Eat Tokyo (Soho)

• As it is a small restaurant and can get very busy at night with long queues
• I'm impressed with the sashimi
• The quality is generally good
• The amaebi (sweet shrimp) were decent and the toro (fatty tuna) was silky and not overly fatty with a melt in the mouth texture
• It's not the best Unagi I had
• The service was friendly and I really enjoyed the food
• My most recent visit was to the newly opened Soho branch
• This branch is less cramped than their previous one in Trafalgar Square so thumbs up on the move
• To get as many people in as possible means the tables are quite close to each other
• Their turnover is high so they use up a lot of produce meaning their ingredients
• Absolutely terrible food and the service was almost as bad there was one poor woman left by herself for the whole bottom floor
• The pork in my katsu sara set was dry and so tough I couldn't even cut through it
• My rice was hard and was clearly old rice that had been left at the bottom of a rice cooker
• The whole dish was so salty I could barely eat it (and I love salt)
• The only reason I am giving it 2/5 is because my friends enjoyed their meals
• Eat Tokyo restaurants are peppered around the city and they've been around for quite some time now
• It's decent enough Japanese that won't break the bank and the menu is absolutely extensive
• I thought the food was more on the average side than something I'd queue up
• Their hyper roll is so creamy definitely a must try
• Food portions are generous and the bento boxes are in my opinion huge
• My favourites are king dragon roll
• Their menu is extensive to say the least
• Not great but when you do find someone to help you they are always polite
• The restaurant is always busy and there is always a queue out the front
• This is probably because the food is priced very reasonably
• I did notice on my last visit that the food was not as good as the previous visits but it was still ok
• I wouldn't recommend going in large groups as the tables are quite small and close together
• Being too enthusiastic about all the options available and not considering that the portions are more than generous
• As you can guess that was the case for me
• The service is a bit of a random act
• So by the time we were seated in the buzzing restaurant
• My friend and I each ordered the Teriyaki Salmon with rice and shared Eat Tokyo's Hyper Roll
• Avocado and is wrapped in seared salmon and yellowtail topped with fish roe and wasabi
• The Salmon Teriyaki was the exact opposite
• Greasy and topped with way too much Teriyaki sauce
• That's really all that was good about this dish
• It might have been better if it was served with some kind of pickles to balance out the greasiness
• It didn't come with any extra sides
• Went to eat lunch here today the card machine was broken down so they only accepted cash
• The tuna portions were VERY generous
• I went there with a big group and while there is a lot of space to accommodate that it is best to book in advance just in case
• Everything was delicious to the point I really can't pick a favourite and for £
• I've been to this Eat Tokyo many times both with friends and alone when in the area
• The staff are reasonably friendly and attentive it's a bit of a mixed bag and just depends on who is working that day
• Though there is a hint of Japanese authenticity as you get an enthusiastic "
• The menu is massive and now in fact there are two a "
• The menu is vast and the portions are large by London standards
• Theres that second entry door where u wait like a cubicle which is a bit ridicolous in my opinion
• The bentos are sizeable and significant
• We also had the mussels on recommendation from a friend and that was deelish (they sometimes sell out so give it a shot if it's available)
• The service here is not the best
• I can say the dishes were equally tasty in both Holborn and Soho branches
• The food is always cooked to perfection and the prices are reasonable
• The overall quality is not bad with reasonable prices good value
• Sushi were all nommy and basically everything on menu is quite nice
• The food never disappoints and is definitely worth the wait
• Not the best sushi I've ever tried but the restaurant is cozy and clean
• Space was limited (as is often the case in this style of restaurant)
• Service not very friendly I would say but the sushi is always good
• Also prices are affordable
• 9 gets you an insanely large bowl with surely what must be a kilo of rice
• I was a bit more tamer with my selection
• I substituted the sushi for some pickles and it was a huge portion
• The flavours were good and there was a lot of them
• Though split with a friend (or two
• So we entered this restaurant as an interim waiting spot as my friend and I had queued for another restaurant but that was a 45 50min wait
• I've seen people queue for Eat Tokyo in the past so I knew this is a good alternative
• As we sat down there was a huge HUGE menu filled with good looking sushi rolls and mouth watering pictures
• We knew there was a possibility we wouldn't go to the other restaurant
• The portion of gyun don was large but very well made
• Eat Tokyo (Soho) is a sushi heaven
• A pretty popular Japanese diner with many branches around London
• Eat Tokyo has won a few famous awards for their beautifully presented sushis and is relatively cheap for an easy
• A very large encompassing menu that is sure to satisfy your cravings for quick
• The quintessential point of this review is the DOUBLE CURRY
• The service is not so nice
• I mean people are not at all nice but the quality of the sushi worths the visit
• T give a lower rating is because of what I have read from other people
• After meal we asked for bill and told the waitress we were paying cash
• I thought it was merely a mistake and told the waitress politely that we were overcharged
• The waitress took the bill and came back in one minute saying that there were no mistakes
• 4.50 on the bill (deep fried oysters) was crossed out and a new price of £
• Luckily my memory was fine so I told her that the price on menu was indeed £
• We felt that they were upset because their intention to steal from customer failed
