Customer Review Summary
Sushi draws the most praise, with the salmon sashimi, tuna sashimi and hamachi sashimi all singled out as fresh and well prepared, close behind are the donburi bowls, katsu curry and hellspicy beef ramen, along with standouts like the miso soup and teriyaki bento. Several reviewers call portions generous and prices fair, and one describes a bonus birthday dessert. Service is mostly described as attentive or faultless, though one diner reports lacklustre, surly treatment from a waitress during a meal for three, with dishes arriving in a scattered order. A couple of visits note the space gets noisy since tables sit close together, and one wishes portions were a bit bigger. Several reviewers mention arriving without booking ahead and stress doing so next time, since the restaurant doesn't take reservations. Repeat visits and return trips, including from further afield, recur throughout the reviews.

“I had a fantastic meal here last Thursday evening. Turned up at 8.30 near to closing so appreciate it was late. Ordered soft shell crab, takoyaki, unagi, hamachi sashimi and dragon roll. The food was delicious. The hamachi was immense. So tasty and high grade texture. The dragon roll was massive! No complaints. The unagi was my favourite part of the meal as it’s my favourite flavour but overall the food was very very good. I would 100% go back again.”

“The miso soup is exceptional. The Bento is generous, the teriyaki sauce is balanced and the fish very fresh. More than recommended!”

“Visited with my partner for his birthday on a Monday evening and was met with a beautiful atmosphere and attentive staff. Our meal was delicious, generous, and well presented. Plus a bonus birthday dessert, and all very fairly priced. This is a really lovely restaurant well worth visiting.”

“We visited Mountain Spring yesterday evening for dinner. Living in Romsey, we’ve been wanting to take advantage of how quick and easy it is to get the train to Salisbury and to start trying the restaurants and pubs it has to offer. Based on great reviews, we chose Mountain Spring as our first restaurant choice and we couldn’t be happier. Despite warnings, we hadn’t booked so I would say we were just very lucky to have gotten a table. Next time, we will make sure to book ahead. To start, we shared a selection of sushi which was absolutely delicious. The salmon sashimi was particularly great. To follow, we each had a donburi - Gya Don and Chicken Katsu Don. Both were really tasty and overall, we felt like this was the perfect amount of food for us. We shared a small bottle of sake to finish and to drink had a beer and a soft drink. The total bill came to just over £60 which we think is fantastic value. We didn’t have cash on us (our mistake) so were unable to leave a tip - no service charge added, and no option on the card machine to add - so we will be making sure to have this with us next time! Thoroughly recommend - we can’t wait to come back. Thank you!”
