So glad we found this place whilst staying in Norfolk on holiday, it's so difficult to find good sushi outside of London and Soyokaze certainly meets the grade.
We have since purchased a holiday home about 2 miles away and ensure when we stay Soyokaze is first on our list of places to visit.
For anyone who hasn't tried Japanese food (it isn't all raw fish!) Or is looking for great quality fresh, food then would highly recommend you try here.
My first visit and Soyokaze is worth every 5* rating and more. The food was amazing, the service was very efficient and the staff were welcoming... I would most definitely recommend this restaurant. I can not wait to return �

Really excellent food. The Miso soup is the best I've eaten. Lovely atmosphere, attentive staff and great value. Can't wait to visit again.
This is some of the most amazing tasting food I've had; I enjoyed every mouthful!! I highly recommend coming here!
The best Japanese food I’ve had, outside of Japan. Every bite took me right back to Tokyo. And it is very inexpensive.

Great tasting, The best sushi I've had in Norwich!
Beautifully prepared, delicious, salmon tereyaki is to die for.
Just had the most amazing food!! Veggie volcano is sooo good! Great service can't wait to go back my new favourite place to eat in Norwich!
One of the best sushi ive ever tried! Well done Norwich team! Just bit hands down as there aren't high chairs so i cannot go with my family there more often :(
Second visit and still beautiful fresh food, reasonably priced, with attentive but not overpowering service.
Delicious lunch with my daughter who enjoyed it just as much. Friendly staff, great food and atmosphere. A welcome addition to Norwich.
Our first time here tonight, on a whim. Best whim we've had in ages! :) Really impressed with the food, the staff were on the ball and friendly, the atmosphere was comfortable and the prices were good. We will definitely recommend and return. There is so much more on the menu that we want to try - if it is all as good as the food we had tonight we are in for some good evenings. Thank you.
Great food, super accommodating & friendly staff. Will be back for sure.
So tasty! Always delicious food with friendly service in a lovely setting.
Top notch sushi as always tonight. No where else comes close!
Well worthy of 5 Stars....Enjoyed a really beautiful fresh and tasty lunch....Staff are all really friendly and the service was perfect, Can't wait to come back and try lots more dishes...Thank you xxx
Best Japanese food in Norwich, cool and authentic atmosphere 🇯🇵🇯🇵🇯🇵
Fab tasty, fresh. An explosion of flavours on your taste buds. We won't leave it so long till the next time. Ash & Trish
Myself and my husband came here for my birthday and it did not disappoint! It was our first time visiting this restaurant and the service and food did not fail to impress. The food was fresh and served hot and service was very quick. Being lovers of the Japanese cuisine, all the food we had (seafood tempura, takoyaki, Tonkotsu ramen and unagi donburi) were faultless and unbelievably delicious. I had ordered the ramen and the broth was absolutely drool worthy and having tried my husband’s meal, the eel literally melted in your mouth. I really really recommend this place if you like this type of food. We will 100% visit here again.
Food was super high quality.
Everything down to the strength and temperature of the green tea was perfect.
Sashimi quality was great and eel nigiri had amazing flavour.
Service was great, staff are very friendly.
No real complaints or faults.
Was looking for ages for a great ramen place near us, found Soyokaze on google search.
We were not disappointed! Great atmosphere, friendly staff, delicious food! From starters to mains we really can't fault it. Definitely recommended.
Amazing gem of a place. The food was delicious and would highly recommend the ramen. Great variety of dishes and sushi. The sake was lovely too. Staff super friendly and the whole atmosphere was perfect.
Update: been again for lunch and it was also amazing. Had the pork katsu which came with mizo and rice. So so nice. The pork was tender and delicious. Had a lovely pot of green tea with it
Delicious sushi - very fresh and well made, quite a nice selection too, including eel. Friendly staff. Cosy place with nice window seats for those eating alone, offering upstairs seating too. My only criticism would be that maybe the green walls could be decorated more because otherwise they're quite bland.
Expensive but not too expensive, and besting in quality some other places in Norwich (haven't tried Shiki yet). I've seen that they offer lunch menu for a decent price; definitely worth having it if you're in town between 12:00 and 14:30.
