Summary
“Exquisite Japanese fusion food as well as fabulously creative cocktails” have made this slick Clapham operation “a perennial favourite” for two decades; and it still gives West End names a run for their money. Top Tip – “gin dara – black cod with sweet miso. I know it’s a Nobu original but this is the best version in town”.
Summary
“A real gem” – “extraordinary” – this Clapham fixture has for many, many years produced some of “the best Japanese you can get, at a really reasonable price”: in fact, locals feel “to be honest, it’s far better than the very expensive well-known Japanese restaurants in Central London”. It also mixes up “some of the most innovative cocktails in town”. The catch: “it’s always packed so the service lets it down... but that means nothing when you taste the food”. “Pity the Fitzrovia branch closed” – but do try Yama Momo in East Dulwich.
Summary
“Far superior to Nobu and a fraction of the price!”; this fusion Japanese is a long-running fixture on the Clapham scene thanks to its “complex menu” of “consistently delicious” fusion fare and “fabulous” cocktails. Drawbacks? – service can be “clueless” and the interior “noisy”. Note, the West End branch (in Charlotte Street) is now closed, although the team has opened Yama Momo in East Dulwich.
