“Thiago was great and Sushi quality fantastic and fresh.”

“Lovely staff, good looking restaurant, good atmosphere but food only ok. Had garlic prawn starter then monkfish and prawn goan curry..... Both lacked any real punch. and curry needs a little extra, like a Naan bread or something with texture”
- Jennie Bowes

Customer Review Summary
Sushi quality is what most reviewers return to, describing it as fresh, fantastic and the best they have had in the UK, with one anniversary diner saying the chef's sushi skills blew them away. Close behind is the service, called friendly and exceptional. One reviewer says the kitchen catered well for a coeliac and vegan guest, and another calls the sake excellent. The picture is not uniform. One delivery order of the chef's special platter drew a complaint because many of the pieces were plain cucumber rice rolls, and that reviewer also complained through the delivery app. Another says deliveries are never available. A mixed dine-in review liked the staff and atmosphere, but found the garlic prawn starter and the monkfish and prawn goan curry lacking punch, and suggested the curry needed something with texture, like naan. Birthday and anniversary diners describe being very well looked after.
