Smash Patty Brixton in Lambeth

Had a lovely evening with my fiancée in this restaurant. The menu is absolutely exquisite. The style of cuisine (11-course omakase) allows for a variety of exotic flavours & expensive proteins to be savoured. Just our kind of meal. Please enjoy the photos below, which cover just a fraction of the entire omakase. The menu was worth every penny. Hannah provides a nice Japanese styled décor, with a very relaxing & feel-at-home style. Attention to detail goes as far as provided baskets for personal belongings and bags, and warm damp napkin-cloths tableside. It was also to our liking that an open view of a part of the kitchen was provided, allowing connection with the staff. The service was really good, though some small etiquette improvements could be made, should you care about this. Small malus point is the access to the toilets, which seems to be shared with other restaurants in the building. I would eat here again in a heartbeat on my next visit to London. The restaurant does not yet have a Michelin Star, but it should soon follow. I'm confident of that.

Food was delicious as always, great quality and prepared quickly. The tuna revolution is amazing and the sushi is affordable. Unfortunately, we were let down by the drinks. My cocktail took a long time to come and tasted watery. I’m unsure if it was always watery or whether it had been sat for a while and the ice had melted, but it tasted like water with a bit of flavouring. I didn’t send it back at the time, which for £9 I should’ve. When I reached out to give the restaurant feedback I didn’t receive a response.

We had a wonderful dining experience at Ichi Sushi in the Park Westminster Hotel. The food was excellent, and my family thoroughly enjoyed it. Jasha, our server, was exceptional—attentive and professional, ensuring we were well taken care of. The service and food exceeded our expectations, and we look forward to returning soon!

We recently hired a sushi chef, and the experience exceeded all expectations. From the first course to the last, every dish was a work of art—both in presentation and flavor. The chef's skills and attention to detail were immediately evident, as was his dedication to using only the freshest, highest-quality ingredients. His ability to engage with guests and make them feel part of the culinary experience added a unique, personal touch. Hiring this sushi chef was one of the best decisions we made, and we highly recommend his services for anyone looking to elevate their dining event. Truly exceptional!

Will man in intimer Atmosphäre einen langen Abend voll kulinarischer Genüsse verbringen, dann geht man nicht zu Hikari. Hier herrscht nämlich Kantinenatmosphäre: großer Raum, eher laut, insgesamt sauber und aufgeräumt. Allerdings dürften die wenigsten Kantinen eine derart umfangreiche Speisekarte haben: Nudelgerichte, Reisgerichte, Suppen, Donburi, Sushi und mehr. Wenn man Zeit hat, kann man hier eine kleine kulinarische Rundreise durch Asien erleben, ohne von seinem Stuhl aufstehen zu müssen. So viel Zeit hatten wir aber nicht; daher traf es sich gut, dass es der Bedienung ähnlich ging. Wir bestellen rasch hausgemachten Eistee und geeiste Litschi in Sirup sowie als Vorspeise vegetarische Gyoza. Die wurden ohne Verzögerung gebracht, waren warm, kross und offenbar frisch zubereitet. Wir hatten nichts zu klagen. Viel Zeit dafür wäre aber ohnehin nicht gewesen, denn die Hauptgerichte waren schon da, als wir gerade die letzten Reste Gyoza herunterspülten (eine Karaffe Leitungswasser gab es gratis). Auf dem Teller in der zweiten Runde: Chicken Katsu Curry und vegetarisches Pad Thai. Letzteres war würzig, Ersteres knusprig und wurde mit reichlich Sauce serviert – keine Haute Cuisine, vielleicht auch keine ›taste sensation‹, wie auf der Website angekündigt, aber gutes, leckeres Essen. Die rund 25 Pfund auf der Rechnung gingen für Londoner Verhältnisse völlig in Ordnung. Und dank der günstigen Lage an der U-Bahn-Haltestelle Lambeth North (Bakerloo Line) ist man so schnell weg, wie man bedient wurde.
