Hanwoo Village - Authentic Korean BBQ

Hanwoo Village offered excellent customer service and a lovely welcome drink for new guests. The staff were warm, attentive, and genuinely caring, making sure everyone felt comfortable. The food was delicious and authentically Korean — beautifully prepared and full of rich flavour.

Jin, a friendly and kind lady, gave us great BBQ tips and introduced us to their refreshing barley tea. The whole experience felt upscale yet intimate, with a welcoming and homely atmosphere.

This visit truly inspired me to explore more Korean dishes and one day travel to South Korea to learn more about its history and culture.

A must-visit for anyone who appreciates good food, hospitality, and genuine warmth.

A great Korean BBQ restaurant in the local area. We had their VIP BBQ platter. Beef was particularly good, thick juicy & tender. We like their tartare as well. Nice to see a different version of how this is served apart from the French way. Makgeoli (Korean fermented rice wine) was easy to love & to indulge. Desserts were delicious unlike many of the Asian restaurants. Service on the other hand may need getting used to for some as one has to order via a scanned code online. They also help you with the BBQ & sometimes when they are busy, it can be a bit of a stretch. But waiters are really nice & we have no complaint.

It's my first time in a Korean BBQ. Honestly amazing experience. Services was amazing, atmosphere was beautiful with authentic background music. Best of all the food was to die for, I love Asian food but this experience was soo special to me.

Amazing date restaurant. Me and my girlfriend loved it.

Great spot for Korean BBQ! The meats were high quality and cooked perfectly, and the flavors were spot on. I loved the variety of banchan that came with the meal—everything tasted fresh and well prepared. The service was fast and friendly, and the staff was happy to help with grilling and recommendations. Highly recommend😍

My friend recommended this restaurant as it is really authentic and has a good vibe.
I had a spicy soup, it was incredibly tasty especially in this cold weather.
It was my first time visiting but the staff were very warm and kind 💜
Will definitely visit again with friends and family.
I felt like I was back in Korea 🇬🇧🇰🇷

Almost everything on our menu is Halal. Ask staff for details when you visit.

German Doner Kebab (GDK)

This was basically alcohol soak up food.
Was really looking forward to a meaty kebab , however what I got was a bread loaded with salad and not a lot of meat
Wont be back disappointed

Ordered via Uber Eats and received boxes that were almost empty, with very little food inside. Extremely disappointing for the price.

Visited on 05/09/25 around 11:30 AM. Ordered a Boss Box Jr (burger, fries, drink, 2 donuts). They first gave it in a bag instead of the box, and when I got home the sauce and donuts were missing. Staff seemed more focused on online orders than serving in-store customers. Worst GDK I’ve visited.

A portion size that's perfect for an ant. Packed with zero care. It's not my fault you hate your job.

So so good. Busy! Came in late at night, I liked that u could order on the screen things - helpful for decision making. Got the basic kebab thing - so good flavor. My boyfriend got the wrap, also good but I enjoyed mine more. Fries were good for sharing as well. Really hit the spot, could be considered a beacon in the night. Fives all around.

All meat on our menu is Halal. Please ask our staff to see the Halal certificate if you have any doubts.

Kleftico from @memlazbrasserie. Cooked leg of lamb with vegetables and rice

My first visit. 
Went here last night for dinner. A very old school small family style run restaurant. Loads of options on the menu but I ended ordering something that I had no idea about. Turned out to be a great choice. The lamb was so tender and fell off the bone with ease. It could have done with more seasoning and flavour. But at only £12 for this meal I was very impressed. 
There is pork in the menu and some dishes are cooked with wine. However, they can make without any wine as they saw we were Muslim. The chicken and lamb are halal only.

Possibly one of the most underrated hidden gems in London, intimate dining serving up DELICIOUS Turkish food 🤤🇹🇷 

We were in the area for lunch and dropped in to check out Mem & Laz’s lunch menu - Absolute bargain for two courses (We wanted to get desserts elsewhere) Highlyyyy recommend! Crunchy chilli sauce is also TO DIE for 🥹👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼

Mem & Laz Brasserie

We recently hosted a bridal shower in the private room at this Mediterranean restaurant, and I can’t say enough wonderful things about our experience. From the moment we arrived, the staff treated us with warmth, attentiveness, and genuine hospitality. They made the celebration feel special in every way.

