Honestly completely surpassed my expectations! The staff was so lovely and I don't recall ever having a faster service in London than here. Staff deserve the biggest raise ever 🫶 Food was delicious and even though we were warned about long waiting times we only waited for about 10 minutes. Definitely recommend this place for a date or a birthday. We will visit again soon!!
The lamb was a bit overdone and not super tender. I couldn’t chew some pieces. The salmon sashimi and the kimchi fried rice were delicious but the rice wasn’t actually “fried”. I ordered two of the sakes and they were great as well. I recommend this place if you’re in the area looking for Japanese food.
We had a great time at Inko Nito, and enjoyed their classic tasting menu. The food is good, and some dishes are really impressive. The atmosphere is good,and you can see how the chef making the grilled dishes in the central open kitchen. Staffs there are super friendly and helpful, recommended :)
Upon visiting this restaurant for lunch there was absolutely nothing to complain about.
From the calm atmosphere, and incredible service, to the great food and tasting menu put together by the chefs — my mother and I left the restaurant merely wanting to return to it again!
Such an amazing restaurant, we were really blown away. I booked dinner here to celebrate my cousin’s graduation and I was initially a little worried about the fact that the seats were counted style seats. However, it actually made the restaurant feel really open and not crowded at all, and we still felt like we could have our own private space. The servers are all so amazing and constantly checked up on us to make sure our meal was going well. The food was so delicious and the items coming from the robata grill in particular smelled even more amazing. I had already planned to order the aubergine, and at the restaurant, they were literally flying off the grill because they were that popular. We also got the tofu karaage, mushrooms, kimchi rice, mussels, bone marrow, lamb, and salmon sashimi. I would genuinely recommend all of them. The dishes are quite small, so prepare to order a lot if you are a big group.
Visited this restaurant last weekend with my partner for date night, great spot if you're looking for somewhere more casual. The food overall was nice, I'd recommend the prawn and leak dumplings, crab sushi was fresh but a little bland, kimchi rice also lacking flavour and spice. However, my partners main saved the day for him, he loved his pork dish, utter perfection. Cocktails were also a hit, watermelon slushy was delicious. Service was really warm and friendly, pre-warning if you're sitting at the counter top be prepared to have arms learning across you and having to move over a lot, rather annoying but not the end of the world. If I could provide some constructive criticism, perhaps give customers more time on arrival to settle in, look at the menu and enjoy the ambience, we barely sat down longer than 1 minute and was being asked if we was ready to order. Nevertheless, a good experience, but I wouldn't hurry to return.
Great place at Soho!
Following the brothers Zuma, Roka, this robata restaurant it's pretty cool to have a great dinner and spend a good night with music, food and people!
Different products and really nice meat!
Starters, cocktails, and really good food in the heart of Soho!
Light and style is great!
Great food, service and vibe. I’ve been twice, ordering different items each time, and I’ve really liked all the dishes. Although the tasting menu was great the first time I went, I preferred ordering my own dishes this time, especially because the tasting menu left out the sushi dishes which were excellent! This place has been set up by the same people who made Zuma, and you can tell they brought their experience with them - definitely recommend.
Date night 23rd March! Table for 2.
It was an amazing experience and finally I managed to surprise my girlfriend.
Since the beginning the staff was super friendly and welcoming. All the tables are shared except if you’re booking for more than 4 people or for groups(I assume). We had lovely neighbours at our table and everyone was minding their business. We chose the set menu for two people. I would say that everything was delicious and perfectly cooked, well presented!
As a cocktail we chose their signature Spritz with some melon which one was another great decision.
Whenever they saw our water glasses are almost empty the waitress or other floor staff came and filled them up for us straight away. If the plates were empty they were cleaning down the table without mistake.
Well Done to them all!
I’ll hope to be back soon!
Thank you for the great experience!
Very cozy restaurant with nice vibes. I had the testing menu which had an amazing combination of great flavors and texture. There was a good balance of warm and cold dishes - the menu is large and will definitely get you full. The only little thing about this place was that the coordination/communication amongst the staff team was not very aligned. Got asked about ordering, drinks and satisfaction of food right after each other many times. But the staff time was very kind so it is not that the service wasn’t good but hard to talk with the people you came to enjoy the dinner with when dishes are served extremely quickly and you are asked by the waiters repetitively
Seriously good! The staff were brilliant - so friendly and accommodating. The food was great; quick to arrive, but they also gave the option of slowing things down if you wanted.
Went here for an anniversary dinner. Amazing food! I particularly liked the pork belly and it's tangy sauce. Great attentive waitresses who gave us good recommendations! Personally, the music is too loud to hear my partner next to me. Overall, it is a beautiful high-end restaurant!
What a place, the people were so nice, and the delivery of the food was great. The flavors were awesome. We started with Inko star cocktail and Inko old-fashioned. Then we got a couple of things from the menu. Tuna and crab tartare, crab maki roll, Korean cauliflower maki roll, japanese breadcrumb fried chicken, bone marrow, roasted pork belly. Last but not least cheesecake.

If you're looking for a unique Japanese dining experience in the heart of Soho, INKO NITO delivers with its unconventional approach to Japanese cuisine.
Upon arrival, I was promptly seated at a single table by the window, perfect for people-watching on a sunny day. Speaking of which, the attentive team at INKO NITO offered me a refreshing ice-cold water to combat the heat, a small touch that went a long way in making me feel comfortable.
Now onto the food - I ordered the Crispy Prawn Maki with Wasabi Mayo, the Steamed Prawn and Leek Dumplings with Ginger Ponzu, and the Aubergine with Garlic Lemon Miso and Spring Onions. The stand-out dish for me was definitely the prawn maki - perfectly crunchy on the outside with a satisfyingly juicy prawn filling, and a zingy punch from the wasabi mayo. The dumplings were also delicate and delicious, with a tangy kick from the ginger ponzu.
However, the aubergine dish fell a bit short for me. While the idea of lemon miso and spring onions sounded promising, the execution was underwhelming and lacked the depth of flavour I was anticipating.
Overall, the atmosphere at INKO NITO was buzzing and energetic, with a trendy industrial-chic aesthetic. The team were friendly and attentive, making for a seamless dining experience. While the aubergine dish wasn't quite up to scratch, the standout dishes more than made up for it. If you're in Soho and in the mood for some creative Japanese cuisine, INKO NITO definitely delivers the goods.
Best restaurant in soho! Japanese cuisine with Korean influence. Food wise was AMAZING!! Service was so chilled and relax. Super easy going, been there 5 times already and never disappointed
Really fortunate to be given a table as a walk in on a busy Saturday night and had the tasting menu for 3. The food was amazing and the staff were all very pleasant, good selection of drinks. Only downside was that we ordered 2/3 drinks which were never brought over and had to chase up, which we then found we had been billed for twice - which I'm attributing to how busy they were.
