Not the nicest of all the places I've been to, but serves very good food.
I was attracted when walking past and seeing that is it packed with people. My friend loves authentic Japanese kitchen (well she is Japanese herself) and we decided to go for lunch one day.
As we got the menus she became very excited, reading the menu out in Japanese saying that the dishes are very authentic and not common to find in London. We both chose to order from the 'Hot meals' section as it was a competitive offer (miso soup, rice, side salad and a main of your choice for about 10 pounds). She went for the Salmon fillets pan-fried in Teriyaki sauce, and I went for the Chicken in Teriyaki sauce (this was before I realised that soya sauce has gluten in it). The meal was very tasty, and we though that it was an excellent place to go for a fast lunch.
I would say that this is a great little place in London to go to, if you want to eat healthy but definitely not a place for a romantic date.
Soho Japan is a traditional Japanese restaurant right across the Baker street tube station. Surrounded by chain restaurants/pubs, Soho Japan stands out. The menu is partly written in Japanese and offers dishes you can't find in big chains. The staff is friendly and the food was delicious. I recommend the green tea cheesecake and would definitely go back!
So happy to have found this friendly and super yummy Japanese restaurant ! Ask for a soft shell crab to be made for you just fried not in a roll. It's not on the menu so ask them to check with the kitchen ! Beautiful !
