“ While the menu can be quite overwhelming (so much choice and everything looks delicious), the food was amazing, the service friendly, the atmosphere busy and cheerful. Everything we had was delicious but outstanding really was the sushi. We came without booking and had to wait a few minutes and we could see more people arriving and queuing. It’s worth it! ”
“ I love eating at eat Tokyo, it was my first time at this branch. Had a nice evening meal here and our server was lovely and made some great recommendations. The sushi was super yum it never disappoints. ”
“ My friends and I went to Eat Tokyo on a Friday night. We didn’t have any booking, they were quite busy as it was dinner time, but they still managed to seat us so that we didn’t wait long. There are lots of options on the menu, starters are about 3-7. With main meals and Bento Box’s starting from 9 onwards. Staff were attentive, giving us water and making sure we were happy with everything. The vibe inside was nice, female staff are in kimonos too, so it really gives off a Japanese aesthetic. Food was delicious, very good value for money, especially in the heart of London where dinners can be quite pricey. Would recommend if you like Japanese food. ”
“ Absolutely excellent value for the amount and quality of authentic food. Menu was huge and complex. Service was fast but our waiter( non Japanese which might be the reason) had no idea about menu items and was completely unable to help with any queries which was a little tricky so we struggled a bit. Orders can be placed via an I pad or a human. The menu is available in paper form as well as digital. The restaurant is quite basic almost cafeteria style but the food and value more than compensates. We spent 100 for 4 people including alcoholic drinks and too much food to eat which was incredibly cheap. ”
“ Yes you will have to queue out the door for a table even if you've booked - it is that popular but it is totally worth it. We get takeaway sushi from here on a regular basis but do occasionally go in for the hot food, which is equally good. Every dish we've tried has been excellent and incredibly good value. ”
“ Best budget Japanese food in the UK! Considering the high price points for food in London this place breaks all the normalities, a huge plate of katsu curry for 9.90 is amazing compared to other places up north for worse quality and definitely smaller quantity. The sushi was of good quality and drinks were very unique with a nice touch of Japan ”
“ This place is amazing! The food is very good quality and such good value, as portion sizes are so big. We tried many different items, and they were all great. The gyudon and oyakodon were incredible. I’ll definitely be coming back here when I get the chance! ”
“ Great Japanese food, simply presented and great prices. Terrible & annoying ordering process. ”
