We started off our meal with a refreshing homemade fresh mint lemonade and then tried some of their starters - Seaweed salad which tasted very fresh and had a lovely roasted sesame flavour from the toasted sesame seeds and roasted sesame oil. Followed by salted edamame pea pods which I haven't had in ages! Then we tried this off the menu special - this layered sushi 'cake' which had a beautiful tuna sashimi flower, buttery salmon sashimi, sushi rice, roe, sliced avocado, kewpie mayo and crab sticks. Keep an eye out for bigger version / birthday cakes of these in the future! Then we had the Pumpkin Japanese curry with sushi rice - this was so comforting and delicious. I especially enjoyed the sauce and sweet fried Pumpkin. Followed by this beautiful sushi boat! This felt v special as I haven't had sushi from a restaurant in ages. This was filled with a selection of 20 pieces of sushi selected by the chef - including sashimi, uramaki and hosomaki mmmmm. Then we tried a selection of their desserts - black sesame ice cream which was on point. Red bean doroyaki (Hal's first time trying) which was delicious. I'd never tried it chocolate sauce or cream which was a great edition. Followed by the cheesecake, berry and green mathca mochi ice cream - super chewy and delicious. My fave was the berry one and Hal enjoyed the cheesecake flavour. If you haven't already - make sure to check out Izakaya's wonderful new bright venue and if you've got a special occasion coming up check out their private hire options. I can't wait for my next visit to go back and get more fish! FYI - they have great gluten free and vegan options too 👀 .

Loved the experience, best sushi in bristol, we had the mochi stick (3 flavour ice cream with rice flour) delicious!!! Cute decor with colourful posters of Japanese street food.
