   My partner and I have dined here several times and regularly order takeaway. The quality of the food is incredible - you can absolutely taste the difference between this and some of the chain sushi places that are opening nearby (e.g. Iro). Everything is made fresh to order, the sushi rice is the perfect flavour and consistency and the fish is super high quality. It’s also very reasonably priced for the quality of food you’re getting. Our particular favourites include salmon sashimi, prawn tempura roll, crunchy tuna roll, English roll and rock’n’roll. They are very popular and takeaway slots can fill quickly at peak times, so get your orders in early on peak Friday/Saturday evenings. The staff taking orders on the phones are very polite. They aren’t always open for dine-in, but I’d recommend going along if you can - it’s great watching the chefs in action!

   Firstly the sushi is very good. However on my last visit i had a lot of rice and not much fish in my sushi rolls. I feel like if you are paying high prices you should get a good amount of fish. Another criticism is that the layer of rice is way too thick, it would be so much better if the layer of rice was thin and the sushi wouldnt make me so full without having eaten much fish. I feel like all ive eaten is rice. Good sushi has a balance. Another thing that was not nice is that they tell you they are not allowing for any bookings to eat in, however when i went to pick up my order, there was a couple eating in the restaurant. This made me feel like they give different treatment for certain people. Even tho i have been coming here for the last 8 years. I wanted to eat in for my birthday and now im looking else where. They told me that they dont have enough staff even tho i wanted to book on a tuesday. This day isnt the busiest and they only have a little bar. I hope they take this criticism on board.

   Best sushi in London. We have been regular customers and we never appreciated how good it is until we went to Japan. It is better sushi than most of the sushi restaurants we have been to in Japan. Highly recommend. Also @Head chef, please don’t retire. We love your sushi.

   Really lovely food, the sashimi was truly excellent. It is hard to create atmosphere in such a small place but we had a lovely evening

   This restaurant has quite simply the best Japanese food. Compares with top London Sushi bars. Staff and owner are very friendly and helpful. Have been a regular for many years since the opening.

   Best in southeast London. Only decent place in a 5 mile radius where I can get some decent variety of sushi. For anyone who wants not just salmon, salmon and salmon (pairing with a gallon of soy sauce), this is the perfect place to rediscover the breadth of Japanese culinary.

   Family run Sushi restaurant which is the best, freshest sushi you will ever try. It is very popular so you have to get your orders early. I've been coming here for many years and the food is always 5 Star. Great quality and lovely people.

   Food and the service amazing. Normally go out into London. But found this on Google and was local so gave it a try and will be back again. Picked up a few suhi tips from the chief too.. One begin the ginger is to cleanse the pallet between sushi..
