Walking around Angel with my wife and daughter, we found a little«new» sushi spot, one of those traditional, family and authentic Japanese eight seats restaurants with more than a lovely staff, great plain atmosphere, really fresh ingredients and the most important thing, very good sushi. Sometimes, less is more, and definitely this is one of those cases, a humble and unpretentious menu with a few twist, like the saba(mackerel) dynamite maki or the traditional(huge one) chicken teriyaki futomaki as well. The otoro nigiri(faty tuna sushi) and the uni(sea urchin) gunkan were amazing, the rice was at the proper temperature, size and seasoning, they were simple, perfect and fast. They also have a little grocery market were you could buy some Japanese candies, sodas, snacks, sauces, ice creams, ingredients to cook at home, and pre –packed sushi(too cold for my taste, I must say) on a side of the store, so you may think twice before to go to London central to buy good nihon stuff. If you worried about the prices, take it easy, they 100% reasonable. If you are a real Sushi Lover who loves to enjoy a good piece of sushi with a nice sake or cold Japanese beer, let me tell you… They don’t have alcohol license, so you must do what I did, drink a Ramune or a green tea! We really enjoyed the experience, definitely we are going back, to be honest, I cannot wait to do it! Domo arigato Sushi Show, and for the rest of you guys, itadakimasu ^O^

It’s so hard to find a decent sushi place in London. This place tastes like sushi should!

Fresh fish. Great staff. Nice atmosphere. My go-to spot when I’m craving some sushi. I always order a tekka don. The bluefin tuna really hits the spot. The restaurant/take-away offers a pretty standard sushi menu alongside, some innovative uramakis(like chicken teriyaki uramaki), and a spicy dynamite roll(mackerel with chili/etc), sashimi ricebowls, or even a hot bowl of plain udon. They’ve got huge futomakis, as well as vegan hosomakis for all you veggies out there. Edit — they also have gyudon, takoyaki and other things. On the side, they have instant noodles and japanese cooking materials/ingredients/condiments for sale.

Oh sushi, sushi, where are you, dearest sushi? With all the burger places in Angel, there is a dearth of decent sushi so when this opened right next to my house, I couldn’t have been more pleased. It’s a tiny place selling pre-packed sushi boxes and salads. They have a little bar and seating area for dining in and also a Japanese grocery section. So it’s now a lot more convenient to buy your own sushi making ingredients than going the Japan centre. The sushi rolls weren’t amazing. They were pretty average and I would avoid the prawn tempura again. You order off a dim sum style list so not a huge amount of variety. But when you need a sushi fix and don’t want to drop mega bucks, it’s worth a visit. The staff were lovely and friendly and it’s properly convenient for me. I’ll be back!

Nice new little Sushi take away, with a few tables for some eating in. Staff were all very friendly and happy to serve us even though we came in very close to closing. They have either pre –packed sushi or will freshly make orders. There is also a small Asian shop for some dried groceries. The décor is very plain but the food was quick to come out and of a good standard. The price was very reasonable in comparison to chains that do a similar sort of service. A great option for lunch for anyone that lives locally.