The private room itself was absolutely beautiful—elegantly decorated, spacious, and filled with natural light. It struck the perfect balance between intimate and festive, creating a stunning backdrop for photos and making our bride-to-be feel truly celebrated.

The food was outstanding. Every dish—whether it was the fresh mezze, perfectly seasoned kebabs, or vibrant salads—was full of flavor and beautifully presented. Our guests were raving about the hummus, the lamb, and especially the baklava. Portions were generous, and everything tasted incredibly fresh.

What really elevated the experience, though, was the service. The staff was attentive without being intrusive, quick to refill drinks, accommodate dietary needs, and ensure the event flowed smoothly. They made us feel completely taken care of, which allowed us to relax and enjoy the celebration.

Overall, this restaurant exceeded every expectation. If you’re looking for a gorgeous venue with delicious Mediterranean cuisine and exceptional service, I can’t recommend it enough—especially for hosting a special event like a bridal shower. It truly made the day unforgettable.

I am always treated like VIP whenever I go to this gorgeous treasure spot. The food, ambience and service are⁶ premium. The wide variety of dishes means there is something for everyone snd the food arrives fresh and well presented! This year I decided to have my Christmas day lunch at Mem & Laz and booked an early time to accommodate my mobility challenge. Sonia  ,the manager, booked me in and asked me what I needed to br safe and comfortable.. My family and I were taken good  care of and it was quite a busy despite being Christmas Day!

I celebrated my bridal party at Mem & Laz, and it truly felt like a fairy tale. The atmosphere, food, and service were all perfect. A special thank you to Sonnur Abla for her incredible effort and kindness—she made the night unforgettable. Highly recommended.

I went here for dinner and was very happy. The staff are incredibly welcoming and friendly. We came with a large party and the food once we ordered came very quickly which was very nice. My food was cooked perfectly and was incredibly tasty. Prices were also quite reasonable. I was also impressed with the large selection of wines and cocktails. All in all I would definitely recommend going here and will hopefully return again.

Lovely place! The food was tasty and fresh, and everything came out hot and well presented. One of that staff was so friendly and assisted us to choose the best fish. The atmosphere is relaxed but still feels special, perfect for a nice meal out.

We have halal options available. You can call the restaurant and consult staff for halal food.

Great service and lovely staff members! I was served by the Andre, and he gave exceptional service!! Will definitely be returning! It was my first time there, he was very patient, kind and explained everything to me in detail as I was completely new to everything, overall I throughly enjoyed the food! I hope he sees this and knows he’s great at his job! Thank you Chillango 🤩

I was tempted to give the food a 4 because of the limited vegan options. But that wouldn’t be fair as it’s not a vegan restaurant and there are sufficient options. Besides the taste and quality is excellent as well as super filling.

This was my first time and the staff were great at explaining the process and options. It is fun and reassuring to watch them prepare your meal and be asked what you want included; an anxious vegans’ dream.

The decor is super colourful and fun. My only critique of the atmosphere was the music was really loud; which was a little much during the day while the restaurant wasn’t full. Great Latin vibe though.

A fantastic experience and I will come again.

I always love coming to Chilango. The burritos are the best I have had in London. I was served by Ravi who was friendly, speedy and made a great burrito as always. Highly recommend!

Found this place by mistake. Great interior design, the staff was friendly. Nice burritos, tried the chilango and steak burritos. We got fries with sauce and it was fresh.

Spacious seating areas are available. The restrooms are in the basement and it was clean.

We've been going there twice a month (at least) for the last 6 months. All ingredients are fresh and tasty, the beef and chicken are cooked to perfection, the guacamole is full of flavours and the sauce in the salad is delicious. And the staff is delightful, we've now become regulars, they always greet us with a hello and a smile, we love this place!

Had a good experience for dinner at this branch.

We ordered the tonkotsu x ramen which was delicious, flavoursome and was a decent portion size. The broth was rich and silky.

The staff were friendly and provided great service, and the restaurant had a relaxed atmosphere.

