A fine Japanese katsu curry in the heart of Farringdon. I’ve always walked past this little joint and on my way back home I found there was no queue and decided to eat. There are numerous options inside and my favourite is katsu. For the portion size, location this is good value. All in for £8.30 The service is prompt and polite and I sat outdoors where there are small seating areas. Highly recommended considering it’s always busy and represents good value for money!

Very good quality and good portion size. I'd say the price (Paid £10.40 for the sushi set in the pic I think) is fair for this quality as everything is very expensive nowadays! I was particularly impressed by rice. I tried so many sushi which the rice quality was pretty poor (usually they don't add enough amount of water and it turns out so hard and inedible). Rice was spot on! I wasn't sure about the crispy topping (fried garlic?) though. Very weird and not necessary when the sushi quality is this good. I'll definitely come here again. Will possibly try hot food next time.

Excellent sushi! So good, I went back 2 days in a row and would probably be back again if it wasn't Friday! The freshest produce used, good quality with delicious flavour. I tried the steamed chicken gyoza which were the best I've had from a take-away. Only let down were the prawn tempura which were a little oily. Highly recommend!
