Harden's survey result
Summary
Claiming to be London’s oldest Japanese restaurant (although originally it operated a couple of streets away), this Marylebone veteran just off Baker Street has always had its pros and cons. The main plus is its traditional sushi and other fare incorporating “super-fresh fish”. On the downside, critics have perennially found it OTT pricewise; and even fans – who say it’s “super-relaxed at the counter chatting with the friendly Itamae” – also note that “atmosphere can be a little lacking”.
For 34 years we've been curating reviews of the UK's most notable restaurant. In a typical year, diners submit over 50,000 reviews to create the most authoritative restaurant guide in the UK. Each year, the guide is re-written from scratch based on this survey (although for the 2021 edition, reviews are little changed from 2020 as no survey could run for that year).