There's a good selection of food and drink options on the menu. I really like my iced oolong tea.

The food is excellent and the service superb, with exceptionally kind staff. A full sensory delight — more than recommended! The atmosphere is cozy, and the ramen is among the best I’ve ever tasted.

Had a quick lunch here last week. The ramen was delicious, and the restaurant was spacious and clean. Also, there’s no service charge here, which is a nice bonus!

Wow, this place used to be passable but can now only be described as overpriced worse than instant ramen. We ordered gyoza and chicken paiten ramen for the tokyo signature wavy yellow noodles. Base ramen cost around £19, with extras and gyoza around £33 for one person (spendy but for good ramen delivered I was willing to pay). Noodles were hard, thick, brittle and not in an aldente way - it's not an exaggeration that shin ramen would have been more enjoyable. Gyoza tasted hard and frozen, similar to waitrose offering. That's the last time I'll be visiting this place.

If you are vegetarian or only eat halal, there are few options here.

The vegetarian option for ramen was not good at all. I understand that the base of a ramen broth is traditionally meat based so I am not complaining. But maybe this isn’t a dish that is meant to be vegetarian, a taste nice!

The other option are the croquettes, curry and rice.
The deep fried croquettes are really really nice and curry sauce compliments it well.

Yuzu lemonade is really nice and refreshing too. On the sweeter side.

Service is exceptional.

Banana Tree Islington

My first visit at this place.
Been welcomed by a staff member and a manager who seated me while she could as it was a little busy.
She was very polite and friendly.
I ordered tofu laksa and I asked for no aubergine inside as I don’t like it.
The soup was full of flour and spicy but I been warned and I was aware of it as well but I don’t mind spices.
I been asked if I am allergic to anything and also the special lunch offer was presented to me and I could have free soft drink.
The decor is nice and cozy.
I paid 12.32£ which I think is reasonable.
The wait for the food wasn’t long at all.
Thanks.

Not as busy and didn't have the hectic rumble of other Banana Trees. So the food came quickly and efficiently.

Alex our service provider was funny and charming. Had good banter and made good recommendations.

The atmosphere was chilled and I wasn't in a rush to eat even with the 90 mins time for the "Bottomless Bowl". I would highly recommend and it's only 5 mins away from Angel station.

Excellent service from some very lovely staff, made us feel truly welcome. Interiors are very nice and family friendly. The food was absolutely delicious, lots of variety to choose from, you're effectively spoilt for choice. The Banana Fritters at the end was incredible and a great way to finish the meal. Highly recommended!

We opted for a selection of small plates/starters and not one of them disappointed. Such flavour and delicious dishes.
Staff are very welcoming and attentive throughout our dining experience.
I would highly recommend.

I had a great experience at Banana Tree in Angel. The customer service was excellent — friendly, attentive, and very quick. I ordered the lunch deal and was impressed with how delicious the food was and how fast it arrived. Overall, a really smooth and enjoyable visit. I’ll definitely be coming back!

All chicken and beef on our menu is Halal.

Amazing food, the Staff were really great. My friend never normally orders a blue steak anywhere but tonight was exceptional. When we arrived we were relocated to a great table opposite the kitchen.  Great evening!.

Amazing! We booked a table at Farringdon restaurant for 2 on Friday, it was soooo good we booked table for 4 Saturday as well!
Food was outbid this world - all of it. The choice cut T-Bone was best I’ve had and I’ve had a fair offering of steaks over the years.

The service was exceptional and special praise must go to Anita who was just sensational, so friendly and knowledgeable she couldn’t do enough for us.

You need to go try this place out!

Excellent meal. Came for a birthday and they made sure we felt like it the entire meal! The best steak I’ve ordered in a long time and sides fantastic too. Ahsan was fantastic.

I had a wonderful dinner with my partner for my birthday, I would highly recommend Macellaio for a special occasion. We were served by the very kind Silvia who explained all the steak cuts to us in detail and made sure we had the best dinner. I also got a lovely birthday tiramisu and we were offered a couple of digestivi at the end. The atmosphere and decor of the restaurant was also perfect for an evening of steak and red wine 🍷 all in all, we had a great time here and I look forward to the next visit.

