Harden's survey result
Summary
Buzzy Japanese in East Dulwich (younger sister of Clapham’s long-established Tsunami), that’s “always busy due to the reliably tasty (and never-changing) menu” of sushi and sashimi, plus more substantial fare, backed up by “excellent cocktails”.
Summary
This “great local Japanese” in East Dulwich is the “small, younger brother of Tsunami in Clapham”, and attracts a “buzzing crowd of local regulars” with its “good sushi and sashimi, crisp tempura, and sizzling hot plates of steak, chicken and fish”. Service is “cheerful if occasionally haphazard”.
Summary
“Consistently high-quality food and cocktails” set the tone at this Japanese izakaya in East Dulwich, from the ex-Nobu team behind Clapham’s well-known Tsunami. “Occasionally you get the sense that some of the staff don’t really know what they’re doing” – but most reporters are more than happy with the sushi, sashimi, tempura and other delicacies on the menu.
Summary
The “very good cooking at this Japanese fusion place” – an offshoot of stalwart Clapham hotspot, Tsunami – makes it a popular option in East Dulwich. Service, though “sweet”, has slipped a notch, though: “they sometimes seem more interested in serving cocktails than getting the food sorted”.
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).
