain the lack of taste!) I had sushis rolls that were good but not that extra fresh or tasty. Maybe you will appreciate more this restaurant after a few sakes - as maybe a bit of alcohol will make you forget how your meal really taste... Overall, descent restaurant but quite pricey compared to the quality of the food.

  • We recently visited this excellent little restaurant, even though it's slightly hard to find - hidden away behind Regent Street and Shaftsbury Avenue. The service was really good and the food was even better - especially the Mackerel Sushi. On top of this SO also has a fine selection of saki and wines. Thoroughly recommended.
