Customer Review Summary
Reviewers most often single out the sushi and sashimi, praising big, fresh cuts of fish and generous portions, with several calling it the best sushi they have had. Close behind are the grilled dishes, where the grilled chicken, yakitori skewers, and grilled eel and sea bass draw praise for being juicy and cooked just right. Takoyaki, tempura, dumplings, and miso soup with nameko mushrooms also earn compliments, and some mention the lunch sets. Service is described as lovely and polite, with staff accommodating a late takeaway order and adding extra salmon to a mixed sushi platter on request. The caveats are modest. Dessert choices are limited, and one reviewer found the dorayaki seemed shop bought, half warm and half cold. Another calls the decor plain and a bit cold and the pricing on the expensive side, and one found the quail eggs underwhelming. A few note the restaurant is small and suggest booking. One regular says they come every Thursday.

“I’m here every Thursday. It’s a highlight of my week. The food is exceptional.”

“I visited Obōn Teddington yesterday and it's amazing. The service is great, I went with my partner at lunch time, the waitress came to us with a smile and asked is everything okay, how sweet she is. The food there are fantastic, fishes are very very fresh, the dumpings are so crunchy. We really love the food there and the enjoyment we had at Obōn Teddington. I can't believe such a high quality of Japanese restaurant in London. Thank you Obōn.”

“I ordered some things to go embarrassingly just as they were closing since I mixed up the timings, and the staff were thankfully lovely about it. The miso soup I ordered was nice and comforting too; I'd never tried it with nameko mushrooms before, but they went so well with the broth! I'll definitely be coming back here with my family. Update: Went again for dinner with my family - the wider menu is gorgeous! The best takoyaki I've ever had. You can tell that they use fresh ingredients, and the sashimi is perfectly cut. Again, the wait time was non-existent, and the workers were lovely!”

“We were so happy to finally get the chance to eat here. The food exceeded our expectations. Best sushi we’ve had for a very long time. What a treat. Big pieces of fresh and flavoursome fish, perfectly cooked rice all expertly prepared. We had a late lunch before close and were not rushed. The restaurant was super quiet because of the timing. Would love to visit when busier.”

“Lovely place. The decor is a bit plain and cold feeling but the food was nice. I got some maki and nigiri sushi. Friend loves his deep fried veggie and fried squid maki. The quality of the fish was good. We requested more salmon on the mixed sushi platter and they did it accordingly which was lovely. The miso soup was hot which was great. It was nice but I wouldn't say amazing. All is all it was nice but not amazing. I would say perhaps a bit on the expensive side.”
