Harden's says

On Finsbury Park's Stroud Green Road, this Japanese-style curry specialist (with a sister branch at Coal Drops Yard in King's Cross) offers a choice of three sauces (beef, mild chicken and lentils) with its signature breaded chicken katsu. There's a cafe-style drinks menu, plus pastries and other nibbles.

* Based on a three course dinner, half a bottle of wine, coffee, cover charge, service and VAT.

On Finsbury Park’s Stroud Green Road, this Japanese-style curry specialist is a new (October 2023), slightly larger sibling to an older, more ‘hole-in-the-wall’ style sister operation at Coal Drops Yard in King’s Cross. No survey feedback as yet on its choice of three sauces (beef, mild chicken and lentils) to accompany its signature breaded chicken katsu, but when Hideaki Yoshiyama’s original branch opened, it attracted the interest of The Financial Times’s Tim Hayward who found its “stretched and battered foodway, reconstructed with the kind of rigour I find irresistible”.

For 33 years we've been curating reviews of the UK's most notable restaurant. In a typical year, diners submit over 50,000 reviews to create the most authoritative restaurant guide in the UK. Each year, the guide is re-written from scratch based on this survey (although for the 2021 edition, reviews are little changed from 2020 as no survey could run for that year).
