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

Some of the “best reasonably priced sashimi and sushi” in London has long been found at this basic but “friendly” café, near Golders Green Tube. In recent years, it’s fallen under the ownership of top Japanese fish and seafood wholesaler T&S Enterprises, with outlets (usually under the Atariya brand) in Finchley, Kingston, Swiss Cottage and West Acton.

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).