Lovely place had. A great table in the back. The food was excellent (well a bit better than that).  Service very good.

Pho Islington

I visited PHO few times already, it’s an amazing place to have a delicious meal.
I have always had a great experience in this particular branch.
Place is always clean, tidy and quite busy.
Despite the busy restaurant and busy Deliveroo  staff members are managing very well.
My soup is always tasty and full of flavour.
I always order curry noodle soup with extra tofu or mushrooms which is amazing.
Can’t wait to try other dishes.
Can’t recommend this place enough.
It’s such a nice vibe inside.
I was given a very nice card from the manager and some local discount which made the experience in the restaurant even better.
Manager Jola is always very friendly and we always have little chat, she is a great leader.
Thank You PHO team!
Will be back soon.

The food not only was lovely and flavourful, the portions were also nice and the staff were very kind and helpful! The new manager made sure our food was to the best quality and that customer service was top tier. Will definitely be coming back soon! Thank you for such a lovely experience

The food was superb (it came out hot and flavorful) and their service was quick and friendly. I loved too that they offer videos of their dishes for anyone in need of examples of how to best enjoy and assemble their meals. All around a great experience!

Had lunch here during our visit to the yearly Stampex show at the nearby Business Design Centre.
Boyfriend had eaten here before so it came recommended.
Both of us ordered fried spring rolls (both pork and veg versions available) - preferred the pork (very good texture) and the peanut sauce I could have eaten all day. Delicious.
We both picked the Beef combo pho - steak, brisket and meatballs. Absolutely heavenly. A little surprising not to have the option to add chilli peppers but compared to the pho we’ve had in Vietnam, it was very very good as is.
Service was quick and friendly. Will definitely eat here again.

Went for a weekday dinner and was easy to get a table. Generous portions, good food, albeit service was a tad slow. The pork spring rolls were the highlight for me.

Eat-in and takeaway restaurant, part of small chain, serving soft, filled tortillas and burritos.

Tortilla Islington

Was my first time trying Mexican food, and I was blown away. The food was so flavourful and the staff so helpful. They guided me on how to order and was very helpful with suggesting what I’d like according to my preference. The portion size was also great. I went for the medium chicken asado bowl and they filled it to the brim. They also don’t skip on the toppings and you can ask for more. I couldn’t finish the medium bowl at once, so I would say the portion size was good and really filling. I personally enjoyed it so much I got it 2 days in a row!! Also if you’re a student, the app has great deals for you. Overall, I had a great experience and definitely enjoyed my first Mexican meal. Definitely recommend.

Easy and friendly place when you need a quick and healthy meal. I had the burrito with Mexican rice, roasted vegetables, guacamole and cheese sauce. I was with my daughter who is vegetarian and she had a vegetarian burrito which tasted great. We also had tortilla chips, delicious. Portion sizes were generous and the service was quick.

Friendly staff, Stephanie explained all the choices and gave some recommendations. The place was clean and looked very efficient as we ate and watched people come and go.

Definitely recommend this place for its tasty food and friendly service.

Amazing atmosphere - Abdul and Erika we’re stars! Arguably “the best burrito ever”. Most toppings are free and super super fresh … sleeves up and dig in.

Just what i needed so good! perfect with the meal deal they offered, got to try the kefir water (not my thing though hehe) Service great when they came to check on us  I kind of mentioned I didn’t like my drink 🙈 no complain it was my choice but they gave me a Fanta on the house Thank you!

As a California native Abdul and Erika made me feel so at home I just have to say they made the experience very pleasant

Chick ‘n’ Sours style flavour and flair

Chicken Shop

Absolutely delicious! The chicken burger was perfectly cooked and full of flavor, and the mango milkshake was just amazing—so refreshing and creamy. Loved every bite and sip!

I came into the shop expecting a wait for my food but I kid you not I ordered a full meal (barbecue chicken tenders, two chips and a drink) and it came out in less than 2 minutes! I was not expecting this and the waiter+service was amazing! I would definitely suggest this spot particularly as the atmosphere is quite cosy due to its size and comfy seating.

