  “An app found this place and counted the calories from my photo. The fish salad had plenty of protein and did not taste like diet food. It fit my remaining daily calories well. The dining room was quiet and simple.”

  “Actually, a really amazing restaurant great taste and great quality. I would 100% recommend this place. The staff are really helpful and they even remade us one of the dishes due to our allergy needs and they were really nice. The food was great tasting the service was amazing it’s obviously quite busy but they had a table and yeah, anybody who’s thinking about getting Japanese in the area even though this isn’t the most expensive I probably think it’s one of the best so I would definitely recommend it or try it out if you’re looking for something locally”

  “Top Japanese food you must try it. This restaurant is cosy and small for around max 16 people. There are 4 tables. Atmosphere is quite with soft music so lovely if you don't like noise. A hidden gem! See the photos I've added for the food - Food is wonderful, every dish is delicious and very generous portions. The mixed Yasai tempura - Deep-fried mixed king prawns (3pcs) & veg (5pcs) tempura with tempura sauce for starter was so light and crispy. Agedashi Tofu appetizer was also lightly coated and crispy and was delicious - (deep-fried fresh tofu, served with light dashi soy and kizami nori seaweed, suitable for vegans). Don buri is a very large bowl with rice veg and packed with flavour plus crispy fried pork and egg on top. The Grill pork in gochujang sauce was absolutely delicious with flavour and the portion was right. We had Dim sum mixed box 9pcs (3x har kau (prawn dumplings), 4x sui mai (pork), 2x char sui buns) - again cannot fault it. The buns were super soft and prawn dumpling perfect. I also had the King dragon roll - see the photo it's pretty and was delicious. The udon noodles in soup with pork and vegetables was a generous portion and again perfect taste. We managed to eat everything and I'm sure we would be back soon to try other dishes as they are so nice and there is a lot more choice on the menu. We had booked through first table so the price we paid was soo reasonable but even without the deal I think the prices are very good especially for the taste and quality of the food. We will visit the larger restaurant in Portland street as well. The service was very friendly and made us feel welcome instantly. If there was anything to improve I would say better quality chopsticks and cutlery and that's all! Thank you for the lovely food it made our evening special.”

  “I had a lovely experience at Doumo Japanese Restaurant. The service was fantastic—friendly and attentive. The menu is very reasonably priced. I tried the ramen, and while it was decent, it leaned a little on the mild side and could have used a bit more depth and creaminess in the broth. The sushi roll was fresh and well-prepared. Overall, it’s a solid spot with great service and good value.”

  “Party of two came here for lunch. The atmosphere is lovely, it’s a quaint small sport, with nice Japanese decor, and few tables so it does not feel too crowded. The food was great; we ordered the mixed dim sum platter which was lovely, flavoursome and generous; the vegetarian yakisoba which was lovely as well with plenty of vegetables and lastly the curry katsu chicken, and the chicken was fried to perfection, not oily or greasy and the curry was quite good as well, it was however slightly bland and lacked a bit of flavour. However the service was subpar to say the least. The other guest said she couldn’t remember the last time she had such bad service. To begin with, the waitress told us that besides the terms stated in the First Table booking, another item was not including, which was then rectified after she checked with the manager. Following this incident, the waitress was rude and off-putting, and as we were leaving she consciously bumped into one of the guests to move past her as they tried to manoeuvre a suitcase which had been tucked away in a corner to not bother anyone else, rather than wait one second or just simply politely ask if she could go through. On top of that, as we’d realise after we left, they hadn’t applied the 50% discount through the machine and made a (though insignificant) mistake, charging us 10p more, and while this will not bankrupt us, we did not appreciate that especially given how disappointing the service was. Since the food is good, it would be great for takeaways.”

  “Bookmarked this place and finally came to try the food here. It is a great option for people visiting British Museum or around. We came on a Saturday for lunch, it wasn’t busy at all. We were six and comfortably seated. The rainbow roll is okay if you wanna try different toppings. There are also different Raman and rice dishes. It wouldn’t say it is an authentic Japanese restaurant but the food tastes alright. The service was really good, the staff is very attentive. He had some chit chats with us and made us feel welcome.”

  “Excellent quality food and reasonably priced for London. Small intimate restaurant with friendly service. The menu has all the highlights of Japanese cuisine. Try the fresh sashimi and dragon roll. The warm dishes are also great the pumpkin croquettes and chilli squid are delicious.”

  “Lovely sushi place in the heart of West London. Very relaxed environment, small and cozy. The waiters are lovely and you can see the sushi chef prepping your meal next to the tables. Despite the sushi being not overly priced it’s still good quality. The best dish thought was the pumpkin korokke - could have ordered 10 of them! Yummy”
