Quick info
About Takumi London Japanese Restaurant
On Old Compton St, Takumi London Japanese Restaurant serves a menu spanning 197 dishes, from wagyu beef don to a deluxe don and foie gras don. Set meals pair unagi don or salmon don with gyu tan and miso soup. Sushi topped with gold foil appears among the options, alongside wagyu sirloin. The kitchen tends to send dishes out quickly, and portions run large enough that two diners can typically order fewer plates than a full spread might suggest. Seating is walk-in, with no reservations taken.

Customer Review Summary
Reviewers single out the Wagyu sirloin beef most, and one notes the gold foil on the sushi tastes like gold foil. Friendly staff and an upmarket take on an Izakaya come up too. The recurring caveat is price, with one reviewer saying the food arrived so fast that some hot dishes were eaten cold, and service was minimal. One suggests ordering less than the photos show for two.

“Good vibes at the restaurant, friendly staff, and good environment. I would recommend you to order less food than in the photos for two people. The Wagyu Sirloin beef was amazing. The Gold foils on top of sushi tastes like gold foils lol.. overall, delicious food but maybe a bit expensive 😅”

“All food was very good but whether it is worth the price is debatable. The food came very fast, which was good in a way but it meant that we were eating some hot food cold. The staff was friendly though we got minimal service.”