Akash is a legend! Recommendations was on point! The double slaw burger went down an absolute treat! The crispness of the chicken along with the heavenly slaw was so good! Chips were very well seasoned along with a cheese sauce that surprisingly light!

Definitely will come back after hearing all the hype!

The staff was great and extremely friendly. The burger is bigger than whatever you think it is. OMG!! Tasty and filling. The cheesy fries were also very good. I love the fact that they serve bottomless drinks. I would definitely come again.

Dropped in here for a quick bite and have to say their tenders were some of the best we’ve had! Hot, fresh and well seasoned and their fries were also decent, overall way better than wingstop or slim chickens and would gladly return. 9/10 overall

Our chicken is certified Halal to the highest welfare standards. Please be aware that we do handle bacon as well, though if you request it, our servers can change gloves for your order.

PizzaExpress

I tryied to have a pizza in Angel area. Inwas really impressed of the quality of pizza they offer. We had the American classic and it was really good. The service and everything were also fine. Its a nice choice if you are craving for pizza in London since there is in several locations all over London. Just try it!

This was the WORSE dining experience out with my family.

I left feeling livid !!!

So Firstly

Where me and my family were seated was infested with flies. (Corner seats right by the toilet/baby changing)

Waitress split drink on my sister’s phone and didn’t even offer to wipe the table (1st waitress).

Normally at pizza express the waitress/waiter would pour the can of soft drink at the table or bring the can to the table to allow the customer to pour the drink themselves. But no she brought all drinks already pre poured to the brim and when you’re with 4 hungry children that’s an instant wardrobe hazard.

The starters were not hot and tasted like they had been sitting on the side for a while (not fresh)

I cannot fathom working in an open space establishment and not know that a corner of the restaurant has so many flies. And still decide to seat paying customers there. DISGUSTING!!!

So we were then moved upstairs.

Waited over an hour for our food and that may not sound like a ridiculously long time but we had 4 children (3 under 5, one being a new born). Not to mention, the waitress took the table’s order within the first 10 minutes of our arrival.

Rude waitress upstairs (2nd waitress)

Brought re heated food.
The food wasn’t fresh.
Took extremely long
Nearly two hours for the children to get their desserts.

Asked to speak to the manager and after waiting over 10 minutes a bold headed man did come to our table and to be fair he wasn’t rude and offered 20% off the bill but it still didn’t feel like we were heard and kind of just wanted to fob us off.

After long wait children’s desserts were not up to par and when I questioned the waitress about the standard of my children’s desserts the response was EXTREMELY rude.

So I asked to speak to a manager again and waited 5 more minutes before deciding to go downstairs and find a manager as at this point I’m exhausted, extremely unhappy and irritated at this point.

Ended up speaking to a different, more senior manager I was told. (Nice guy/very professional. Dark hair/Glasses He could have been maybe Turkish or somewhere Eastern European. My apologies if I’m wrong)

Explained the full situation felt like he heard me and understood the situation. Ended up waiving the bill and claimed he’ll try and compensate for terrible experience with good will vouchers (let’s see if he comes through them)

Still left feeling LIVID !!!

I don’t ever write reviews but I had to because of how bad this experience was.

I’ve been dining at pizza express restaurants all over the country for over 10 years and never have I experienced anything as bad as today.

A lovely small restaurant, that makes fresh pizzas and pastas. Great choice for family gatherings or even a casual date night! They change menu every seasons and has offers to make dining more affordable!

We visited pizza express in Angel Islington in the weekday afternoon.
It wasn’t very busy.
We were welcomed by a manager who seated us where we wished as it was almost empty.
He was very polite and friendly.
Restaurant was clean and tidy.
Our food was delicious.
Desserts were very tasty too.
Great experience, it was our first time in this branch but for sure not last.
We felt cared for.
I really like that I could use my app to pay which is very easy and collect stamp.

Pizza Express never disappoints when it comes to their food—the pizza is always reliably good. But what really made this visit stand out was the amazing staff. One team member in particular was incredibly friendly and full of positive energy. He went out of his way to help me sign up for the app so I could get free dough balls—such a nice touch! It’s small things like that which make a place memorable. Definitely coming back!

