Quick info
About Edo Asia
Edo Asia sits on High St in Southampton as the sister restaurant to Shanghai 1814, serving Asia-inspired small plates alongside robata grilled dishes, sushi and sashimi meant for sharing. Sushi arrives as set menus presented in a clay pot, with recurring plates spanning soft shell crab, takoyaki and a tempura salmon roll, plus noodle and rice dishes for the table. Vegan options run through the menu, and the drinks list pairs cocktails with mocktails. The room runs dim lighting under a lit ceiling with red-toned steam, and music, at times from a DJ, keeps the space lively. Table service brings orders to the table. It opens evenings only, Monday to Sunday except Tuesdays, and seating is walk-in.

“Friday night .. empty?!?! The most sophisticated place in Southampton. Our favourite place for a drink and food by a country mile! First date will keep her close ;)”
- Winnah James
“We chose the perfect place to celebrate my husband’s birthday, and what a special experience it was! The service was truly 5-star. Our server was incredibly professional, attentive, and made us feel so well looked after (He was a star). The hostesses were accommodating and gave us the table we preferred. The restaurant interior is absolutely stunning, and the food and cocktails were fantastic. Everything came together beautifully for such a memorable evening. Truly a hidden gem in Southampton.”

“Came here for a date night and it became unforgettable! The restaurant has the most beautiful atmosphere imaginable, it has extremely dim lighting with a beautiful lit ceiling. There’s red coloured steam that adds to the atmosphere. It was enchanting. On top of that, the food was delicious. The sushi here is to die for. If I could recommend anything, it would be to just order the sushi as it on its own is perfect. We also tried their Wagyu rice and seafood rice which were both fantastic and the portions were extravagant. This is a restaurant that delivers on food quality, quantity and atmosphere which is a rare find.”

“Wow. What a discovery. Stumbling up through high street and spotted this place. From the outside it looks like a deserted cocktail bar. However, walk inside, through to the main dining room you are greeted to an onslaught of sense overload. Classy nightclub, great music and well the food, you're gonna have to find out yourselves. You wont be disappointed.”
- Tanisha Rahman
“This place deserves more than 5 stars! Every visit has been an amazing experience from start to finish. From the moment you walk through the door, you’re welcomed by an unbeatable atmosphere, amazing staff, and exceptional service. The food arrived quickly and was absolutely outstanding—full of flavor, perfectly cooked, and beautifully presented. A special mention goes to Ryo, who made our visit even more memorable with his attentive and welcoming service and by the time we left he felt like a friend. This was my second time dining here, and somehow it was even better than the first. That’s not something you come across often! I can already say with confidence that there will definitely be a third visit. Highly recommend!”

Customer Review Summary
The main complaint is volume. One reviewer says a DJ was so loud they could not hear the person beside them, and compares the room to a club more than a restaurant. Another says the Bang Bang Chicken was far too sweet, portions were small, and the gap between starters and mains was slow. The same diner notes the server tried to memorise the order rather than write it down and returned to reconfirm it.
