Excellent place in the area to have delicious varieties of food items at reasonable prices, optimal hygienic conditions and with a really friendly and professional staff as well.
While quite expensive, the food was amazing. I had the fried dumplings, buckwheat soba with sesame sauce and two servings of the takoyaki because they were just that good. Service was good if just a tiny bit slow, but overall a very good meal.
Love the Korean friend wings and spicy tuna roll. Quick service and the staff here are very polite. Amazing place will surely visit again.
This restaurant is a must try whenever in London, you have to have reservation before showing up there. For starters you must order the Korean fried chicken wings because it is something! We also ordered the chicken yakitori which was very well flavoured and done! From the flesh and buns section, we ordered the crispy duck leg, the grain-fed Sirloin steak and the Spatchcock chicken as we were 3 persons, all the 3 dishes were amazing and they come with interesting small sides of different kind of pickles, we ordered extra buns as they were super fresh. Don’t skip the chocolate fondant for dessert. I must say that the portions are not very generous. The ambiance is nice, it is an underground place, the service Wasn’t great, you struggle a bit to get the waiter, although when they do come, they are very professional and friendly.
†**** Flesh and Buns ****'
A nice Japanese/Sushi/Korean place near Convent Garden. Amazing food quality.
I specially liked - Teriyaki, Miso, Tempura Prawns and Marshmallow
Staff was quite attentive and prompt .
Absolute winner!
I enjoyed the experience from start to finish and the staff were very attentive and friendly. The food is top quality and whomever orders the s’mores for dessert you’re in for a little surprise 😋
Great place for buns, which usually you have to queue a wait and a half for in central London. Easy to book with F&B. Food is really good, and the options are great. Yadokai sharing beer is divine and flows nicely with the buns (which are cheap to top up, considering the price of the rest of the menu).
Wow, this place was a treat. We were walking though a very nice looking street, and a dessert menu got our eyes. Intregued we went inside, and was met with a bold japanese restaurant, fantastic to look at.
The salmon teriaki was fun to eat. That's the best way I can describe it. It didn't even feel like eating, this was something more. I could have that for breakfast, lunch and dinner for a month and not complain, it was amazing.
And the mango mochi? Oooh, treat yourself ..
There for several times and enjoyed every time
Im in love with the dumplings in this place and specially the shrimp dumplings with coriander 🤤, all the food very delicious, the asian room and the Italian also , recommended place to visit in London
The buns out here are so damn soft that you can actually give the meat a miss. They made me a fan of Japanese cuisine. Must visit when in London for trying out the "flesh" and the "buns".
P.S. Special mention to the amazing desserts. Go in a big group and order everything on this section. You might consider two green tea tiramisu 😋
We had a great team dinner here. Fab food and good service (could have been a bit more prompt).
The starters were great and fit for individual portions. We ended up ordering almost all the starters. The portion size on the mains was very generous and we ended up with a lot of food.
Everything was very good.
Very delicious restaurant, everything on the menu was incredible. Definitely a bit pricey, with relatively small portions depending on what you get. The lamb shank and mixed sushi board was incredible and I'd definitely recommend the wings too. Great service and very quick! I'd recommend the buns too!
My wife recommended Flesh & Buns after she had a great team lunch at their Soho location. So within 10 days we decided to try their express lunch at the Covent Garden and we weren't disappointed.
Their wings and crispy duck were great. Though the chicken teriyaki poke don was alright. Now despite having an overall good score in the taste department I will dock a point as there isn't anything unique here. I think I would find similar dishes in another location with similar vibe and taste for a better price.
Nonetheless if you are looking for a place for team lunches or pre theatre meal then their Express menu is a very good option to definitely try. Their service is pretty friendly too and I want to give a shout out to Roshana who took care of us throughout the lunch.
Great menu, really delicious food. The lucky cat cocktail is incredible. The s’mores dessert was also great, they bring a fire to your table.
I only mark down because the service was slow. At a quiet lunchtime service.
I recently visited Flesh & Buns for the first time and I had an amazing experience. The staff were extremely welcoming and provided outstanding service in a lovely atmosphere.
The food was absolutely delicious! I highly recommend trying the Korean fried wings and the fried squid/calamari starters.
For our mains, we ordered the salmon teriyaki and the Japanese fried chicken which came with steamed bao buns that were light and fluffy.
I will definitely be returning for another visit!
Came for a solo dinner after an extremely long day at work and it was fabulous. The food was amazing, the New School cocktail was 10/10, and the pork belly entrée was absolutely wonderful. No notes on this place. Great for taking yourself on a date!
We really enjoyed flesh & buns and will definitely come back! The food was delicious (we had squid, pork buns and a salmon poke bowl) and we were both stuffed by the end!! The staff were all very friendly (especially our server Maria!!) and were keen to offer any assistance and suggestions.

Took my friend for a birthday dinner here and my friend just kept saying how delicious the food is.
We went on a Monday eve, so the food came out really quickly and the service was impeccable.
What we had:
🍢Starters:
Chips & dips - rice crackers with avocado shisho and tomato salsa. This was my least favourite dish and the one that I wouldn't order again. It wasn't bad but the rice crackers were a tad bland. 3/5
Beef fat potato chips - those were bloody amazing! Try them! 5/5
Fried squid with yuzu kosho mayo and Japanese spices - they were spicy and moreish! Would order again for sure 5/5
🍜Mains:
Flesh & bun - crispy piglet belly! I absolutely love pork belly! It was melting in the mouth with a crispy skin what more can you want. 5/5
Miso glazed aubergine poke don - classic Japanese way of cooking aubergine. Delicious! 5/5
🍩Dessert:
Kinako donuts - solid choice but next time I'll try the fondant (takes 15min to cook apparently!)
The only thing that I found jarring with the whole ambiance of the place was the hentai in the toilets. I did appreciate it, it just looked a bit out of place and might raise some eyebrows 😂
Suuuch delicious food and nice relaxed atmosphere. Always busy. £10 off pp deal in Aug if you mention their email. The salmon teriyaki bao is the standout, big enough to get 4 bao buns out of (you can order more buns v cheap). The miso aubergine poke bowl was v good value and big enough for a lunch or lightish dinner. Fried squid and broccoli and prawn tempura maki to start. All delicious. Washed down with a stone & wood (fav beer discovered in Aus so happy to find it in London!). However it’s not cheap. For all the mentioned food it was £87 including one beer each, we had £20 off but still a relatively pricey meal though. Service was good but not outstanding!
We had the set menu, it was £45 per person and they give you so much food. Crisps with guacamole and salsa, ceviche salad, baby broccoli, crispy squid, salmon sushi, chicken wings then for mains boa buns with teriyaki salmon, peking duck, miso aubergine, mushrooms and pork belly. Make your own strawberry s’mores for dessert. Everything was delicious and we had some leftovers to take home at the end.
