Brought my girlfriend here for dinner on her birthday as she has a degree in Japanese and has always really enjoyed the culture and food. We were seated at a gorgeous marble table with comfortable chairs. Soft music was playing and the atmosphere was cosy and relaxed. The servers were incredibly attentive and polite. I've noticed that some have given negative reviews due to the time it takes for the food to arrive and this is true - service isn't quick and if we had made plans for after the meal perhaps then it would have been an issue. However, we had no plans and got to enjoy some time together to talk and enjoy drinks as we waited on our dinner. We were in no rush, but in any case, the food was entirely worth the wait. Our dishes were obviously made fresh and with great care and attention to detail. Generous portions, beautiful flavours and visually stunning. Often times in restaurants I've found fast service takes precedence over food quality - no doubt a result of customers clamouring for instant gratification and venues itching for fast customer turnover. In contrast, this felt like a calming oasis where good conversation, atmosphere and food made our dinner an experience in and of itself. We had a delightful time and were highly impressed. Thank you Oshibori for a perfect birthday treat for my partner!

The wait is slow, I had to make eye contact 5 times before they came over to take my order. The food itself is very nice, I had the sushi platter, the wasabi is of good standard likewise the ginger, the salmon is also pretty fresh as well as the tuna, I had the California rolls, they were nice but I’ve had better, the rice was slightly hard, everyone prefers soft sticky rice, the cucumber on the side for garnishing was old, the presentation of the food itself is good, the tables are sturdy and it’s a very nice environment to have food in.

I have previously been here a few years ago and it was nice, the service was prompt and food was good, however returning recently there must have been a huge change of management. The food took about 1 and 1/2 hours to come after ordering, which is much slowly than a few years ago, and all the dishes are different from what they were, a drop in quality in my opinion. To top it off the waiting staff didn’t seem to know any dish names and weren’t able to provide us with spoons as they couldn’t find any. Disappointed in the decline of the restaurant, the food is still decent, but maybe not worth the over an hour wait

The food was just excellent, superb Ramen, starters and deserts. Staff were nice and attentive. The interior is fun and different. One star off on atmosphere as it was a wee bit cold in the restaurant. But will be back - for sure.

The food was very tasty but as other reviews suggest, it was very salty. Good quality though. Service was quite slow from ordering to receiving food but the staff were friendly and accommodating.

When we arrived at 18:45 it was quiet and we were seated immediately. The server was friendly and attentive. The music was quiet as other reviews have mentioned but personally we appreciated being able to hear eachother speak. The restaurant began to fill up later on and we were so impressed with the server as it was clearly busy and she seemed to be managing everything on her own but she constantly checked on us and always appeared totally calm and in control. The tables are quite spaced apart which not only feels more covid safe but also we appreciated feeling like we had some privacy and weren't crammed in. Having read other reviews we came prepared for a wait and made sure we weren't starving to start with so we had no issues waiting - our drinks were brought very promptly and I can't say I noticed a particular wait for the meal which I had been concerned about from some reviews. It was a birthday meal and we spent 2+ hours taking our time eating and talking - we found the atmosphere very comfortable and weren't in a rush but maybe others had issues if they were very hungry! We shared a platter so for £10 a head we were totally happy. Thought they were very generous with the sizes of the cuts compared to other sushi we've had, and appreciated the presentation. We had been a bit nervous about our booking after reading some of the negative reviews, but didn't find any of these issues ourselves. Didn't think it was dirty, enjoyed the ambiance, food was enjoyable, service was excellent, and value for money wise seemed totally normal for chef made sushi. The decor was quirky but we thought it was fun and the garden was absolutely stunning. One of the more relaxing dining experiences I've had post covid and we will definitely be back!!

Food was amazing and the staff were very attentive. I loved the decor. I understand they are renovating downstairs but good job for adapting to these difficult times. My partner and I had a brilliant experience 👏🏻 …
