East Street by Tampopo Fitzrovia

4.7 is an honest rating, and it’s definitely our discovery of the year so far! We tried the Christmas menu, which is available for groups of 4+ persons. It includes many of the most popular dishes from the menu and turned out to be a great choice. In addition, we ordered Pad Thai and chili/garlic edamame — both were amazing. All the food is prepared with great care and full of flavor. The place gets quite busy, so making a reservation is recommended. The street-style Asian design creates a great vibe, and the service was good as well. Ofc you have to love Asian food to enjoy of it, many plate has strong tastes, which I love. So it’s recommended. We will definitely come back with friends again

We had a few doubts before going in because the restaurant was quite empty, but oh my gosh… this ended up being some of the best food we had during our London trip. The flavours were incredible — the laksa soup and the chicken patty were simply amazing, full of rich and authentic taste. Everything felt fresh and comforting. The prices are absolutely reasonable, especially considering it’s located in a very touristic area. If you’re looking for affordable, delicious Asian food, this place is a huge recommendation. We loved it and would definitely come back! Maisha was amazing.

We stumbled upon this restaurant as it was one of the only places open after the theatre, and I’m glad we did. With so many countries’ cuisines to choose from, we went with the beef rendang roti, nasi goreng and katsu udon soup, all of which hit the spot. Especially given the price, it exceeded expectations. The restaurant was decorated with interesting trinkets and signs from a variety of Southeast Asian and East Asian countries, everything was perfectly curated and made us feel like we weren’t actually sitting in London. Would definitely visit again.