PizzaExpress has used halal-slaughtered chicken for several years, but we have never been able to offer a finished dish that was Halal-certified, due to the presence of pork and other non-halal meats in our restaurants and as our kitchens do not operate halal procedures.

Whilst our previous suppliers provided halal slaughtered chicken, it was never our policy for that to be our only option. Since the launch of our Autumn Menu on the 21st September our chicken now comes from accredited suppliers that use both non-halal and halal slaughter methods, because we have recently increased our sourcing options on chicken to ensure continuity of supply during the current challenges within all supply chains.

Where halal slaughter is used, the animals are stunned before slaughter. All our meat suppliers are approved by the Brand Reputation Compliance Global Standards, a globally renowned safety standard and, all comply with EU or local animal welfare regulations.

If asked our teams in restaurants are trained to provide customers with accurate menu and ingredient information. In addition, this information is available on the customer support section of our website.

Please be aware that none of our other meats are halal and we do not have any halal kitchens or restaurants.

Buns From Home

Got caught in the rain and ducked into Buns From Home, which turned out to be the best decision of my day. A staff member offered me a warm coffee, so I got a perfect oat latte and I tried the banana & walnut bun plus their weekend special! Both were absolutely delicious, but the weekend bun was the star…perfectly sweet, and fluffy with that meringue topping, FAB. It honestly brightened up what started as a rough day. The key lime pie was the highlight of my weekend 🤗 Highly recommend, especially if you need a pick-me-up, however I really miss the cardamom bun!

although with a chain of it's pretty decent quality buns, I had the cheesecake one and along with the cinnamon roll and it had very good flavors. I would say definitely European quality, although cinnamon bun could have been less dense, but that it might be just my particular taste. anyway, I think I would recommend to try it out

The pistachio bun, man. What a beauty. Ok the pricy side… (who pays £4.95 for a bun?) but a splendidly indulgent spot of baking, with pistachio sauce moist in the middle crunchy on top. Well worth the queue.

The eggnog roll I just got from this place was demolished in two seconds. It is literally perfect. The eggnog filling has a creamy creme brulee feel to it with all the christmasy tastes and the pastry is the perfect balance of crunchy and soft 🤤

Went with my amazing girlfriend and her friends for her birthday. Tried a selection of the filled buns, all extremely good. Also tried the focaccia which was very good, and I’m Italian.

The only two buns flavours on our permanent menu that aren’t vegetarian are our ham and cheese bun and our tiramisu bun (pork gelatine). We are currently trying to switch over to fish gelatine but it’s proving harder than we expected. None of the permanent flavours contain alcohol. Occasionally, weekend specials will contain one or both of these ingredients, in which case we will be sure to mention this on the instagram announcement. 

YORI Korean BBQ Restaurant (King's Cross)

I chose this place based on its Google Maps rating, but unfortunately my experience was extremely disappointing.

First of all, this is the first Korean BBQ restaurant I’ve ever been to where the side dishes (kimchi, bean sprouts, pickled radish) did not appear to be freely refilled. Considering the £50+ per person price point, this felt unreasonably stingy and completely out of line with standard Korean BBQ dining.

We ordered the most expensive platter for two. No one helped us with the grilling, and while the portion size was acceptable, the quality and flavour of the meat were nothing special.

What really ruined the experience was the complete lack of proper ventilation. The grill had no effective smoke extraction at all, and the smoke simply spread throughout the restaurant. The smell was overwhelming and irritating, making it very uncomfortable to dine there.

To make things worse, I ordered a cocktail and was shocked to find the glass was chipped. It could have easily cut my lips. Neither the bartender nor the servers noticed or addressed this, which raises serious concerns about basic safety and attention to detail.

Overall, this place is overpriced, poorly managed, and not worth the hype. I would not return, and I would not recommend it.

food is decent. authentic I would say. probably 80% to Seoul standard. cannot complain on that part. price is affordable in terms of central London. only thing really annoys me is the table is too tight and spacing is not that good. waiters hits ny chair couple times. Not their fault but the floor design is just too tight. friendly staff overall.

