We've been eating at Cafe Japan since it opened. First time we've been since the dramatic transformation of the interior. The service was very attentive. The food was beautiful and has been refined somewhat and we really loved it. Slightly more expensive but I think worth it.

I have been going here since the 90s when I used to live close by. Management has changed hands since but I still see this as closest to genuine sushi as you can get in this price range. Yes, the rice isn't at body temperature but then you aren't sitting at Jiro's counter top ! The chef is attentive and it's a joy watching them prepare omakase

Classic sushi. I've had sushi a few times in London, and this seems to be the most authentic. The service is very quick and polite. The sushi chefs are clearly experienced. The sushi, while not the best I've ever had, did exhibit colourful flavors. I didn't expect it to outdo the places I've experienced in Los Angeles, but this could easily be the best in the area.... I'll have to try more places to verify, but this is a great start to good Japanese food.

Perhaps not the fanciest interior, but the food is truly I die for-one of the best and most authentic Japanese restaurants in London-definitely with the trek to Golders Green, but booking essential as it's always packed, and no wonder!

The best sushi in town. I absolutely LOVE Cafe Japan. The quality of sushi and the high standard of service is what keeps me coming back. Plus the unbelievable crispy fried salmon inside out rolls - I don't know what that sauce is but it is AMAZING!!

I'm yet to find a better, more consistent (and cheap!) place to get my sashimi.

Great price for 14 pieces of omakase experience. It’s a busy restaurant so make a reservation and already booked another time to come back.

Amazing quality sashimi and sushi, much higher quality than any other London restaurants I've been to! Price also very fair, considering the quality. Very unassuming entrance and restaurant name,however it should not be missed for any sushi lovers

I have to say that this is the best japanese restrant in London. They serve very quickly even if it was busy time with full of people around 7:30pm. And the stuffes are probably all japanese with a lots of respect. Food was fantastic : We had Oysters with Yuzu, Agedashi Tofu( Inside is thick and outside was so crunchy with thick skin), Sardine deep fried with shiso leaf, and Sushi assortment ( As soon as you put shusi inslde your mouth, Umami is spread with sweetnes). House Sake has full of cultures as they put a glass inside a box called Masu. You should try.

Absolutely wonderful food. I had the sashimi platter and a selection of nigiri and inside-out rolls. Not only were they all delicious, but everything was perfectly presented, and included freshly grated wasabi and good quality soy sauce. I'd recommend a bottle of sake to wash it all down. A gem of a place.

Really Authentic Japanese food. It's expensive but well worth the price for a special treat. The sushi is very fresh and has a strong umami and fresh ocean flavour. Had the Tako wasabi, Age dashi Tofu and Yuzu Oyster which were all very tasty. And A sushi set which was the highlight. Great Sake too. Generous portion.

Always a joy to come and eat. The sashimi and sushi are fresh and of fantastic quality. The service is good and the decor is simple but very functional. Price is moderate and would definitely come back again. We have eaten a lot and we have only posted a selection of our food missing 2 rolls.

Wanted to try out Cafe Japan for quite some time, especially after seeing so many good reviews for their Omakase. We opted for their normal menu instead of going for Omakase. Wide variety of choices from the main menu + lunch menu + daily specials. Everything has a nice flavour and fresh ingredients were used. This is an authentic spot for proper Japanese food with great service (slightly slow on a Saturday). They also do not charge for service fee which is a plus.

I loved this place! I'm enthusiastic to have found another great place for sushi! There is a good variety of choices (Suzuki, Tai, Hamachi, Buri) and the quality definitely stands out (I suppose it is because the fish is supplied by Atariya). We had for starters edamame and agedashi tofu. For thefish, we had the nigiri omakase (chef's choice) and 7 kinds of sashimi. Last but not least, the price, which might appear expensive, is adequate in my opinion to the quality and the service you receive.

Totally unassuming entrance, name and location. But my goodness, this place has some of the best sushi in the city. Price is very fair too. Service is definitely on the slow side unfortunately.

Impeccable sushi - cooked stuff is very good too . Sushi is on par with , it not better than the sushi I ate in Japan over the past few months . Cafe Japan has had its ups and downs over the past few decades but under Atari-ya group it has been consistently excellent for a while now . So happy to have this gem nearby .
