Notting Hill, Fusion Restaurant Guide

“With its eclectic Mexican/Japanese fusion fare”, this duo of funky bar-restaurants offer a “fun” time as a “great location for drinks and snacks with fabulous cocktails and tacos” and is “especially good if you’re dining with a few people so you can share dishes”. At least that’s what most folks feel about these surprisingly vibey and “buzzy” haunts in Notting Hill and by Liverpool Street station. On the downside, “it is easy to rack up a large bill and service can be erratic”. Where such criticisms are made, it’s mostly concerning the larger, newer EC2 branch (“had a rooftop meal in the City and although we knew it would not be ‘bargain basement’, we felt we were treated like cash-machines to be brought in and moved out again as quickly as possible”). See also Juno and Luna. Top Menu Tip – “nearly everything is gluten-free” and also nut-free.

Open in Notting Hill in June 2025, a ‘neo Nikkei omakase’ from a trio of friends who originally developed their take on Japanese/Peruvian cuisine in Lima, adding Chinese and other global influences to the mix. Now they’ve imported the full experience to London, which extends across 11 courses – reports please!