First time trying Korean BBQ. All the meat was good quality and great way to spend time and laugh with friends or family. Service was amazing as well. Did not have to ask for anything.

I visited Yori and tried the beef selection, and it was outstanding. The meat was fresh, tender, and full of flavor, with each cut prepared and cooked to perfection. The whole experience was truly enjoyable, and Yori is definitely one of the best places in London for authentic Korean barbecue. Highly recommended for all beef lovers!

Overall I would not go there again. Yori barbecue selection was fine to share for 2 people and it came with some small garnishes (3 types: onions, cucumber and radish), as well as some salad. It did not even come with rice or any sauces. Most of the meat was not marinated and the quality of the meat was basic, so it was chewy and did not have any special taste. They loaded the meat selection with cheap chicken but only put two shrimps. The place itself was not very clean - the chairs were sticky, and the table was stainy. The pot you cook on of course emits a lot of small droplets and smell and by the end of the evening you clothes will completely soak the smell. That could potentially be a nicer experience with the real charcoal but they only have electric pot. The staff were nice

Hot Stone London

Overall, a pretty pleasant experience. We arrived on time for our reservation and were seated quickly. Just a note for anyone purchasing a voucher online — you’ll need to book your reservation using the voucher details, and there are set time slots specifically for the 5-course menu days.

The pacing of the courses varied a bit; a few dishes took longer to arrive than others, but it seemed consistent with what other tables were experiencing as well. Despite the wait times, the food quality was high, especially the Wagyu and seafood selections.

We enjoyed the afternoon and would consider coming back for a special occasion.

I come here for anniversary celebration, after seeing it over ig. It’s amazing experience with lovely presentations, and food are genuinely good as authentic Japanese meal, though some sushi rolls here are still very ‘western’. The sashimi are fresh and yummy. Love the hot stone steak as the main it’s not only yummy to eat it’s fun to eat. I definitely will bring more friends to be here.

Hot Stone London offers a truly memorable dining experience, bringing premium Japanese cuisine together with a unique and interactive style of cooking. The restaurant is intimate and elegant, with a warm, understated atmosphere that makes it ideal for special occasions or a refined night out. From the moment you arrive, the staff are attentive, knowledgeable, and eager to guide you through the menu.

The highlight, of course, is the hot stone cooking. High-quality wagyu, seafood, and other cuts are served raw for you to sear to perfection at the table, creating a fun and immersive experience while showcasing the exceptional ingredients. Their sushi and sashimi are equally impressive—fresh, beautifully prepared, and rich in flavour.

The sake and wine pairings complement the dishes perfectly, and the presentation throughout is flawless. Hot Stone London combines creativity, premium produce, and polished service to deliver a dining experience that feels luxurious, engaging, and truly unforgettable.

Anniversary, £75pp menu, 5 courses, last one dessert. It took 15 minutes for anybody to approach us…. Very small portions but great quality of plates, sashimi and seared fish😍half a mochi each and a lemon and raspberry panna cotta (?) for dessert, though. Sushi rolls for third course were amazing. Bill around 210 including three drinks and service charge! Lovely and small interior, Can get smoky when people cook their meat on the hotstone :)

Brought my girlfriend here for lunch for her birthday. The crunchy hot stone roll sushi was very nice. The black cod roll was amazing although a very small portion. I enjoyed the spinach with sesame dressing. My girlfriend said the cocktails were some of the best she’s ever had, we had the Way to Kyoto and Secret Geisha. We also had the seared salmon and then wagyu platter and seafood selection on hotstone.

Whilst overall the food was good, we were quite disappointed with the instructions given to cook the seafood selection and wagyu on the hotstone and told we had 6 minutes to cook everything. It was all very rushed and we couldn’t cook everything in time, I even had half a raw prawn because I wasn’t told that the shell had to come off first (it was butterflied so assumed not required) We had to then ask for a second hotstone to cook again.

Service would have probably been better if it wasn’t as packed out. Very busy restaurant so quite loud overall. Still worth checking out if you like sashimi and wagyu, especially when they have discounts because it’s quite expensive otherwise

We have couple of Australian halal wagyu options to cook on Hot stone & have selection of fresh fish & seafood. Please ask our staff for details.