This place is a Norwich treasure. A superb slice of authentic Japan through familiar and accessible food. I eat here regularly for lunch. The chef(s) are trained in Japan, or at least in the traditional manner and produce reliably high quality food from what are clearly superior ingredients. I have had Japanese food my whole life and lived in Japan, so finding a place like this was brilliant, but a total newbie or nervous eater would have no problem here. It is the sort of restaurant that would draw a huge following in the middle of any big global city. The price is correct for the years of training, location, and quality of produce. The proof is the quality of the food.
Very cosy and authentic. Expect fresh fish that is perfectly rolled and full of flavour. Staff were friendly and service was quick. Some more choice of ramen would be nice but otherwise a well balanced menu for all. Would recommend.
great food & atmosphere! Went for dinner - big dishes range about £16-18; or small dishes for cheaper. I got tempura and some sushi and it was delicious. Worth going during lunchtime as they have a cheaper lunch menu.
The food was delicious 😋 I had the prawn tempura to start, the ramen noodle soup and a green tea ice cream to finish (it was a lot of food!).
Will come again for sure, thanks 😊
Absolutely loved this place. A real hidden gem in the centre of Norwich. Feeling spontaneous on a Friday evening. I called half an hour before to see if they could accommodate my wife and I for dinner. The staff were very helpful and friendly and they managed to squeeze us in at the last minute. The food is absolutely amazing and very reasonably priced.
We opted to share a mix of various small plates and everything was delicious, well presented and served promptly.
The drinks offering is decent so my wife opted to try a glass of the Plum wine while I stuck with the familiar Sapporo. We were so blown away by the plum wine we decided to share a bottle. It is the perfect drink to have whilst savouring the delicate flavours of the food, a wonderful balance of dry, sweet, tangy and fresh. The staff were exceptionally friendly and efficient. We will be returning again in the very near future.
Had the BEST lunch here today. The service was great- really friendly waitresses who were happy to recommend their favourites, accompanied by a really chill atmosphere.
The food was incredible- I had the chicken gyozas followed by the spicy salmon teriyaki, which came with a miso starter, and rice and salad on the side. Really filling and great value for money.
I can’t wait to come back!
Authentic Japanese food
They’re not offering any sushi anymore but some extra vegetarian options have been added to the menu.
Highly recommend the Teriyaki tofu steak. Soft silken tofu coated in crispy skin. Perfect with the teriyaki sauce. The stir-fry vegetables are the extra plus so you don’t have to order a vegetable side.
Friendly staff and comfortable environment with Japanese decor.
Even though they were busy, and warned of a delay in service - we were well looked after, and it didn't feel slow at all. The food tasted so so good, and feels well priced. Definitely would go back.
Flippin well yummy!!!! Nice restaurant, friendly and helpful staff, and incredible food. Recommendation: veggie volcano rolls :-)
Fast and polite service, had tonkotsu ramen, takoyaki, ebi ten roll, personally I found the octopus in the takoyaki really chewy and I wasn't a huge fan of the ramen as it was very one note and bland to my taste, plus the protion size wasnt too big for the price. but my partner enjoyed though so it might be just me.
I was craving for something warm and soupy and Asian and this came highly recommended on Google maps. It truly didn’t disappoint! I had ramen and I must say the broth was cooked in a very authentic way, the way Japanese ramen should taste like, with bones cooked over a long period of time and ramen noodles in the perfect right texture! It wasn’t too salty and honestly rather bland which is perfect for me as I usually eat rather bland food. I really enjoyed the ramen. The pork katsu was also perfectly done. Even the side salad is done the right way. I thought the chefs must be Japanese but to my surprise, the waiting staff told me they are Hungarians. Well done Chefs! I’m voting this as the best Japanese restaurant in Norwich!
This is a very popular place to eat !
It’s a really fab Japanese. Food is utterly delicious. We had a selection of hot and cold dishes . All really great - The sashimi was particularly tasty. Would thoroughly recommend
Lovely and decent food, the taste brings back memories from Japan! Cheers for the Ramen.
