  “Mitsuki has been a regular for me for the longest time. In-fact this was the place that I tried my first ever sushi. So to all those that have never tried sushi, get the chicken sushi roll - a very safe entry point. The chicken lo-mein and udon noodles with chicken katsu curry was incredible. I didn’t ask, but it’s safe to assume that the noodles were cooked fresh in-house. Incredibly authentic. Service is very attentive and efficient. I was particularly impressed with the owner as she took our order for the first time , which included 5 different rolls, 4 different starters and drinks (including mini-changes) ALL WITHOUT NOTING DOWN. Impressive. Pricing is very fair in my opinion, with a sushi roll costing an average of £10-13. Starters in my opinion, didn’t seem like good value (in terms of portion size, not taste) and since my first visit, I’ve just opted for an extra sushi roll rather than starter, but each to their own - still great food. Fully Halal too. A very safe choice, with very bold flavours.”

  “It was my first time visiting Mitsuki, I will definitely be back! The flavours are amazing. They have a great menu to choose from - sushi, ramen, bento they have it all. It's a small place and table are limited so its best to reserve ahead of time. The service was great and the waitress was very kind in explaining a few things to us. Ordered the panko honey prawns, chicken gyozas, dragon rolls (phenomenal), beef teriyaki ramen, chicken and another beef dish. The flavours, the textures, the warmth from the chili oil - chefs kiss. 10/10”

  “Five stars. I went for a vegetarian/vegan meal and was genuinely impressed by how much choice there was. It’s still surprisingly rare to find this many different vegetarian and vegan sushi options, and I ended up trying a bit of almost everything! Everything was fresh, beautifully presented and felt really high quality. The sushi was excellent, but I also really enjoyed the lightly fried tofu and bao buns. Great drink options too including plum wine and cold sake. Mandy, the owner, was absolutely lovely and the service throughout was amazing. The restaurant has more seating than you might expect and has a really nice, intimate feel. I’d definitely recommend booking in advance. My only small suggestion would be a little more variation in some of the vegan fillings alongside pumpkin, perhaps mushroom, tempeh, beetroot for a few different textures and flavours. Maybe fried tofu, and omelette / cream cheese / vegan cream cheese sushi roll options would be great additional veggie / vegan sushi options. Overall, a really special independent restaurant with probably the best vegetarian/vegan sushi selection I’ve found in Leicester. Genuinely better than wakaze, Maki & Ramen. Will definitely be back!”

  “Had a lovely meal here with friends. The staff were friendly and attentive. The food arrived quickly - it was beautifully presented and delicious. I've never tried freshly prepared sushi before but it makes such a difference. The mackerel (saba nigiri) was my favourite. Will definitely come back.”

  “My boyfriend and I went down because both of us were craving for sushi and this was the most well rated and reviewed Japanese restaurant in Leicester. All the food that we tried was 10/10 except for the lo mein which was quite average. I can’t recommend this restaurant enough.I will definitely be back to try the other sushi 🍣!”

  “The food was incredibly fresh, and every dish we ordered was excellent. The service was friendly and welcoming throughout our visit. Despite going on a weekday, the restaurant was very busy, which is understandable as it’s quite small. I’d definitely recommend booking in advance—it’s absolutely worth a visit.”

  “I've been here on three separate occasions and it's never failed to be amazing every single time. The owner has the memory of a computer, she's absolutely amazing. The food itself is of a very high quality and standard. Everything is so flavourful, whether you're having a roll or ramen or a curry rice. The vege taco was said to be the best thing that my friends have ever tasted. In particular, the vege taco is a MUST TRY. It's a crispy, deep-fried nori seaweed shell packed with seasoned sushi rice and a golden Japanese potato croquette (korokke), drizzled with a rich, savory umami sauce and topped with fresh microgreens. It’s the perfect blend of salty, crunchy, and comforting flavors. The Japanese curry rice with mock duck is like a warm hug in a bowl. A steaming plate of classic Japanese curry rice, featuring a rich, velvety, and mildly sweet savory sauce. It’s loaded with tender, slow-simmered potatoes, carrots, and sweet onions, alongside chewy pieces of mock duck that perfectly soak up the deeply comforting flavors. It's just something you cannot go wrong with! And the crispy vegetable tempura roll is something I could eat 10 plates of on its own - sensational flavours and textures. A beautifully plated vegetable tempura uramaki roll, featuring a crunchy, golden fried vegetable center wrapped in nori and sushi rice. The outside is lightly flecked with green herbs and finished with a smooth dollop of zesty wasabi mayo for a perfect balance of crunch and creamy heat. 10/10 highly recommend. Do NOT miss this experience. Your mind, body and soul will thank you for it!”

  “Our fave fave place!!! We knew it would be busy as it was Saturday but we were still seated quickly and got our food quickly as always. This time we tried the yaki udon and the ebi tempura as well as our usual ebi fried roll and nigiri. It’s always amazing food and the staff are just so great. Highly recommend.”

  “Visited Mitsuki on London Road and overall had a good experience. The sushi was really nice and definitely the highlight! Fresh, well presented and something I would happily go back for. The restaurant itself is also lovely, with a nice atmosphere and friendly staff! However, I was personally a bit disappointed with the mains as they weren’t to my taste. I would recommend sticking to the sushi, which is where they really shine. Overall, I would return again for the sushi!”
